Questions to ponder over this dushhera.

WHAT IS TRUTH one that is spoken loudest or one that is spoken by the majority.

Does there is always a VICTOR'S TRUTH.

KNOWLEDGE CAN ALSO BRING ARROGANCE.
Does a women always has to be bear the responsibility of being cause of a war whether its Ramayana or Mahabharata?
Do we always need a hero to save us from evil .Can't we be a hero ourselves?
Doesn't we have a Raavana,Megnad,Ram,Laxman,Hanuman infact every character of Ramayana inside ourselves?
Why inside our heart Raavana wins the war every time?
Why we put our heroes on high pedestal, we rever him but never try to follow his ideals?
Who lost more sita or mandodari?
Who was better son Ram,Meghnad ,Lav -Kush?
Who was better brother Laxman,Vibhishan, Bharat,Sugriv,Kumbhkaran?

Not another soldier died....


I seldom confess my inner desires.But here i confess one "to make it to headlines of newspaper".

I always try looking for opportunities that will throw my name to the newspaper headlines,i try to make people attend me,listen to me, praise me,but alas destiny always cheats me.While starting this blog also this inner desire drove me.I often think ways to increase visitors to my blog,persuade people to follow this blog and what not.

A recent news gave me a lesson ,but i really didn't appreciate this way of teaching by the destiny.A friend of me at my engineering college Amit Thenge gave supreme sacrifice of his life for the nation.(read the story at http://www.groundreport.com/World/Supreme-sacrifice-of-Major-Amit-Kumar-Thenge-durin_1/2925898)

I learnt that "its not you who chooses the opportunity in life but its the life that chooses you for an opportunity".Maj. Amit was indeed the chosen one.When my batch mates were looking for greener pasture in the time of recession and swiftly vanishing bulging packages.When it was a sign of prestige to flaunt you pay package and foreign assignment.Amit chose to serve Indian Army, may be it a matter of job security,but still i think his destiny was already written in golden letters.Life has chosen him as a hero.

At college Amit was not a regular guy,its not a rhetoric but i actually mean it another way.He was not one of those cool studs of engineering college who used to flaunt their expensive accessories,girlfriends,bikes or even political and influential contacts.He was less than that.He knew his background and his middle class status.He was one of those guys who are often remain unnoticed.But he had a pleasing nature ,a real bro.Electronics was his passion and he did engineering honestly.Always found either at library or among his equally brained colleagues.That's why i was often uninvited guest among his circle.If Simplicity has got a name it was Amit Thenge.In fact among persons from Chhindwara he was the most extrovert and liked one.

I still don't believe that his career took him to Army as he was most peaceful,conflict free and friendly college mate i ever remember.And the thing most surprises me is that he met death fighting.I always thought he must be somewhere in this world making computer programme or electronic gadgets(if i remember correctly he showed me his project in final years which was a computer controlled car or device.) Fighting was never his game.But destiny takes man to places he never ever thought off.Amit was destined to earn a place among Martyrs and Heroes. While he never desired but his name has made to the headlines,hall of fame,a recognition for Chhindwara ,a proud name to be associated with and most importantly a inspiration for everyone.I feel failed that my inner desire could not aimed for such thing. I feel sad about a friend whose warmth we still feel while lost his life lying cold in Kashmir.I feel unhappy that life didn't gave him a chance.I feel helpless that we as friend did nothing to spread his act of sacrifice.I feel proud that i knew him,i talked to him,i laughed with him....I feel immensely great when i tell that he rose from the anonymity and became brightest star .
