Ram a leader with anguish

Ramayana is one of the sacred mythological books for Indians. The story is about king exile and sent to the forest for 14 years and later exiling his wife from the kingdom due to the rumours about her character. When one understands the whole narrative, one recognizes that the whole story is all about how difficult is a king’s man role when compared to a common man.

Being a king of Kosala Kingdom (Ayodhya is the capital city) Ram was being in ambiguity situation 3 times-

-         Exiling from Ayodhya

-         Exiling Sita  from Ayodhya

-         Punishing Lakshman

The whole Ramayan was about a king take critical decisions and deciding between family, people and dharma.

When Dasrath(Farther of Ram) sent Ram on exile for 14years, promising him to make king after his returning. Later on the demise of Dasarath, Ram was offered to become king in between the exile period, but he was just obliged to his fathers promise and rejected the offer. This shows integrity which is the most important to any leader or king.

When people of Ayodhya doubted Sita character Ram sent her on exile since the ruling couple should be acceptable by each and every one of their subjects. Later Ram cries for love and also Ayodhya was also suffering from famine. This highlights the fact that Girls are a symbol of prosperity.

When Yama comes to Ram to remind him over his return to Vaikunth as he completed his duties, Yama meets ram and takes promise that if anyone listens to the conversation or interrupt them Ram would have to kill them. At this time sage Duruvasu, known for his anger has arrived at Ayodhya and was unrested when Lakshman barricade him. Enraged sage warned he would curse Ayodhya, where Lakshmana forgo personal interest over peoples interest he interrupted the Ram and Yama discussion. Which leads to an Ambiguity situation where Ram needs to take a decision on it, later Lakshman went into Sarayu river and give up his life.

The character Sita represents a typical Indian woman & challenges faced by them in society from ages. Women in the society are frequently questioned on their character, which happened the same with the Sita. After Ram bringing back Sita from Lanka and returned back a washerman doubted the character of Sita. Which resulted in Sita sent on exile again and later underwent a fire test in order to prove Lav Kush are their kids.

After becoming king Ram was in great anguish till the end, where he lost beloved Wife, ordered to kill his own brother for the promise made. The whole story explains how difficult it is one to be a kingsman place or a leader.

Indian Super Hero

I still remember listening to Hanuman Chalisa after watching a horror movie in the night. Hanuman is like a superman who has all the super powers like avengers characters. He is a super hero for many Childers and icon for this millennium youth. What exactly makes him so special?

 Being a millennium youth of this modern technological age I won't accept a monkey jumping to the height of sun and eating it, carrying a hill from North to south in India in a single hand. There are many other unconvincing things in Hindu mythology of Hanuman. I was brainstorming and trying to understand what message did ancestors wants to give from this character?

  The super human monkey character demonstrates that appearance isn’t everything. Hanuman expands himself from being a colossal to a tiny Lille and vice versa in the process of overpowering the demons, which explains every problem is like a big door surely there is a small key which can open it easily; find the key life is simple. He is a communication expert, who knows how to use nonverbal communication skews, when he meets Sita at Lanka immediately he offered Rama’s ring in order to clear all her doubts.

The sophisticated modern world still struggling with a virus.

In the era where technology rampant and where humans able to conquer other planets we still struggle to fight with a virus which evoked in a small town in China and suffused to various countries challenging the humans.

“Earth Provides every mans need, but not every man’s greed “– Mahatma Gandhi.

China spent millions on a shady project which succeeded to stop rains during Bejing Olympics in 2008- an example of how humans want to dominate nature. From aeon, humans were challenging nature, now nature continuously challenging us with Amazon Rain Forest fires (2019), Australian Bushfires (2019-20) and now Corona where many countries jitter.

The latest virus attack is now challenging humans in every aspect like Economic, Social, political & environment.

Its spread has left businesses around the world counting costs. Changing the lifestyles of various cultures and implanting hygiene habit along with a sensible diet. The epidemic is now weakening 2 global powers USA & China politically(there is even a hoax that China used Coronavirus to win the long going dispute US-China trade war). Nature also started to heal itself due to lockdowns in various countries.

This pandemic is no doubt creating many difficulties for people, but it is also creating business opportunities like where online classes showed an increase in trend. There are even chances of a shift in global power. Experts say Delhi might miss Smog this year due to fall in pollution levels.
