SATYAM

SATYAM-The Truth

Human life if highly valuable and great. Even God, to actualise high objectives had to opt human birth. Such a wonderful the human life is.

We have seen people who had influenced the whole universe with their unique personality. We had seen Mahatma Gandhi who lead the indian nation with the help of his mind-power. We know even Patel who was famous for his courageous heart. We all have seen NTR, who stood as a symbol for the self respect of telugu people and could come into power within a miraculous time.

Everyone, how great he or she may be, was recognised so in view of a few glorious angles or aspects of their personality. In other words, one may be highly reputed, but some day, sometime for one or other reason,may be in a different aspect, put to serious criticism. That may be because of his own fault / incidental / situational or out of time. We have seen many such reputed people even around us.

Human life is earmarked between life and death. The period between these is life. Not only this, in every aspect of life, we face dilemma....good-bad; legal-illegal; moral-immoral; dharma-adharma; peace-violence etc. Our life moves between this type of duality always. Whoever is successful in balancing these things in accordance to the time and situation, their life is considered to be successful.

But as was said already, no ones life is totally victorious and cannot be even. Why because that is decided by the duality of life. The difference between such things is very minute and delicate. The one which we feel morally correct, may not be legally fit. The one which we find legal, might be immoral to someone else. The same happens even in the case of our personal life. But there its impact is limited to our family members at large. But social and economic fields are very complicated as they are concerned with crores of people and so there the impact is multiplied accordingly. While taking decision which one to choose, there may be a mistake, knowingly or unknowingly. But its impact will definitely exist....if not today..tomorrow and if not tomorrow.. the next year. It is like a small wound to the feet, which if neglected in time may lead to amputation. It is the duty of an intellectual to realise it in time and rectify. IF necessary till such time one should halt all the activities.

But human mentality is such that he keeps on convincing him-self that its effect is not there, neither today nor tomorrow and if at all it is there, he can conceal it forever. It is like a cat closing its eyes while drinking milk. As the time passes by, the pressure of this concealing keeps on multiplying. Finally to such an extent that he has to spare all his capacities just to maintain it confidential, rather than to attend the main work. Thus the main stream of work comes to a halt. As a result it becomes uncontrollable finally. This situation is the UNCONTROLLABLE TIGER that was said to be ridden by the King..Raju for years together. Will there be any use of repentance while riding the Uncontrollable Tiger. While getting on its back, one should realise that it is a Tiger. If such a realisation is lacking in a common man..O.K.., if it faded for a short period of time, it can be understood; but he is not an ordinary man; he is King of Kings..Raa..Raaju in IT field; man of stability in all situations; a man who paved golden future for thousands of youth over number of countries.....such a great man saying that he has been riding the UNCONTROLLABLE TIGER for years together; ....and that only two options are left for him-- either to kill it or to be killed; and that having realised that he cannot kill it, it was decided to become a prey for it....is quite unbelievable and so mind-blocking. It is very sorrowful situation for lakhs of investors and thousands of employees to become victims for none of their faults, but for kings innocence. In fact this is the serious aspect of this episode due to social concern. It is the duty of the investigating agencies to find out who that TIGER is. Unfortunately if such agencies also stoop down to prove their subordination to the TIGER, then as usual the same story continues.

But in my opinion, the TIGER is nothing but the overwhelming confidence of human being. Being ignorant of ones limitations is the TIGER. Feeling.... that he can do anything; that nothing is impossible for him; that every thing can be achieved by money....is the TIGER. Ignoring our limitations; nullifying our social role and thinking that we ourselves are everything for our lives...the pride..is the root cause of our actual downfall and destruction. Money by itself is nothing. It is one of the main helping factors to achieve many of our goals. Thus it is only an instrument. But now, in illusion, man is progressing towards the instrument, but not towards the real goal. After a very prolonged pain and strain in such an illusion, he achieves something and finds it to be entirely different from the real goal. As the way is changed, the goal also changed without our knowledge. This is... NOT KNOWING THAT IT IS A TIGER, WHILE SITTING ON ITS BACK.

So, man should not forget the truth of life. He should confine himself to the limitations. Social responsibility should not be neglected. It should be accepted by heart that violation of law is an unpardonable crime. Should always keep up self-respect and should never promote shamelessness. Should accept the fact that how great one may be...cannot be an exception to law for all the time. He should be disciplined and responsible proportionate to his social status and relations. Should intelligently observe that those who are around are...the jackal, the bear,the tiger or the dog? Should not forget that his investment is the trust of lakhs of people and his skill is the spirit of thousands of youth. Each step of victory should keep him further alert and cautious.

He should act within his concerned fields and capacities. He should identify the level where he feels real satisfaction. The disturbance caused beyond that point should be identified immediately. One should try to avoid such disturbance honestly, but not to suppress or to conceal. Otherwise to limit his activities to that level. Efforts to be made to achieve further while honestly enjoying what we have achieved already. What do we have... what do we lack...what do we want...does further attempt gives real happiness without any adverse impact on the happiness of what we have now....all these questions he should ask himself. Man should make a habit to search for real happiness in him-self. Then the outward illusion cannot detrack him at all. So , he can be metured to be happy in every situation. Self analysis is the best remedy for all this. Without that everything around us is mere illusion--- illusion that we are happy. The tragedy that what we know is only today's tragedy of getting the king behind bars; but it is only the king who knows the great tragedy WHILE RIDING AN UNCONTROLLABLE TIGER FOR YEARS TOGETHER. Then, let us imagine , ...the king is really happy all these years ???
