We are not one but two

The ideologies of joint family and having multiple children have perished and gave way for nuclear family. Now it is the time of nuclear family, and the slogan followed is hum ek hume ek. The ever growing population and inflation have forced the married couple to have a single child policy whether it is male or female.

Intangible


Human service is always intangible. Often we try to buy the intangible human services with our material commodity as well as our money. 

An art is always intangible but when that is sold in a particular price we challenge its intangibility and make it into a mere commodity

“To that heaven let my country awake”



Academic exercises can, at best, suggest solution but never it can be put into practice. Handful of things first come in the form of theory and later when it is put in practice many a time it remains as theory without any pragmatic value. Indian constitution remains as a theory rather a well written document.

Violence against men


Newton, in his law of motion, has clearly stated that every action has got equal and opposite reaction. I think his law of motion does not exist in the world of physics alone it is applicable in our real life as well. There were times when violence against women was prominent, now it has an opposite reaction wherein there is violence against men is happening.

Everything won’t fetch its price


How wonderful it would have been if anything and everything we do fetch its price and how happy would have been people in the world. If that were the case there would not have been any repetition of the same action and lot of time and energy could be saved for better performance.

Always there a better other


It is very stupid to have a notion that we are something great in our own world . We become something in the absence of something greater or the greatest. There is always a better other (others) existing. Many a time the better other is absent or asleep. There is always a potential threat of a better other in our life.

Weakness is strength


In Shakespearian Hamlet, Hamlet says “Fragility thy name is woman,” yes, the fragility makes woman what she is. Weakness and strength are both paradoxical words, it may not go hand in hand giving a meaning. However, it is an attempt to use both paradoxical words and establish a significant hypothesis.

White collar job

Whatever job we do, at the end of the day it is to get paid and earn our daily bread whether it is white collar job or manual labour. We label jobs in different categories such as sophisticated jobs and cheap jobs. We always wish to have easy going jobs at the same time viewed as dignified by the society.

Right and wrong are relative

In the absolute sense we can’t say that a particular thing is right and the other is wrong, both right and wrong are relative. The right and the wrong depend on the intentionality of the person, situation and geographical territory. That is the very reason we don’t have a universal code of ethics or laws.

Growing girl child is a bad 'business'

If at all we can tell that growing a child is a business (duty or obligation), I would say that growing girl child is a bad business to do. Having only girl children is considered to be omen.  Any married couple would wish to have a boy child for them, because having a boy is considered
