Religion is an irony in today's society
K Ritesh *
It is much easier to perceive then to imply on some things which we desperately want. What that turns out more than a felony in this world now a days is that, even the idea being simple is being defined as an act of irony to be precise. It is not I, that gives the much needed ramification but the great wisdom of mankind has shown the light of its definition.
To give us the picture of its identification let say e.g. a man unaware of how should be dress in a particular event or an introvert or a later bloomer etc. is not to be necessary despise upon, he can be a victim of his own upbringing or his ignorance. At least some amount of parity has to be given in this regard as far as ignorance is concern. Sometimes 'ignorance can never the less be bliss ', where the wear and tears of time has spurted its iniquitousness in it.
A man known to be incongruous, which most people say doesn't necessarily have to be exemplified. He can be one normal human being, not like a kind of acme, but someone who is nudging by a primo genitive society. In a time where generations are not in cognizance with each other, it is really easy to be theoretical then to be practical.
A common genesis or credence can aggravate the exposure of some upfront to be ghastly. So, in the idea of having different religion and deciding the fate of a person even before he or she is born is simply beyond horrors of the unthinkable. Even paradigm of a dogmatic Victorian society may have parallaxes in its structure compare to the idea of a novel enthusiast.
Instances that are whimsical convey more relativity than things that are accurate. Because we are humans, we really like to contemplate life with a well supply of consequences based on 'all is well that ends well' or 'happy ever after'. Therefore rather than a realistic illustration I am giving the notion based on uncanny experiences. Being human without the idea of belonging to a religion, is a gift with an unreasonable intensity of divinity so accept it for your own sake. Sometimes it takes more than what we are to sustain hope and expectations. Relish simplicity in thy name.
'Enigma Of Cultural Differences'
Religion, as far as I am concerned, is all about being in control or organised. It doesn't signify or satisfy anyone being ambrosial or above any other human behaviour. We always tend to go back to our old instincts, which is why 'some' wise man invented 'an idea' of putting us together. With time we evolved, rectifying things, mending or galvanizing our own ways or characteristics, making ourselves more humane. But as time goes by, the interest of our kind become more and more mysterious. We become more concerned about 'DIVISION AND DOMINION', thereby affecting every aspect of peace and affection.
Mulling over 'DIVISION AND DOMINION' made us more prone to hatred and violence. Unfortunately, we could not control the alarming instincts leading to a series of collateral damage now. Some may not agree but, don't you think, whatever problem we are facing now a day is related to religion? Religion based on division, or created to belittle certain sections of a society, is what I talking about. So to put an end to all what should be done?
Beauty and its beast!
What is that makes us beautiful? Does it have to be through our own eyes or have to wait for others to decide? Or is it really necessary to express our own self in an idea of being accepted? Beauty is a dogma with a dose of complementary ideas rather than being ubiquitous. Through Shakespeare, 'beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder', which I feel, has been define as predilection rather than pragmatic now a days. The question is of which some may not agree is that why it has to be defining by a common approval rather than inherent self?
For those who have to rely on things which I don't promote I am initiating an idea or a hypothesis which we all can apply in order to promulgate our ostensible self. It is not mandatory but compulsory for someone who cannot at all define itself in the eyes of others (who live for others to say). Why someone has to put a farce where even the approach of thinking is so easy.
If the so called power of religion is strong why can't it promote the basic principle of beauty? Why it couldn't unite everyone based on the foundation of inner beauty, even though they claim to promote so. Is there a solution to make us believe that irrespective of looks it could be exemplified by anything?
What is the alternative?
I would say education with a purpose. We have been promulgating the idea of being learned or educated, but the intensity it needs to bring fruitful results for the society is undoubtedly below par. It's a must for our society now, a thing which we can't avoid at all. Even in our locality I find lots of children without proper education. And I know people would give diverse excuses for this, but what I am trying to say is that they could at least utilize few options they have.
I strongly request every parent in our society to make education mandatory, make their children go to schools at any cost. They may not get government jobs or become doctors or engineers (which most people in our society expects), but their approach towards life, their power of thinking will be different; will be able to reason their actions etc.
Education is not about becoming MPSC officers, doctors or engineers only it is something which makes us more humane, which decides our future course of action etc. so, please realised the importance of it. Education alone differentiates man from animals, so let's utilize the will-o'-the wisp still left in us to decide the future of Manipur.
Amen!
