మరో ఉదయం

పున్నమి రాత్రి తారలన్నీ అలిగిన వేళ
గుబురు చెట్లు గాలికి కదలి వయ్యారం పోతుంటే
పచ్చని ఆకులు పరవశించి తాళం వేస్తుంటే
స్వర్గమే పైరగాలిఅయి నన్ను చుట్టివేసి
ఓల లాడిస్తూ నన్ను మైమరిపించింది
మరల కళ్ళు తెరచి చూద్దునా
ఎరుపెక్కిన అకాశం
తారలన్ని మాయం భయపడి
వెచ్చదనం పులుముకున్న పైరగాలి
తమ నీడను వెతుకులాడుతూ గుబురు చెట్లు
మరో ఉదయం కర్తవ్యం గుర్తు చేస్తూ

Response to "If you take away RAMA and Hinuism from india all that left will be ashes"

dear ashok,
Shut your mouth and stop suporting the stupid statement the congress government is making.All congress leaders are licking sonias feet ,just because they want to be in power.If you are a real hindu protest it ,I dont mean you to support BJP or RSS but atleast save your individuality.If you take away RAMA and Hinuism from india all that left will be ashes

Above are the amusing comments left by some anonymous reader to my previous post about Ram and my support to UPA for issuing such statement. I am a Hindu by birth but I am not very proud to be called one, because the purpose any religion is to unite people and make their lives more enjoyable. I bet Hinduism was doing the same and is intended to do the same now, but we divided our religion into multiple casts and even barred some of the casts from entering temples. I reckon for any religion temple is a place to show your unity and show your goodness to the world, there every one should be equal which is not true in our temples. If any hindu temple is not restricting people based on their cast, they are dividing them based on their financial capacity( The best example is TTD).

Coming to these comments "If you take away RAMA and Hinuism from india all that left will be ashes", I really don't know what to say about these comments, because the comment itself is a big joke. Let me explain. Even considering Mr. Ram existed and he was a good king, what have we learned from him except making him a political figure and destroying integrity of this country over his temple. If Mr. Ram was the person, people had described him, he would never accept anything like this to happen in this country, he might have rubbished Ram Sethu issue even he had built it him self. Ultimately the goal of any good king is to give good to people and his country.

I still stick to my opinion about the government's short lived claim. It's bad that they had to eat their words over this issue. I repeat my statement that "Hinduism is not a religion, its a way of life". All the hue and cry over Ram Sethu is a political gimmick and its not at all an issue. We have much bigger problems to solve in this country like education and child labor. Let me conclude this post by saying, "I am hindu and I will be an hindu for my life treating Hinduism as a way of living life".

Govt says no proof Ram existed

This is a most welcoming course of action taken by this government. I really appreciate UPA government for showing their guts by issuing this statement and hope supreme count will also support and appreciate this. Now coming to the RSS and co. I hope they stick to the statement "Hinduism is not a religion its a way of living" issued by Mr. Sudarshan(RSS chief), I was and I am in total agreement with his statement. Hope RSS and co. will come to their senses and will not do anything to retaliate actions taken by government. If they are still dumb and want to retaliate, I beg them to choose something else other than blocking roads to show their opposition in this matter.

Madness and Belief

I believe there is a very thin line between madness and a strong belief. I came to this conclusion after seeing today's events, where BJP/VHP literally stopping the nation by making a big issue about Ram Sethu a water merged structure, which people believe was built by Mr. Ram a king in ancient times and now treated as god in this country and political parties get elected using his name.

In our country every one looks for a conflict to come on to roads, it may be political party or some group of people, we forgot any other meaningful way to resolve conflicts. Every time this thing happens I try to understand and give a rational explanation to myself but so far I never been able to convince myself. Every time such things happen supreme court asks government about the action taken on the political parties or people who made all this mess and caused loss to nation. I don't remember seeing any response or action from government. The funny thing in this whole matter is some parties (left parties) argue that its their right to do so. I wonder what kind people we are having as leaders in this country, I reckon most of them deserve to be treated for mental disorders if they are not to be put in jail.

నేను సిద్దం

స్వేచ్చ పొంది అరవై ఏళ్ళు అయిందని
గుండెలు విరుచుకొని నవ్వు పూసుకొని
వెలిగిపొతున్నామని మనమే గొప్పని
డాబుచేసి డప్పుకొట్టుకొంటిమి
ఏమి సాదించాం అసలు?
ఎటుచూసినా బానిసత్వమే
భావ దాస్యం జెండాల వాళ్ళది
వాటికే దాసులు పీఠం ఎక్కినవారు
వారి తప్పులను అనుభవిస్తూ జనం
ఎవరి కోసం ఈ ఎదురు చూపులు?
ఎవరు వచ్చి ఉద్దరిస్తారని?
మనకు మనం చేసుకున్న మొసంతో
అరవై ఏళ్ళూ గడిపేసాం
మేల్కోవాల్సిన సమయం వచ్చింది
ముందుకురకాల్సిన సమయం వచ్చేసింది
నేను సిద్దం, సిద్దమా మరి మీరంతా
