dignity of labour

hi friends! Love!
how do you do? Im taking up a topic relavant throughout the world, specially to India.
what do you think when you hear household work? more importantly how people react to the
word " servant"?

Though India ( BHARAT) can claim to have a GDP growth rate of above 8. Sending GSLV into
space, Nuclear energy from Thorium, expanding megalopolis, does it really respect Labour
specially done through hands directly without any modern gadgets. like Cooking in not so,
elite resturants ( Dhabas), a young child, working as a delivery boy from our colony;s grocer
and most important household helpers ( proudly called SERVANTS/naukar/naukarani).

The point Im coming to is the sheer lack of respect for any manualwork amongst Indians & Dignity
of labour. whether the the person who sweeps the road, or who collects garbage ( ineffect helping
our home clean) or toilet cleaners , specially in 2 nd classs wities & towns, a bit less in metros.

The scant respect shown by our Doctors at a prestigious medical institute by brooming the road
during a strike against the govt. of India's decision , shows their insentivity towards the basic
dignity or the lack of it, shown to their own staff who cleans the hospital & patients.

Recently a "crime" committed by a 10 yr old domestic servant ( she applied lipstick), which could
have been passed with laughter or may be mild admonish was excuse enough to beat her,
bound her, left to bleed to death. what RESPECT? to labour ,a CHILD and a future WOMEN.

This provoked me to think & write this. please share your thoughts. some sensitivity towards
our "Domestic Servant" (in another paralance , who needs to be domesticated/civilised
, as an animal would be) may emerge or may be a movemnet.

waiting for your humane replies
cheers!

infinity, formlessness

Love!
The forms of existence are finite- all forms
to have a form means to be finite.
But existence is infinite
bcoz only the formless (nirankar) can be infinite
and existence is formlessness,
that is why , it can take all forms

Life &Security

Love!
There is no security in life,
because life cant exist except as insecurity-
that is why the more secure one is
the less alive one becomes. Death is complete security,
So never seek security
bco'z you are seeking death.

To live totally and in ecstasy, never demand security
Accept insecurity blissfully
and when you accept it
then you will know that it has a beauty of its own.

Trust Doubt & Atheism

dear friends,
The spirit of questioning has always been promoted in India & its religion & culture. Iin form of discussions, direct questioning of established facts and paths and comparison. so i welcome you all to start a discussion on this very topic. Doubt here doesnt mean unfaith , but the courage to question. It also doesnt apply to man's trust on man. this is the context. Love Pranay

LOVE.
Atheism is the first step towards theism,
and a must.
If you havent been through the fire of atheism,
you will never know the light of theism.
If you havent the true strength to say No
your YES will always be impotent
So I am glad you are an atheist-
something that can be said only by a theist.

So I say:Go deeper into atheism,
Superficiality wont do
so dont just think atheism, live it-
and it will ultimately lead you to god.
Atheism isnt it,
it is just a doubting.
Doubt is good but it isnt it.

Actually doubt is a search for trust.
So go on, make your journey,
for the path to truth starts with this doubt.
Doubt is sadhna (meditation)
because doubt eventually exposes the incontestable truth.

Inside the seed of doubt is the tree of trust,
so if you plant the seed of Questioning
and work on it
You are bound to harvest trust.
And beware all religions!
Only religions obstruct the true path of religion
