patthar ko tootte dekha hai...

I had seen a man, in fact have been seeing a man who has lived his life with the only possessed quality 'patience' , i have also seen the impossible devastation of that patience as if he has nothing to give, not even that only possession which is no more with him. Life has many miracles in its store, some very pleasant and also some like catastrophes which come with no reason but to test your take... and you have to decide what is your take in both the conditions, how boring! boring but at least with an element of truth. I need an advice , what will be your reaction when Bapu once comes to you with the tears in his eyes and pleads "son, i forgot the meaning of ahimsa and if you have some idea about it then please teach me, i am in search of a teacher". It may be seeming very absurd, too much of hypothetical but it does have some significance,to me at least. Love is not something the whole young generation is running after, i don't believe it. It is very universal, please don't define it. You may cry on the death of your puppy and may just move to the next page of a newspaper reading after hundreds of death in the Assam bomb blast with a critic smile on face, isn't it a brutal truth of the most intelligent creature so called 'human'. so if anybody is so much interested in defining word like love please think over. I have seen someone smiling in a situation when his most beloved one is waiting for the death each moment, i have seen him fighting with the death on behalf of that beloved without a single tear just because
he was knowing this was the best he could do but tell me how will i react when i see him crying like a child in the last phase of life... do you feel still feel like Bapu cant ask that question...
