We have been enjoying all the pleasures provided by the technology. Everyday we keep on noticing some new inventions, we even hear rumors about few advanced technologies and we may never know when those dream will come true. But here we are enjoying happy moments of life. Our life now are not without problems as well, there are mere day to day problems like, daily power cuts, money inflation and problem of survival.
if i take a deeper dive into these problems and see their origin. They were not something which existed long back. The problem of power cut were not faced by ancient people becoz electricity was not invented those days. There were no money inflation problem as there were abundant resources available. There were survival problem but that's not because of the inflation and society but for war. I didn't meant to say that there weren't problems in ancient days all i meant to say is that they had problem of their time which they were facing happily and lived freely.
so what caused all these problems? when i asked this question myself there were lot of answers revolving around and first thing came to my mind was whom to accuse and how to accuse. I never realized the problem that resided in me. we people complain about many things and everyone and always think that what we do is correct and what we understand is the world but in real the world extends way far beyond our knowledge our understanding is not even one millionth part of it. we have lost many of our talents, race, art and we call our self as an icon for culture when we our self has been spoiling it.
my recent readings depicted this kind of situation in ancient history. It was about Rama son of Jamadagni (Parasurama). It was said that he exterminated Kshatriya's from this world 7 times. The times that earth underwent bereft of Kshatriya's were very much bitter and it is really hard for me to reproduce here. It is always said that the duty of a Brahman is to perform sacrifices and that of Vaishyas is to increase the wealth and that of Kshatriya is to protect them. There is one another race called sudras who are meant to serve the other three. In the absence of Kshatriya's there will be no one to protect. Not only that ancient sages has written vedas and sastras about what each kind of people have to do and the qualities they should posses. A kshatriya is one who not only protects people but also lives according to that standard.
Its very hard to see one such kind of person now a days whats even hurting is that whenever a person is engaged in fighting or even in quarrel people started believing that he is bad this gets worse when they come to know that if he has taken life of a person. But in ancient days that was the duty of Kshatriya we can even say that we are respecting people who serve for this country in military and police departments but in real we are kind of step away from these people we do not know these people we always step aside budge for anything for peaceful life. we even lose our self-respect.
Pride and Honor used to be our address once. self-respect is what we live for and look at what we have become. very few people i would say that still lives or at-least try to achieve those. what has happened ? and what has changed us completely?. Every one in this world lives based on their belief whether he is good or evil he will be believing something and will be living for it. Something has happened which changed our entire belief we are now doubting anything and everything that is around us. we our self has lost our trust and we are not trustworthy any more. Everyday our belief is changing as we are not living for the belief we are living for survival as we started to believe "Do anything for survival, As long as i live i don't care anybody doing anything and i will do anything to live the life better".
Many people don't even realize it. there is no one to protect the virtue and modesty. Everything is dead and buried as the Kshatriya's has been exterminated.
