STRANDED

 Science fiction and  mythology has always inspired me and put me in awe. The tales told to us , were they really true or what we imagine in science ,can that ever be true in the future . 

These questions always knock my mind.

Also i believe religion  a way of life , whos purpose is to   give us a benchmark morally and ethically in society . 

Anything more or anything less can lead and will lead us as a race into more division than unity.

STRANDED is a thriller with a different take..

Trust

 

Trust is the basic tenet for all relationships, so building an environment is one of the most important things one can do to create a positive work environment. It is a philosophy that must be demonstrated in everything you and your staff does. Trust is about what you say you are going to do and being who you say you are. It is about showing your staff in everything you do that you are reliable, responsible and accountable and that they can rely on you for consistency. Also, letting them know you expect the same from them. When your words and behavior are congruent you built trust. It will take some time for your staff members to learn that you are a person of your word. If they see that you are consistent you will built trust, but if they see that your word don’t match your behavior their trust in you will be destroyed. The unfortunate thing about trust is that it takes a long time to build, but is very fragile and breaks easily. Once broken, it takes an even longer time to regain and it may never be fully rebuilt. Therefore, it is of primary importance that you are careful of all your words and behavior and ensure that they are worthy of your employees trust. Even while dealing with uncomfortable situations, if you are honest and upfront it will make thing easier for everyone.

European Invasion

 Though the English Men almost destroyed the Traditional culture and treasures of India. It is to be admitted that they did contribute to build a modern India too.

The Europeans have brought and provided English education to Indians. In other words, they gave us a common language through which we interact or communicate with others all over the world and the concept of the English language in today’s world plays a very crucial role in the development of the country. 

They introduced Modern Science. It is something miraculous that a country which had been controlled and moved by some superstitious beliefs for centuries. It is also a contribution of the European invasion which introduced modern science in India.

Now India is the largest democratic nation in the world in any sense of definition and description. Thanks to the Britishers, which no can deny. As they are the ones who introduced democratic principles in the form of constitutions to India.

Britishers also gave birth and developed of Nationalism. The knowledge of the freedom struggling and fighting in different countries collected by Indians, as they started reading articles in English, gave birth to national integration and national feeling in the minds of Indians. 

The European invasion brought tens of new professions of doctors, engineers, clerks, etc. Which ultimately opened a vast world of education to the masses of India. 

The new approaches and awareness influenced the social life of Indians a lot, and the social anarchies like child marriage, sati, untouchability, etc were eradicated with the ceaseless effort rendered by leaders like Raja Ram Mohan Roy. 

The style and themes of European writers inspired the Indians a lot and they started writing different sorts of literary pieces now several Indian writers are honored by people of different nations too. 

They brought modern trends in different fields of life such as food habits, agriculture, dress code, transportation attitude towards personal as well as social life.  The Railway of India, which is now the world's largest public sector, was also introduced by Britishers. Modern administration trends brought several changes in India. It created thousands of new clericals posts that demanded more educated hands and hence it created an opportunity for mass education. 

Human Trafficking

Human Trafficking is defined as a series of crime and a grave violation of human rights. It is a process of trapping people through the use of violence deception or coercion and exploiting them for financial or personal gain. 

Slavery had existed for many years before 1200 and is a common form of everyday life worldwide. Human trafficking was first legally recognized by the term "White Slavery" in the form of sexual harassment in which a woman or a girl by the use of force, drugs, or dishonesty for sex which is unwanted by a woman or girl. 

Human trafficking is done for exploitation, which includes exploiting, men tricked into accepting risky job offers, and trapped in forced labor in building sites, farms, or factories. Women were recruited to work in private homes only to be trapped, exploited, and abused behind closed doors with no way out. 

There are three most common types of Human Trafficking are. 

Labor Trafficking – In this individuals are forced to work every single day for lower wages or even without pay, under the threat of violence and they are unable to walk away. 

Sex Trafficking – It occurs when someone uses forces and fraud to cause a commercial sex act. It is a crime where women and girls are sexually harassed by the traffickers. 

Organs Harvesting – Another recent and highly controversial occurrence involving human trafficking is the deception that results in the involuntary removal of bodily organs for transplant. 

Slavery and trafficking happen in nearly every country in the world, whether it will be a developing country or a developed. We are now living in a world where human trafficking is the fastest growing crime and it is the third-largest international crime in the world. Every year almost thousands of men women and children fall into the hands of traffickers, in their own country and abroad. Every country in the world is affected by this crime. 

People trapped by traffickers are mostly trying to escape poverty or discrimination to improve their lives and to support their families. People are forced to take unimaginable risks to try and escape from poverty, accepting dangerous or precarious job offers and they often give money to the victims in advance. When they arrive they find that the work does not exist or the situations and conditions are completely different. Their documents are often taken away and they are forced to work until their debt is paid off and they are finally trapped. 

Children are often sold or sent to areas with the promise of a better life but instead of this, they encounter various forms of exploitation. Domestic servitude places extra children from excessively large families into domestic services for an extended period of slavery. 

Other trafficked children are often forced to work in small scale cottage industries, manufacturing factories, the entertainment, and sex industries. Trafficking victims are frequently required to work for an excessive period under extremely hazardous working conditions and little or no wages. 

Sometimes they become street children and are used for prostitution, theft, begging, or the drug trade. Traffickers use blackmail, abuse, and threats to force victims to comply with their wishes in the destination country and they use multiple means to control their victims like beating, burning, rape and starvation, psychological abuse, document holding, they make victims depend on them for drugs and alcohol. 

Victims of trafficking are deeply traumatized by their experience particularly in the situation of sexual exploitation. They became distrustful and fearful of authorities which may affect their ability to seek help and support or to engage with police. 

It is the form of modern-day slavery. Trafficking in human beings is a shameful and abhorrent violation of human rights. Stand against human trafficking before it's too late.

Caste Discrimination

The caste system divides Hindus into four categories which are known as Varna System according to this these four categories are: 

Brahmin- They provide spiritual education and leadership and are known as Priest. 

Kshatriyas- They are known as Warriors and their responsibility is to protect society.

Vaisya- They are productive class landowners and Merchants.

Shudra- This is the only class who are allowed to accept any kind of employment. Commoners, Peasants, and Servants fall under this category.  

The fifth category falls outside the Varna system and consists of those known as "Untouchables" or "Dalits". There is a belief that the groups are originated from Brahma, the Hindu god creation. Thus, Brahmin represents its mouth, Kshatriyas as their arms, Vaisya is from the thigh and Shudra's are from the feet. 

This system divided people into equal and hierarchical social groups. Those are considered as "lower human beings", "Impure" and "Polluting" to other groups. 

Is the Varna System fair by dividing Hindus into hundreds and hundreds of sub caste category? 

The most ancient mention of the caste system is found in the Rig Veda, believed to be developed between 1500-800 BC. Untouchables are the main victims of this system of oppression are not even mentioned in the Vedas. 

Issues like Untouchability and Discrimination based on caste still exist in today's era especially in the rural areas and the reason behind this is the deep-rooted customs and traditions of the caste system. Not only adults and women even children are also the victims facing humiliation. Students of scheduled caste have been asked to sit on the floor or even outside the class to pursue education. 

Upper caste people considered themselves as Impure (Ashudh) when they mistakenly touched the untouchables or the things belongs to them then they necessarily cleaned themselves (Shudhikaran) with pure water known as Gangajal. Even the river Ganga is used by both the untouchables and by the Brahmins from where there they take gangajal. 

If the river is used by both how one can consider Gangajal as pure water or Dalits as untouchables?

In Hindu culture touching god's feet (charansparsh) is considered as showing gratitude towards the lord and seeking blessings (Ashirwad) from them is good and positive than why people originated from their feet are Impure or Untouchables?

Many people believe that the caste system plays a very important and crucial role to maintain the hierarchy. Which type of hierarchy is this which shows the differences among humans which is against humanity? 

The caste system is the main reason for the degradation of a large portion of the population. They were and still are treated like sub-humans. Some people regarded and abused them as crawling worms of gutters and they are born as Dalit or Harijan because they had done crimes in their previous life. No one remains Brahmin by blood nor is anyone Sudra by birth then why they are treated like animals?

Hatred has replaced the feeling of respect and sympathy amongst the member of high and low caste and this attitude develops the worst form of untouchability which pushed a larger major section of society lower than an animal. 

Those people were deprived of all privilege which was available to members of high class and was not allowed to enter the temples, ghats, wells, and schools. Thus this system cuts nearly crores of people from the mainstream of Indian social life. 

The biggest example of this is that in June 2018 the three Dalit boys were beaten stripped, beaten, and paraded naked by villagers in the state of Maharashtra for swimming in the well that belonged to an upper-caste family, police said. 

It creates political disunity and is impossible to unite them politically as the system divided the whole society into the innumerable subdivision.  It has been an obstacle to the growth of national unity in the country. It does not allow changes to be introduced in society and they are not ready to accept the changes needed for social progress due to the customs and traditions created by their castes. 

The caste system is undemocratic because it denies equal rights irrespective of their caste, creed, and color states in article 15 of the constitution. The individuals of lower castes have no opportunity for mental and physical development. Thus, this created inequality among the Hindus. 

Aren't the people of the same group creating differences amongst themselves by dividing humans based on their caste?

 पैसा अच्छा नहीं 

मगर ये ना हो 

तो वक्त बुरा हो जाता है 

पैसा अच्छा नहीं 

मगर यह ना हो 

तो आपका सबसे करीबी 

आपसे दूर हो जाता है 

पैसा अच्छा नहीं 

मगर  यह ना हो

तो शोक अधूरे रह जाते है 

पैसा अच्छा नहीं 

मगर यह ना हो 

तो सपने बिखरते नज़र आते है 

पैसा अच्छा नहीं 

मगर यह ना हो 

तो ज़िन्दगी असहाय नज़र आती है | 

 

सपना 

जब भीड़ में आप अकेले पड़ जाएं 

तो सपना कहता है 

तेरे साथ मैं हूँ ना !

जब दुःख चरम सीमा पर हो 

तो सपना कहता है 

तेरा सुख मैं हूँ ना! 

जब गरीबी के सागर में 

आप बुरी तरह फंस जाओ 

तो सपना कहता है 

तेरी नाव मैं हूँ ना!

जब हिम्मत पूरी तरह टूटती दिखे 

तो सपना कहता है 

तेरा हौसला मैं हूँ ना | 

एक रावण का संहार हुआ

 बरसों पहले एक रावण का संहार हुआ,  

पृथ्वी पर फैला हाहाकार समाप्त हुआ, 

श्री राम के हाथों एक युग का आगाज़ हुआ, 

परन्तु वह रावण सिर्फ रावण ना था, 

वह महाज्ञानी था, स्वाभिमानी था, 

पराक्रमी और शूरवीर था, 

परन्तु वर्तमान समय में रावण नए गुणों के साथ 

हमारे जीवन में प्रवेश कर गया है 

विडंबना है हम एक पुतले को फूंक कर 

खुशियां मनाते है, 

अधर्म पर धर्म की विजय का जश्न मनाते है, 

अपनी आँखों पर हाथ रख कर

झूठी जय जयकार लगाते है, 

लेकिन वह  रावण आज भी मौजूद है 

आप में मुझ में एवं संसार के प्रत्येक व्यक्ति में, 

भ्र्ष्टाचार में, बेईमानी में, 

बाल मज़दूरी में, सत्ता के बादशाहों की तिजोरियों में, 

बहन बेटियों की लुटती  आबरू में, 

परिवारों में बढ़ते क्लेश में, 

माया के मध में चूर बढ़ते इंसान के परिवेश में |
