We talk to heroes in unsaid words ..sometimes unsung heroes are. . cause history is written by those who are able to survive it and the martyr is either glorified or forgotten.Never a true tale spoken never a true confession made but today we talk of a different world one of altruism as its base.
We have been taught to be negative and believe that altruism is the higest virtue,contradiction it seems,we think it wrong to certain thnigs even though we haven't anaylsed them at all.We understand synchronization ,but our thoughts are random.The human mind tendency is to be selfish, charles darwin in his treatise on Evolution of species pointed that selfish chromosome will survive in the long run and the heroes of today become extinct.Though we still see altruism alive and flurishing though in selfish domain.We call it selfaltruism, do we really understand self altruism or not.
Let me consider the Indian Philosphy..
be free from personal bias ..,we are taught act without desire or greed and we become free from the corruption of action.,action free from desire..,action is action but what is free from desire its inaction ..
the non doer does not ..
the knowledge the fire of knowledge burms ambition greed desire,temptation anger sorrow gain loss..
this is the life of a person such a person life is an offering to god.
what is offering..
some people offer money some offer action..
when somebody makes his work his actions his penance then his life becomes an offering..
but the best is knowledge the offering in knowledge.. because its is knowledge which differentiates between good and bad,desireless action ..
to be continued
