Bulls for wisdom

Animals have always taken spiritual roles in most of the religions world-wide; some are portrayed as divine and revered while some are believed to be maleficent but whatever the case humans have always shared a beneficial relationship with these creatures that do not speak of which evolutionarily some are more ancient than even humans, on a civilizational perspective we have learned, farmed, transported through them before the machines took over and we have even satisfied our hunger; we are on a verge were because of us these ancient tutors are on a verge of extinction because of our greed and impractical and unsustainable  solutions to our mostly stupid lives. Now may I come to my point, many won’t see or understand this situation because of their pocketed lives but the large minded would consider the possibility of all-inclusiveness.

Now to meet spirituality and my point; Rishabha or the Bull is a mighty icon in many religions; in Jainism it is the symbol of their 1^st Tirthankara, Bible is the abbreviation of Bi-Bull meaning the two bulls and in Hinduism it is the Vahana of Shiva and represents “DhaRma” itself which is the most important aspect of human life. The 4 legs of the bull are considered as the 4 pillars of Dharma namely Cleanliness, Austerity, Mercy and Truthfulness; the hindu scriptures proclaim that the Universe is preserved with Dharma and in this way it becomes that cause where the entire manifestation is being centered around and a factor that even predated the current universe, manvantara, yuga or whatever name which you seem comfortable with; but in Hinduism The yugas or cycles of time of which the comparison to us makes us so miniscule is said to be a bull. In the first yuga the bull stands on all 4 legs ie. Cleanliness, Austerity, Mercy and Truthfulness; And in the last of the yugas that is the present Kali Yuga the bulls legs are diminished to just a single leg of truthfulness and in Kaliyuga Dharma relies solely on Truthfulness and Kali Purusha is depicted as a person beating up this remaining leg of DhaRma.

Now to its universality; The religions whatever they be, had an original intention of protecting this bull of DhaRma and making this cosmic DhaRmic bull rejuvenate through numerous means abnali-Yuga; in short the Bull is to be worshipped.

Some Spoon Feeding

1947, August 15; at the stroke of midnight India breathed in new air of liberation and freedom from all tyranny it faced; Citizenship was proclaimed not just from the clutches of colonization but freedom was from the adhinivesham that was imposed on her from the age of Mughals; the struggle that our veer freedom fighters fought was real but was it the same with the freedom obtained?

Yes the struggle was real there was beauty in the nation, there was serenity, here was farming and most importantly there was a soul of innocence to it all; then post Independence there was Freedom, new laws, civic rights and equality on papers. Where do we stand now? Resources depleted and set to wrong use, a complete whimsical show of poor governance and law implementation; and exactly where do we stand and what are our moral grounds as of a nation? the concept of equality remains in papers without any actual civic sense or responsibility amongst citizens and what exactly is modern law if not a mere crime punishment mechanism and the rest moral obligations and what exactly is the Govt.’s mental policy of ushering and boosting the mental obligations of the citizens? India upon its Independence with cheap personal and political Vendetta’s forget about its rich heritage and culture and even chipped on it. Actually the fact is that the new formed Govt. was no more than a burial of all those that persisted ethnically to this part of the world to a superficial equality propagandato be digested by every idiot  not even looking at people’s faces.

The modern Indian political context is very hard to understand; there is casteism and also pretty much everything that are a hindrance to a healthy growth; why don’t the authorities chuck out everything and decentralize each and everything? Just over throw the concept of citizenship and impose the old Chaturvarnya system back in that way every individual will be able to enjoy unrestricted things within their own communities ; or else chuck the whole past of India rely solely on modern western education and western Indices of growth make India an America see anything is possible all the change makers needs to do is take moral stands rather than just vouching for moral sides; This process is genuinely not a one man show to begin and end with one person let communities combine towards a single growth oriented goal. Let there be arts, architecture, philosophies, perspectives, intellectual debates and most importantly let the nation have a strong will to it all…It doesn’t matter who wins or looses because its like asking which is your favourite colour from the rainbow; things has to move towards progress and to the right direction. Victory is for all because it is within, it is liberation and ultimately nothing else matters because human and earthly conditions pertain whatever else changes.
