Mankind 'ritualistically' !
We all know that the dynamic cultural diversity makes India what it is today. Our rich mythological past adds to the diversity and deeply rooted religious sentiments among people. From businesses to charity and everything in between before and after that pretty much happens in the name of religion. People are out on a limb to please their Gods and Goddesses, but then what happened to BEING HUMAN.... no no guys I am not referring to the famous charitable organization started out by a renowned Bollywood celebrity, but about respecting people by and large.

I recently stumbled upon a poem penned by Roger McGough, 'Three Rusty Nails'. The poem aptly factuates intensions of a human being in the 21st century. The poem mirrors facts and tunes mankind to a pourpose of looking within themselves rather than being listless robots aimlessly sauntering in secrch of inner peace.
What has made us who we are today? We have ruthlessly divided mankind in the name of belief. Our religion today demarcates us financially, socially and economically giving impetus to unending apathy. The rules are condemning man to assume that they are not equal in the eyes of the lord. This difference is just one of its kind.
The economical divide is even worse. If you are not wealthy enough, you do not have the power, and hence you cannot conduct any pops religious ritual or perhaps are given the last preference for any important ritual in your place of worship. This ridiculous rule applies to people of both the higher and the lower classes.
in the name of religion we mindlessley slaughter the innocent, and rob people of emotion bliss, joy and happiness that they have endlessly prayed for over the years. Knowingly or unknowing we are robbing people of a bright future . Have we the right to rid people of their bright future just to please our Gods and Goddesses? Well perhaps consider a suggested misinterpretation on the path of mankind.

The human mind has lost its ability to think of consequences in the long run. We think in the here and now. The future is well... Far off.
