Ideals or Idol of RAAM??

The greatest fear of a man is FEAR. The biggest enemy of a person is HIMSELF... Somewhere down the line we might find the above two statements to be true. When we do we find that this world has nothing to do with what we are and what we become.

Personifying India as a individual we find the above two statements aptly applicable. It is our own faults and our own fears that have been capping the vast potential that this country harbors.

This post comes a day before the Ayodhya verdict and I have this insatiable urge to give my opinions on it, after all the verdict is being pronounced from my home city, though this is one issue that no one can claim to have a definitive solution too. And it is one reason why the country waits for the D-day, to see what the judiciary has in its quiver.

Religion is a matter of faith. And Judiciary works on evidence. These two poles meet in the Ayodhya Case.

While we may question the justification of the whole scenario there are certain things to be kept in mind.
           -The demolition of the original Ram Mandir at Ayodhya by Babar should be seen as as historical mistake or should be addressed as a conjuncture to the 1992 demolition?

History is full of evidences where civilizations were destroyed by the victors, and it included the cultural and RELIGIOUS ethos. The reason why we suffix Alexander of Macedonia, Ashoka, Muhammad Zalaluddin Akbar as great is not because they were great conquerers but because they integrated by acceptance.

Ayodhya (Hindi: literary a city without war), on the banks of saryu river hasn't lived up to its name. If the waters of Saryu could speak we would be hearing the greatest story ever. A story that has the waves of goodness, starting from the RAAM RAJYA, the greatest times on this planet, to the modern day times where it witnesses the massacre of the message the the ideology of Raam, to place the idol of Raam.

The great messiahs of every nations have urged for inner enrichment than outer opulence. We are at war for an temple of Raam when he abdicated his throne for his father's wish, went to exile giving up all opulence of the palace for life of austerity. Raam, a person whose principles or Maryada found a place greater than his love.

Whilst I can write the whole day about him, I wouldn't ever understand him. The point is it is best to have Raam IN you.

I am not good at soliciting and am as excited about the verdict here is something that might help the judges.

HAGIA SOPHIA: a church in the eastern Roman Empire (modern day Turkey), was converted to a mosque by the Sultan when he seized the city of Constantinople (Istanbul) from the Byzantine Empire. In the modern times there was a divide with people wanting to retain the mosque, and some wanting to revert it to a church. The founder of modern turkey, Ataturk, declared it a MUSEUM ending all argument.

You got my point!!!
