My buddy Imthi has written in his blog about a big mystery in human race. And he has his reasons to blame the politicians and rulers of the country. Fair enough.
But, let’s look at the schemes implemented in this mighty country of ours in purview of poverty. Female infanticide and feticide was very common in many hamlets of tamilnadu because the parents thought that they can’t afford a hefty dowry once the child grows up. And the ex CM brought in the “thottil kuzhanthai” system where parents can place the babies if they don’t want to bring them up. But this was misused like anything and babies born thru illegitimate relationships were also put into those cradles. I am quoting this only as an example and many such schemes from government side were not taken in the true sense by the public. It’s high time that we think outside the small circle of the politicians and rulers.
Having said this I am not taking the responsibility of rulers away. As he rightly pointed out, a fraction of defense budget is needed to provide clean drinking water to these deprived and destitute classes. But balancing between the needs, security and vote bank politics is a tight rope walk.
But, why kids suffer? And why almighty did this? These are questions beyond our comprehension. The word almighty itself means that he has the potential and we are just directed. But I am not trying to sound philosophical by uttering that it’s all divine play. Certainly not. The creator has just given us lot of possibility. These are opportunities which evoke the innate compassion which are dormant in you and me. These are the driving forces which gave a number of noble souls who worked for the betterment of this world. As you realize his powers and his play you realize the role you have to play in eradicating the poverty in the world.
Just imagine this. If you know what the board of directors is discussing, or what the thought process of your CEO is, then what’s the level barrier? The very fact of mystery which lies in between the slave and the master defines the magnitude of power.
Maybe, if poverty is eradicated then the population may explode to another level and the existence of the planet may be under threat. In one way or the other, I strongly believe that creator with all his boundless wisdom has got his own way of settling things. Believing that he did this out of reasons which is incomprehensible for our limited knowledge is the epitome of faith and working tirelessly towards the upliftment of those deprived classes with the comfort he has given us is the epitome of spirituality.
