On the road to Transformation




On the road to transformation…
Realization is the first step,
Raising voice is the second,
But there comes a point when mere blind-ended ‘discussions’ can lead a people to hopelessness,
Its now when we collectively need to take a step forward
The third step being that of ‘Action’;
For no caravan can reach its destination if it feels satisfied after taking only the first few steps!
‘Action’ with ‘discipline’ and a sense of ‘responsibility’ can turn a barren soil, with no prospect of bearing fruit, fertile. This fertility results only when labor is employed to till the soil properly, with every person using full potential of their position and role.

We need to adopt an analytical approach towards knowing what stage on the road to transformation we are at, both individually and socially, to secure what we dream to achieve.

    Lets just dream thinking least about actions. But then DREAM also is action of superior kind . We are what we are because WE had Dreams.

    Amiya
    Dreams if not pursued properly may become disastrous. One dream needs to get fulfilled before a person can look beyond another horizon!
    Thanks for coming :)

    The way you lay out the process makes a perfect blending of not only analysis yet also of practices, choices and actions. I like the steps you recommend.

    At the same time, I'm curious what you may concede is operating underneath the surface of this awareness, choices and actions?

    Some possibilities may be: history - personal and collective; community - both personal, friendships, family, religious, national, etc. Then perhaps there's also intuition and surrender/submission.

    I'm curious as to what may distinquish your own process and choices?

    Thanx as always for such thoughtful/mature work.

    By the way, if you speak to Urooj, plz find out if she will be a part of another inter-generational service effort for the suffering peoples of Sindh? If not, we want to support the effort of the Edhi foundation yet would rather support her group. (from Connie - oneheartforpeace.blogspot.com )

    Thanks dear Connie :)
    As to your question,
    I feel that History, Analysis of the social and political thought of the day, Literature, and Collective goals, all acts as a thrust at each step.
    For an individual Faith and sense of Identity (based on the collective history) may be of a help to decide what action is suitable under some particular set of circumstances.

    I would like u to share what u think about the topic. What according to u provides the basis for the decisions about the actions and their nature?

    And I would let Urooj know of your offer.
    Thanks again :)

CREATIVE UNIVERSE!

Universe is a creative product by a Creative Self, and Man is an element having the best sense of creativity among the Creation . Everything in the Universe conceives and creates. Creation adds diversity of form and behavior which enhances the Beauty of the worlds. At sub-atomic level every instant electrons modify their pattern of movement, creating and destroying polarities, which in turn help change their chemical behavior. Resulting new and unique products add to Creation. Cosmic changes occur, energy and charge distribution changes in the upper atmosphere and we witness a creative movement of the heavenly bodies inside the space. When creativity reaches the shores of Human mind, it finds a new depth therein. It seems as if Man wants to consume all his energies creating and decorating things. Taking threads of nature and weaving them every time in a new fashion. For Man, inventing things for providing himself with comfort is all but a way to create and appreciate the ...

The Unconscious Self

“What color do you like?” “I prefer red.” “But why do u like it? There must be some reason.” “The only reason is that… THERE’S JUST NO REASON” There comes many such moments in our life when ‘There’s just no reason’ behind some of our actions or thoughts. Yet we feel determined to carry them out. This is the point when our unconscious steps in our conscious world and leaves indelible marks on it. Unconscious has a considerable effect on one’s way of life but the nature of the exact relation it has with the conscious self is mysterious. Also the fact that despite having seemingly conflicting nature one’s conscious and subconscious usually go together in an efficient way deepens this mystery further, thus making it more appealing for researches and study. Life is a complete system and the process of living needs every component of that system to work in harmony. That is why we should not consider that the unconscious and the conscious do not supplement each other. ...

Waves of sorrow and the fertile hearts!

The recent Monsoon season and the heavy rainfall we received poured some questions in the minds of many a people across Pakistan. In this post I would like to address three of such questions, according to my personal opinion, and would also like to know what you think about these questions. The questions are: ·          Why did a natural disaster as devastating as the recent floods hit us? ·          What can we at an individual and national level do for the relief of millions of people who are desperately looking towards us for help? And ·          In what way is the flood going to affect us, as a nation, in the long-term? Considering from different angles many different perspectives can be observed. Some believe that the ‘timely’ construction of large dams in the country could have helped storing water in the reservoirs, hence reducing the chances of floods. Others...
