"Girgeet"


Most of the people including us, changes there thoughts when it comes to apply the same thing for them. I just feel that human is a perfect example of changing or taking the meaning of rules or proverbs as per his convenience. When somebody dont follow the rules then we strongly argued that there should be Strict Rules so that nobody get suffers, but when our turn comes we just neglect those rules for a small leisure. At this moment I am just remembering the lesson which I studied in my school days , "Aatale aani Baherache" [ I think the author is Gangadhar Gadagil , I am not sure needs to checkout :) ]. In this lesson the author describes the incidence of getting a seat into the TRAIN. The train arrives on the station but the train was so rushy and there was not enough space inside it so the passengers inside every Boggie [Aatale] closes the door and dont allow anyone [Baherache] to come inside the Boggie. The author opposes this and argues that the train is for the public and everyone has a right to travell in it. But still noone from inside opens the door then author throughs his luggage inside the boggie and try to enter from the window , people from inside opposes but he dont listen and still try to enter in the boggie but meanwhile the Train starts and the person inside the boggie helps the author to enter the boggie, This way now author is inside the boggie i.e. he is a part of "Aatale" and as the next station arrives the author also closes the door and dont allow other passengers that is "Baherache" to enter the boggie. This is just a short depiction of how the human changes his behavior as per his convenience.
I think everybody around us is biased towards life. As Acharya Vinoba Bhave said we just see the "Vishwa-roop" and neglect the "Swa-roop". One of my relative is a politician and a corporator , I have observed many of our relatives who complains that there is not a good politician and government is not working for people but for themselves only. I am quiet astonished to see that the same people advises him to take the over advantage of his post. Sometimes I didn't understand how the same person can have these much changing views in very short span of time.



In Sane Guruji's autobiography "Shyamachi Aai" There is one incidence when after bath as there was some soil space between the bathroom and home, Shyam asks his mother to spread her sarees "Padar" on the soil so that he can come through that cloth without his clean leg being touched to soil. At this instance Shyamichi Aai (Shyam's Mother) says, "Shyam payala ghan lagu naye mhanun jasa japatos,
Tasa manala ghan lagu naye mhanun jap" [ read in marathi]
[meaning : Mother tells Shyam ," It is more important to clean the dirt in one’s mind than the dirt in the feet". ]
I strongly believes that everyone in todays world needs to think over the above statement.
