What matters........

What matters is....

 to find right kind of relationship 

with one another... 

Actually not theoretically and

if that relationship is corrupt, 

dishonest and exploiting 

then in  that relationship there is corruption.... 

Therefore in the world ....

corruption comes in to being.

while we live in conflict 

from the moment..... 

we are born till we die.

---J.Krishnamurthy.

How are we doing.....?

How are you doing ? 

Is probably a question....

Most of us never ask of a dog or pig or 

a bird or any animal species

One comes across in one's life...

But if one had asked the same of 

A fellow human being..... 

Then one is most probably doing it so 

Out of a superficial routine.

Quote of the day.....

Good comes in the form of confession.

-- Dostoevsky.
As quoted by Robert Bresson.

The desire to rule over others.......

Off all the human emotions 

The most irrational one is....

The desire to rule over others.

Quote of the day.....

You are not only responsible for what you say, 

but also for what you do not say.

 — Martin Luther.

Quote of the day.....

Especially in false moralistic societies,

 where religious bigotry is on the helm,

which is world over,

the moral sanctimony is so cruel,

it instead breeds evil,

which says who is next than humanity or compassion

which is embedded in forgiving and

while there are no apparent sanctions 

for one's short coming,

a person will have room to muster enough courage and 

call up on humility ,

which in turn paves a path for virtue to admitting to 

ones folly and short coming ,

since there is no judgement and consequently

one does not have fear about being shamed or 

face abuse from others

but a possibility to become a better human 

on one's own accord.

When a society in its wisdom fails...

individual turn away inwardly fearing

their own inadequacies known to the world 

that would invite abuse and judgement.

So people by and large wear masks of false niceties,

while fearing for their lives ,

conspiring against their own kind,

with out any real faith what so ever,

with a religious affiliation or with out.

__ Brian Williams.

Quote of the day......

"Screaming at each other has never caused change,"

Sure, sometimes major protests and rioting 

in the streets causes change, 

but when it's people one-on-one? 

Having a screaming competition in that setting 

never changes minds. 

So we need to try and understand each other.

-- Sarah Silverman.

Indignities of Oppressor and the Oppressed...........

The oppressor and the oppressed must

both be liberated.

--- Nelson Mandela.
Long walk to freedom.(Mar 28th, 2016)

Quote of the day......

The true measure of a man

is how he treats someone

who can do him absolutely no good.

-- Dr. Samuel Johnson(1709-1784)

Quote of the day....

The question is not,

Can they reason? nor

Can they talk? but,

Can they suffer?

-- Jeremy Bentham.

Raise of the machine........

Bakunin has sometimes been called 

the first theorist of the "new class", meaning 

that a 'class' of intellectuals and bureaucrats 

running the state in the name of the people or 

the proletariat – 

but in reality in their own interests alone. 

Bakunin argued that the "State has always been 

the patrimony of  some privileged class: 

a priestly class, an aristocratic class, a bourgeois class. 

And finally, when all the other classes have 

exhausted themselves, ....

the State then becomes the patrimony of 

the bureaucratic class and then falls—or

if you will, rises—to the position of a machine.

To be......

(All)  Knowledge is ( Omni ) present..... 

Irrespective of an individual's disposition 

In any given world.

Gossip.............

Gossip is communal....

It is an affliction of

The like minded stereotypes.

Between You and Me.....

Between you and me 

You and I know the truth.....

But I have my people behind me.

---Mr. Anonymous.

         *       *       *        *        *

I also took advantage of the fact that 

I was widely admired in my and their community, 

which disabled them from sharing their story and 

brought hardship to them when they tried because 

people who look up to me didn’t want to hear it. 

I didn’t think that I was doing any of that 

because my position allowed me not to think about it.

---Louis C.K.

Quote of the day.......

The study of history is a powerful antidote 

to contemporary arrogance. 

It is humbling to discover how many of 

our glib assumptions, 

which seem to us novel and plausible, 

have been tested before, 

not once but many times and in innumerable guises; 

and discovered to be, 

at great human cost, 

wholly false.

-- Paul Johnson.

Real world........

The real world is a place where it's hard sometimes 

to find people who will listen with an attitude 

that they might actually be convinced of something,

Instead, what happens in most of the real world is 

that people don't listen at all.


They aren't looking to actually learn anything 

about you or about what you think. 

It's a place where people take sides 

rather than trying to understand - 

are they still on the right side? 


They care mostly about their side winning.


---FBI Director James Comey. 2017
Convocation speech at Howard university.

No more concentration camps........

I tried to look away,

but he would hold my face,” she said.

So I was forced to look into his eyes.

And I felt disgust and shame, and

like nobody would ever think of me as being

clean again after being this close to the devil.

His energy was so sinister.

--- Selma blair.

      *         *         *        *        *

You have to get it all out in the open and

in the light so that we can really understand

how pervasive this is,” McAdams said.

I think we almost have to exhaust ourselves

sharing our experiences before

the rebuilding can begin.

And hopefully...........

we never slip back into this darkness again.


----Rachel Mc Adams.

The Realometer......

The realometer, that could cut through 

the" mud and slush of opinion " and

prejudice, and tradition......

to a Hard bottom.

----Henri David Thoreau.

In truth.......

Truth is....

An overarching compassion.

Quote of the day......“I did it. I got there, but not without a price.....

Maroney was one of the “Fierce Five” 

that won gold at the 2012 London Olympics; 

she also won silver..... 

in the individual vault event. 

In her letter, Maroney spoke of how 

the Olympics had been her dream 

since she was a child, 

watching the 2004 Games as an 8-year-old.

“From the outside looking in,

 it’s an amazing story,” Maroney wrote. 

“I did it. I got there, 

but not without a price.

-----------------

[On October 18, 2017, Maroney alleged that 

USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar 

repeatedly molested her, starting when 

she was 13 years old until her retirement 

from the sport in 2016.]
