In an animating and bountiful display of divine
architecture, God put together an entire universe,
all in one piece and that too out of nothingness. No measurements were taken,
no adhesive used either; He fixed the massive stars and planets all in one go, at
locations which remain unexplored by man even to this day. The basic elements
which went in to piece together an infinite universe comprising all forms of
life were eternal love, divine truth, omniscience and omnipotence.
Incidentally, the creation of universe by the Almighty was preceded by God
chastising the devils for their act of rebellion against divine will. Through this one act of creation the Almighty
established a dividing line which separated divinity from humanity, infinite
from finite and spirit from matter. And
man, as the ruler of the universe, was positioned at one edge of the finite
world while the other extreme came to be occupied by Satan led by Lucifer and
his bad angels.
The only barrier that separated one from the other was death
in the case of human beings and eternal damnation for the devils. However, neither had the liberty to stray in
to the domain of the other without the explicit nod of the Almighty.
It may be worth recalling that God created angels in His own
mystical image thereby ordaining them to exist with all splendour, radiance and
resplendence in the company of other angelic spirits much like God
Himself. After many millions of divine
years, God decided to create the universe and all creatures with it. This done,
He gave charge of the universe to his supreme creation namely man. The bad angels under Lucifer could not
withstand the Almighty lavishing love sublime on human beings ranked below
them. A section of such angels rebelled
against God which act of theirs attracted the wrath of Almighty who ordered His
archangels to banish them out of the celestial bliss in to a state of
deprivation in hell.
Relegated to a nadir of abysmal existence and having
forefeited their right to exist either as part of an infinite realm or in a
finite world with human beings as company, and having been made an outcast,
detested by all, deprived of a graceful existence, and above all having lost
the grace and favour of God Almighty Himself, Satan has had to resign himself
to his eternal fate and languish for ever in hell in solitude and
damnation. Satan in his attempt to
obviate his antipathy towards human beings contemplated a plot to avenge the
drubbing and humiliation received at the hands of Almighty by successfully
driving a wedge between man vis-à-vis his creator, the Almighty and Everlasting
God.
Incidentally, Satan deemed it an ignominous scourge to exist
within the periphery of infinity under abject deprivation. Forelorn and
despondent, having been denied access to human world and pushed to leading a
life as evil spirits within the narrow confines of eternal doom, he made good
his plan of floating unproductive and hazardous elements in to the world, with
an eye to wean away as many of the human beings in to his domain, namely hell.
To this end he put in his all, by toiling day in and day out so as to make man
his fodder and the world an eyesore to his own creator.
Hard-work, devotion, dedication,
patience, spirit of denial, sacrifice and to top them all perseverance. Virtues
in abundance! You name them. He has them
all – the Devil!
If there is any single trait that we
ought to learn from the devil, it is perseverance. As a matter of fact,
perseverance is an attribute the devil is so possessive about and would not
dare part with even grudgingly for a no-return. He has been on the job for
millions of years, industriously straining his lacerated physique, toiling hard
in the hope of weaning away as many humans into his abstract world of despair
and devastation. A ghost of an enigma and an outcast of divine wrath, devil can
never abide by the dictum of God
or His angels. He observes no law; obtains no justice. Like a live and pale
shadow, he goes about his chores profusely pining for the lost bliss of
celestial serenity. Having squandered away his divine gift, he has been
destined to survive in isolation away from the bliss of divinity and God! And
the greatest slight he has had to bear was creation of the universe and man
followed by his redemption.
Satan has been on the prowl ever
since the beginning of creation. Being
barred by God Almighty from making direct contact with human beings, which act
could spell disastrous for the weak creatures namely man, a malignant Satan
indulged in proxy war directly on human beings but indirectly on God. He did
this by floating pernicious instincts that could rent apart the honour and
dignity of human beings and by infesting the universe with a spell of pointed
discord, malaise, destruction, devastation, melancholy and death upon man in a
manner that could leave the humans vexed with a life of indignity and
dishonour.
We live in a universe that was wholly and graciously gifted
to man by God Himself through an act of predilection. However, the host who caters to man is the
devil himself who has the entire universe hijacked for his amusement, in a
manner that the universe might appear lacerated and famished as Satan is. There
is therefore, no wonder that life provides a lot of disconnect among human
beings which are but an outcome of misperceptions, misunderstandings or
misprojections by people and nations who deem it their exclusive right to abide
by each one’s temperament. Incidentally,
the emerging trend among human beings is indicative of a colossal departure
from the strategic design and divine will originally outlined by God for man
and the universe.
Strategic meddling and rampant maneuvering in core aspects
of creation as also in the overall activities of man by Satan, by and large
disturbed the rhythem with which life first started. Moreover, the devil wasted no time in
twisting man made laws and faking judgements to suit his sinister designs in
order to pit one against the other. An
avalanche of divided perceptions lashed the citadel and the fortifications of
man’s inner trust and mutual harmony, all of which took a beating at the
dexterous manipulations by Satan. Even
the huge strides made in the field of Science and Technology did not stand up
to the quantum expectations of a civilized world. In his effort to augument the
prospects of a pompous life, man started eyeing to attain excellence. Excel he
did, but his inferior instinct gave the game away. As is bound to happen, when shine starts
enveloping the universe, the darker elements take advantage of the
sparkle. An arrogant man found himself
groping through a vicious circle of his own make in an attempt to buy himself
peace and tranquility, which was not to be.
For by the time comfort and luxury of his choice showed up, life had
altogether become a haphazard trap wherein man’s interaction with other human
beings drew flak, as a result of which he only met with stumbling block at
every cross road. He was unable to proceed with errands without doling out
largesse in his manners, approach and attitude with people in order to keep
them in good humour for having his way.
Incidentally, man strayed far too much in to a realm of peevishness;
thanks to an imp playing his part exceedingly well to the detriment of man and
the universe.
In this context, it needs to be emphasized that the goodness
of God is infinite. The onus for all the
perils and hazards including the curse of destruction, devastation and death
falls squarely on the one only adversary of God namely Satan, who deliberately
played false with the fate of man and pinned him down to such a state of
helplessness. God as the supreme Good
can only vouchsafe to protect the free will endowed on Satan and his entire
creation including man. Satan has been untiringly sawing the seed of pain,
suffering, discomfiture, discord, death, and likewise inflicting heavy
casualties on human beings through natural catastrophes such as earthquakes,
volcanos, tsunamis or other perils and even displacing the good due to man by
delaying the sequence of peace, happiness and prosperity.
When Satan engages a proxy to play host to guests (read
human beings) who have been gifted with the entire universe by Almighty
Himself, man has every right to assert his prowess to overcome the hazards so
placed by Satan. Whatever situation the
world may be in as of today, is on account of man’s mistrust of his creator or
on account of his towing a different line.
This needs amendment. As of
today, the world is a divided lot with one side wholly and flourishingly
following the diktat of Satan. On the other hand there is hardly a handful of
faithful ones following the precepts of the supreme Creator. Obviously a tussle would always exist between
the two in the form of competition or prod. What may then emerge would be
grotesquely a blurred picture of misunderstanding by some, high handedness by
few and a host of evil instincts let loose by Satan creating havoc for the just
ones. A finite man loses count on all
aspects but God does not. When a close
relative of his passes away man appears overcome with grief, whereas when
someone else far away falls victim to another’s misadventure, he merely looks
on with casual approach. There is need
for introspection. There is need to open up to a universal conduct, a universal
approach and a universal attitude.
Man was created by God out of love and predilection that he
might bear testimony for the infinite love bestowed on him through His eternal
and divine truth manifested in His omniscience and omnipotence. Being the only
heir to an infinite creation, man is greatly indebted to and owes total
allegiance to God only. As such, his primary objective ought to be to strive
towards greater glory of God which can best be achieved through a life adorned
with human attributes namely ‘Ethics,
Manners
& Etiquette’.
Survival is vital for existence for it is the flavour of
life, a flavour which lingers on till you fade away from the world; in like
manner flavour or survival demands dignity, which being the cream adorning
one’s life and which caters to one’s ambitions and aspirations. With cream and
the flavour in hand, one only needs to give shape to the material aspect which
makes the difference viz. the goal one sets for oneself. The voyage you are on should not be anchored
until you attain a wholesome success, a renowned fame and an envious reputation
which should shape your destiny and provide the needed impetus to the onward
thrust, add dimension to your thrill and confer on you a cause for
celebrations. So destine your future
with élan, bestride an elegant world of sophistication, profess a broad
outlook, lead a circle of your closest friends with dynamism and allow your
future to smile on you to the delight of your near and dear ones with a new
episode titled “Ethics,
Manners
& Etiquette
– Leaf – 2”.
A unique concept
styled ‘Ethics, Manners & Etiquette’, minutely framed to broadly include
all the required features intended to give one and all a direction on how to go
about their journey to fame, reputation and success and savour the glory of a
carefree life is submitted herein for the benefit of everyone. Every attempt has been made to include all
categories of people in to paving the way for a pleasant and peaceful
destiny. Special care has also been
taken to bring about an environment for coexistence of all sections of people
from every walk of life and people from all disciplines, irrespective of
category, profession or standing in the society, to enable advance with a
secured identity of their own. With the
world progressing at a fast pace and the demand for absorbing knowledge,
experience and competence far exceeding the schedule and timeframe as
determined for each, the elite who would stand to succed in life would have to
minimize inordinate delays in tackling certain areas of expression and
articulation. It is of paramount importance that we keep in mind the
effectiveness of clear-cut expression, communication and articulation.
One should also bear
in mind the time-frame by which one needs to devise ways and means of skipping
unnecessary and time consuming work out so as to keep abreast of the challenge
being faced by the present day generation, which far exceeds one’s capacity,
capability and speed. Seeing the need
for people to cover extensive stretches of ground before arriving at a
plausible distance of one’s goal, attempt has also been made to give a boost to
a virtuous life far surpassing the normal stretch of mediocrity and lack of
professionalism. With the standards
having fallen far below the affordable levels, and which would necessarily
warrant an increased and enhanced foresight by both young and old in attaining
one’s goal, and for providing a cosmopolitan approach to people and their
lives, every minutest of details have been taken care of so that a Chapter for
the reform of life and attitude of people may reach every section of people so
as to benefit equally one and all.
The overall features
have been meticulously framed and a pattern adopted with rigorous exercise
keeping the need of time and generation.
It is important to remember that progress in life demands novelty in
approach, positive interaction with people and ability to communicate with
people with grace. Any let up in projecting oneself with ease could result in
decline in one’s image which can psychologically affect the momentum, the focus
and resultantly tardy the progress. ‘Ethics, Manners & Etiquette’ attempts
to formulate this exercise whereby people with determination and skill may not
lag behind in attaining the pinnacle of glory to the advantage of themselves,
the society, the nation and the world.
The purpose and aim in defining the theme for success of all is to place
everyone within the parameters of a vocation for achieving recognition so that
the entire exercise would tantamount to a life-long experience that would
necessarily come to stay for the betterment of people who matter in a society.
The moment you step out on to the road, be sure, you are being watched
by hundreds of people from different walks of life. These may constitute businessmen,
professionals, educated, uneducated, powerful, influential, prominent or
high-ranking and besides of course, your neighbors, acquaintances and the list
goes on to level up to the present day population. However, it is up to you to convert people’s looks
or advances in to a line up for your friendship. And what would you make of
this line up, an archive? Friends make up your day-to-day strength to surmount
problems in life. Be sure, your attitude test starts the moment you are on the
road to achieving a goal.
Life does not provide a magic for attaining position,
authority or for fulfillment of one’s dreams.
Likewise, a path to recognition, an achievement, fame, success,
reputation etc. has to be traced through tireless efforts combined with determination
and skill. An accomplishment of any of
the aforesaid glory, when achieved by way of a virtuous life, dedication and
competency will alone add milestones to your lingering reputation and herald an
era of joy and fulfillment. Such a
disposition alone would positively make an impact on your life and a supreme
acknowledgement of your achievement endorsed by those who would later on flock
to you for guidance. People who feel
inclined to taking up such challenge, ought to brace themselves up for any eventuality
mindful of the fact that nothing comes free in life and mediocrity and
half-heartedness would serve no purpose till you achieve the goal set out for
yourself. Your adversaries would strike
when and where you least suspect.
Ostensibly the unscrupulous or wayward elements may even attempt to
drift you off the mark. And the extraordinarily gutsy elements might even
attempt a cakewalk or a free ride over your self-respect and good
demeanour. Be not dismayed nor should
you lose heart, for even as you renew your efforts to gain control of yourself,
the necessary windfall boost will come your way for “the reward for hard work
and a dedicated effort is always decided by the giver of life, the
creator”. You only need to accomplish
your part i.e. the endorsement of God’s will and the world is yours!
In our dealings it is vital that we be prepared to face
people of diverse nature and category be it in age, education, culture, view or
social standing. Even so, it is of paramount importance to be on extra alert
always while maneuvering to achieve our errand or submitting a view at the
disposal of others or even at soliciting an advice or opinion. Remember, on most occasions your activities
would be suspect in the eye of shadowy elements or proxies who may or may not
have your good in mind and hence vulnerable to attempts of sabotage by shrewed
and dastardly elements lying in wait for people on fastrack. Never lose sight of your goal, for you are
there not to reverse a process or to distance your destination, much less to
sideline your means to achieve the end. Remember, your end is your success and
means your attitude. If you persevere in your focused approach, you stand
chances of enhancing the prospects of a glorious end through “Ethics, Manners
& Etiquette”.
Our elders aver that “idleness is the mirror of the
devil”. In the same breath they also
caution us that “excessive speed gets one nowhere” (Chinese proverb). In order to tread on a safer alley to avoid
tripping over inadvertently we need to adopt a focused approach, lest the
enemies catch us unawares and consequently our progress get hindered.
Maya Angelou is on record with her “I find it interesting
that the meanest life, the poorest existence, is attributed to God’s will, but
as human beings become more affluent, as their living standard and style begin
to ascend the material scale, God descends the scale of responsibility at a
commensurate speed”.
A caution, therefore, for those aspiring to attain their
goals is to remind oneself time and again that their activities are always
under the scanner of the evil elements and an occupied mind is as much prone to
devil’s agents. Once you decide to
plunge in to the arena of competitiveness, you would have to get accustomed to
tremors from the devil’s proxies who would not sit idle till you fail
them. You would be playing a battle of
wits. Things could drag you to embarrassing moments. However, such adversities are bound to prop
up time and again for the devil knows well that the proxies engaged by him would
never reach the final destination but are bound to fall back somewhere in the
race. Beware of the prod by the devil. Utilize your weapon namely patience,
fortitude, forbearance and valour. He
who rides rough shod over your integrity would get weakened with the passage of
time. Take an earthly assurance that those who battle your integrity today,
belittle your esteem, make light of your self-respect and those who do not heed
your courteous gestures and moves would one day stand in awe at the sparkling
image you would radiate even as the pursuit of your goal would reach near
fulfillment. They would then hang their
heads in shame at the folly of having played foul throughout.
As for a solemn assurance, you have the convincing words
under a divine assurance from our Lord Jesus Christ Himself who said “I am the
way, the truth and the life” when he emphatically taught that -
Mathew 5:10-11
Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’
sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are you when people revile you and persecute you and utter all
kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great
in heaven.
People who wish to advance in life; they would have to be on
their toes keeping humour and cheap talks at bay. Be of a focused mind as well
as maintain a focused approach with determination that can surpass falling prey
to attempts by people with inferior instinct at demeaning your self
respect. The unruly and treacherous
elements could exploit your attitude to the hilt. Always remember, you are
there in your interest and your interest is your goal, to be achieved at all
costs. Dare them, and the evil shall vanish at Godspeed!
However, in order to achieve a vertical climb, in order to
attain the glory of fame, honour and reputation, one requires a soul mate – to
be precise a friend. A friend who would
qualify to be one when you grope about for solace of trust, one who would have
the sanctity within capable of linking the finite with infinite, a friend who
would have an image of your reflection, image like yourself which would satisfy
your craving for perfection, human perfection – him you might term a
friend. A friend who would remind you of
yesterday, satisfy your today. And above all a friend who would assure you of a
tomorrow. Such a friend would have the potential to not only boost your image
but even to add a chain of like friends to your following and even multiply the
number to form a circle that would allow you a free interaction as also enhance
your prominence, your prestige and your prospects.
When you need a favour, be it material or even if it be of a
spiritual nature, of all the neighbors around, you sure can count on your
friend to deliver and he alone will do so diligently. A time tested mutual friend would always have
your interest in equal measure as his. A
friend would be a friend in life, a friend in adversity and a friend till
infinity who would have no qualms about making sacrifices to any extent for a
friend who can buy our trust even to death.
Chieri
is a tiny hamlet on the outskirts of Turin in Italy
All at once a thunderous eruption rent the air. Strong winds
lashed at the latched doors and windows flinging them wide open. There was
rattling sound all around. The impact was beyond comprehension and the
magnitude beyond human confabulations. The entire apartment shook below the
feet or so it appeared. An earth quake of such magnitude could be
understandable, but a heavens quake was never desirable, especially at a time
when the young seminarians were retiring for a night’s rest after a hectic
day’s schedule. The roaring winds deafened the curious minds in to exchanging
bewildered looks all around as also at each other unable to gasp for breath at
such astonishing developments that confused their minds. In short, it was a
night portending unforeseen disasters.
Then as though from nowhere in the vicinity, a tender glow of celestial
light wafted over an otherwise hilarious heaven. All eyes were fixed on to the
gush of light steaming out of thickened heavens. As light spread out with
swirling intensity, a soothing melody followed by a mild tune chimed out of the
flooded lights, generating bliss like radiance all around. As the humming of
music died down in streaks, a soft voice echoed out of nowhere. “Bosco,
my friend – I am saved”. The voice echoed away in to distant night and the
music retreated in to timeless memory. The serenity of the night returned while
the nearly two dozen youngsters sat clustered around each other unable to
fathom what the mirage was all about. The entire episode brought about a thrill
of horror in to the advancing night.
However, for Don Bosco it was a unique event which rendered his
conviction a consummation. He recognized
the voice as that of Luigi Comollo, an intimate friend and colleague who pursued his studies in the Seminary where he passed away on April 2,
1837.
Luigi
Comollo and Don Bosco had casually entered in to a pact that whosoever
passed away first would return to convey to the other where and in what state
he was. Born on April 7, 1817 in Pra,
Cinzano, Italy
St. Don Bosco on various occasions referred to the episode narrated
above. However, on all occasions he cautioned his students and colleagues to
refrain from making such a pact since it was fraught with dangerous
consequences for the very reason that the two realms of humanity and divinity
are poles apart from one another and any attempt to bring them together could
jeopardize the equilibrium of the lesser denomination viz. human nature or the
universe. Nonetheless, the readers would
do well to carry away a great lesson Don Bosco himself wanted to teach others
viz. the totality of selfless love for a neighbour which we in human terms call
‘friend’. It would have been nearest to
impossible for a person to return to a finite realm of human existence after
having left the world whereby the soul of a person had parted from the human body. By coincidence, there is reason to believe
that this may perhaps have been one unique instance of a pact arrived at
between friends and a logical fulfilment of pact under peculiar circumstances
despite tremendous odds to the contrary.
Much stands debated though, but man’s attempt to piece
out an exact or closest definition or identity of friend have always made him
rely on the one only inspired Holy Book, the Bible. Who is a friend?
Friendship accords us
a plank. Friendship provides us with an opportunity to theme our lives. Friendship shapes an occasion to repose our
trust in someone who would match our image and likeness, of the resemblance
that God made man. Much of what we profess, much of what we learn and all of
what we own, we owe it to a friend or friends, young or old, inferior or
superior, opponent or well wisher. Only
a negligible percentage of the knowledge we possess is the outcome of our own
hardwork. Friendship provides us with an exercise that moulds our thoughts, our
deeds, our experience, our years, our lives but above all our own attitude.
Fame, success and reputation can only stem from a well
founded base embedded in knowledge, virtues and congeniality. Ethics is an exercise in this direction. Much of the resistance we encounter in
practical life arises out of our rigidness born out of arrogance or
ignorance. But if we succeed in bending
our perspectives uniformly with a mellowed voice, an appealing tone, a pitch
with a rhythem that can chime in to the ears of others, an entreat, a request
with regret for intrusion, then there are chances of a success in mollifying an
adversary or breaking the freeze in people’s attitude.
“Ethics,
Manners & Etiquette” are traits which render man a specie apart from
all other creatures roaming the earth or hovering the skies. Although the three characteristics namely “Ethics,
Manners & Etiquette” merely complement each other, yet what goes a
long way in moulding one in to an upright man in the eye of the society, as
also the one single aspect which prominently distinguishes a person as
extraordinary from the other human beings is Ethics. Ethics forms an integral part of any
dignified living while the remaining two namely Manners & Etiquette merely
feature as compliments to the former for purposes of decency and decorum in
life.
Having arrived at the threshold of Ethics, it is important
to point out how for trifles we are in the forefront, eager to demean others,
to strip people of their dignity without the least respect & reverence for
what they are or for what they merit or for what they command. In our eagerness
to promote our ‘ego’, we push people in to pits of despair and devastation, not
even allowing them to make amends for slight and finite errors. Attitude
demands a greater degree of tolerance, which we all lack. “Ethics, Manners & Etiquette” covers much
for bringing about herculean change within such capricious people who make no
bone of their attempts to browbeat people who deserve utmost respect.
Ethics is an esthetic art which enables one to sense,
evaluate, judge, concur or act morally, justly and accurately with a positive
frame of mind as also in a disciplined manner on issues of common interest
relating to spirituality and human life.
Incidentally, Ethics relates to acts of perceiving, deliberating upon,
deciding or acting on any aspect of divine or human life within the frame-work
of morality and virtuousness. Although the term ‘Ethics’ is commonly referred
to philosophically as the art of deciding the right and wrong side of life and
resultant activities but in real life it encompasses a wider perspective having
a larger meaning to supplement one’s ability
and to infallibly deal with all aspects concerning life.
How ethics came to be born? After many million years of
existence in solitude, God descended over the universe of infinite time and
eternal matter. For a moment the essence
of time, infinity and eternity came to a standstill and the clock of creation
started ticking for man. It was at this
juncture that God created a positive concept called man. He did this in His own
image and likeness. He then infused in
to him a soul which portrayed the grace and radiance of divine presence within
his human physique that constituted man in his prime stage of creation. This way man came to exist. However, after man’s fall from grace due to
treacherous connivance by Satan, man imbibed certain idiosyncrasies wholly and
exclusively owned by the devil whereby the body of man got contaminated in to a
naked waste with ruined countenance prone to decay and destruction. The curse of Satan got the better of man and
man lost the grace, favour and right to evoke the grace of the Almighty. Ethics was born the day our first parents
disobeyed God. The structure of man’s
composition changed to mere flesh and blood ultimately destined to end at the
instance of devil’s spitefulness. A man
who, through no fault of his, was drained of his graceful and sublime senses,
made to part with the gracious instinct endowed by God and made to fall through
unfathomable depths of meanest instincts imbibed from the devil himself. That
same man is now destined to rise in pursuit of a goal, fame, success and
reputation through a novel standard envisaged as the one only path to ascending
the pinnacle of glory and which is now brought to you under a new episode
titled “Ethics,
Manners
& Etiquette
– Leaf – 2”.
Ethics is all about moral values, positive psyche, conscious
assessment, dignified approach, broadened outlook and a host of other virtuous
connotations, all comprehensively envisioned and effectively positioned with
conviction and grace. Dignity of every
person grows with reason and realization, much the way he advances in age and
wisdom. The root element and the depth
of dignity lies in age, reason and realization as also the manner in which a
person conducts himself, the maturity he reveals within and the equilibrium he
projects with utmost ease. A well
founded base possessing advantages like knowledge, virtue and good demeanour
can stimulate a person to ascend to heights of fame, success and reputation
with ease.
Ethics is a unique apparatus capable of monitoring human
instinct, human senses and negativity in life. Human nature is prone to insinuation
by way of circumstance, temptation, prod, nag, goad and similar antagonizing attempts
to divert one’s goal, attention or focus. Be you of steady mind and never allow
such negativity to gnaw in to key areas where you need to focus your thrust or
where you have achieved partial or full success, for it is never easy to
recover a lost ground. However, valiant
people will bypass all such temptations and forge ahead with determination and
thrust. Maintain your mental equilibrium
and all adversity will fade away with the passing of time.
“Ethics,
Manners & Ettiquette”,
if linked to practical life, the very chances of survival of law and the courts
would appear bleak. Remember, in your pursuit of your goal of your choice,
every aspect of life would be on your side including state, law and
administration because you hold the flame of ‘honesty, simplicity and truth’ of
the like of ‘silence, simplicity and steadfastness of resolve’, under your
banner “Ethics, Manners & Etiquette”.
And what is a law that has done
precious little to make man conscious of his duties and responsibilities towards
society? What after all is a judgment that needs years to arrive at a
manipulated truth? Seeing the time lag between the first motion and the final
judgment, it can safely be inferred that considerable manipulations have taken
place with the passage of time vis-à-vis the incident, the place of occurrence
and the circumstances of a crime. Moreover, a judgment too is passed based on
deliberations by Counsels, where even the judge would never have steered out of
his seat to arrive at a just judgement or to hasten a process of justice. In a
nutshell, a ridiculous instance of delivering a wrong judgement!
Incidentally, man has become a mere
spectator and at best a casualty under the vigilant eye of law and justice,
allowing innocents or those without criminal bent of mind to become one or to
languish in jails or at best silently bear the ignominious pain of death and
devastation under fabricated laws and judgments.
Devil is aware that the only power
on earth capable of resurrecting, restructuring or renovating and rebuilding
the creation back to its original shape prior to the first sin, is God Himself
who alone can dispense justice to humans.
Be focused for your destination is nigh. You cannot change
your features, but the attitude you can, at nobody’s expense. With the universe
galloping towards an unknown destination, with its original features disfigured
having encountered a perilous journey through millions of years in succession,
the only trust you can repose is in yourself, your attitude, your good demeanour
to arrive safely at your projected destination. In order to counter the evil
that you might come by at appropriate intervals there is only one solution to
rely on, namely “Ethics, Manners & Etiquette”.
Your magic is in your own hands and if you have the courage
to hold aloft the trinity flame of “Ethics, Manners & Etiquette”, then fame,
success and reputation will be yours to reach out for. The magic has to be
evolved by you and this can best be achieved through a process of everlasting
consequence. Hence await the next episode of ‘Ethics, Manners & Etiquette”.
