THE BREATH OF LORD AND THE WORD OF GOD
All flesh is grass,
and all its loveliness is like the flower of the field.
The grass withers and the flower fades,
because the breath of the Lord blows upon it .
surely the people are grass.
The grass withers and the flower fades,
But the word of God stands forever. Isaiah 40 : 6-8
Flesh is like grass, but the morality, spirituality , good code of conduct and eternal values are permanent and they never change. Our concept of ideal family is the same . Anything contrary to that brings heart aches and misery to all the family members at the present time as well as in olden times. Irrespective of all cultures and continents, all have the moral code of conduct which we are supposed to abide by. The offences are mostly the same among children as well as adults. Stealing, telling lies, insincerity , disloyalty, corruption, cheating in all relationships, coveting, misuse of authority and power or friendship etc The guide line and the correct path is shown by the rules and regulations which we ourselves formulate on the basis of the repurcussions and aftermath of certain behaviours and conducts and transactions. The common standard or yardstick against which we can assess the everyday incidents and actions is the law. It is applicable to all young and old and for all religious and cultural groups . Does any religious or cultural group differ from others in their basic values and mental and spiritual feelings, heartaches, mental agony, pain and peace . All are affected with the same sickness of blood pressure, diabetes, lung or heart problem in accordance with their lifestyle irrespective of their affinity to religion or nativity. We all pay the tax assessed by the same rules and receive salary according to the designation irrespective of religion or culture. We learn the same chemistry, physics, mathematics,, history etc without any preference to any one. People are born and dying but these values remain eternal and we have to submit to them while we have breath so that others also can breath air of freedom and liberty and dignity and reverence.
When there is war, strife and calamity in any place, other countries voluntarily come forward to extend help. When families are suffering in our neighbourhood, in our state, in the neighbouring state due to murder, terrorism in hostels, college campuses, communal conflict or caste conflict, do we not partake of their agony, suffering and mental strain as ours. When we think of it, all these could have been prevented if only a little help and implementation of proper authority was exerted at the correct time, that is at the very beginning of the trouble . Democracy was supposed to be balm for all vices, to wipe out all corruption and high handedness but how far have we succeeded. Is there any change from the British rule, princely rule, Zamindar rule . Minority are still under yoke and bondage !!!
