REGISTER AND TRUTH OF IDENTITY

REGISTER AND TRUTH OF IDENTITY

The origin of register started very recently, may be 100 or 200 years back. Before that there were native people Some   came for trade and  settled here, people who were attracted by the beautiful culture , heritage and the land or  who came to colonize , all  settled down here because of their attachment to our nation etc. One thing is sure people were fascinated by India which is due to the good nature and hospitable mentality that they wanted to be part of this great nation. When material wealth surpass and overtake spiritual mentality and human dealings, naturally evil forces raise their heads to mar the peace of society. Amassing wealth need not make division in society.  There are many wealthy people all over the world by whom billions of people are benefitted, nourished, educated and empowered in all fields, who may not even know the name of their beneficiary !!! They are silent saints who contribute immensely for the welfare of all needy ones. When a child is born and if the name is not registered, are we supposed to discard that child from our country. But who will accept them ? Who will care for them ? When the parent’s entrusted their children to the care of the welfare societies under the jurisdiction of governments, we know the shocking treatment those children are getting. It is so shameful even t to hear and read about them. Then how much more their own parents must be undergoing. The trauma of these children, can any psychologists, psychiatrists, priests or nuns and  yogis can erase ???? Will anybody marry them ? Is it their fault ? Is it the fault of the parents ? ( The only fault is that they all trusted the government’s  promise of protection . If the groom’s family is informed that all these happened because the government authorities did not fulfill the security promise given to them at the time of admission, will it be considered

valid ? The parents might have been compelled to put their children in these hostels because they may be working in some other states or due to sickness.)Will the parents also be asked to leave the  county ? Will the grand parents also have to leave ? But who will accept them ? Others will say they were not born here. How can we make a mockery of ourselves and our registry which is an honored legal document and if any citizen is not registered 20 or 30 or 40 years back, will we have to call the dead and buried officers or parents who are not alive today ? Lot of people never even knew that they had to registered at birth !! When we started our own family, we had no idea of paying water  and sewage tax  . If the marriage is at a very young age, the young couple may not know lot of rules and regulations. It may be a good idea to include these in the curriculum.

In short all mismanagement starts in our own home. our own church. our own school, our own hospitals, our own country . We cannot blame our neighboring countries for such ill treatment of our citizens . All of a sudden we behave as if we are all 100 % perfect people without any sort of fault in personal, political, religious official dealings. How can we be so perfect . When we recognize our own human feeble nature, then only we can forbear with others, be kind and compassionate and good to them.

Consider each person you meet as the apple of the eye of their parents, their spouse, their family . Consider each person as precious as yourself. As valuable as

yourself . If nobody consider you precious and valuable, then we can understand our misconduct to others !!! Only what you received, only what you possess , you can share with others. If in your “ heart and brain bank “ there is no love, kindness, sincerity, faithfulness, honesty, justice, satisfaction , contentment, happiness and  pride in being an Indian, then how can you express what is not in your heart and mind. An empty heart devoid of all noble characteristics will immediately be filled with the characteristics of the opposite types and then we know what the result will be . Every day the news in TV and newspaper reveals which type of characteristics were dominant in  our people. Either good or wicked characteristics. The choice is ours. We produce results accordingly . We cannot blame our neighboring countries for these .
