A NEW CASTE SYSTEM IS GROWING IN MODERN INDIA


In America, workers are divided into tow categories,

       (A)     Blue Collar Worker, who do the manual jobs
       (B)   White Collar Worker, who do the work on chairs n desks.

        In my INDIA, same phenomenon is known as caste system. My friends, let me clear here the term Caste System. I am not discussing here the traditional caste system (Brahimin, Kshtriya, Vaishya & Shudra). My interest in this article is to introduce you the most dangerous aspect of unwanted caste system produced by our Modern Society in Modern India.

Our Modern Society is divided into four (4) types of people (Caste)
  1.       Educated people
  2.       Warriors
  3.       Traders and businessmen
  4.       Labour
          
          I know for different people the nomenclature may be different but no one can escape of this division.

          Every organisation or system works on it...from “Head” to “Foot Soldier (Peon)”. Let me explain this term “Peon”. The word Peon came from Medieval Latin word “Pedomen” which means “Foot Soldier”. If every system is following this scenario then question arises, 
             
                                                                            “What is the Problem?”

          If one skill or profession becomes a hereditary gift then it shuts the society down. I will call this problem, “Lack of Mobility”. Let me explain this terminology with the help of one simple question. Is good education is freely and fairly accessible for each and every citizen? I know, on paper it is but where on ground? Think, if you were the son / daughter of a billionaire or a famous person!!!!

                                                       When this problem arises- From the Ancient India? 

          Valmiki was a dacoit, Vyasa was from a fisherman’s family, Vishwamitra was a soldier. All these were not from a special caste. Takshila was one of the greatest centre of learning for the world. It was not just a centre of spiritual science but also the centre for crafts & skills as well as military science. Chanakya, Charaka (The greatest Surgeon) and Panini (The great Grammarian) was the product of this institution.

       Lets come back to The Modern India. We are  growing in each and every field. Our education standard is also growing but what about Education system? 
Is there any criteria to get education for a street kid? I know many of us will say..!!! Option is same for everyone. Same entrance exam and then education. But my friends, what is the authenticity of these entrance exams? A special class of students are trained to creak these exams, and they do easily. What for this street child? Who will train him? I am not saying that, there should be a separate, free of cost centers for these kind of children. 

Why not there is a change in selection process.

         This current selection process can’t give each and every child the same chance to get same education. Should we say it a fair method. No...i’ll not. May be, we are losing a great thinker, scientist, engineer, doctor etc. because of this education system.

          This education system is so poor, that a special caste (Above 4 division of people) will get same education and same rank. There is no Mobility. India needs Mobility.


         The day, when anyone from any background with any level of resources at his / her hand in society has the ability to reach the top  , only then we can say “INDIA IS SHINING".......!!!!!!!!

औरत: पुरुष की नज़र में उसकी औकात

Image
            औरत नागरिक है. इस लोकतान्त्रिक देश में एक स्त्री पंचायत की, विधानसभा की, संसद आदि की दावेदार है, फिर भी उसके मन में कुछ तीखे सवाल क्यों उठते है? ऐसा क्या है जो अफसर, अधिकारी आदि पदों की प्राप्ति के बावजूद औरत को हमेशा नीचे पटक देता है? योग्यता, कौशल, क्षमता तथा अनुभव में एक स्त्री पुरुष से आगे है, फिर भी कहा जाता है की दो शब्दों में उसकी औकात बता देंगे. आखिर ऐसा कौन सा हथियार है जो उसकी औकात को स्पष्ट करता है?           हमारे संस्कारों की परंपरा में  "मान्यता" एक बहुत बड़ा शब्द है, क्यूंकि जिन शब्दों को मान्यता में जोड़ा गया है, उन्हें आपराधिक नहीं माना जाता. जरा सोचिये पुरुषो द्वारा जो अपशब्द, गालियाँ दी जाती है, वो किसको संबोधित करती है? हम लोगो ने कभी इस पर चिंतन मनन नहीं किया. इसका कारण यह है की ये हमारे संस्कारों का एक हिस्सा है. जितनी भी गालियां गढ़ी गयी है, उनका सम्बन्ध सिर्फ औरत से ही होता है. जो गालियाँ पुरुष आपस में एक दुसरे को बड़ी कुशलता से देते है, वो ये नहीं सोचते की इससे म...

शिष्य से विद्यार्थी तक .................

मैंने कहीं पढ़ा था कि एक अच्छा शैक्षणिक संस्थान वही है जहा गुरु व शिष्य एक साथ ज्ञान कि खोज करते है।  यहाँ मैंने शिक्षा अथवा सूचना शब्द न चुनकर ज्ञान को चुना है ।  सूचना एवं ज्ञान में भी भिन्नता है। सूचना अतीत से मिलती है, जबकि ज्ञान भीतर से प्रस्फुटित होता है। ज्ञान को  गुरु  ही  प्रदान करता है ।  सूचना की एक अवधि होती है लेकिन ज्ञान सर्वकालिक होता है इसिलए गुरु का दायित्व ज्ञान के द्वारा अपने शिष्यों के चरित्र का निर्माण करना है।  वास्तविक रूप में शिक्षा का आशय है ज्ञान, ज्ञान का आकांक्षी है - शिक्षार्थी और इसे उपलब्ध कराता है शिक्षक। तीनों परस्पर एक-दूसरे पर निर्भर हैं। एक के बगैर दूसरे का अस्तित्व नहीं। संपूर्ण जगत में मात्र एक शिक्षक ही है जो समाज का कोई भी रोल अदा कर सकता है वह सखा है, पिता है, संरक्षक है, पथ-प्रदर्शक है, समाजसेवी है तो चाणक्य सामान राजनीतिकार भी है। अभी हाल ही में किसी राज्य के चुने हुये उम्दा, मेहनती और ज्ञानी शिक्षकों के समूह से मिलने का सौभाग्य मिला। बैठे बैठे सोच रहा था कि मेरे शिक्षक और आज के शिक्षक दोनों मे क...

WAKE UP GUYS.....INDIA NEEDS YOU

Around 600 million people in India comes in age group of 15-29 which is equal to the population of USA and Western Europe. According to ECI we have 675 million voters in which 40% are youth but the voting turnout of youth in the 2009 general election was between 20-25%. Where we were at that time:partying, updating our status or photos. In the world’s biggest democratic country when we get chance to vote, we can leave it for a movie, just by saying – “Yaar voting station pe line lambi thi”. Queue doesn’t matter when we are standing at ticket window of a multiplex. If you don’t vote than you have no right to say anything about Government. I have always seen youth talking about corrupt politicians even I do. But, what about joining politics? We just have 17% of youth politicians in India. These statistics don’t allow us to complain against the oldies. We have 600 million youth and we don’t have 11 dudes to kick a ball, We don’t have anyone like Rafael Nadal, Usain Bolt, Michael...
