Yes from today I begin my journey.... on the philosophical note and the first thing I am going to talk about is the laws of life that govern us.
LAWS OF LIFE:
Well through my experience what I have realized is that these are the following laws that actually goven our lives in some form or the other:
1. The Legal system
2. The laws of the environment you are in . e.g. following civic and traffic laws,if you are
in the college then following the college rules of attendence,giving exams,in job the same situation etc etc.
3. The social laws:
1.Well the first law,the legal system is something which you can do nothing about and it is this actually if we tend to follow then it serves our purpose of giving us justice ans security. Though it curtails our freedom in one respect,but gives us some other freedom in a greater bargain.The concept of society would be gone without this.
2. The laws governing the environment. Well this is a law which is similar to the legal system but does not form the rigid structure of the society and the nation as the legal system as a whole. Though following again these laws would be inhibiting for our freedom,but gives us alot in return.
For e.g. if we were to follow traffic rules then it certainly does curtail our freedom but in return gives us the freedom from accidents in return.
3. The social laws: this is the segment that I find questioning and worth fighting with. Social laws are the laws which do not form the structure of the society,now our environment and is followed through passive compliance. The more backward a society is the questionable are these social laws. In some where or the other it is these social laws that actually curtail the freedom an individual. You can't have inter religion marriage, you must follow so and so social code, the rich who are already rich must always be respected..... you must not try to grow extra ordinary, you must always be in the rat race, you must not be alone and only focus on your work, you must always listen to your parents,teachers,priests etc even if you are right and they are wrong. These social laws give birth to mediocrity in the society. Because of these social laws and the concept of inter dependability makes an individual mediocre...... How well one post would not suffice an answer to this question... so I will try and answer this phenomenal question through a series of post like SOCIAL LAWS-I SOCIAL LAWS-II and so on.
But here I shall give you an example:
The social laws states that the topper is supreme. Who is the topper....he is a topper as compared to the rest of the class. So what does he need to top? Study? Of course.... but more important then that... get marks. If you look at things practically what happens: how does a topper get marks. By having a good impression on the teacher,by having good attendence,writing with good handwriting in the exam,always respecting your teacher,never objecting your teacher in the class,studying only what is taught in the class,studying only what the teacher has taught and no other interpretation of it,one does not add any value of its own to the subject,having good previous academic record in the previous semesters,not showing your crative ability on the paper,writing with different coloured pens in the exams,always,wearing glasses and looking simple so that the teacher thinks you are a simple person,trying to get intimate with the teacher by asking just the question which he can answer and showing your false interest in him,even though he has taught crap in the class......by always complaining to the teacher about other students,back stabbing fellow mates with a grin..... well follow these always and I assure you,if someone gets 80%,chances are 40% includes these stuff........So if you wanna be a topper follow theses.But let me promise you something.....you shall be devoid of deep command in the subject that you study and will never be able to develop your insights and creativity......I leave it to your jurisdiction
I have some urgent work today.... have to cover up some other things... so lets catch you later..forth coming posts now will be on a similar theme so just watch out.
till then
