think different

Rather hang yourself than belong to the  horde of succesful imitators. Imitation is a good training ship but it will never fly the flag of the admiral! Sri Aurobindo.  The world today is sinking deeper and deeper in a morass of mediocrity. Everywhere people are preferring to remain content with ordinary norms of conduct rather than strive for excellence. Children today are taught to follow the past traditions rather than think for themselves. Hero worship is being encouraged as never before! The Media is obsessed with showing popular and cheap entertainment. The Philistine rules the world-making a succesful living has become the ideal which everybody is compelled to emulate.

There is hardly any originality to be found anywhere! Science,Music,Arts,Literature and Culture have come to a standstill. Children have not heard of masters like Socrates,Plato,Vinci,Van Gogh,Beethoven,Valmiki,Chaplin,Einstein or Kalidas.Michael Jackson,Weiber,Madonna or Maradona are the superstars of today. Drugs,alcohol,sex and loud music are the cultural norms of today's youth!
It is absolutely imperative to keep the sense of wonder and awe alive in us.Always dream of achieving something magnificient and sublime!Life is full of uncertainities and mysteries and the warriors are always ready to face the unexpected.
The world today is on the verge of a revolution! Unless we make a complete break with the past the future will be bleak for mankind.
