Relationship Vs Relativity


As usual we were standing in that roadside restaurant in Chennai for morning breakfast. I made my life so simple and delegate. Many of us would not be aware of what is happening inside a top-chef's kitchen. But some delicious high class hygienic food can be obtained from normal restaurants like where I am standing in Chennai. Since I eat philosophy as my food, and already I am weighing so much caused as a side effect by the intake of some psychiatric medicines, the numbness of my limbs and nerves has made my food intake lesser but hygienic food. I had to depend on somebody to take me for my breakfast or food. One such young boy started talking with me

He: Anna, you are always talking in the sense of whole humanity. But nobody is thinking in the same way. Everybody is cheating others. Nobody is having respect on each other. How could a whole human kind as you talk of will appear in the society.

Me: You are right. We are divided into individuals, groups, communties, religions, states, nations etc, But can you deny the fact that all belong to the same race, Human race – The Whole Mankind. No one can deny it. Who has made such divisions. Isn't it we ourselves? We divide ourselves as races, by language we speak, by the color we have. The only thing I know is Human can be divided into Gender – Male and Female. Rest I don't know.

He: I know it Anna. I have heard from you, from J.Krishnamurti everyone. But the whole humanity as you speak off is stuck up at one thing isn't it? The Culture?

Me: You are talking about culture. I will call it as civilization. Civilization in history actually sculpted culture. Do you know one open bare fact, you can find it in wikipedia, In India they discovered a skeleton of homosapien of about more than 12000 years old proving man existed in this land even 12000 years back. India is also having a known civilization history of about 5600 years. It is what we are following. But the same in terms of America, a known history of about only 500 to 600 years. We don't know the actual history of Native Americans called Red Indians. There are also other group called “Mayans”. Years long of human history also tells us about how we got civilised and how we get culture.

He: Yes. Still this is groupism right.

Me: Yes. But can you tell the answer how there is a significance of same sound(sonance) in what we call “Mother”, “Father” - Ma, pap, Mom, Papa etc., How nations far away too have the same words. Languages have been lent all over the world, is it the right answer? That too in a period of no significant communication as of now. No mobiles, no facebook nothing that time.

He: Won't there be any travellers, who crossed the borders?
