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?
