AN ATTEMPT TO END THE 10 INDIRECT SOCIAL EVILS LURKING WITHIN!
Yes..The ten headed Ravan within me sure need to be killed on this Festival Day thru' a sincere attempt from my end by having a thorough look into the 10 wrong thoughts and the related attitudes discretely embedded within me simultaneously replacing them with the corresponding right ones thus..
'I have all of my possessions intact with me and all of the so called my people too are very much around me..'
A contempt attitude towards people..
REPLACING THAT WITH
'I may have all of my possessions intact with me but more important is that all my people are very much around me..'
A loving attitude towards people!
'I am fully the owner of these possessions as they were inherited by me from my ancestors and further developed through my hard work..'
Strong attachment for possessions..
REPLACING THAT WITH
'I am only just a Trustee to these possessions even though these were inherited by me from my ancestors and further developed through my hard work..'
Lessened attachment for possessions!
'I have an absolute right here to use my possessions and thus lead a life of fulfillment nothing less..'
Superficial understanding of one's rights and responsibilities..'
REPLACING THAT WITH
'I may have an absolute Right here to use my possessions but that is just to lead a decent life alone nothing more..'
Deeper understanding of one's rights and responsibilities!
'When I thus live through this luxury, that alone is my happiness and there alone lies a meaning to my life..'
More enjoyment conscious..
REPLACING THAT WITH
'When I thus live through this decency, that alone is my happiness and there alone lies a meaning to my life..'
Lessened enjoyment!
'All along in my life, people will be coming to and going away from me..'
A certain hatred for people's normal behavior..
REPLACING THAT WITH
'All along in my life, people will naturally be coming to me and equally be going away from me..'
Understanding the reality of life!
'They may be smiling at me but they have their own interests.. And meeting their interests alone is their sole aim and in the process they would be trying to get their works done through me..'
An indignation feeling towards others..
REPLACING THAT WITH
'They may be smiling at me but they have their own priorities.. And meeting that is naturally their interest and in the process they would be trying to get their works done through me..'
A True Caring Attitude for others!
'Pretending to be on my side, they would do their own jobs for max time and would fend themselves in total..'
A condemning attitude everywhere..
REPLACING THAT WITH
'Being on my side alone, they can do their jobs in time and thus can take care of themselves well..'
Supportive for the Cause!
'I wish they be with me too for a good amount of time and further be helpful to me the maximum..'
Maximum expectation..
REPLACING THAT WITH
'I wish they do this well as much as possible and beyond alone be helpful to me if needed..'
Minimum expectation!
'If I stress on that a bit firmly, no one is really prepared to be with me so easily including people in my close circles..'
An ever doubting nature of people..
REPLACING THAT WITH
'Here, I should never stress on my requirement, as all are really prepared to be with me including people in my close circles..
Believing beyond with care!
'And that way seen, no one is really with me especially in times of crisis.. I feel sad that I am really lonely with so many of the so called my people around..'
A desperate lost feeling..
REPLACING THAT WITH
'And that way seen, every one is really with me all the time.. I feel happy that I am never lonely in my life with so many of my people around..'
A contented and happy feeling!

The ten head of Ravan (ten social evils) you would like to kill this Dassera. Atrocities on women? Judging beauty by skin colour? or some others? And in which order? #RavanVadhh
Keywords: Indispire, RavanVadhh, kill, 10 headed
When I put the prompt, I thought people will mostly write about the evil social customs. However, you post enlightens to a greater aspect, i.e. habits and attitude embedded in our inner psyche.
ReplyDeleteThis post could come only from a highly experienced person. Agree that one will be a lot happier if he sheds the attitudes you mentioned very aptly in your post.
Yes.. Saket.. No doubt the social evils around us..Each and every one of it according to the severity has got to checked and rooted out but the very root thought behind all these evils should equally be checked and foremost should first be checked so that I become a better personality in my life.. That's exactly where the gist of the Post lies.. Thanks for the nice comment from you, the very author of this Prompt!
DeleteVery nice take of the prompt, a different but deep view.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jyotirmoy.. It's nice to hear from you this appreciation.. Best Wishes!
DeleteIt is nothing short of a panacea for all ills plaguing our society!
ReplyDeleteRightly said Uppalji.. The root cause.. Thanks for the appreciative comment!
DeleteAgain a beautiful prompt Sir
ReplyDeleteThanks Hemendra.. Love the comment!
Deletewhy only attempt sir
ReplyDeleteThat's because it's one of the toughest jobs in my life but still can be attempted and progressed in the right spirit if done steadily.. In fact, it's one of our ethical responsibilities to adhere to this discipline as much in our life.. Thanks for the good query here!
DeleteYou rightly said - we can only attempt....and the feeling of trying can help us stay away from the pride of achievement too....Pride can be a difficult force to tame, one of the main reason for Ravan's downfall.
DeleteYou should become a Baba.
ReplyDeleteThat definition is a matter of different subject, Tomichan.. I just humbly put forward here a few of my thoughts.. Thanks for the nice comment!
DeleteIf each one of us strives towards creating a better self, through the ten steps that you have mentioned here, many many evils will be uprooted Sir.
ReplyDeleteVery, very rightly said, Sunaina.. This discipline originally with me is a great driving force in eradicating many superficial evils around us in all directions.. Thanks for the excellent supportive comment here!
DeleteA beautiful and enlightening post, Sir :)
ReplyDeleteThat's nice of you to say so Purba.. A nice appreciative comment here!
DeleteWhat a fine compilation! I second your mentioned perspective Sreedhar sir. :) In my opinion, change in psychic attitude is a very subtle process that occurs naturally. That magic moment of change occurs only after passing through a dark phase in life. Until and unless anybody hits hard at the bottom, they do not value the importance of the blessed virtues of being human!
ReplyDeleteSo classic is the comment Jyotika.. You just spoke the Truth of life as is.. You are very right.. It's truly the blessing in one's life when he/she experiences a part of this oneness in our lives.. Thanks for the best comment here and double thanks for joining the site!
DeleteAnd once again thanks for promoting the Post on G+!
