UNITY IN ACTION
Like Poles, Repel & Unlike Poles, Attract each other, a phenomenon of Science, holds good for human relationship also. Persons of equal Status may have to demagnetise their attitude towards fellow beings, duly changing the Polarity to attract others to our side thereby bringing the desired result. Therefore our outlook on life with a feeling that "those who Run and those who Watch Running" are equal befoore GOD, will help us to reshape the distorted relations between person/party/religion in our society

EGOISTIC FEELINGS
Self respect and Selfishness are different qualities altogether. One who respects himself only can respect others. Self respect identifies the Individual and makes him/her,free of egoistic feelings and enables the individual to see in others, the very nature of him / her, as if through a looking glass. The extrovert tendencies take shape in his/ her consitution and the vision attains a level of sublimity. This status of oneness will drain out the sense of selfishness which erodes the mind and body of any individual.
Association with men & women of righteous nature will always boost up our desire to be self controlled in thought and action and also useful to the society at large. Religious life does not mean that one will only be engaged in Spiritual activities, but he/she will apply their spiritual thoughts in practical use , relating the same with their neighbours,who need assitance in the day to day life. The attitude of the good SAMARITAN is the need of the hour. Theory and practice of religious culture should go hand in hand in our daily routine. Then only we will see a ray of hope in the common man in realising GOD's loving Kundness transmitted to them through others in the neighbourhood.

CONCERN FOR OTHERS
The life on this Earth is a continuous process where everybody plays his/her role in the appropriate time and disappears at the close of the scene after handing over the next part to the person who takes over the STAGE. The concern of each participant on this stage performance, is to maintain the continuity of the chain of acts, during the period of stay on the ARENA. All through this struggle men and women have to mutually support each other, and" wind up" their journey on the final WHISTLE.

ONE IN BODY AND SPIRIT
Therefore, let not our thoughts and action be biased on introvert tendencies, but instead oriented on common interedts benificial to the people at large. Let the Religious faith of a person be his/her choice and let it not be mixed with the harmonious set up of the society by unnecessary exposure. The cream of all faith can be harnessed to nourish the growth of the social structure, to a healthy and peaceful state. Let us put our shoulers together inder ONE YOKE and try to pull out of the DEVIL and his KINGDOM from the face of this MOTHER EARTH , whose children are to be ONE IN BODY AND SPIRIT ...

WORK IS WORSHIP
GOD created all the infrastructural facilities for man before HE put him in charge of all creations, with instructions to Labour and Toil hard to protect himself and his surroundings. Knowing the nature of man GOD imposed certain restrictions on him for peaceful existence with nature. Living by the " Sweat of his Brow" was the guiding principle in man's life. But slowly the devilish mind in him deviated his attitude towards life and he disobeyed the commands of GOD.The Creator purposely gave man the power of distinguishion of good and evil so that he could balance the way of life to suite the circumstances by overpowering Evil tendencies
Disobedience caused disarray in his routine and he became lazy and adopted shortcuts to avoid hardships and perseverance. Carrying out the Works assigned to one particular individual faithfully and without malice is Worship in HIS eyes and the GOD will reward him and bless him continuosly through out his life. But he deviated his life style and sought other ugly means to satify his greed and incurred the displeasure of GOD. He tried to attain mercyand blessings of GOD by penitence and sacrificial living. GOD gives atonement to man only if he tills his land and live a life of his own, helping the poor and the needy. Looking after the poor and lonely is the only way to please GOD and discharging ones duty with full involvement and commitment is the real worship. Anyone dishonestly or carelessly abandons his/her legitimate duty will invite trouble and wrath of GOD in hs/her life.
The present trend of man is to forget totally the will of GOD and try to please HIM by building temples/churches and other places of worship. But while doing so he is nurturing illwill and hatred and disharmony amongst the people. These two . that is trying to please GOD and Satan will not go together! We cannot please GOD unless we take care of the peole around us and share the sorrows and happiness with them. Any amount of penitance and sacrifice will not save us , unless we do our legitimate duty to the society, honestly and devoutly with prejudice to NONE.

DUAL NATURE OF MAN
All creations adore the CREATOR in words and deeds, adoration by way of outward expressions and by way of internal meditation in solitude. Man being the commander-in-chief of all creations has devised methods of controlling both human beings and animals. While exercising the surveillance over the nature he has to adopt DUAL TACTICS to balance his actions without disturbing the inter dependance of the human beings & the animals and also to a certain extent the vegitation. This quality of Dual Nature OR control was gifted by GOD to set right the life style of mankind, by highlighting the GOOD from EVIL. Comparative element was always directing his ideas & thoughts before putting them into action. He always cautioned himself from the Devilish Attitude on account of the higher level of GOD'S NATURE in him , in suduing the damaging actions. The very nature which provides us with the prime necessities in life, viz- AIR-WATER-FIRE to maintain & sustain life has given us also the Wisdom to understand the DUAL QUALITIES of those essential elements.
The qualities of these essential elements are-1) AIR: Gives life & takes away life(Suffocation), 2) WATER: Gives life& takes away life( Drowning), 3) FIRE: Gives life & takes away life( Burning) and 4) FOOD: gives life & takes away life( Over eating). The human beings are vested with the most complex nature of mind. The complexities in man enable him to decide upon the correct solution by tossing the mind in all directions and hit on the positive side to attain the result. Patience & Perseverance are the most needed tools to shape our DUAL THINKING into positive end, beneficial to others. Judicial dispensation of problems confronting the Human beings is the only solution to drive off the Evil nature in man for the bettermentof the Society at large.

Sexual Harassment on Women
AS THE TIME WENT ON, “THE NATURAL MAN” IN HIS/HER QUEST FOR BETTER LIVING CONDITIONS, BECAME GRADUALLY CIVILISED.THE EVIL NATURE IN HIM/HER SLOWLY VANISHED. THE EVIL THOUGHTS WERE BURIED DEEP IN THEIR HEART BY THE GOOD THINGS IN LIFE.
WE HAVE DIFFERENTIATED MANKIND IN SEVERAL RANK&FILE – LIKE, RELIGIOUS HEADS/LEADERS, POLITICAL LEADERS AND ALL OTHERS IN THE DIFFERENT SEGMENTS OF SOCIAL SET UP.” THE APPAREL PROCLAIMS THE MAN”. THE DRESS DEFINITELY DIFFERENTIATES ONE FROM ANOTHER. ONCE WE ARE UNDRESSED / STRIPPED OFF THE MANTLE, GENERALLY WE ALL WILL LOOK THE SAME IN THE PHYSICAL BUILD UP. ALSO WE HAVE THE INBUILT SEXUAL DESIRE, -A NATURAL INSTINCT- WHICH WILL TAKE OVER OUR MIND WHEN THE SURROUNDINGS ARE FAVOURABLE FOR SUCH BEHAVIOUR. THE RECENT HAPPENINGS SHOW THAT THE CARNAL STAGE IN MAN/WOMAN HAVE TAKEN OVER HIS/HER MIND AND TRIGGERED SUCH ACTIONS WHICH CREATED UNHAPPY INCIDENTS IN SOCIAL LIFE.
CARNAL MAN/WOMAN IN ANY SECTOR, RELIGIOUS OR OTHERWISE, MAY HAVE “WOLF IN SHEEP’S SKIN” APPEARANCES IN THEIR ATTITUDE AND BEHAVIOUR IN PUBLIC LIFE. THE NATURAL FEELINGS TOWARDS THE OPPOSITE SEX IS NOT A CRIME. BUT WHEN IT BREAKS ALL NORMS OF SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR, IT BECOMES A SERIOUS AND PUNISHABLE CRIME. THE CARNAL FEELINGS AND EMOTIONAL EXERCISES ON SEXUAL PERFORMANCES, ARE THE HARBINGERS OF THESE CRIMES, THOUGH BLANKETTED AND SHROUDED AND INSULATED BY THE SOCIAL CUSTOMS, MORAL TEACHINGS AND THE LAW OF THE LAND. DUE TO EROSION OF POLITICAL WILL AND ADMINISTRATIVE LACONA, THE “MIND INSULATION” IS RUPTURED, EXPOSING THE MIND & BODY FULLY TO THE SEXUAL DESIRES-REACHING TO AN UNACCEPTABLE RANGE. SO WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL IN SECURING THE INSULATING MEDIUM AND RESTORE THE SPIRITUALITY IN THE HEARTS OF THE PEOPLE TO SAFE GUARD FROM THE CLUTCHES OF THE DEVIL, WHO IS PROMPTING US TO COMMIT SUCH UNHOLLY CRIME. IN ANY CASE, THE OFFENDER MUST BE PUNISHED ACCORDING TO THE LAW OF THE LAND, WITHOUT ANY INTERFERENCE BY THE POILITICIANS OR ANYONE FOR THAT MATTER.

POLITICS IN INDIA
THE RECENT TRENDS IN THE POLITICAL SCENARIO MAKE ME FEEL BAD, AND I WOULD LIKE TO EXDPRESS MY FEELINGS IN WORDS , WHICH MAY NOT BE PALATABLE FOR MANY, BUT FOR SOME.
POLITICALLY INFATUATED PERSON WILL ENTER THE POLITICS WITH A POLICY AND CONTINUES IN THAT FOR SOME TIME. AS HE/SHE MATURES HIMSELF/HERSELF IN THE PARTY POLITICS AND ITS TRADE SECRETS, HE/SHE WILL TAKE A TURN FORGETTING THE ORIGINAL LINE OF ACTION AND BEHAVES LIKE AN INTROVERT, SUCCUMBIING TO DIFFERENT FORCES. HE/SHE THEN JOINS OTHER “LINKS” IN SEARCH OF GREENER PASTURES!
THIS CATEGORY OF POLITICAL AGENTS IS A DANGEROUS SET OF PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE SINCERITY AND TENACITY OF PURPOSE IN THEIR PUBLIC LIFE. NOW A DAYS PARTY SPLITS IN ARITHMETIC PROPORTIONS AND WAITS FOR AN OPPORTUNITY TO JOIN HANDS WITH ANOTHER. ALL DEPEND ON THE PERSONAL GAIN UNDER THE COVER OF SOME POLITICAL INFLUENCE. SUCH HAPPENNINGS ARE SEEN IN THE POLITICAL GROUPS WHICH ALWAYS SWING FROM ONE PARTY TO ANOTHER AND ALSO SWINDLE MONEY & POWER FOR PERSONAL GRATIFICATION.
MR. KARUNAKARAN THE VETERAN LEADER OF THE CONGRESS GROUP, DELINKED HIS POLITICAL ALLIANCE FROM HIS PARTY IN WHICH HE WAS VITUALLY “BORNE & BROUGHT UP”. THEN HIS SON ENTERED INTO THE GREENER PASTURES. SIMILAR FAEATURES WERE SEEN IN THE POLITICAL VEDANTHA OF LATE P.J.CHACKO & HIS SON P.C.THOMAS, WITH A DIFFERENT OUTLOOK. THE CHEMICAL EQUATION IN POLITICS, FOR BOTH THE CASES, IS THE SAME -REVERSIBLE OR IRREVERSIBLE- I DO NOT KNOW?
WE HAVE TO THINK VERY SERIOUSLY ON THIS TYPE OF POLITICAL GAME OF AFFILIATION /AFFINITY AND FIND OUT A SOLUTION TO CURB SUCH OCCURENCES. THE POLITICAL POLUTIONS SHOULD END AND WE SHOULD HAVE A STRICT COMPLIANCE OF RULES REGULATING THEIR PUBLIC SERVICE. THAT IS, NOT MORE THAN 2 YEARS BY A PERSON AS AN MLA OR MP.
UNLESS THIS RESCTRICTION IS IMPOSED, WE WILL RUN INTO DIFFICULTIES AND MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RECOVER OURSELVES, FROM THE DISASTEROUS END WAITING FOR THE MOTHER LAND

TOTAL ANARCHY IN KERALA
KERALA THE LAND OF GOD- NOW THE DEVIL’S
The men in authority in Kerala have lost reasons and now act indifferently in all that happen daily in our public life. Political factions playing a major role in the daily happenings in the social structure, fracturing and fragmenting it into pieces, thereby causing irrecoverable loss to life and property. We are slipping into a deep trench due to the daily agitations and destructive activities of the different policy makers and ideologists, who trigger their party men to these hooliganisms. The stench, coming out of these trenches is polluting the whole public life and we are slowly drifting off into a point of no return. The struggle amongst the parties goes on, each party trying to excel in their policies and ideologies in public administration. Disruption of normal life is a common occurrence, due to unruly agitators belonging to the Ruling group and the opposition groups. It gives me the feeling that we are worse than the Conspirators of Julius Caesar’s time, where, they ran amuck killing people on the road. Now the situation prevailing in Kerala is Total ANARCHY. The Rulers and the party Leaders are hiding “behind the stacks” and avoid remedial measures for fear of WHAT?
The police officials do not act as “Security Guards” of the people and they deliberately avoid their duty as per the Police Manual and the INTENDED MISSION of police in public life. What can be the remedy for this threatening situation?. The remedy lies in the observance of the Law of the Land by the appropriate authority without Fear or Favour. Once the culprits know that procedures are delayed and go on dragging for years, they do not hesitate to commit any crime-even butchering people-. They know, that even after their natural death, the decision of the legal procedures against them will be PENDING WITH THE COURT!.
Now the concept END JUSTIFIES THE MEANS must END. The Means Justifies the END must resurrect to save mankind, before the humanity PERISH under the “LAWLESSNESS” marching daily in our Streets of KERALA.
