Violence

There have been several bomb blasts in Indian Cities recently. Painfully, in several parts of the World it is a routine.

Once again innocent civilians have suffered death and destruction in the hands of people who do not value LIFE.

As a result, sane and wise ones will grieve and practice restraint and try to promote Peace.

Insane ones will retaliate and bring in more sufferings to themselves and others.

The suffering Mind deliberates on the cause and prevention of violence and rolls back to Mahatma Gandhi.....

"If Eye for an Eye was the solution, soon the entire World will be Blind"

MIND continues to wander...

Sooner or later Law will catch up with the culprits and punish them. Will the manmade Law prevent future occurrences of violence? Will it address the root cause - Ignorance? Apart from punishing the guilty, can it bring the real understanding of the Law of Nature? The only Law which is above all boundaries?

Can understanding of the Law of Nature, eradicate violence within?

Is knowing the Path without walking on it possible?

Rightly said sir. When it will end god knows. Lets hope for the best. As

Ending para is good. But that seems impossible...People who have lost their beloved relatives, will never accept forgiving part.

Abhijit,

As you mentioned, although on the face value it is difficult to accept the loss of near and dear ones and retaliation may seem the only option. But it is not difficult.

True understanding of Laws of Nature by everyone will certainly help people to come out of reactionary way of Life. A good understanding of Cause and Effect combined with a calm mind will help people to take more positive approach to Life and help them cut through the vicious circle of action and reaction. With a little effort, this change is possible. That will be walking on the path and realization of Compassion practiced by Jesus Christ rathar than reading the scriptures and talking about it.

If non-violence can bring freedom to Nations, it will certainly help people achieve personal freedom and pave the way for their liberation.

How is it that the police who did not have an idea that these kinds of violent activities were in store for them upto the time of happening, suddenly start arresting some or the other persons, only to release them on bail, days, months or at times years after the arrest???

seems, the non-violent, bear it all attitude is rightly being practiced by the powers that are ruling India.

This was for the first time the opposition balmed the ruling party of the blasts. How can leaders and people balme one another on a catastrophe? We should blame ourselves, the leaders should blame themselves as till date why we have not succeeded in educating people on tolerance, and the aftermath of violence. Have they ever seen the homes of people who suffer after losing their loved ones.. With Grief I have to say It takes years and years even decades to get out of that shock. Let our leaders and those who violate know, what a home is made of, and do not play with lives of people for their vicious purpose.
