"Moral Policing"

I just hate this phrase. Simply because it has become a tool to use it criminally against certain groups. My parents, and even every other parent, does a bit of 'policing' to upkeep the morality of their children, especially the girls. Why do they do that? Why couldn't they just let them grow with their own intellect to understand the world? Why do a mother object her daughter wearing skirts above the knee or a top that is not so covering? Why there are parents who, though not making it obvious, are careful of what their daughters or sons do? If I had a daughter I would be protective about her too.

They are the first ones to make rules for people to follow and live within morals. Only Islam issues fatwa against those of its followers who do not abide by the Islamic law to the last detail. Hinduism or Christianity do not have equival...

Sarvam Brahmamayam

Everything belongs to Brahma Sadasiva Brahmendra believed to have composed this sometime between 16th and 18th century AD. The simplicity of this composition is mind boggling. I add the lyrics and the meaning below here. Priya Sisters, the wonderful duo have rendered the song excellently well. I loved the neraval part of 'sadaaa' in the third charanam. If you dwelve into the feel of the song along with the depth of meaning in the lyrics, I am sure tears jerk off your eye with exstacy. Lyrics: Raag: Darbaari Kaanada Pallavi Sarvam brahma mayam rE rE Sarvam brahma mayam Charanam Kim vachaneeyam kima vachaneeyam ..(what can be spoken what cannot be spoken) Kim rachaneeyam kima rachaneeyam...(what can be created/written or not created/written) Sarvam brahma mayam ...............(all belongs to Him / Brahma is everywhere) Kim paTaneeyam kima paTaneeyam .....(what can be read and what cannot be read) Kim bhajanIyam kima bhajanIyam ....(what can be...

...achievements of Indians outside India? Last night I watched the news clipping on Piyush “Bobby” Jindal becoming of Governor of Louisiana, USA. His cousins and relatives were extremely happy...they danced crazily in their house in India. Everyone of them exclaimed that he makes Indians proud!!! I always wonder how these people really do that!!??? I read more of him on the internet. I find... His article in a Catholics web issue Piyush "Bobby" Jindal Religious lies He being attached in a TV interview How Indian is he? What is his lifetime contribution to India or Indians? How much does he know indepth of his own State in India as much he knows about Louisiana, accepted that he was born there. But him becoming a Governor of a State in the US makes Indians proud???? I am equally surprised at how Kalpana Chawla or Sunita Lyn Williams are anyway Indians at heart? Sunita had hardly visited India in her lifetime, Kalpana did only once or twice. We are proud of these???? I feel w...
