(Unabashedly
...slave to a ubiquitous menace!)
The world that looked colourful yesterday is now ashen. If you visualize
red, pink and blue then it’s nothing but delusion. Artifice , Artfully, Articulate.
Some sort of mutation has made hypocrisy, an indispensable trait of the genes
and mind you this trait has no recessive gene. Ideals and principles are so
capricious today than one could have ever imagined. Hypocrisy has shrouded all ideals,
views, statements. It camouflages every moment.
Everything is subject to calculations, profit and loss. And when actions are smeared with avarice, compromising concrete ideals by being obsequious becomes an easy task. Every moment we masquerade ourselves as a completely new individual befitting to the present milieu. The lust for the acme has gagged frankness and kidnapped honesty. The call of the inner voice or conscience is often shrugged off and truthfulness, it’s long lost. Nevertheless, even amidst connivance of the mass the allegiance of few obdurate numskulls towards their conscience may help vanquish LUCIFER......

it takes time to realise and fathom that hypocrisy is one of the greatest verities of life...every moment u cant behave pellucid coz the world wud be too hard a place for u to live in then...i dnt support hypocrisy but i think its taken another sobriquet under it namely "compromise"...
ReplyDeletebeautiful thoughts to cogitate over n def sensible parlance!!!

ReplyDeletei understand that relaity is opposite of wat we imagine.....but i had to pen down my suffocation n frustration.............even being well aware tat i am also a part of the same bandwagon...........but somehow i feel choked.........trying to b ur true self cud b so difficult...........its hard for me to fathom............
@siddhant
ReplyDeletei know all hav their innocent dreams of becoming rama..........but as time flies......n as they enter the real world........the innocent dreams r gulped by the real life nightmares......its true yet disturbing....
But, the pragmatic view? Compromise is not a substitute or simili for hypocrise. Life need not be in black and white, it is never so difficult to live outside the 'bandwagon'.The pseudo-goodwill we collect by playing the 'dirt' game is not worth living, leave alone the humanity.But do we believe in equity and fairness?Strangely, we play roles of 'ghost' insomnia and who knows, we might have become deaf !!
