There are certain things that are still outraging and monochromatic in the minds of many Indians,either these perceptions are part of their ancestral or by myth.I feel some views from many Indians need to be cleared and given some exact clear-cut reasons behind them.
Here are some obsessions that India need to culminate from its mythical and outrageous imaginations
- Its obsession on GOD- Indians are strongly believed to be cultural and believers of god's existence .but that doesn't mean the rest of the world don't believe in god and trust religion,Indians are always hyped and of course have a strong belief in rituals,heavenly things, traditions.so what it is the obsession here, i feel that are we only preaching gods and not what gods preached ????? because in all these years i have seen Indians believing in god , i couldn't feel they ever talked about what various gods spoke, the amount of fights,riots,unethical views on religion,heirship of god,have led me to ask this question to me,Be it Christians,Hindu,Muslims,Jain,Sikhs,Buddhist anybody for that matter, i couldn't feel they talked about love ,peace,secularism,unity,discipline,ethics,honesty,non-violence ,hope and optimism. Because these are things that are taught out of our religions,but have a question that these things have really intercede the minds and souls of Indians.
Lord Krishna -When you can find this entire world as one, there is unity and peace in the world
Lord Jesus Christ-If you cannot love your brother whom you see,how can you love me,who is not visible
Prophet Mohammad-Indeed, an ignorant man who is generous is dearer to God than a worshiper who is miserly
Are we preaching this............????????
- Obsession on Skin tone and Beauty - Sounding silly,don't be ! Cosmetics is one of India's high earning businesses,the problem arises from the myth of skin creams which can transform our face tone just in a week, how is it possible?? are we cheated on our ignorance,how can we change the sun's angle of rays falling on India?,how can we change our Genes?,how can we change the fact that Indians are tan and dusk?.so where is the issue all about, of course with the mindset,we believe being fair and pretty is an unwritten confident quotient,without that we cannot live.we are so obsessed with the color and appearance that we think people from other part of the country doesn't belong to India itself,How shocking !!!, Westerners aren't feeling they are fair looking, so why should we think we are dark?.there is nothing wrong in looking smart,beautiful and carrying yourself ,it is essential part of modern world.but we are best at being ourselves.because, Nelson mandala,Gandhi,Obama,Rajnikanth, Peraringr Anna,Periyar had their different quotients of confidence now its not their appearance stands after decades,its absolutely their actions.

- Obsessions on Cricket -Not to be given any special mention to it, it is a clear-cut obsessions in India, its indeed one of the undefined religion on the government gazettes.It is such a huge power ,at times it has been the game changer in politics and even change of governments.but we shouldn't forget that they are other sports that need to be appreciated as well.we almost forgot that Hockey is our national game.can we imagine the amount of money that is playing under the pure effervescence of the sport(cricket).It is nothing new the most demanded is commercialized in India.but It is has not only led to spoil the spirits of cricket but also vanished the other sports.but good to hear other sports are also encouraged like tennis,kabbadi,hockey,football through league games and it is actually kindling the interest of other games also in the midst of youth.A mindset has to come for the sports authority of India,the Government,sports people and parents for equally encouraging boxing, athletics, archery,volley ball,basket ball,etc.let us not count the medals won in the Olympics but eagerly watch out the medal list .let us not play money minded rather play any game with true spirits.hardly we get to know and appreciate the amount of laurels players bring on other sports,we hardly recognize them,support them sponsor them and even know their names.there are ultimate talents prevailing with the youth of India, with various sports talents.let them not be unspoken since they cant be commercialized and cant find some good business out of it.Cricket is indeed India's favorite sport and we are the rulers in it.we have achieved so much that would be archived .there are true inspirations from this game. Nevertheless wish a day is never long that India can host the Olympics ,FIFA ,F1 racing,Wimbledon,etc on our grounds. let us encourage other sports and also prove that we aren't only the kings of cricket but also other games.
Sachin Tendulkar-And that is the reason why this victory is great, because different players have made contributions to the win.
Are we making contributions for the holistic victory of India's sports portfolio...????
- Obsessions on Cinema - The Entire world knows Indians are obsessed over cinema and entertainment,no wonder Indian film fraternity produces world's highest number of movies.so what's the obsession and taboo over it, of course its fun to always watch cinema on the festive seasons along with friends and family, hangout with friends every Friday,but the problems arises when we started assuming actors as Gods,the amount of fetish we have over cinema is that we almost worship actors,we do every rituals we used to do for religious gods to these film artists and people belonging to the field.It is always good to inherit good values from them, the hard work they've put to come to the levels they achieved,inspire them and adore them.but falling in love with blindly is utter non-sense,riots over them,outrageous talks supporting them,ridiculous conversation whether they'll come to politics or not, will they marry or not, how manyth spouse they living with ,will they release their movies on time or not.The conversations that is overriding in the social media sites about them is utter stupidity.another issue with so called cinema lovers is that, the creator must produce a movie according their wish,their religion,their customs,how come this is possible?? and if it is overruled, they'll strike,break riots,disaster the theaters,tumble the actor's house,why are the fellow Indians so obsessed with purely entertaining field,where there are so many important issues that need to addressed in our society and country.people outside India look at watching movies is part of entertainment,having fun, the fun culminates at the doors of the theaters itself,but in our country it has become a part and parcel of our lives,24x7 we breathe,talk,live with cinemas.
