Wives wanted but not daughters

Disgusting,shocking and unbelieveable.That actually are not appropriate words for a henious crime being done on yourself and an innocent life within you.What could actually be done for reducing or banning such illegal activities stands before us as a mountainous task.A few years from now and a few states of india will face a huge shortage of girls.Now that the ratio of female to male stands at 940\1000,this could create a further imbalance with more and more clinics conducting the banned sex-determinig tests.The state of the maharajas which reports of approx. 300 female child being aborted daily is by no doubt a national shame.Every man needs a women but not all fathers wish for a daughter.You dont have to break your brains or conduct debates to get to the reason for this unjust and uncaliberated way of thinking.It is very simple.A word which has no relevancy may be anywhere in the world except two places one in india and the other in the dictionary.Yes 'Dowry' the five letter word which is the cry,the tears and the voice of women, and which has the power to crush , suppress and kill.Since freedom many leaders and social activists have been trying to banish this cheap system of marriage making this subject an agenda of their speeches and causes of struggle but the results were as bare as leafless trees(forget the fruit)and to no avail.It is a shame for a country to be independant for 65 years and continue to be a slave of an unethical and weak enemy called the dowry.Though a punishable offence it is still shamefully Prevailing in all the sections of the society and in the many nooks and corners of india making girls an object of trade and a burden for parents which solely acounts for such mass illegal female infanticide.May be some day a leader would be born who would irradicate this deadly virus from our country and put an end to the many crimes and injustice done to little innocent girls of india.

Dowry is the voluntary step taken by the elite group as a means of security for their daughters future (the one we see in the society we live). But the article you wrote portrays the truth that prevails. The truth that can give them strength to strangle a fetus before it sees the world! Well written aunty!

The forbidden veil

It is a shame to talk about love-jihad in a country like kerala which calls itself 100% literate.Hindu and christian girls finding solace under the hijab and burkha are going missing to untraceable regions of either syria or tehraan and recruited to IS. The situation is alarming  and every possible steps need to be taken to warn our children of the danger. Girls are lured with sky high dreams of money, job and other luxaries and a thorough education of the islaam religion is given.When the net's are thoroughly laid the prey is trapped and  she is lost in a world called 'Hell'. Where are we going wrong?  Is our education system lacking something very much or are the family backgrounds too weak and unhealthy that girls do not find anything wrong in detaching themselves from her family and  having no pity for her beloved ones,  just leaves her home with this man or boy whom she met yesterday. Christian girls falls less prey compared to the hindus because the church has a bigg

"what am I"

Every action of a man is an internal orientation. It may be a good one or a bad one. Every action reflects a pesrons character. There is an outer being and an inner-being. Just as we make-over our outer-being in all possible ways to look attractive,the same way our inner being also needs a replenishing, as this is the way to polish your mind and soul, because it is the highest form of consciousness and intelligence which deserves a freedom or detachment from the body. This is the only way one can attain happiness, pleasure and enjoyment of the mind, this in simple words could be told as mental freedom. An imprisoned inner-being only brings pain, sorrow and discomfort as its narrowness to exist only fills in you desires to possess and accumulate. Whats the use of having all the richness and luxuries and no happiness.                             Our physical self or the annamaya kosha is activated only because of the invisible powers of our pranamaya kosha or innerself. A healthy body
