Every man is born free, it is the shackles of religion which binds him.
India is the country, we know for its unity, binding people from every religion, caste, creed etc. but the difference comes when one community considers itself superior to others. Despite of knowing the fact that there is only ONE GOD, then….
Why man fights for petty things?
Why a child from its birth is taught the difference between communities instead of unity ?
WHY ?
The reason is our EDUCATION.
As Albert Einstein said ;
Education is the only thing which should remain imbibed within us after we leave the school.
There is a need to teach communal harmony at elementary level and with the pace so that the child should not forget his ethics. Teaching by videos, prayers, speeches, posters, slogans can make the child learn at its best. It is pertinent to teach children so that they do not become priest who would preach superiority and the strength of his religion.
Gone are the days when we didn’t allow lower caste to enter temple or criticize the minorities. The society prevails only when there is a bond between different communities.
We must not forget the theme on which Indian culture sustains, that is
Love , this word holds a very different meaning for everyone who has come across the real meaning of it. The feeling that one has when they get to the reality of this word is one which cannot be expressed , one only can experience it to express it.
There are quite a lot of poets from the Elizabethan era to the Modern era have talked about their feelings and emotions on Love. They have written how the time, closeness and loyalty affect the love for someone. William Shakespear, Elizabeth Browning and Rabindranath Tagore wrote poems about people in love. The wait for your beloved is callled as waiting for hundred years for someone to end your thirst.
When you love someone you know that they love you back nd the feelings that they have are the similar to yours. Somtimes there’s love that never sees the fresh winds of summer or the cold beautiful evenings of winter but it is still called love.
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight For the ends of being and ideal grace
Elizabeth Barret Browning
In the end Love conquers all and every person experiences it.
The story of women’s struggle for equality belongs to no single feminist nor to any one organization but to the collective efforts of all who care about human rights.
WOMEN, being a part of society are now given equal opportunities to excel, in every field. By fighting every hurdle, they have created their way and now can compete with men and can do whatever they want. Still the number of women in police force seems insufficient especially when we see the increasing involvement of women in terrorist activities.
The role of women in police is equally important so as to record and investigate the case of sexual assault, POSCO. Also searching and arrest of women is done by a lady police officer only. They are likely to use excessive force and are skilled at addressing violence against women and sex crimes. They can help improve police community relations by encouraging more women in pursuing careers in law enforcement. It’s important to make police force more welcoming for women. It is believed that women have worth to prove themselves more reliable and less corrupt than police men.
Thus, the government must increase the quota for women in police so that they can have a fair chance of serving their country. They will help in maintaining law and order less violently.
As quoted by Albert Einstein;
“The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before”.
It is said, “love has no boundaries”, and thus, same-sex marriage is no longer a weird fare and just limited to heterosexual couples. Many countries have legalized the marriage of heterosexual couples, giving them the freedom to enjoy their rights equally to the LGBTQ+ community. However, the Indian Constitution still has not shown a green flag to the idea of heterosexual marriage.
LGBTQ and Hindu Mythology
It can be established that homosexuality was prevalent in ancient India from the epics of Ramayana, Mahabharat, and the temples of Khajuraho. Many instances of deities transforming into the opposite gender to serve a sacred purpose have been mentioned in these epics, such as the ‘Ardhanarishvara’. Lord Vishnu took the form of the charmer, Mohini to trick the demons to hand over ‘Amrita- the elixir of life’. Even ‘Arjun’, one among the Pandavas, is an example of gender variance where he took the form of ‘kliba’, a member of the third gender as a result of the curse, and took the name of ‘Brihannala’, which helped him survive the last year of exile. Many other instances have been mentioned in the epics about such gender variance and homosexual interactions, although it had sacred purpose than mere sexual pleasure. Recently, the Central Government opposed couple in Delhi supreme court stating that a wedding in India is often recognized as long as it’s between a “biological man” and a “biological woman” capable of producing children. Living together as partners or during a relationship with a same-sex individual is “not comparable” with the “Indian family unit concept” of a husband, wife and youngsters, the govt said, arguing that the institution of marriage features a “sanctity”. “In our country, marriage necessarily depends upon age-old customs and societal values” despite statutory recognition of the connection of marriage between a biological man and a biological woman, However, on 6 September 2018, the Supreme court of India decriminalized gay sex marking a historic judgment in the Indian judiciary. The court defined love to be without boundaries. Supreme Court’s judgment within the Navtej Singh Johar case “does not extend the proper to privacy to incorporate a fundamental right within the nature of a right to marry by two individuals of the same gender”. The government also said that while the court can look over existing rights for this, it cannot create a new right. It is not “permissible” for the court to override the legislative intent regarding limiting the legal recognition of marriage to heterosexual couples, the Centre said. Marriage between two individuals of the same gender is “neither recognized nor accepted in any uncodified personal law or any codified statutory law”, the Centre said. “Any interference with the existing marriage laws would result in the balance of personal laws within the country and it would bring further irregularities in laws governing marriages of Christian or Muslim faith”. The reply was in response to 3 petitions filed last year. In one among the petitions, Dr. Kavita Arora, a psychiatrist, and Ankita Khanna, a therapist, sought enforcement of the fundamental right to ‘choice of partner’, after their application for validation of marriage under the Special Marriage Act was rejected by a wedding Officer in Delhi because they’re a same-sex couple. The second petition was filed by Parag Vijay Mehta, a foreign Citizen of India cardholder, and Vaibhav Jain, an Indian citizen, who got married in Washington DC in 2017. His application was rejected for registration of marriage under the Foreign Marriage Act by the Consulate General of India. The third PIL was filled by defence analyst Abhijit Iyer Mitra and three others, for recognition of same-sex marriages under the Hindu Marriage Act. The government in response to the three petitions seeking validation of same-sex marriages said there exists a “legitimate State interest” in limiting the popularity of marriage to persons of the opposite sex. It is important to keep in considerations of “societal morality” which is relevant in validating law and based upon the Indian ethos the Legislature has to enforce societal morality and public acceptance, said the Ministry of Law and Justice says. A marriage in India majorly depends upon “age-old customs, cultural ethos, rituals, practices and societal values”, which contributes to the Section 377 of the IPC covering homosexuality, the Supreme Court had only decriminalized “a particular human behavior” but “neither intended to, nor did actually, legitimize the human conduct in question”, the Centre told the Delhi High Court.
Conclusion
Homosexuality has always been an affair of controversy for society. But having a different sexual orientation than the maximum of the world’s population should not be a reason for not providing them with the same rights as others. Many such people are afraid of accepting their sexual orientation in front of society because of the humiliation and social exclusion they have to face. An anti-discrimination law needs to be enforced that empowers the LGBTQ community and helps them build a productive life and relationship irrespective of gender identity or sexual orientation. The focus should be placed on changing the mindset of the state and society and not the individual. Many countries have already legalized same-sex marriage. Now, India should also step forward with a progressive mind and legalize same-sex marriage as it is causing no harm to other individual’s rights in any way. Same-sex attraction has existed since ancient times and is not something new that has arrived unprecedentedly with the new trends and styles of living. Same-sex marriages should be legalized and given the right to be performed like every other marriage. The rituals and traditions should not differ between same-sex marriage from a heterosexual marriage. When the government can decriminalize homosexuals or same-sex couples to indulge in sexual acts, then why can’t same-sex marriage be legalized? Marriage is a sacred practice of two souls unite for the love and care of each other, why can’t homosexuals wanting live a married life with the one they want to spend the rest of their life be allowed to perform this sacred ritual? India can’t just develop with the advancements of industries, innovation of technologies, and broadening of roads, but has to broaden up its thinking and accept the ones among them who are not in majority. This taboo needs to be acknowledged and the individuals should be given the same rights as others to be enjoyed.
What do you see, depends on how you view the world.
The tradition of growing girl devoid of basic rights and get her married at early age, considering her as a burden prevails in India still today.
On the contrary, giving the boy child all basic rights, fulfilling his dreams and aspirations, making him an asset for the house is followed in most of the homes. From the beginning, the girl is told to be a good wife, mother, sister-in-law instead of a responsible and free individual. She is not told the example of Neerja Bhanot, Sunita Williams or Kalpana Chawla.
The truth bites everyone, and it is bitter truth to know that after 68 years of independence, we envision woman as suppressed, weak. As quoted, it depends on us, how we view the world, that is we view the world as male dominating. Why do one forgets that a woman is a person who has power to give birth to an individual and she can’t be inherited?
“If a girl is educated, whole family is educated”.
Girls and boys should be at equal level. If talked about present scenario, then we can see girls ahead of boys in many fields due to her perseverance, grit and determination. Giving both of them equal opportunities and education can curb the situation of gender biasness from society. One should think about the upliftment of women, women employment.
At length, we can conclude that we should not forget what our former Prime Minister said ;
“One can tell situation of country by the state of women”.
In the poem “Paradise Lost” John Milton talks about the fall of Satan and also how the forbidden fruit affected the almighty’s command. The main idea behind Paradise Lost is for people to have a reason in everything.His main idea behind reason is the connectivity to God. Milton’s poem has a religious connection to God and his creativity of Satan. The poem talks about man’s first act of disobedience, the disobedience that went onto the fall of Satan from God’s heaven to hell. John Milton portrays the devil as his muse, he questions the people for deciding the good and the bad in the world. John Milton very beautifully yet rationally portrays Satan as the prodigal son who was not afraid to leave the house of the creator.
The poem has beautiful elements with reference to the Bible and it makes us question the ‘Fall’ of Satan from Heaven to Hell and how he was degraded in the eyes of the universe. He keeps his source of inspiration greater than any other poets of his time. The Biblical reference of the ‘Forbidden fruit’ gives the idea of man’s first sin against God. The sin was commited by Adam and Eve by eating the ‘Forbidden Fruit’. The fruit was just a bate to attract Adam and Eve to commit a sin against God this tells us about how many human beings commit a sin and never acknowledge it or reflect on it. The Bible teaches us obedience towards God and all the creation of God. God sees Satan falling from heaven into the fiery grounds of hell. It was due to disobedience that he fell to hell. The main theme of the poem is that God’s decisions must be obeyed, as he is the creator and the destroyer.
