Anthropologist Diary Page:2

Some time i feel that i need a rest . a breake up from responsibilites and duties . i need break up from followership . I need rest for peace of mind . I need break up to meet God in my own way .
Forceful faith and its preaching is always politically motivated in the world . Now are being monitored in one or other way . We are subject of many things .

Today I take the test from my 3 students . There was simple questions regarding literature , pakistan studies and Engineering . I was surprise to check their copies and read interesting understand of such subjects . They have some stero type believes and faiths . They are just waiting for fate. But i am giving them the test of knowledge and raising question .

When some one argue on religious practice , that does not mean he is out of faith . Difference of opinion on religious issues is quite natural so one should avoid the forceful domination of one faith over other. religion must be personal matter of individual not group or state .

If we think rationaly then will find that most of issues and ignorances are due to role of religion in state affairs . There is logical requirement that faith should not be part of state mechanism . religion is not system of governmence but it is name of set believes and faiths around some figures . Modern political systems are good examples where religion is not part of state policies .

I am sad because my larkana is hot and burning the peoples bodies and minds . We are not secure in our streets, in our homes or at our working places. Our traffic is just big mess. law and order is just another mess. Roads and streets are encroached. Mafias are their . Feudals control the all power and authrity in systematic way . Pir o murshids are flourishing and geting their share . Poor is just alive because powerful and elite wants them to work for few selected one .
What society we have . what we are transfering to next generations . How our coming generation will be and what historical blunders we are doing .

Anthropologist Diary page :1

My life is passing in very different ways. i reject all the norms which leads me towads slavey . Slavery in the name of relgion , faith , language, geography etc . I want to find a truth of this universe . This is very complex and ambigeous in its composition and nature .

I meet many people on daily basis . They all are different from each others . Their faith is so strong that even they love it more than life . Their strictness and level of ignorance is so high. they can kill any one . Our society is going through a process of radicalization supported by one of champion of religion. They put money into practice to support certain ideology and finsih differences . who every do not agree he must lose the right of life.

I see law in its practice in my country . We have double standards like jutice for powerful is differnt from justice of poor . Money talks every where not principles . Authority and its misuse is part of every society and state but in my land it is become part of culture . we never hesitate to take it... simply it is called corruption . We failed to produce a mechanism for reduction of corruption as a nation .

We are losing the patience collectively . We are accepting ignorace as altimate to faith . Basically it is modern form of religion or sect where one adopt anti development attitudes ro reject every new thing . we some time reject new discoveries but after some time we accept the truth but it is too late . Some time we react severly when some one criticize the role of religion in our collective life . we punish him on the ground of blashphemy .
Our collective respect is diminishing day by day . poverty has finished all norms . we are just behind the concept of demand and supply . Our history and culture needs to be redefined. we need to use logic and reason in collective matters including state matters ..

Random Thoughts : Part Three

It was very warm and hot day in Islamabad . Every body was feeling uncomfortable because of hot weather and no electricity . But tonight a rain started . Every thing is become cold . people are happy . nice weather . But one thing i felt that due to massive deforestation in capital of Pakistan has affected it weather conditions . Heavy roads to accommodate vehicles but no plan for people . City which i know 12 years back has been converted into security zones, public and private roads and check posts every where .

There are many institutions in this city. Universities have good reputation like Quaid-E-Azam university, Islamic international university, federal urdu university , National university of modern languages, Allama Iqbal open university , Comsat, SZABIST, Mohammad Ali Jinnah university , and many other names.  Education can be promoted in capital, like making it educational city . Pakistan have great potential in the field of education but it is also reality that it is most neglected sector at state level. Research trends are also encouraged in above institutions . Internships are also offered in various fields . 

According to one of may friend from Mardan that , one of good work which ANP made is the opening of university in almost every district. It has give great boast-up to society but positive effects could be observed after many decades. Due to university at district level , hundreds of women are doing their bachelors and masters and family have no objection . According to him for female student , living in hostel is not considered safe culturally . Many opportunities has open for young scholars to teach in universities and colleges. It is only one of good step from political party which has background of nationalism.

I have found people at group. The members of this groups are considered rational but same time they call each other irrational and fight and abuse each other for the sake of prove who is more rational. Almost every body is free 24 hours to speak against religion. If some one give reason from religious knowledge than so called rationals abuse him or delete his comments immediately . Acting against the freed of thought and opinion is biggest irrationality for me . If we believe in God or gods /goddesses etc then what ? its our personal belief . At least we accept the difference of ideas . We should respect each others opinions and comments. We we do not agree with other , then there is no need to abuse or target some one but  we should continue our logic and reason . We are humans not machines or computers which has already data which can perform specific functions on every command.
