SwaDharma(my role)

 I wrote down a thought of mine to a few who still tolerate me despite what I am unto them 😜

Then I thought, 'who knows? Somebody at some future date might find a meaning in it 🙏... Anyway, its my own life experience, and not a fanciful idea seeking patronage for verbal embellishments or ornamental use of language "

Here it is.....

Swa Dharma

ये "सनातन धर्म"

का मेरे से ,

निजी/व्यक्तिगत रूप में कोई सीधा/direct संबंध नहीं है 😜🙏🙏🙏 

मैं खुद उसका एक परिणाम हूँ ( और ये तथ्य या उसके भीतर का तत्व, both are different 😜.... का अवबोध भी अनिवार्य नहीं है 🙂)

स्व_धर्म और उसके प्रकारों के अंतर्गत, मुझ पर लागू होने वाले धर्म का पालन करना ही पर्याप्त है।

विपक्ष दल के धर्म से अज्ञान, पप्पू को ही देखो 😜

उसके वक्तव्य+कर्म, सिर्फ और सिर्फ खुद का अस्तित्व बनाए रखने में ही व्यस्त है 😜 ( struggle to retain the relevance. PM is ignoring bulk of his ड्रामेबाजी)

बाल्य धर्म, युवा धर्म, गृहस्थ 'ashram' धर्म, वृद्धाश्रम धर्म ( पिता/पति/पत्नी/पुत्र/मित्र/बंधू/इत्यादि अनेक पात्रों का अपना विशेष धर्म है 🙏)

Identifying our own 'role' at each stage/situation of our life is not at all a part of our modern Syllabus 😂

When nobody is at the steering wheel, even a stone, which hits the side of a wheel, decides the twist in the direction of a vehicle rolling on its own. ( Problems decide our task/priorities on a day_to_day basis. Not our well defined role/Dharma 🙏😜).

"Who asked you for this lecture?"( I wish, my few recipients oblige me by copypasting this question, back unto me 😥....   Then, my own circle arround me gets better defined for me🙏)

A joke 🙏

The tradition of addressing people using each other's 'surname' was a 'tool' to empower the other to keep reminding me of my kulDharma( clan_duty unto the Society) .

Today, we find people shying away from using the surname. 😂

भाड़ में गया मेरा स्वधर्म 😡

Irrelevantly yours,

Tail piece:

Once i found a non-presumptous manager as my boss. He never got irritated by any value addition from a non_entity like me( a clerk is a नाचीज़/nonEntity)

I kept my staff-file handy and asked him “sir, where in my appointment order is it written that I_need_to_work? “

He stared. I stretched the paper in that file to read+spot it( copy of my appointment order)

“I am appointed as a clerk at ₹xxx per month…bla_bla_bla…. Where is the mention that I have to “work”???”

He pleaded “please tell me”

Then i pointed to the clause “bound by rules and agreement, time to time updated between the management & workmen “ ( the agreement elaborated my BOUNDEN duties/dharma 😜 

His manager_dharma got updated 🙏

A funny incident: the class teacher of my son when he was in LKG, told her one evening (as my sister went to pick my son back home) : “Madam, i forgot my duty( Dharma). I was supposed to prepare at least one kid for a fancy dress competition in the evening today. There's one more hour time. Can you help”

Sister : 😳😳😳 at such short notice? I can try!

She pulled out my saffron dhoti, wrapped it around the kid asked him to chant a verse in Gita( he learnt it from my mom casually/playfully), holding a stick to look like Shankaracharya ( fancy dress costume, in a short cut). He chanted it smooth.

Sister, to my son : do it now before the microphone, looking up, the mike is taller than you… they may not tilt it to suit your height “

Kid nodded.

Just a “fill up the blanks” for that teacher.

But the judges were unanimous”first prize👍”( the kid had no idea what it_all_meant).

My sister to me : “thank God, i thought of a four_liner from gita, not the 1000 names of Vishnu 🙏😥. That kid keeps the trigger pressed till the magazine is emptied, whether i give him a pistol or a sten_gun !”
