Guru Purnima||NEPTUNE BARMAN

Guru is just a source and a device to reach our destination. Guru is not a personality. We can live our life without a guru and go on the journey of our life but we may get lost because we have no experience of the journey. Guru is someone with the experience, who can guide you through your journey. It`s like the map through the journey of your life. Only when you start to experience your guru, more than a person than he becomes your guru else he is not a guru but a teacher. The day of Guru Purnima can be marked as the day of liberation because this is the day when limitations come to an end. The possibility of liberation is open up for the human race on this day. There are two dimensions of our brain, one thinking about making boundaries and one about exploring. Guru means something, it`s best to walk with someone who walked already on the path you choose to walk. We can choose to walk alone but it would take our whole life to reach our destination. Guru is not about the person it`s beyond the personality. On climbing, mount evert if sherpa who never been to university if he says turn left you will turn left if he says turn right you will turn right. So guru is beyond the identity of the human. It`s about the experience of the person. And we should see our guru beyond a human being. We, humans, are the only species who can evolve consciously, the rest of the species evolve unconsciously. But if we decide to evolve unconsciously then there will be no difference between humans and other species. This has been the land of seekers and as long the seeking will last the humanity will be alive.

মা

 By-চিন্ময় ভৰালী

'মা' বুলি ক'লে

ই কেৱল এটা শব্দ মাথোন

কিন্তু এই সৰু শব্দ এটাৰ

মাজতে লুকাই আছে বহুতো 

দুখ-কষ্ট,মৰম-চেনেহ

আৰু ক'ত যে কি?

যিজনী মহিলাই ভোক-পিয়াহ,

নিদ্ৰা পাহৰি কেৱল মাথো

কষ্ট কৰিছে,

কৰিছে কেৱল মাথো তোমাৰ বাবে

সেইজনী মহিলাই হৈছে

তোমাৰ 'মা' ৷

যি জনী মায়ে ক'ত বাধা-ধুমুহা

নেওচি  তোমাক ডাঙৰ কৰিছে

সেই মা জনীকে 

আজি তুমি এৰি গুচি গ'লা

কোনোবা দূৰ বিদেশলৈ

কিয়?

কিয় বাৰু আজি তেওঁক অকলশৰীয়া

কৰি গ'লা? 

এবাৰো নাভাবিলানে তেওঁৰ সেই

অলেখ কষ্টৰ কথা

ইমান নিষ্ঠুৰ নে তুমি?

কিন্তু কি জানা আজিও তোমাৰ

অপেক্ষাত থকা 

সেই মা জনীয়ে সোধে

"মোৰ বাবা ভালে আছেনে?"

আৰু কয়

"ভগৱানে তাৰ মঙ্গল কৰক"

Protest in Assam over Land Policy 2020||Report by NEPTUNE BARMAN and DEEPJYOTI DEKA

Recently the protest has been seen raising against the new land policy of the BJP government. Different organizations claimed it as anti-social and against the indigenous people of Assam. They claimed that the government has misused their power and took advantage of the lockdown during the corona pandemic, whereas the voices of people are submerged. Minister Chandra Mohan Patowary commented on the issue that the ordinance will not be applicable for hazardous industries and no industry will be allowed in eco-sensitive zones. And it will mainly help the local entrepreneurs of Assam. So we can also analyze that the problem of unemployment will also be solved. As there will be lots of opportunities for Assamese youths. Ironically people were protesting against the government for unemployment and at the same time today, they are neglecting the opportunities instead of welcoming it. We love our culture, tradition but our tradition and culture need to evolve with time. As time never waits, it changes. We cannot live today as we lived thousands of years back because today we also need some brain along with muscle power. So I think the government is not so fool enough to destroy the economy and culture of the society of Assam. Since the election of Assam is coming on the way so it's the political region due to which the anti-BJP organizations are organizing protests against such policies. We want government jobs, but if we look at the economy of the country. The economy of the country does not run by government jobs single-handedly. So let us look around, we have lots of problems in our society. So if we want to do something we can do lots of work around and earn money. Before organizing protests against an issue first judge yourself if you are right or wrong then attempt to judge someone else. There are many talents in Assam who want to do something in their life but it`s the lack of opportunity that they are suffering from. And the government is trying to give opportunities. We criticize government comparing ourselves to the developed countries and states but why we move back when the government takes a step ahead. Ironically we are acting as the barrier for the development of Assam. Ironically the organizations are seen taking the name of Jati, Mati, and Bheti in the name of movements to protest against the government to gain support from the people. But conflict starts from beliefs and belief is not about coming on streets and protesting it`s about proving your experience. The protest has been going viral on the social media platform across the Assam. Different organizations are seen taking lead in the protest including AASU,AJYCP,Veer Lachit Sena,KMSS,SMSS other regional parties and many other political parties too commented on the issue. 

Here are few contents collected from the social media platform that is being shared-

Rename India to Bharat||NEPTUNE BARMAN

We have been calling this land as motherland, not as fatherland. The very basis of creation is referred to as a mother. We have not seen god, but most of us have seen our mother. So we refer to our land as a motherland instead of the fatherland but ironically women are fighting and struggling for rights in the society. Nations are basically made based on the sameness of the people. But what about India? When Europeans came to India they cannot believe in the diversity of this land. This land never had a single belief system, a single culture, single religion, a single tradition. Even there is no religion of this land just we are trying to compete with others. But the most interesting thing to look at is what has united us for so long in this diversity. This has always been the land of seekers. This land was identified by its geographical identity but not by religion. We did not have a particular god to pray. Each and everyone had the right to pray anyone they wish. This nation is alive because of the nature of seeking. Let`s talk about the idea of BHARAT, the word BHARAT has a deep meaning. Which is the original name of our country. People say that the country is named after the Bharat king but it`s wrong the kings are named after the country. So the name India is the name of slavery it's not the name of pride. The name India does not have any meaning. So if a person hold a meaningless name he is identified to be meaningless. We can give any name to ourselves but only thing is whatever we utter is a sound but it leaves a meaning with physiological effect. The beauty of India is not the sameness that binds us. We don't teach Hindi to everyone, we don't teach Assamese to everyone. Hindustan gives an identity of geographical identity but Bharat gives the identity of culture and I think this is the right time to follow the culture. Everyone should have the right to live life the way they wish and believe the way they wish. idea of nation is meaningless until the passion of nationalism vibrates in the heart of each and every being of the nation.

Inter-caste Marriage Explained||NEPTUNE BARMAN

We have been following the traditional art of marrying the person of the same caste. But as the new generation is advancing many questions are arising that why we cannot marry another caste person? Let`s look back to the old days. In India, the caste system was introduced to teach the skill to the people of society and make them perfect in their skill. And the skill was inherited in their families. A girl from a family of the goldsmith was married to a boy from a family of goldsmith because of the knowledge that they can inherit. But now the caste system is not valid in the case. Because the son of a goldsmith is studying engineering, the daughter of a farmer is studying MBBS. So the time has changed and it`s time to change the way we think. We should not think about anybody caste before marrying them because we should be practical in life. Our Indian culture had transformed from time to time for the development of humanity and evolved. It was the demand of time that made the cast system in the society but it`s not necessary to follow it now. Because after all, we are all human. It was not a caste system but a class system that people misinterpreted as a caste system. The caste system was based on the occupation of the people. I think the reservation system is necessary at the entry point because the caste system exists. And still the lower caste people are discriminated by the upper caste people in many regions of India. If you want the government to eliminate reservations then you need to support the government to eliminate the caste system and only we can do it. The very basis of the reservation system is the caste system. If we can end the caste system then the reservation system will come to an end.
