Act tact

Injustice…something whose sheer thought sets me on fire. How much I despise it I understand when even a scene of injustice in movies or plays or novels set off that burning sensation. Is this the result of childhood upbringing with standard principals of so called middle class or it is just another aspect of an individual’s nature! When the fire cools off I wonder that ‘justice’ is a relative term..relativity the most supreme principal of life…. 'just’ for one may not be the same for another. Rules which mankind created, rules which we approve by the logic of our heart and mind are nothing but responses to our experiences in the past. When it is viewed in the open air, exposed in the full light of the world, in the context of the entire universe; it may not be a piercing painful act of injustice but a routine performance in the circle of life; something similar to a tiger hunting a weak, helpless calf. When we give deep thought to this and also as per the sayings of great sages in this world; isn’t it absolutely convincing that everything is just so perfect in this universe? By this logic I hold no difference in just and unjust! Does this mean I should not raise voice when I see injustice happening around me? Here is the hitch. We all are performers and need to perform our roles. Fight against when we see injustice, thank and cheer when we experience justice but very clear at our heart that either of it is nothing but only an act in ‘the great skit’.

Victory story 2

A great Japanese warrior named Nobunaga decided to attack the enemy although he had only one-tenth the number of men the opposition commanded. He knew that he would win, but his soldiers were in doubt.

On the way he stopped at a Shinto shrine and told his men: "After I visit the shrine I will toss a coin. If heads comes, we will win; if tails, we will lose. Destiny holds us in her hand."
Nobunaga entered the shrine and offered a silent prayer. He came forth and tossed a coin. Heads appeared. His soldiers were so eager to fight that they won their battle easily.
"No one can change the hand of destiny," his attendant told him after the battle.
"Indeed not," said Nobunaga, showing a coin which had been doubled, with heads facing either way.
