Online Discussion on the Education system

       

  This Image has critique in itself because it is not a fair that all have Same ability because every human being came with different talent in this world.so same type of exam is not be applicable.Imagine that if you have singing talent and someone ask you to write a song it's not right you have no language for that but you have that voice to sing a a song.This image is like that because fish doesn't know how to climb but it is expert in swimming.So our education system is something like that.

Online discussion on Post Truth

  Post Truth' is quite related to politics in this era. Two words, Sense and Sensibility are used to understood something.Truth is mostly related to Sense, facts ,evidence etc.To know real truth we generally try to find out reasons or evidence as in legal process facts or evidences require to know or to prove what truth is? But in the concept of post truth the word sensibility or emotionality used to prove what is a truth? as per situations which is more applicable to the politics that is in any way covert lie into Truth.

For example , Political Leaders often try to convince people by emotional attack in their pathetic situations. Like Narendra Modi often promise the people to bring change by his great speech but there is only 20 or 30% truth exist.As sometimes before, he declared that he will help financially poor people of India for that he told that people has to open Jan Dhan accounts and people opened accounts but nothing happens till now.Till their accounts are empty.That accounts now used by people who has Blake money by offering little amount to the account holders and this idea of caught the wrong people who have lots of Blake money ,its also cannot be true as declared . So, this types of thing became truth which is not so true but making truth.

Online discussion on Oneness of Literature

          In essay, 'Tradition and Individual Talent' , Eliot  talks about the pastness of the past and its relevance to present, and in the Archetypal Criticism, Northrope Frye talks about the oneness of all world literature that the skeleton of the literature is one but the bodies are different in form of different language and literature. As in the above lines of Wasteland, the character of the Marie is connects with the historical figure  Marie Louise Elizabeth Mendel and her cousin Archduke Rudolph. So by this, perhaps he try to say that present also connects with past as present literature take the themes and character from past literature in one or another way. In Archetypal Criticism, Northrope Frye also talks about the oneness of the all world literature by the same archetypes used in different literature for same situation like Tajmahal used as the symbol of the love in many movies like Yangistan.


     These lines from Wasteland  give us the picture of the memory of Childhood  that Marie reminds her days when she with her cousin archduke went on sled but she freighted and he said to hold on  tight. So it suggests the attraction or lust. Sex is also one of the theme of the Wasteland , Eliot talks about the Separation of sex from the Love which indicates the spiritual decay. In a short story, 'A Joke', we find that the Speaker may love  Nadia when they went on coasting on sled, speaker said to Nadia,' I love You , Nadia'. They can't live together Nadia married someone and have three children but she never forget that how they coasted and words that whispered by speaker but there is not real  love, from last dialogue we come to know that the speaker is jested with Nadia , its like Joke for him. Speaker play with the emotions of Nadia just like lust not love. Love should be pure without any jealousy but when we read the legend of Tristan and Iseult, we find the jealousy. When we read the Osho , he talk about the Spirituality but it connects with the sex and love, he often say that the sex is the medium to reach at love, Here the for Eliot, sex is also beautiful thing  but in modern pop culture sex has nothing to do with the love, it's only for lust. Sex in modern time became the momentary pleasure or bussiness like in this poem the middle class, we find the sexual perversion in mechanical relationship of typist and clerk and the character of Eugenide is homosexual. All Europe burning with the lust and sexuality, so there is the decay of spirituality. Sex has been separated from love, marriage and procreation. It became beastly or animal copulation. 

     So, here we can say that all literature have same raw material is same but used with different style of writing. There is movie 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Dewani', where is same story of love found  but not only lust, Kabir and Naina come closer during their hiking trip into  mountains of Himalaya, up to Manali. Archetype of snow mountains are here in both  poem and short story is same.

Classroom activity on T.S Eliot's 'The Wasteland'

Respected sir
Here, I am sharing my views on these three questions as the classroom thinking activity on 'The Wasteland'


1) The views of Nietzsche and Eliot are totallly contrasted, Nietzsche gave the concept of 'Superhuman' and 'Death of God' that faith in self can lead to be a superhuman and no need of God, but everyone can not be a superhuman, there is not much difference in thinking process of various people, some of them can get superpower and slowly and steadily be a godly figure like Buddha, he himself superhuman and not believe in god but his followers made him god.While Eliot try to find the solutions from the past and myths for present problem and gave us universal truth by examine various cultures. He was religious and spiritual quite opposite from the thinking of Nietzsche. Both are very opposite in their views


one is forward looking and progressive while other is regressive and backward looking. Past is the base of present and future through which we can improve our ability.






2) Views of Freud are quite true that free vent of primitive instincts leads us towards the happy life and give satisfaction.The sexual desires of mankind is natural thing, when we try to stop it , it can be give dangerous results, Prostitution is also necessary for society which can fulfilled the sexual desires , if it doesn't exist , it may give the bad results like the case of rape or molestation of women can be happen in society even in family also because it's repression stored the desires in subconscious mind of people. So , it's good that desires can be fulfilled. Ex,'Fire' movie indicates that Radha's sexual desires with her husband can't be fulfilled because her husband believes in religion and salvation which leads Radha towards Lesbian Relations. But it should have it's limit , otherwise it create chaos in society. Eliot said that the salvation of man lies in the preservation of culture but the Culture made by us not by primitivism. So, I agree with the Freud's psychology of unconscious and subconscious mind. Osho also give the same idea that if we want to reach at salvation or love , its only by the fulfillment of all your sexual desires , otherwise we can;t get true salvations. In contemporary time we can see that how the saints show off the spiritual work while they are also doing same thing but mot openly.






3) In his master piece,Eliot has taken many myths or references from various sources like Buddhism, Hinduism, and Christianity.



Through this he gave the universal truth . Indian thoughts also very well expressed in this like he used the Upanishads Philosophy


where uses the images of Ganga in lines






“Ganga was sunken, and the limp leaves waited for rain,
While the black clouds Gathered far distant, over Himavant.”







through this he talks about the salvation and peace of life which very well in last lines of poem ,Eliot uses the three " Da" which is taken from " Brihadaranyaka Upanishads". Means...

1.Datta.... Be Giver

We have to be giver. For sake of humanity, lots of people scarified their life also because only blood purify the evils. Humanity are survived only because of such people.

2. Dayadhvam....Sympathies

Everybody is in his prison because of self ego. And self is the key to come out from it but really it is very difficult task.

3. Damyata........Self Control






Shantih Shantih Shantih ,reapetation od this indicates the 'peace which passeth understanding', there is no darkness and dawn is come which give hope for better generartion.



Thank you,
