That Was Easy

'That was easy !', blurted that machine.'What it is meant for',I asked my friend.'It is meant for creating fighting attitude when are just about to succumb to a problem',He replied.I snickered,'Is that an inferior substitute of inner voice'.He said,'Sort of'.
West is devoid of spirituality. No sooner they realized its importance, they commercialized it. They authored spiritual books akin Robin Sharma and Anthony Robins. It is shear ignorance to call such 'spiritual mistakes' as 'spiritual mystics'. Actually west has always imbued objectivity with subjectivity. It is there inherent nature to be objective. They cannot even meditate without objectivism. They won't do yoga, neither will they go to temple without objectivity. It is not their drawback but its their own nature. They substitute even the most fundamental pillar of spirituality with a fake machine which blurts out,'that was easy', as and when they press button. Western literature is full of objectivity. If they try to touch spirituality even a single bit, they will adulterate it with objectivity and make 'spiritual mistakes' of its own order. Once a wise man noticed there was a book in US named 'You Must Relax'. Look even the name creates tension, let alone what it will do after reading. Can there be relaxation with 'must' component in it. Relaxation occurs only when all the 'musts' and 'shoulds' has been put aside. Look at the idiocy of author.
On the other hand, east is not taught to be objective. Even if they become objective or object-centric they will fill some subjectivity in it. In hindi, there is word 'koora-daan' that means dust-bin in english. Now look at the meaning in both the languages. Language is a prima facie means of collective expression of a society. It precisely denotes what society in general thinks about an object. Like in east, a woman is termed 'Laxmi' (goddess of prosperity). It indeed reflects the collective perspective of society about woman. Now let's get back to the example of dust bin. 'koora' means crap and 'daan' means donate. Some object which is as petty as dust-bin as got subjectivity in it. It is not pure object. There is subject with it. There is donor with it. Such subjective objectivism is uniqueness of east and will always be missing in west.
