There is more than what meets the eye

A few days back I was watching this news snippet on a channel which says that people of a certain village worship king Raavan and they don't celebrate Dassera. They have their own version of why they are doing so. They say, Raavan was just having revenge for the insulting act done to Soorpanaka by Lakshman. We perhaps just remember that Raavan was a great scholar and was an ardent devotee of Lord Shiva. He was also called Raavan Bramha. He was the villain of that epic anyways.

Same is the case with Duryodhan, who was the villain of Mahabharat. But, it seems that during his reign, he ruled his kingdom with such a devotion and love towards his subjects and people that he was praised as one of the greatest kings. But these statements are less known.

That was about the epics. The modern history has such facts and real bitter truths too.

Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose, one of India's (also world's) greatest modern day scientists, was given his due credit for his work very lately (I am talking about his work on millimeter waves). The work was previously credited to Marchese Guglielmo Marconi (until recent).

And its the modern day's apparently dangerous villain Saddam Hussein Abd al-Majid al-Tikriti (Saddam Hussein), executed by the the good, the wise, the innocent, the most non-violent government of America.

How can anyone prosecute a country's president? (yeah....I know...the hearing was in his own country and was hanged there)

All the events have something in common! What is it?

History has it that by the instinct of living beings the victorious have erased the existence of defeated clan/group. Power and history is always of the victorious ones. However good the defeated may be....he is always the villain and how bad may the victorious maybe, he is the hero and he is righteous.

Hehe...what am i talking? lol. Hey...I now remember this saying.."History is a whore which sleeps with power" (I don't remember the guy who said it) ...(sorry if I was a lil offensive...but the news bit of that village made me think all this stuff).

Good night guys...Catch you soon..

P.S.-- Be Victorious Always
