UDAIPUR STREETS
Belief is a strong medicine so much that people think beliefs ‘heal’
“People come, visit our cities, spend time knowing us, and then write it out for people…Who are not even here, and think they know it all, but actually none of them are even near our reality.”
“Most people are not looking for provable truths as it is often accompanied by intense pain and almost no one is looking for painful truths. Rather what people need is beautiful, comforting stories that make them feel as if their lives have some meaning. Which is where religion comes from” – 1Q48,Haruki Murakami
Strong boundaries with stringent spaces, these rituals come as saviors to these helpless people. Alas, love and care wrapped in curtains of hope, is all that they have. It’s strange how people trust others for their loved ones so blindly. However, lack of knowledge just aggravates this sentiment.
In such times, maybe they don’t want to ‘know more to believe Less’, for they fear it might breach their belief on believes.!
Farmer has a very interesting life. Farming is considered some of the simplest job and contradictory, it’s the most involving one. One of the jobs where there is no certainty, but one has to be really involved in the process throughout the year. As growing food is not a day job or a month or a year but it’s a lifestyle. Work and planning for years to grow those grains right.
It’s not like other jobs, where you get weekends off or can go on vacation once a while but it’s each day a new task, a new challenge every day. Somehow, it’s so involving that it changes the complete lifestyle of a person. The reason we respect a farmer ……. (don’t you think it’s our moral duty to respect a farmer who feeds us with all the struggles and hard work)
