Re-define "Honesty"
This sweeper lady had found cash of around INR 2.3mn in the AC coach of a train and had handed over it to the Railway Protection Force as a good Samaritan.
Now, my question to her or whoever concerned is why did she return the (entire) money? I would have supported her if she had taken a bundle for herself and returned the remaining. If I would have seen it, I would have taken a bundle as a token of a self-reward / a fine for leaving the the 2.3mn rupees in train.
I am sure if the money was from savings over the years, it would have been in bank and not carried in hand. I sincerely doubt that this money is a part of some illegal transaction. So, a self-reward does not break the honest trait of the individual. Moreover, I think the sweeper is a religious / spiritual person which had made her to return the money honestly.
Hence, I request the so called religious / spiritual gurus, leaders to make an amendment in the respective sections of honesty which would enable people like this lady to live a grand life for a day or two.
Re-define "God"
Its a diamond crown worth around 15mn INR (as reported), donated to Madurai Meenakshi temple. I have not read yet who the donor is. Somehow, few donors do not do their donations publicly. Temples also have this policy of not disclosing the donor names. Why should people donate anonymously or the temple not disclose their names?
Why do they donate to temples in the form of jewels? It stays there in that form for a long time helping none. God is always great even without a single penny in hand. That money can be used for many other purposes for the development of the society.
Rather, if people donate for education it would be better for the society or government should bring the policy that people can donate towards education anonymously.
Why don't all the temples get converted to schools like how it was once upon a time!?
Re-define "Stupidity"
I don't know if I am the only one who feels that this ad is stupid.
Stupid for it says Mt Everest as "Just a pile of stones". I went to their FB page and posted in their wall, to remove the ad from all its appearance - there was a swift response - they removed my wall post.
If I was the copywriter, I would have shown more stupidity by showing the earth under the shoe and say "Ju Ju bi...the world is just a pebble stone".
