Bhakt : Prabhu, people are again angry!
Bhagwan: Now what?
Bhakt: You know everything Prabhu.
Bhagwan: You mean racism?
Bhakt: Yes Prabhu, they are angry, demonstrations going on, there are hot debates in media.
Bhagwan: So racism should end now.
Bhakt: I don't know. But Prabhu what is racism?
Bhagwan: When people show discrimination and try to put down other on the basis of birth in a 'different' community. This can be in beliefs, speech, practices or actions. It can range from single incident of neglect to casteism, regionalism, community violence and even genocide. The impact of this on humanity is very damaging.
Bhakt: Oh so sad Prabhu but why do they do this? You created them all as equal.
Bhagwan: Yes I created them all as equal but they do not realize this. The basic reason is in mindset. People have basic trait of 'proving' them self as better than others. This is true even among individuals. They try best to select something to 'prove' that they are better and others are inferior. Deep core feeling is to assure self as better, stronger or more 'privileged'. Sometimes this is also used as a weapon to settle personal issues. It is like finding weak spot of other person to hit. This is an unfortunate human trait and that is why racism is seen around the world in one form or other. They may call them self civilized but such hate crimes are in reality everywhere in one form or other.
Bhakt: But how can they do so when you have created them all as equal?
Bhagwan: They know this but they do this to hurt others, satisfy own insecurity, own feeling of inferiority or in absolute selfish interest. All this is very deep and will not go away by making laws forget about demonstrations and media debates.
Bhakt: You mean nothing can be done?
Bhagwan: Why not but human beings are in the habit of window dressing. If you see the pattern. There are demonstrations, debates and some laws. But reality is not changing for good but becoming bad to worse. Reason is simple. With every passing day human beings are becoming more and more selfish and narrow minded. They do not realize that they are part of world community and they can live happily only if entire humanity lives in harmony and equilibrium. If they do anything that can cause damage this delicate equilibrium, ultimately they all will suffer and will perish.
Bhakt: True Prabhu they do not realize that these incidents threaten the very existence of humanity. Why they can not understand such simple thing? This is against their own interest.
Bhagwan: They need to use some common sense for this, use their brain.
Bhakt: Using brain Prabhu....... Naaraayan !!! Naaraayan !!!
