Mythology

According to Hindu mythology, If you commit any kind of crime/abusing/discrimination you will be directed to hell after death. 

Hell : A mystical place where your soul will be tortured based on your sins. Torture punishment is different for various sins like they will keep you starving if you denied food to somebody or they will let you born with disabilities if you harm anyone physically. There they give special services like frying in oil or body massage with intense pain. 

Well the point is I don't believe in any of these psychic theories. This is the religion(which I've observed) which doesn't give male and female equal status. Men are always shown dominating in front of female. For instance, it is mentioned in garudpuraan they female must worship her husband and always listen to his decision, she'll fall asleep after her husband and will wake before him. And if women disrespects her husband she'll go to hell. My question for the society is "if the female is responsible for all her duties to her husband then who'll look for her care. Isn't it the duty of husband to take care of her wife?"

The another thought I wonder is about the pain which will a soul will feel but does it really feel that pain. I'm saying this because pain is felt by body and if there is no existence of body ( Body is burned after death in Hinduism ) then how will it going to feel that pain or torture. The various kind of tortures and their pain was to be felt by the body as soul entered into astral form where nobody can touch or see it. 

Also, It is taught that you'll get into heaven if you live lifestyle as stated by the dharma. The life stated in dharma is a sober life where you have to wakeup early, chant the name of god, while preparing the food first morsel is for cow while the last morsel is for dog or crows, then you've to perform your duties and before sunset you've to return home and fall sleep by 10PM. 
These all rules were written based on the ancient era, maybe they told us to wake up early because there were no recreational facilities that time. Maybe they told us to return home early because of stray animals which may harm in darkness of night. The scriptures written in that era were based on situation that time but now the time has changed and we've evolved with new technologies. Now those scriptures need modification as per new lifestyle. I do believe that god is not an element, it's a way of resepcting each other, its an ability of differentiating between right or wrong, its a way of helping others. 
They(scriptures) say you'll face your sins after death, but I say "Jab mein, me hi na raha toh mera dard kaisa aur jab mera astitva hi nhi raha to mera karma kaisa".

METRO LOVE

The sun became brighter. The formals went fully wet with sweat and the body become sticky. Even the crowd during the rush hour sweats awful like a rotten potato. Waiting for Delhi metro train at Chandani Chowk holding paperwork of office. As the metro passed with speed the papers in my hand flew away. I rushed to them and  started collecting them, I got all of them except the one which I found sticked on the face of a girl standing nearby. I leaned towards her to get the paper. I stretched my hand and  removed the paper from her face. My heartbeat got increased, A bright face was in the front of me with little tilted eyes and sharp small nose and small pink lips same as strawberry which I want to make it mine forever  and to imprisoned them into mine lips. Her long neck, long arms and long legs held every guy’s attention. Her diamond earrings twinkled in die sun. In those nanoseconds something happened to my heart. The beauty of the girl was same as the peacock with stre...

Could we make a Last call?

Could we make a last call And talk for hours and recall All the moments we decorated with joy And that night where a girl fall for a boy... I know this won't work anymore But what my heart Cries is you I have waited for you soo long Unaware of all expectations that went wrong A last call is all I wish To tell you how were my days When you were with me And to tell you how are my days When you are away I wish to tell you About the barren nights That you garnished with florals And those nights that went Sobbing into the dark rooms which scares me the most I wish to call you back to the world, That we both decorated with joyful moments To the world, where you felt safe from the people And the world, where I was happy.... Since that won't work All my wishes vanished with the last call and the day you told that "This won't go anymore"...... ~Praful Maheshwari
