Ram... to ...Hey Ram !!

Ram..
Most controversial word since last 2 weeks.

What are we up to ??
Challenging our own roots.. only for some political reason ??
Only to completely change the history that we were taught..
Only to change the history that we are so proud of..

And why ??
Just because some political party opposes the 'setu-samudram' project and the other one supports it.. Both the parties doing so blindly, that one of the parties is even ready to say that Ram is a just a mythical figure..

Just imagine it this way... Lets accept that Shriram was a mythical figure, and not an actual human being. Going by the story, Hanuman should also be considered as mythical. Further going by the stories that we were so fondly told, shouldn't the Kauravas and Pandavas be accepted as mythical figurines ?? Doing so, there's chain of stories that we would have to accept as Imaginary..

Has anyone ever thought of this ... these stories are being taught in primary schools for last centuries, only to imbibe the very basic principles of life and good behavior on kids...
And by simply filing an affidavit in court, saying that Ram was an imaginary figure, aren't we contradicting the very basis of our education..

By doing this, aren't we heading towards transforming into another US of A ?? a huge country with world's second largest population and culturally, gone completely haywire...

BJP or Congress or DMK -- it doesnt matter who stands correct and who doesn't.
Let them blare out whatever they want to.. Its upon 'us' to decide what we believe in and what we follow.

@ Setu-samudram project -- going by the advantages of the project, shouldn't we keep our history aside - but not forget it -- and support something that is going to be profitable to all ???
