04-02-2011, 03:40...I commend Mr Katju to read this:<br />04-02-2011, 03:40 AM #1 Shridhar Bhatt <br />Geetham Contributor<br />Join Date<br />Mar 2007<br />Posts<br />6,244<br /> Satyam Bruyat Priyam Bruyat Na Bruyat Satyam Apriyam<br /><br /> <br />Satyam Bruyat Priyam Bruyat Na Bruyat Satyam Apriyam<br /><br /><br />satyam bruyat priyam bruyat na bruyat satyam apriyam<br />priyam ca nanrutam bruyat esha dharmah sanatanah<br /><br />Speak truth in such a way that it should be pleasing to others. Never speak truth, which is unpleasant to others. Never speak untruth, which might be pleasant. This is the path of eternal morality, sanatana dharma.<br /><br />To speak truth is an eternal value irrespective of time and place. But the expression of truth should be accompanied by two conditions. Firstly, it should be presented in a loving manner and secondly it should be spoken for the betterment of others. How you speak is as important as what is said. Priyam means speech that does not hurt others. Hitam is something that is said for the good or betterment of others. One should be careful of speaking truth but not hurting others.<br /><br />We should be careful in speaking the truth. The purpose should be good and the words used and the manners in which they are spoken are important. So the value of truthfulness is relative to a situation. According to the Indian scriptures while living in the world of relativity truth can be interpreted in many ways.<br /><br /><br />The King And The Astrologer<br /><br />A king produced his horoscope before an astrologer and asked him about his future. The astrologer pondered the positions of the planets and consulted the Shastras and finally gave his verdict: .Maharaja, all your relatives will die before you, you will perform their obsequies with<br />your own hands.. The king became furious. He was very much attached to his relatives and could not tolerate such a verdict. The king at once ordered that the poor astrologer should be given imprisonment for life.<br /><br />Then the king sent for another astrologer. This man was more tactful than the first. He found that the previous astrologer’s readings were absolutely correct. So, he tactfully put the same truth the other way round. He said: .Maharaja, you have a very long life. You will live longer than all your relatives.. This also meant that all his relatives would die while the king was alive. The same fact had been very tactfully told to please the king. The king was highly pleased with the astrologer and gave him rich and costly presents. <br /><br />Therefore it is said that even while telling the truth, one should tell it in a pleasant manner. Even a truth should not be told in a way that will hurt the feelings of others. If it is told so, it is tantamount to untruth only. Your speech should be truthful, pleasant and beneficial. - Shridhar Bhatt<br />I.M.Sharmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08966462873533656616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1720071062570496465.post-78687332955698367282013-01-19T13:59:27.224+05:302013-01-19T13:59:27.224+05:30Other lines of the sloka quoted are 'priyancha...Other lines of the sloka quoted are 'priyancha naanRtam bruuyat, yeshaa sanatana dharmah' these lines are intended to develop harmonious social and human relations. The author warns not to tell lies and falsehood at any cost, even if they sound sweet and dear; but if it is bitter, refrain from telling truth, for e.g. a sudden calamitous news to a very old man, or sentimentally weak person, or to heart patient, etc. But the first line is the real guideline. Tell truth only and that should be sweet and dear. It can also mean you can tell truths not in a harsh manner but in a sweet and dear manner. Be that as it may, I can only agree with Sri Katju if he includes himself among the 90% to which he referred because only such persons as he refers can talk in such a cavalier fashion.I.M.Sharmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08966462873533656616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1720071062570496465.post-51714462346838141882013-01-06T10:48:40.496+05:302013-01-06T10:48:40.496+05:30Dear sir

When the Supreme court judges are so superstitious how can an ordinary citizen of India be expected out of the clutches of the superstition. In this it is to be seen that while delivering the Judgement in Mandal commission (Indra Sawhney) case one Judge pointed out that the other caste people are made to believe that they are below the Brahmin community. You may be aware of the fact that this was faught tooth and nail in Tamilnadu by the Diravidian forces which had been projected in bad light by the media which was loaded with Brahminical minds. You may also aware of the fact that the speech of the nobel laurete Venkatraman ramakrishnan was vehemently opposed by the same community which keeps the flock as fools. The works of Narayana Guru, Jothiba phule, Ramalinga adigal(Vallalar), Rajaram Mohan roy, Sahu Mahraj, thanthai periyar, Vaikundar etc being sidelined by the great media. Some times they being projected as villains (evil forces)of the society..which happens for your comments also.

Mr. katzu you are also belong to this category.<br />We Indians are really fool, that's why you are here. Crores of youth are un-employed and you are shamelessly enjoying post retirement job. yes we are fool, not throwing you from this chair.<br />Yes, we Indians are fool, that's why we are following your un-constitutional order of adding 302-IPC with every 304B-IPC without questioning that "how a suicide can be a murder"?<br />you are very much concerned about dowry & dowry death, but never passed any order to stop it, at the time of occurrence of crime (the marriage) and surprisingly involve in it, why? are you waiting for the crime and cases? Why no action for not registering the marriage inspite of SC order? Why Dowry givers are not punished while it is a crime?<br />you have seen in court that, women are burned for dowry but not told how many women in your family are burned for dowry?<br />"Judiciary is the doctor of society", and presently both are sick. So, before pointing a finger on society see the three finger pointing on yourself also. It is only because of judiciary, we Indians are facing problems. So it is my humble request that, clean your judiciary to save India or leave us on our fate, otherwise if we the fool of India, ................<br />Our judiciary is heavily loaded with the false cases running for several years, but these false complainants are never punished, because cases are the product of this judicial business. Everyday, in 90% courts, In front of judges money exchange is going on and we fool are giving. No advocate gives receipt and we fools are paying. Advocates are fighting cases in the family court without provisions. we fool are not raising the voice, due to fear of "contempt of court". yes we are fool, because we don't know, "contempt of court" can be exercised only after the good certificate of "character of court".<br />I hope you will take this fool seriously and first clean your home (Judiciary) and then clean and make this society healthy.<br />God may bless you the wisdom.Stop Abuse Menhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05451011174620879006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1720071062570496465.post-48207845537669228472012-12-11T19:17:37.259+05:302012-12-11T19:17:37.259+05:30Dear Sir, what ever has been said by Mr. Katju is ...Dear Sir, what ever has been said by Mr. Katju is true , if we are electing these corrupt paople to rule over a large country like India are we wise?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1720071062570496465.post-64135729069465986762012-12-11T14:15:32.180+05:302012-12-11T14:15:32.180+05:30Si

You have rightly pointed out various important believes of Indian society. unfortunately whatever you have mentioned in your articles are bitter truth of indian society. Apart from this I really feel very sad that you need to explain again & again that how you have reached to arithmetic conclusion of 90%. I don't understand that inst-id in looking into the important message behind your writings, people are more concerned about this 90% figure. <br />I further like to add while going contrary to the remarks made by Mr. Ajeet, by again & again asking that why former Justice is not raising other issues related to black money & all. The reason behind this is very simple as he is not a politician, who will go on criticizing Union Government, rather he is an intellectual citizen of this nation who has only raised important social issues by showing reality to us.

Sir,
This by way of feed back as you...Katju Saheb! Sir,<br /><br />This by way of feed back as you also are a lone ranger. Satyam Bruyat… Logic looks formidable. But it is not. Why? I jot down some of our observations for your consideration. They are<br /><br />1. Casteism: You have based your observation on electoral patterns. This group is from Bihar and we are considered as the most cattiest state in India. But We have seen that when ever a criminal is caught by a mob he is promptly killed. No one asks his caste etc. The caste comes into play once a police station/ Neta/ Court comes into picture and whole lot of books are thrown around. The 90% fools voted against Mrs Gandhi in 1977. Laloo never secured majority seats in Bihar Legislative assembly. He was installed in power because of 10% people with mind sitting in Delhi. As regards electoral pattern I would put a simple question to you. What we understand by word choice. Dish TV relaying 400 channels gives us a choice! Or four dozen political parties give us a choice! We can list n number of issues from adulterated food/ medicine/ under weighing/ over pricing, non performance of all three wings of Indian State gives us a choice. <br />2. Criket: Indian because of your 10% smart people have suffered so much that we are starved of victory. We are dying to celebrate victories and crocket gives us the chance to celebrate. Hence the dewangi. <br />3. Anna Hazare: Mr. Katju can you tell the 90% idiots of which I am a part, the last time Indian Government introduced/ promoted life changing innovation in India. & please don’t say Manrega. To the best of my knowledge Chankya and Gandhi gave us innovation (chankya successfully and Gandhi sabotaged by Nehru) through our history. Both contributed as agents out side Government. You say that the recipe suggested by Anna or Arvind is not likely to succeed. It may be so. But I don’t think as a Judge you came any where closer to wipe out back logs in the Courts and some 6 crores cases are pending in High Courts/ Supreme Court. None of your 10% crowd has contributed in any way to improve Indian polity. They certainly have contributed to its degeneration.<br /> Satyam Bruyat is a part of subhasitani and not part of any sastra as you said. I will certainly like to know from which sastra it is taken to subhasitani. And in my personal opinion you are speaking without proper observation of social reality. It is neither satya not an exercise to improve out lot.<br /><br />Lawyers against corruption<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1720071062570496465.post-3428747629580711242012-12-10T19:17:57.497+05:302012-12-10T19:17:57.497+05:30Justice Sahib, I agree with your general point abo...Justice Sahib, I agree with your general point about Indians being irrational but you've chosen the wrong examples. The head of the US Narional Instt of Health is a distinguished scientist - and a devout Catholic who believes in the Virgin Birth. 60% of Americans believe the Bible in literal terms - and that the universe is 6000 years old. All of this does not come in the way of establishing and maintaining an advanced society. What India needs is sound policy and the strict enforcement of the law, uniformly, on all, irrespective of religion. But you don't seem to want to support that.Murlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15163488467167172182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1720071062570496465.post-21933411948403549122012-12-10T19:01:54.933+05:302012-12-10T19:01:54.933+05:30Read both the articles sir.
