FOR AUTODIDACTS

The best way, i believe, is by learning yourself. Having a thirst for knowledge is a great gift.

Here is a link for people who are interesting in a path to learn CS.

WHERE IS OUR HUMANITY

Yesterday i came across a video of a girl being beaten and burnt by a crowd of people somewhere on our planet. How much far we have come from what we really are. We are humans and our first and foremost duty is humanity. To respect each other. To show affection to each other. To help out each other. It seems like we have totally forgotten all this. One of the reasons for this is our education system which is only filling us with ignorance. Ethics are no more a priority or not even a part of our system at some places. 

 I tried to place myself at that girl's place to feel what she might have felt. It was hard for me to stop my tears and it will be hard for any human being once he starts to think like that. But no one from that crowd was a human i guess. How mercilessly she was burnt afterwards. The crowd of made a proper circle around and watched that poor girl writhe in fire. The person in making video was more interested in making the video. Technology is also playing a major role in making us lose our humanity.

"It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity." Albert Einstein

Some so called open-minded and rationalist people might try to argue about the crime of that girl. I didn't pursue for finding that out. No crime deserves such punishment. We cant blame the Human Rights Organizations for this because no matter how much work they do our condition will not improve unless we want to improve and change ourselves. Every other day there is a major human rights violation. Nothing really happens in response. We have become numb and we are living in a delusional state. We have become egocentric. We don't care unless something happens to us. We will never achieve happiness unless we overcome this egocentricity. Once a man came to Buddha and asked "i want happiness". Buddha replied "remove i and want then what is left:happiness".

I usually don't like to talk about religion because thats not my work. That's the work ulemas. Here i just want to mention one of qualities of Prophet(PBUH). And i am sure that same would have been the quality of prophets in different religions. That is Empathy. To put yourself in others shoes. To try to feel others pain and happiness. Situations like these can be avoided if we simply adopt this quality.

In the end a "human" comes running and throw some extra petrol on her and... girl's body becomes still and scorched. We need to think and we need to become humans. That's what we really are. And we have to learn to control ourselves from the things that take us away from our HUMANITY.
