Television is certainly witnessing a change right now . The online media is flooded with an array of reality shows at the moment . Ranging from the capture of someone’s private life to the live screening of someone’s Swayamvar , nothing is personal in this age . And even though you will find everyone criticizing this new surge in shows based on the (un)scripted format , everyone is glued to the reality shows right now .

People are watching these shows so that they can criticize them . They are watching these shows so that they can find a loophole and possible a point to prove that afterall , they are not exactly ‘real’ . Both the ways , these shows are successful in achieving what they intend to , and that is TRP . TRP , the magical word itself . An average viewer loves to plunge into the fake real world with organized situations and shots taking note of every move of the assumingly unaware participants . And that is the exactly the plus point these reality shows are actually feeding upon .

The term ‘reality’ used for these shows can be quite a misnomer as most of these shows are pre planned , well rehearsed and not natural ( in plain terms , fake ) . The so called ‘Swayamvar’ is a live demonstration of this fact . A swayamvar means a marriage . But do we get to witness one at the end of the swayamvar . No we don’t .

Take an example of the live singing competition . Well , its more of a competition between the judges than the participants . The trailers are flooded with the arguments between the world famous music directors , and though deep inside we know that its all well planned , we still wait and wait and finally we watch the show , just to know what exactly did happen , what exactly was planned , what exactly they quarrel for afterall .

Its an unreal real world . A world we love to enjoy . The only problem with these shows is that they call themselves the “Reality Shows” . Otherwise , they are more entertaining and worth watching than any other daily shop , which are even more disgusting . Atleast here our imagination can take a flight and we can assume our self to be in the shoes of people we see on the screens , and can be optimist enough to be in their place in the subsequent episodes .

Love : a feeling so sacred & divine …… so pure & intense …… so heavenly & personal ….. yet the need of the hour has compelled us to question its viability as a selfless one.Our society has undergone massive changes from the time when love used to be a feeling not a commodity.But none of these changes can justify the absence of the “selfless” texture of love.

Love stories like that of Romeo-Juliet,Soni- Mahiwal,Heer-Raanjha,Laila-Majnu are simply stories in the context of the scenario we are living in.If any of these pairs existed today Romeo’s love would have been influenced by a lot many factors like Juliet’s financial,professional,intellectual status that could compliment Romeo’s social standing.This conclusion that I have drawn is purely imaginary because the task to estimate the impact of today’s professionalism on the people whose love has unanimously been marked “eternal” is herculean.

The form of love that has been considered the most selfless and sacred has also been put to test in this era that we denote by the name:Kalyug …. the name that itself provides an indication of the significance of feelings like love.It was the mother’s love which was believed to be much more than a profit and loss statement,which never knew the meaning of benefits,which only knew giving,which was considered next or almost equivalent to God’s own blessings.But how frequently now we come across the incidents of mothers brutally murdering their own children for the sake of money,property or any materialistic affair.When this form of love has lost its selfless texture what can one expect from the other forms.

Lets talk about our own generation.What promises and commitments we make to the girls we wish to woo.We convince them that we are ready to deliver every bit that is required to prove our love as the one that is different from all others but the bitter reality is that we simply do all that to get that girl and forget everything that we promised as soon as the girl is officially ours and no matter how hard i try i simply don’t find any thing as selfless in this process.

All that i have stated in this post is a generalization of the things that i see around,incidents that i come across and conclusions that i have drawn …. Many readers may not agree with my verdict as they may feel that they are the carrier of self less love but deep down within each one of them knows that the certain element of truth that this article portrays cannot be neglected or put aside.I wouldn’t provide you with the suggestion or motivation of turning things upside down but I would seriously wish for the things to change and what a great sense of satisfaction it would be if i would be able to bring about one by this post…..Wishing you a selfless love ….. forever !!!!!!

Look into these eyes ??? What do you see ??? Don’t you see the royalty ??? …. the integrity ??? …. Don’t they reflect the arrogance carelessness of the king ??? …. Doesn’t that transfixed glare fill you up with respect for this flamboyant and magnificent creature ??? …. I am sure they do .

But do you see audacity in his eyes ???? …. No ….. You can’t . Because there ain’t any . He is scared . Our national animal is scared . The creature , the very sight of whom in the wild is enough to give anyone goose flesh , or even a heart attack , can be scared of whom ???? ….. Who can be more dangerous then him ???? …. You know the answer . He is afraid of us . He is afraid that someday , when he is out to hunt , he might become a prey , rather than a predator . He is afraid that one day his name will be remembered alongside mammoths and dinosaurs . He is afraid of extinction , afraid that his very existence will be wiped out from the face of this planet .

Its high time that we leave him alone . Only 1411 tigers left and if we don’t put a stop to our methods , it will not take much time to reach the 0-mark . Sooner than later , zoos will be the only place where he will find himself secure . Until and unless we launch a staunch support to our national animal and until and unless we learn to respect all the creatures of Mother Nature , HIS condition is not going to improve ….. not even a bit . And we are going to lose this part of our heritage forever .

Lets help him . Lets support our tigers , do whatever we can . You can make the difference . Join the movement >> http://saveourtigers.com/
