Chakravyuh and the World

Chakravyuh refers to an interesting battle formation where its very easy for a person to enter but once in, the person realises that he's surrounded by the enemy on all sides. So, it becomes next to impossible to get out unless you are far superior to the enemy ranks. This was exactly the manner in which Arjuna's son Abhimanyu was killed in the Mahabharata war.

Life and the world in general , if you ask me is also a Chakravyuh. It attracts lof of people. Now its a known fact that there are untold struggles, challenges and mysteries facing everyone in life. If you were to alert a person to the pitfalls, he/she becomes somewhat cautious and apprehensive which is not in the long term interests of the world's progress. The world wants as many people as possible to run the mindless rat race. The world expects you to be naive and innocent enough to not ask embarassing questions and embrace life in the true spirit of optimism and perseverance. After all, they say that nothing is perfect. Hence its in the world's interest to make you work hard and keep you motivated through your struggles.

So, the moral of the story according to the world is " Dont think very hard and deep into the future, nobody knows all the answers and hence the world manages to convince most of the nay-sayers into joining the party".Often some nay-sayers are apprehensive of being heavily outnumbered by the opposition and remain mute spectators or still better join the opposite group. This is what I term as " getting sucked into the world ". In Science, they call this phenomenon as " Gravity "...


There is no such thing as Gravity in this world.. Its just that the World Sucks......"Chakravyuh"

As long as this phenomenon happens, the concept of God will be relevant and one can be sure that God will continue to rule the roost as long as we take to straighten the dog's tail.
