Judjing seeing a face is difficult. But looking into the scenario in the world, i think wearing a bindi helps us in many ways. Infact it has been my experience once that i was saved by verbal abuse because of my bindi. <br />How much ever we speak of independence, liberal thoughts or modernism etc, people are still following their culture, traditions and why cant we hindus continue to follow. <br />Its just that we need to think whether its being modern or bindi doesnt match with jeans or i am a hindu and want to wear bindi????sushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06287221447883866622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7019178465496482669.post-1978230548549753322010-06-14T08:29:43.071+01:002010-06-14T08:29:43.071+01:00hmmm.... that the guys dont have to wear BINDI, i ...hmmm.... that the guys dont have to wear BINDI, i dono how the so called landlord shooo's them away..!!!ywakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15515444094433533890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7019178465496482669.post-19551901262352788982010-06-14T08:28:57.410+01:002010-06-14T08:28:57.410+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.ywakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15515444094433533890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7019178465496482669.post-24354561418363532442010-04-10T14:16:33.206+01:002010-04-10T14:16:33.206+01:00Good to break the silence with such a hilarious an...Good to break the silence with such a hilarious and thought evoking one Deepthi! I was wondering whether you stopped blogging. <br /><br />Its pathetic that still people undergo such situations, that too in cities like bangalore. <br /><br />In my childhood days I loved to see my amma wearing toe rings which she sadly doesnt wear these days since her toe sizes keep changing every day (leg aches- cant blame her). <br /><br />There had been many of these ladies in school and college who were desperate to get married just to have this sindoor on their forehead. <br /> <br />Referring to metaphors like "absence of a small dot" and "being shooed away like a wild animal"- it adds on to the hilarious situation. <br />Keep blogging.<br />Hope your friend has got a new shelter.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12667629030377604123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7019178465496482669.post-28558924035821139272010-04-06T06:52:06.851+01:002010-04-06T06:52:06.851+01:00Too bad is what is happening in this world.

But is there really a difference between a muslim or a hindu or a christain. I never find anything. I feel everything lies in the beauty of the mind.

Take for eg, the way women dress. Initially religion prohibited them from exposing skin... later on, these rules were modified in the name of 'women's lib'. <br />It's all a matter of who comes up with a new idea first. You then take it further from there, start a new group, a new religion..and Viola! Your name will go down in history.Curl Canvashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04415643750417150000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7019178465496482669.post-65882339596294008852010-02-01T10:14:34.119+00:002010-02-01T10:14:34.119+00:00You painted half a picture there .. what if you HA...You painted half a picture there .. what if you HAD been a muslim ?? would that have made it alrite ? <br /><br />My friend who was a muslim had a tough time finding a house in mumbai ... even in our dear bengalooru we were told on our faces that "no muslims allowed" ... <br /><br />not so far away is the day ... when bricks n mortar will be manufactured separately for ppl depending on their religion ;-) .. scope for extrapolation is seemingly endlessKrappy Geniushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01630811853176623469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7019178465496482669.post-51669679395721129612010-02-01T08:37:51.133+00:002010-02-01T08:37:51.133+00:00Wow.. the way u have written it made all the diffe...Wow.. the way u have written it made all the difference.

@IndianSkeptic -...Thank you folks for the comments!<br />@IndianSkeptic - I never thought i would have to do such a questioning..but until it came upon me,i had no clue. And now the fury has been unleashed ;) !<br />@Crusader - Sadly yes.With each passing progress, people tend to be become judgemental for all the wrong reasons.<br />@Sounak Daada - If any of the things you mentioned happens, i am sure my description will be the first one to be giving to the police!The statement in the FIR would go 'A suspicious looking girl had come few days ago and when she was turned down, she stood outside the gate looking for some hard object to be thrown into the house!' <br />Luckily for him and unfortunately for me, there were no stones anywhere in the vicinity.I had a good mind to hurl few at the closed door/windows.Frankly, i dont think i can blame the rebels now.After all, destruction is a way of venting out built up anger/frustration!<br />Ps Disclaimer:I declare - my thoughts mentioned here are purely based on this one single incident and will have no impact on my thought process now or in the future.I generally tend to go slightly overboard when i get to type out words ! No offence.Please see the light humor hidden in all the statements :) and ofcourse as mentioned in the comments above.. the questioning of the obvious!Tattoedmominthegreenscarfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16903012275792704540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7019178465496482669.post-68079409633337577722010-01-31T18:04:30.868+00:002010-01-31T18:04:30.868+00:00HAHAHAHAHA! :D
