Say no to Utopia!!!!


How about an utopia? Yes, how about it? Does anyone remember it? It seems no one even dreams of it nowadays. I think its blasphemous in the context of the modern world. But be it today's or the world gone by, Utopia is just a ridiculous proposition. It would be like what Vivekananda described the perfect man and his world to be. Therfore would be and end of human evolution and I think every human being will attribute his life as more unworhty than ever before one would have.

Let's take a scenario in Utopia world, in let's say right here, in India.

( Any resemblance to anyone living or dead is coincidental as I got this name out of nowhere. )

The hero of my story is called Adish Misra. So Adish goes to college which is ranked one ( every college is ranked one in Utopia ). He is taught a course let us say AB101 by Dr. Guru Dutt ( Guru seems an apt name for a Prof. ), who is the best teacher for AB101 in the world ( again Utopia! ). So Adish is a diligent student, ( everyone is ), he gets straight As during his semester ( everyone does! ).

Now lets perturb this system, yes I'm being wicked, but I was bored of this Utopia thing, so let's perturb it. In a freak accident, during one of the examinations of AB101 Adish looks as if he's staring at the answer sheet of the person ahead of him. Dr. Guru being a very strict person, decides to suspend him and fail him in the course. The director of the institute, Dr. Nirdeshak decribing this incident as a case of gross indiscipline, fails Adish in each course of the semester.

Adish being a believer in truth thinks of his teachers as sinister creatures. So here begins the feeling of hatred, anger.... We are no longer in Utopia now....

Clearly Utopia is not a stable state. It can never be. A little bit of Utopia, like rules, compulsions etc., they all are the factors causing instability.

I'm not for the rules! Not for discipline! Not for religion!
I'm for Human!
