Our World

Massacre in a mall in Omaha, Nebraska, suicide by a Dalit woman in Madhya Pradesh, India for lack of justice (who was raped twice by the rich & the powerful), killing in Nandigram, West Bengal, anarchy in Beltola, Guwahati with mob justice, monks in jail in Myanmar, suffering in Gaza strip for stoppage of supply from Israel, military democracy (!) in Pakistan, forgotten Darfur in Africa, cyclone in Bangladesh, homeless Dalai Lama, burning Iraq – what a world we live in! Six billion people (and growing), shrinking forest, human-animal conflict, hole in the ozone layer, growing disparity, growing chaos – do we need a course correction urgently? And how? Who will lead us all to that heaven on earth?
