Relevance of Hypocrisy


Standing in the balcony of my room, I see a storm coming. It’s no ordinary storm, but the one whose only purpose is destruction. It is happening, no matter how much as we may disagree but we would all be someday engulfed in it, or be a part of it creating more havoc than forecasted.
We claim to be a part of a civilized society but what defines our civilization ? We claim to be a part of the society that has evolved and flourished over centuries but failed the basic evolution flaw. Relevance ! To understand what I’m going to say further requires the acceptance of trivial fact of life that man is a hypocrite. He will showcase his armor to the world when anyone points a finger at him irrelevant of the righteous of the relevance of the opposite kind. A man sets his own point of reference for the basis of his philosophy. He will never go back 2 steps to watch himself to judge his own actions. There are certain subconscious ideologies which he unknowingly follows but never questions his own perception. He defines right at what his senses tell him. In contrast, a man turns offensive when anyone points a finger at him. It is not the rational perception that drives him at that moment but his defense armor that turns on. It is this point when the battle of wits begins. It is this time when reasoning clash, giving their perception of what’s right and what’s wrong.
It is imperative that both alliances fail to give up. The sad part is that only one shall stand and one shall fall, and a much sadder part is the party standing is the one with power. Power is what drives everything. May it be a human mind or the whole economy? It is what is propagated at all levels of ideologies. When a mind achieves a level of authority and power, it is then that it changes the way to think. The question that arises is if that line of though good or bad. Let me give my reason of explanation.

 It all comes back to relevance and purpose !
Purpose is what defines a mind what to do. It is the real motive which dynamically changes depending on what he wants. And relevance is reason for that purpose. It is the final outcome that benefits a chunk of people, the decision being relevant only for that segment. It’s what drives a decision judgement. “You call your decision rational? But how can it be when your scope of purview is what only you can see, or want to see? “
Now the final question crops up, is that relevant decision good ? It’s been quite some time that I have stopped believing in good or bad, right or wrong since there cannot be a perfect socialist structure implemented in the kind of world we live in. Every judgement will have repercussions that would go against someone and will favor their counterparts. It is the sad truth of decisions to be taken. Time would take away our loved ones away from us, to pave way for new evolved tenets to fathom us in the vicious cycle. But how relevant is those plans of action, only time would tell.
