Innocence "made serious"

It was a very nice news that I liked in our blog......

The positive thing about this piece is that Akthar, who seem to be a ruffian is capable of finer feelings also.....I would not be surprised if he had slapped the mentally retarted boy !!

While the purpose of posting well understood particularly when read in conjunction with the Title (Innocence), almost every one of the audience are in some degree of mental retardation only....

It is really unfair to expect always favourable result in any game and all the audience are unconsciously (& not really labelled as "retarted") gets identified with one of the team in the play and get into bouts of emotions based on twists and turns of the game.....either way.....!! I am getting reminded of the article which I posted long time back at Vanagiri Group (ofcourse by Sadhguru) on enjoying the game in the truest sense without getting identified into the result....The drop in efficiency and level of enjoyment was explained with great wisdom but it appeared to be impractical by the Vanagiri members including the Moderator himself.....!!

Now, what gets connected in my mind is the seemingly "innocence" of the audience !!

As Sadhguru says there is always a big gap between understanding and experience.....which I can see it myself....Now the question is to bridge the gap between the understanding of majority of the people with my understanding......!!

I think I can't keep leaking out in every possible opportunity !! After all, its my own diary, isn't it ??

** Innocence **
Saw a clipping in a news channel in which, Pakistan bowler, Shoaib Akthar, was on a charity mission visiting a school for mentally retarded. One of the kids, with all innocence writ all over his face said to Shoaib Akthar..."aap Sachin ko out muth karo" (dont take Sachin's wicket). For which, Shoaib, with all laughter said - "sirf Sachin ko out muth karoonga bakhee sub ko out karoonga" (barring Saching I will get everyone out!).
