What you cannot scale,
you will smear and slander. Holds true for people who are so blinded by contempt and jealousy that
their exaggerated egos get sharpened only to become shovels digging own
ditches.
Hate and prejudice stems from self-importance,
which itself stems from an inner sense of guilt and inferiority. Such negative
mental structure and outlook is born from fear, hate and subconscious
acceptance of internal failures. When we point fingers at others we are
pointing more fingers at our own self, in our hidden but deep sense of defeat
and guilt. And it is this defeatist guilt that people use to waste own lives while
offended and accusing someone else.
Every ego filled hate is driven by inner guilt,
of not being able to come at par to the one we aim the muck at. People, who
think this ego filled hate against others and its selfish expression is a mind
easing, soul freeing redemption, are only lying to self. In beliefs of ‘I am
healing myself by venting out my hate’ such people in reality are only flogging
self and letting demonic negativity control them.
Most of this self inflated ego
filled hate is actually directed towards the haters own inner self, who then
reflects this hate to the outside. All this muck and prejudice is a reflection
of internal judgments of these haters like the proverbial ‘mirror mirror on the
wall’. Such hatred also takes root in insecurities
that blossom in self denial or self-abhorrence. The denial of a moving and
indifferent world, that least cares about your failures and carries on leaving
you behind, creates an illusion for these haters. For conscious people such
self prejudices are curbed by a realization of each individual being created by
the same super natural force yet each individual being different.
Sadly such hate filled ego is often sold as
propaganda, most of it being personal, social, political or ambitious. For
example everyone sporting beard in Egypt becomes Al Qaida for Al Sissi and his
gang, yet everyone wanting the return of democracy here may not be a Muslim
Brotherhood supporter. And like hate, its progeny propaganda is also
convenient. Like the one who supports Assad in Syria will be labeled a fascist
agent, one who opposes Assad (and supports Saudi financed anti Assad rebels)
will be labeled a Wahhabi agent, while one who opposes both Assad and Saudis in
Syria will be labeled an Israeli Zionist agent.
In Kashmir, the confinement of our minds under
conflict barriers and our reluctance to embrace enlightenment by civility and
direction has severely limited the ability of many to comprehend. Many of us
often let loose our inner demons of hate and prejudge, when faced with a mental
challenge or a formidable task. This antipathy and disgust is also used as a
convenient propaganda to ‘abuse what we
cannot win or become’.
Like one who speaks against the deeds of the ‘in
power political tyranny’ in Kashmir becomes an ‘opposition ka agent’ for some,
while the same guy also speaking against the policies of the opposition becomes
a ‘separatist agent’ for the same opposition. And when the same person speaks
against the indifference of some separatists, he becomes an ‘Indian agent’ for
them. All these labels become subservient to convenience of timings for the
haters, ignoring his impartiality. Such label firing haters in reality emboss
this hate rant into their consciousness
in such a way that they soon start its propagation fuelled by a false belief. For
weaker humans, even small events like a rejection of a friend request on social
networks, a un-follow elsewhere or even a refusal by the elder and mature to be
drawn into an infatuation, can provoke such hate, hostility and muckraking.
Sometimes underdeveloped minds of kids, who cherish an idol but fail to emulate
even a fraction of him, or fail to draw his attention on visible networks,
often develop loathe and malevolence against them. Such malevolence in these
haters is then sharpened by calumny, defamation or even cheap plagiarism
against the unsuspecting senior.
"If you hate a person, you
hate something in him that is part of yourself. What isn't part of ourselves
doesn't disturb us."---- Hermann Hesse
Since most of these hate filled rants are unsubstantiated
lies, they are only supported by a repetition by the liar, in the belief that
‘a lie told a thousand times becomes the truth’. Such muck aimed at the sky
often retraces back, but till then much harm will have already been done.
With such ego filled hate and slanderous
prejudice prevalent in Kashmir, one wonders why does India have to station
700,000 armed troops to pin Kashmiris down. They could have left us on our own
for a brief period and watch Kashmiris decimate themselves by aiming these
slander guns at each other. Some of these hate guns within Kashmiris will be used
to cull opposition or competition while some ego guns would be fired in an
attempt to be victorious on our own inferiority complex.
Self hate can only be cured by education and
belief in self. And education was never a synonym for literacy.
