Is Cunhas verdict to Jaya legally wrong?

In any case a judge hast to see two things before awarding punishment.

One is aggravating circumstances/factors and another one is mitigating circumstances or factors.Aggravating circumstances/factors gives reason for severe punishment. Mitigating circumstances or factors gives reason for leniency or why punishment to be reduced.

The judgment by Cunha clearly shows he has given more importance to aggravating factors and null importance to mitigating circumstances/factors.

According to Cunha the following are Aggravating factors:

1*  Corruption is a serious crime

2*     The manner in which assets accumulated ( According to sinha “these firms were constituted only to siphon off the unlawful resources accumulated by A-1” (A-1:Jayalalitha)

3*     A-1 is occupying a high position in the Government of State of Tamil Nadu.

By considering Serving CM is an aggravating factor Judge Cunha gives us reason to think that “Nobody is equal in front of Law” and not “All are equal before the eyes of law”.

Why no mitigating factors considered?

Good Conduct:

In this Judgement Cunha rejected an important mitigating factor. He says “The good conduct of the accused also may not be a circumstance mitigating the gravity of the offence".  All over the world good conduct of accused is considered as a mitigating factor in all the cases. Even in this case her good conduct should have been considered by Cunha as a mitigating factor. The very purpose of punishment is to reform the accused. In this case Jayalalitha has already reformed herself.  She did not do anything bad after 1996 and her conduct is good. She was also administrating well and brought several schemes for the well being of the poor.

When occupying high position in government can be considered as an aggravating factor, why good conduct while occupying high position in government cannot be considered as a mitigating factor?

Age:  

Age is another mitigating factor considered before awarding sentence. In this case Cunha failed to consider Jayalalitha’s age which is 66 now.

One of the reason why Cunha did not consider mitigating factors is he and current judges thinks corruption is a serious crime. Corruption is a serious crime no doubt about that. But this should not be a sole reason to avoid mitigating factors in providing verdict.

Keeping in mind Jayalalitha’s good conduct, age, welfare schemes she brought to the well being of the poor Judges should show leniency towards her.

I would like to reiterate again that the purpose of sentence/punishment is to reform the person. In this case Jayalalitha has already reformed herself and shows good conduct for the past 18 years. Given all these factors in mind Judges should reduce her punishment in a way which will not affect her political career and people of the state,who democratically elected her as CM. .

In reality,What is Gayatri Mantra? Do we need to chant it?

I have heard people saying gayatri mantra is powerful mantra if you do it you will get this or that.

But when I analysed the meaning of that i am surprised...i doubt whether the importance should given to  mantra. The importance should be given to the meditation and not  just the mantra.

But Most of the people are  focusing on just mantra and not on meditation

.

Let us see the meaning of Gayatri Mantra:

----------------------

(Om )Bhur Buvah suvaha

 the physical,subtle and casual

Tat Savithur Varenyam

That revered ray of light

Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi

Let us meditate upon that divine effulgence

Dhiyo Yonah Prachodyat

May that light direct our intellect

----------------

The verses clearly says that we need to meditate upon "light".

The next question arise where is that light?how to meditate on light?

Is that light lamp?

No

Is that light  sun?

No.

Is that light God?

 May be :)

So where is that light?

That light is within you  (and it is everywhere let us not talk about that now.

Yes..that light is within everyone of us...

we need to see that light and we need to meditate upon it..

How to see the light that is within us?

When your third eye opens you can see that light..

How to open my third eye?

Get the help of some "real" yogi

So the verse is to remind  us that we need to meditate upon that "light".

That light will give the knowledge of everything.

And this  be may called an Enlightenment.

There is nothing wrong in saying Gayatri Mantra but what is most important is meditating upon  light.

(This is my understanding..use your intelligence to identify the truth)

  

How to get rid of rapes from the society?

After the Delhi gang rape everybody started talking about capital punishment or stringent punishment for rapes.  What they don’t understand is stringent laws or capital punishment cannot get rid of rapes.

Stringent punishments may help to reduce the incidence of rapes by instilling fear but this is not the ultimate solution. There is no country in the world without rape.

So what is the solution?

First we need to understand why rape happens.

                                                                  Food, clothing, shelter and sex are considered to be the basic needs for human beings. (as far as I know Ramalina Swamy  also known as vallalaar is the first person to say sex is the basic need. Then Maslow’s proposes need theory).

Food and Sex are paramount important for human beings.

To fulfill hunger what humans normally do?

Cultivating food or earn money by working to buy food – this is what normally every humans does. This is the generally accepted way of fulfilling hunger. In this same way when it comes to physical need we have a set up called marriage.

Begging - when someone is not able to work or by laziness he starts begging.  – We should not encourage this. (Monks begging is something different).

Stealing - some who are not engaged in the above two or even some who have engaged in above two activities involve in theft.  I would equate this with love. Yes, love was considered to be an act of indiscipline. But today’s modern society started accepting it as normal.

Burglary- the people who least bothered about morality, who does not have any human values engage in burglary. I would equate burglary with rape. (I do understand Crime level and atrocity committed in the rape is much higher.)

I just tried to give similarities between hunger and physical need just to get an understanding how humans normally act to fulfill the need of food and sex.

Factors that occupies an an immoral person's mind with sexual feelings
Public foreplay:

When A is very hungry at the same time B is having food in front of him. What A will do if he does not have any morality? Of course he will try to take food from him. In the same way when lovers are kissing, hugging in park, beaches what the person who does not have any lover, does not have any morality, will do?  He ma try to engage in molestation whenever he gets an opportunity. He may involve in rape when he get an opportunity.

Public foreplay is also an act of immorality. But those who engage in that will agree? Innocent English media shouts moral policing should not be done. You cannot control crime without moral policing.

Sexualtainment:

Todays entertainment have turned out to be a sexualtainment. It is difficult to see an entertainment without sex tone in it. Movies induce a person’s sexual feeling. 24X7 music channels mostly shows song which induces sexual feelings. Even in cricket cheerleaders are added to give glamour.  When an immoral person gets exposed to these sexsualtainment he always looks for opportunities to satisfy his sexual need.

Indecent dress:

In a society where everybody is naked then there is no problem due to dress.

But in a society where one side people are almost covered and one side people half dressed, it does create problem. When a person grows seeing women almost covered and he suddenly sees  a women half-dressed an immoral person thinks that she is approachable and that leads to some problem.

 These factors are not responsible for rapes but these helps an immoral person's mind occupied with sexual feelings. It  is the rapist who is ultimately responsible for rape and not these factors.
Because 

A moral person with values will not rape even if a girl is fully naked.

A moral person with values will not rape even if he is exposed to sexualtainment.

A moral person with values will not  rape even if he is exposed to public foreplay.

Rape is all about immorality,lack of values,bad character.

So moral education is the ultimate solution to get rid of rapes. Not only rape even for corruption,theft, burglary and other crimes lack of morality is the root cause.

  

Media and many so called intellects are suggesting for sex education but I don’t think anybody suggesting moral education. Moral education is the need of the hour.

Morality is the only thing which will save the girls from the rapes and ultimately it will save the mankind from its downfall.

All over the world government is taking steps to fulfill hunger. I don’t think any government ever involved or taken steps to fulfill the need of sex. The government should think that fulfilling sexual need of a person is also its responsibility. 

I request everybody to support and raise their voice for moral education. From Pre KG to Master Degree Moral education should be taught. Even at the corporate level moral education should be taught.

Entertainment should be about preaching, practicing morality.

Leaders should be role models.

If we sow the seed of morality in each and every human beings no crime will happen in this world.

Where is humane?

When Jews attacked only Jews should raise voice?

When Muslims attacked only Muslims should raise voice?

When Christians attacked only Christians should raise voice?

When Hindus attacked only Hindus should raise voice?

When Tamils attacked only Tamils should raise voice?

When Dalits attacked only Dalits Should raise voice?

Why not all human raise voice against violence?

It is because every human being is in a circle. First they should come out of these circles.

These circles made up of race, caste and religion.

Everyone should come out of these circles and should think that everybody is human irrespective of their race, religion, and caste.

Peace and happiness will prevail in everybody’s heart and world only when this happen.

Have you come out of these circles?

Does God Exist?

Yes God exist. But if you want to see him you have to Go Deep. I think GOD is the acronym of GO Deep. If yo Go Deep within you, you can see him and realize him. If you go deep you will come to know about the beginning of the universe who r u, who am i, and GOD.

GOD is a state. This state is the beginning of everything. Everything came from this state. Returning to this state is called becoming god.

Everything which came out of this state will again reach the same state. This is not an end.........................it may be continuation.

Does Planets Affects Our Life?

When you walk under the sun you will feel the heat. In the same way planets also affects us. Just because one doe not know or do not believe planet will not stop affecting them.

Equality

Equality is the biggest and saddest joke on the earth.
No one treats others equally.
Govts which claims of equality to every citizen also not doing that.

Here the ultimate truth is, equality is, impossible to practice.
