Jain’s subtle morals



To dispel fear in others
Is an act of compassion.
Not to cause fear in others
Is an act of nonviolence.
Jainism stand for these
Towards man and animals.

Modesty gives beauty.



Modesty is beauty
That man finds in woman.
She retains modesty
When she meets other men
And hence looks cute to them
Unlike to her husband.

Merits of awards



Red is as good as lips;
Red is as good as blood.
Red owes to its giver
And accordingly merits.

Any award is as good
As its jury; that’s all.
An award can lower
Or enhance the givers.

The less known are better.



Don’t beam with your fortunes and skills.
Neigbours would scorn you in private.
Cousins would envy you in secret.
Pears would be jealous behind.
It’s they who you host for a party.
The less known people are better.

Hurts from identity



Insult to a language, religion or region
Does not make any damage to them as such
But would hurt the persons, who have owned them,
With intensity matching their identity.

Patriotism in display.



I love rose; me, don’t force
To hail it in public
Each time I inhale.
I love her, my mother,
Who doesn’t expect me
To hail her in public.
Rulers must not force them
To show patriotism
The way they want them to.

Twins: patriotism and nationalism



A patriot loves his people to others.
A nationalist hates other people to his.
The former is proud of what his land does.
The latter likes his land no matter what it does.

Territory, race, religion and language
Consolidate people to set against
Others in the name of patriotism
And nationalism, to keep the resources.

Fear fuels patriotism and nationalism.
Fear of depleting natural resources,
Fear of losing chances for employment
And fear of external aggression want it.

Patriotism and nationalism are sown
Among the subjects for the sake of heads.
Real patriotism is to conserve energy.
Real nationalism is not to pollute.
