Barbaric at its Best!!!



There is no Tali (Claps) but definitely wanted to ban these thugs from the face of the earth. Talibans did it again and again but this one is a cowardice and habitually beastly act. The shooting of Malala Yousafzai of 14-year-old girl in the head by Taliban gunmen in the Swat Valley was so creeping that it was hard to believe that any human being who called themselves preacher of god could do this. There was endless tales about them and who can forget the hijack of IC-814 plane in the year, 1999 December. Let me recollect some of their shameless acts.

Buddhas of Bamiyan - Apathy towards the other religion.

No religion in the world tell its people to hate peoples from other religion. At the end we all are god’s greatest creation know as human.

Abdul Wahed, a Taliban commander operating in the area, announced his intention to blow up the Buddhas in 1997 even before he had taken control of the valley. Once he was in control of Bamiyan in 1998, Wahed drilled holes in the Buddhas' heads for explosives. He was prevented from taking further action by the local governor and direct order of Mullah Omar, although tyres were burnt on the head of the great Buddha. In July 1999, Mullah Mohammed Omar issued a decree in favor of the preservation of the Bamiyan Buddha statues. Because Afghanistan's Buddhist population no longer exists, so the statues are no longer worshiped, he added: "The government considers the Bamiyan statues as an example of a potential major source of income for Afghanistan from international visitors. The Taliban states that Bamiyan shall not be destroyed but protected." In early 2000, local Taliban authorities asked for UN assistance to rebuild drainage ditches around tops of the alcoves where the Buddhas were set.

Execution and Punishment - No one spared

You can only expect inhuman acts from these peoples and here is some ghastly tales.

  • While in power in Afghanistan, the Taliban became notorious internationally for their treatment of women. Afghan women were forced to wear the burqa at all times in public, because, according to one Taliban spokesman, "the face of a woman is a source of corruption" for men not related to them, even they needs woman for all purpose. The Taliban claimed to recognize their Islamic duty to offer education to both boys and girls, yet a decree was passed that banned girls above the age of 8 from receiving instruction.
  • An Afghan woman in her 20's, shot 13 times in front of a cheering crowed in Parwan province -- and seen widely online in a grainy cell phone video -- is a show of confidence by the Taliban.
  • Punishments were often carried out publicly, either as formal spectacles held in sports stadiums or town squares or spontaneous street beatings. Civilians lived in fear of harsh penalties as there was little mercy; women caught breaking decrees were often treated with force
  • In October 1996, a woman had the tip of her thumb cut off for wearing nail varnish.
  • In December 1996, Radio Shari’a announced that 225 Kabul women had been seized and punished for violating the sharia code of dress.
  • In May 1997, five female CARE International employees were forced from their vehicle by members of the religious police. The guards used a public address system to insult and harass the women before striking them with a metal and leather whip over 1.5 meters in length.
  • In 1999, a mother of seven was executed in front of 30,000 spectators in Kabul’s Ghazi Sport stadium for allegedly murdering her abusive husband. She was imprisoned for three years and extensively tortured prior to the execution, yet she refused to plead her innocence in a bid to protect her daughter.
  • When a Taliban raid discovered a woman running an informal school in her apartment, they beat the children and threw the woman down a flight of stairs and then imprisoned her. They threatened to stone her family publicly if she refused to sign a declaration of loyalty to the Taliban and their laws.
  • An Afghan girl named Bibi Aisha was promised to a new family through a tribal method of solving disputes known as baad. When she fled the violence girls often suffer under baad, her new family found her and a Taliban commander ordered her punished as an example, "lest other girls in the village try to do the same thing". Her ears and nose were cut off and she was left for dead in the mountains, but survived.

While posting it the girl gone through a surgery and still critical. Hope she survive and continue what she was doing.

!!!If one believe in god’s existence then In name god one cannot go one and punish others, it should left to the god.!!!

Live with the Science of Life!




Religious values, different languages, traditions, customs and the unlimited colourful festivals that make India a very unique one. India regarded by many as the country of oldest living civilization and the tradition dates back to 8000 BC. However, often we failed to go by the values of our own while others embracing it heartily. Most of GenNext Indian preferred the high-tech gym than taking up the age old Yoga routine. The most significant gift of India to the world was the Ayurveda. In current situation, even we have a small headache we never goes by the book rather preferred to gobble a painkiller than find a safe solution..

Ayurveda

Ayurveda, in Sanskrit it is “science of life”, form of alternative medicine based on the principle that disease is caused by an imbalance of life forces. Derived from spiritual visions found by Indian sages before 5000 years. Ayurveda is the oldest existing system of medical practice and is regarded by proponents as a complete way of life aimed at spiritual, mental, and social well-being as well as physical health. Ayurveda emphasizes re-establishing balance in the body through diet, lifestyle, exercise, and body cleansing, and on the health of the mind, body, and spirit.

According to Ayurveda, everything is composed of five elements: air, water, fire, earth, and space. These elements combine to form the three doshas, vata, kapha, and pitta, or metabolic types. In Ayurveda, doshas account for some of our individual differences.

Ayurvedic practitioners approach diagnosis by using all five senses. Hearing is used to observe the condition of breathing and speech. The study of the lethal points or marman marma is of special importance. Ayurvedic doctors regard physical and mental existence together with personality as a unit, each element having the capacity to influence the others. One of the fundamental aspects of ayurvedic medicine is to take this into account during diagnosis and therapy.

However there some con’s too in Ayurveda and some herbs used for the medicine could be toxic but still it is safe bait for many thing.

!!!There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle.The other is as though everything is a miracle.!!!
