In the beginning was WORD…

Have certain words frightened you? for a long time? Words like “hakla”? Have you worried how would you react if someone used that word for you? Has this word become a kind of taboo word, which you would not contemplate even in your dreams? Yes, certain words become taboo and along with them a lot of creative energies get buried in our sub-conscious for ever. If we can pull that word from under the mounds of sands of time, they can do miracles for our consciousness, freedom and creativity.

For women, there is one such word- a taboo word, which they shy away, are frightened off- and yet it is an essential part of their life and identity. Eve Ensler is a brave woman who breaks the taboo and transforms her life, life of many women and educates many men in the process. Watch this powerful testimony about how to free a word, a concept from the tyranny and shame of ages..

    This post reminds of an interview of Hrithik Roshan where he shares an incident and hence displays his maturity on the emotional level-My dad Rakesh Roshan is bald as u all know,once a guy called him"Ae Taklu"Now everyone would expect me to give that guy a good thrashing but the truth is my dad is bald,and he looks very handsome like this,so why should I get angry with guy !!!! A lot of us respond to the tone of a comment and not the comment itself,I choose not to do it !!!!! So a lot of people say that Hrithik has undrrgone therapy and cured himself but they fail to see the kind of changes he has made in his overall life and thinking,so the next time if anyone calls u "Oh Hakle" just say "yeah dude" bcoz the fact is u are a pws !!!!:-)
