WHY INDIANS FORGIVE AND FORGET
WANT OF EVIDENCE apart,this gesture on the part of ANIL KUMBLE brings out the TRUE GANDHIAN SPIRIT,GANDHIGIRI,in Munnabhai Lingo,if I may say so. Surely,it would have been Anil Kumble's "maturity" and Hindu thought-process of "Ahimsa" that would have prompted this unilateral action of withdrawal of charges against BRAD HOGG! Kudos,even Mike Procter was moved. But will Mike Procter also "move" the Aussie captain and his Monkey Man Symonds? Let us wait and watch.I wish to pen this incident of my good neighbour: He saw me holding something like a Tennis Bat(raquet)and asked me what it is. It is the latest China-made gadget in the market to swat,no "electrocute Mosquitos" which bother us every night in this GR8 Mumbai city. To this he seemed aghast and upset and told me this:"Why did you buy this. If you kill Mosquitos,you will be born "Mosquito in your next birth"!Now after this BRADD Hogg incident,I wonder if this "Hindu trait of forgiveness" runs through every Hindu and not through every other person in the world over...MAHATMA's teachings come embedded in the Hindu psyche?
