It’s always so good to start the day on a high note – it can be a call, letter, message or a newspaper piece that hits your eye. Today, it was a lovely write-up from the ‘Speaking Tree’ section in ‘TOI’ that extols the extraordinary virtues and strengths of my favorite Super-hero, ‘Hanuman ji’, in the most simple language that every youth should read ! In our religiosity and faith that we’ve imbibed since our childhood & lessons in folklore learnt through cultural upbringing, there’s been an invincible side to HIM in our Epics !
However, in a more modern context of say, the panoramic IPL cricket that’s taken over our sporting world, other learnings from ‘Hanumanji’ could be of a perfect ‘Team Man’ who never questions the Captain or Leader on his decisions yet contributes in the battle in most innovative ways making him the greatest ever all rounder. He could fit into any role, infinitely big or inscrutably small but would be up to the task given, never claiming any credit. The ‘Deity’ assumes human forms as inspired people rise to the occasion !
