“Are Men Cab Drivers and Women Passengers?” - Professor M.S.Rao

"One of my theories is that men love with their eyes; women love with their ears."

Zsa Zsa Gabor

The psychology of men and women is different. Man always runs behind a woman to fulfill his biological needs. And woman appreciates the man who persists, loves and cares her. When she is convinced that the man is loving and caring she gets married with him. After marriage man is busy with his bread winning activities and there is less focus on his married wife. But wife often thinks that husband is not caring the way he was caring before marriage. But the reality is that man always loves and cares the woman before and after marriage. Sometimes women misunderstand that there is less attraction towards women after marriage or they may feel that they are taken for granted by men after marriage.

Right from the Stone Age it is the duty of the man to go out and search for food for his wife and children. Since he is more focused into it, his mind is engaged with other activities including earning bread for his family as it is his basic responsibility.

When we look at typical Indian marriage life the man runs behind a woman before marriage, and after marriage due to several pulls and pressures there is less attention towards his wife, but certainly not less attraction towards his wife. Hence, women must not misunderstand it as less of attraction towards them. But a wise woman always understands the realities and appreciates the man.

It looks like a cab driver searching for a passenger and after the passenger gets inside the cab the passenger goes wherever the driver takes it. But the driver is a responsible man who takes to the right destination as per the directions of the passenger. Hence, man can be compared with a cab driver and woman with a passenger, and the journey is incomplete without driver and passenger.

“Women always worry about the things that men forget; men always worry about the things women remember.” ~Author Unknown

Life is great!

“Life is Beautiful” - Professor M.S.Rao

“Life is indeed beautiful. It's times when we sink into our hectic and stressful lifestyles that we are blinded and fail to see what we really have.” - Unknown

I was trying to meet one of my paternal aunts since one year. I could not plan the visit due to my international assignments. My aunt is 92 years old, and she often pops up in my mind whenever I write articles. Finally, I was determined to meet her. I cancelled some of my important activities; postponed assignments; and phoned her that I was planning to meet her. She was excited to listen to my voice after 20 years. She directed me the way to reach the place where she lives, and I finally met her. She was very excited to see me. She was all in smiles when she looked at me. She said that she may leave this world at any time and wanted to see some people and I was one among them. I felt happy as I was one among her list of beloved ones, and that added more enthusiasm and meaning to my visit.

She had several ailments such as arthritis and poor vision and hence, not in a position to walk. But she started walking as though like a normal person after seeing me. She shared about her past life and how she struggled and overcame the challenges in life successfully. She shared her sacrifices towards her children and her contribution to other family members. She recalled her mother and father and how they overcame hardships, and her four sisters and four brothers. All of them faced several financial challenges and settled down successfully at the end of their lives. But all of them had family problems. She was very happy that her three sons and two daughters took her care. All of them visit once in a week and spend some time with her. Her children constructed a home for her; arranged everything she needed; and provided a servant maid to assist her. She said that life was very beautiful.

I intend to author a book on “Life”. Hence, I asked her what she learned in life, and what message she wants to share with others. Here are the lessons she shared:

Be happy with what God gave you.
Do your duty sincerely. Discharge your roles and responsibilities properly.
Don’t expect anything from others as you may end up in disappointment.

I felt happier after meeting my aunt as she is happy with her beautiful life and has no regrets which most people have at the end of their lives. Hence, don’t expect anything from others. Do your duty and the rewards will follow. Remember, what goes around comes around.

“No horse gets anywhere until he is harnessed. No stream or gas drives anything until it is confined. No Niagara is ever turned into light and power until it is tunneled. No life ever grows great until it is focused, dedicated, disciplined.” - Harry Emerson Fosdick

Life is great!

“Is Old Age Worst Phase of One’s Life?” - Professor M.S.Rao

"The adventure of life is to learn. The purpose of life is to grow. The nature of life is to change. The challenge of life is to overcome. The essence of life is to care. The opportunity of life is to serve. The secret of life is to dare. The spice of life is to befriend. The beauty of life is to give." - William Arthur Ward

Recently I met one of my paternal aunts after 20 years. She is 90 years old. She was excited to see me after many years, and became energetic although she was physically ill. Upon hearing the news of my coming, she kept cell phone with her as she did not want to miss my telephone call. We recalled various things about our past life including pleasant and unpleasant experiences and challenges. I still remember her who tailored clothes for me when I was 5 years old. She led a tough life as she became widow at the age of 25 itself. She brought up her one son and two daughters by working as a nurse in a hospital. She encountered several challenges, and my father who was also a poor man stood by her and helped her whenever she was in problems. That was how she led her life. Now she is alone staying separately cooking for herself and leading a lonely life. She has several physical ailments and her body doesn’t support. Upon my arrival to her home after many years, she prepared a coffee for me although she was weak to get up and do it. She said finally that past life was always better despite living in poverty as people valued relations. She felt very sad that people presently don’t care much about relations.

Whenever I meet aged people I ask them what lessons they learned in their lives as I intend to author a book on “Life”. When I asked my aunt what lessons she learned during her lifetime, she outlined three lessons which are beneficial to you:

1. Follow your heart.

2. Don’t criticize others. Stay away, if you don’t like someone.

3. Weigh pros and cons before you make a decision.

She finally said, “Old age is the worst phase of life.” Then I said that life is incomplete without passing through the old age. I reminded her fact that young man looks at the future; middle aged man looks at the present; and an old man looks back to his past. Everyone undergoes these stages, and life is incomplete without these three phases. She agreed with my opinion.

Learn to thank God for giving you life. Help others during your lifetime. Don’t develop ill-will against others. Love people. Make a difference. Remember that you have been blessed with only one life. Hence, do whatever the best you can do for others so that you can leave this world peacefully without any regrets at your deathbed.

“God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons we could not learn in any other way. The way we learn those lessons is not to deny the feelings but to find the meanings underlying them.” - Stanley Lindquist

Life is great!

“Prevent Rapes and Check Atrocities on Women” - Professor M.S.Rao

“The thing women have yet to learn is nobody gives you power. You just take it.” - Roseanne Barr

The recent gang raping of a woman in the midnight in a moving bus in Delhi has drawn attention across India. It indicates that there is no safety for the women in the independent India. It shows the way men treat and objectify women in their real lives. Some people blame cinema and media responsible for such atrocities on women. Cinema provides entertainment and media spreads information. Hence, it is something beyond cinema and media.

It is deplorable that Swamis and male chauvinists blame women for moving in the midnight and maintaining indecent attire. There are other reasons responsible for such incidents. According to noted psychologist, Sigmund Freud, the human mind is trifurcated into three compartments - Id, Ego and Super Ego. Id is instinctive and irrational; Ego is rational and logical; and Super Ego is ethical and moral. Every man encounters these three stages every time. He will be rational and logical when he is able to crush his irrational and instinctive – Id, and allows it to be overtaken by Ego. If he allows further, he will appreciate from ethical angle and stand out from others as a role-model. When we look at rapes on women, it is the Id which is responsible for such instant and instinctive inhuman act. Although desire to have sex is a natural one for every human being the human mind must think logically that it is essential to have consent of opposite sex. But sometimes men are instigated in the wrong company of friends and resort to such cruel acts. At the same time, women must understand basic body language to convey right signals to others in public place. Some women don’t realize that they send tempting signals unconsciously from their body language. Mistaking such signals, men resort to such inhuman acts.

Parental upbringing matters a lot to check atrocities on women and prevent rapes. Parents must teach their children how to behave with fairer sex. Men must empathize that they were born to women. They should not get intoxicated by irrational sexual desires.

Women must take precautions to defend from such rogues by mastering the basics of martial arts and using them at an appropriate time to defend themselves. They can also send message through their cell phones to police to get timely assistance when they sense that some untoward incident is going to take place. They must also learn the basics of body language that tempt men to resort to rape. The existing Indian laws are not enough, and therefore, it is time to plug the loopholes in the law to avert such incidents.

Swami Vivekananda rightly said, “All nations have attained greatness by paying proper respect to women.” Hence, let us respect women to attain greatness. Let us not forget that we were born to women.

“Life on the planet is born of woman.” - Adrienne Riche

Life is great!
