Mine is Bigger than Yours...



The world is transforming from Homo sapiens to Robots/Robot sapiens, but still it is bugged by the social evils because of the thought “Mine is Bigger than yours”.

Our comparing life starts ever since from comparing the pencil size in school days, without knowing that after few years we all are going to have the same six feet under the land surface. 

The comparing attitude was inculcated by our parents when they start comparing our progress card with other students. It is growing up every passing year by comparing our height, salary, promotion, wealth, etc.; and it stops only when our heart beat stops.

But the above mentioned comparision attributes contribution to social evils is not even comparable (Sorry state of comparision to use the word “compare” to write a blog against comparision) to the bomb blasts, massacre and other terror attacks. However, the root cause for these terror attacks is also because of “Mine is Bigger than yours”.


It starts from the school admission process. There are columns which ask you to fill your “Nationality, State, Religion and Caste”. On behalf of you, your parents will fill these columns and got yourself admitted into the school as well as into their old-school thoughts, which their parents had passed to them.

These above mentioned three evils (it could be four, but I am yet to opine that Nationality is an evil) sowed into you, will grow up slowly in the childhood days only to gear up in the teenage like bamboo tree. Once it is grown, it is difficult to cut because there are so many trees out there with your own which are muddied into these old-school thoughts. 

The “Mine is Bigger than yours” tag is finally into “State/Religion/Caste”. If your forest of bamboo trees (State/Religion/Caste) is bigger, then you will be treated as Rajput and the minorities will be suspected as terrorists. The Rajput and Suspected are not same all over the world. Rajput in India is suspected as a Terrorist in Pakistan. Rajput in UAE is suspected as a Terrorist in USA. 

When the so-called leaders of your State/Religion/Caste from their villas sparks the fuel of your old-school thoughts, the fire will burn both sides of the forest to a considerable extent. In some case like Srilanka, the other side of the forest (mostly, minority side) will have no foot-prints of even their existence.

Finally, the forest’s scenario is from “Moongil Thotam,Muliga Vaasam” to “Moongil kaattu thee”… because of “Mine is Bigger than yours”.

“Mine is bigger than yours” may not be completely eradicated, but don’t embrace this thought to above evils.

CASTE makes WASTE

RELIGION makes us a PIGEON (FOOL)

STATE motives us to AGITATE

COUNTRY bars our ENTRY
