To the mentor of my Dharma

19th Dec, last year (y. 2010) He passed away due to cardiac arrest. He was a businessman, and politicio-- but for the world. to me he was the father of my old school time chum, who was my mentor too, someone who teach us but by showing the door to some subtle knowledge, to have the choice of walking along by our own enhanced options, through our own self-enquiries.
Someone who was more than my own father, someone the Guru of life. Someone who taught us Dharma-- someone who lifted us from the common man's domain of Morality-living, in to the domain of Ethical-living, where things are more cris-crossed and arguing. He was the Brahman of my life-- the one who introduced me the fact that understanding Brahma is most complex thing one can attempt -- and something which come only from one's constant Karma, no matter good or not-- the ethics.  Dharma churns out as one proceeds along the path of karma. Ethics become the source for general prudence in the journey of life.
How else would a person from my set-up rise up to think of doing what none of my fellows do or accept. A personal self-awkening was a spontaneous process which happened way back after senior secondary education. But it needed a mentor to find its direction. It needed someone to let balance between the arts and science. The self-awakening was triggered by constant presuring in the field of sciences and logics. An observational and tatse-ful view into Arts was starving. He showed the door to the new long path of appreciation of Arts. That Nirmoh- or Objectvism is the key point to follow both Logics and the Arts is hard to understand until one meets his mentor. For emotions are so much in us that they are the hardest to overcome. Truest justice with Arts and Reason cannot happen without an elaborate view from the Ethical standpoint. Ethics-- a peak which is far above the Morality peak which most human dont even strive to achieve. Ethics don't judge actions to be good or bad. For Ethics are the consequence of Action. Ethics look for Intentions. Intentions which are then the outcome of the greatest gift to humans - the emotions. The whole round journey from Emotion-less-ness (Nirmoh, or Objectivism) to back to Emotional self.
It is upto this point that highest of peaks can a person climb, while on surface, he is busy doing the mundane works of life.
He was the Brahman on which depended my beliefs.
