Serials

     The serialised T.V featuresall over the world, especially in India and more especially in Malayalam have overestretched all human patience and rationality. They have been wying each other in  shamelessly exposing all human frailties and negative emotions.Of late there appears to be a welcome change in jeopardising the monopoly of these Serials with the inception of Reality Shows. The advantage of the Reality Shows is that when pitted against Serials they are less harmful. Negative emotions are not flared up here.The serials tend to give a stress to the satan in the humans and will mislead the children. Most of them do not give any message at all for improving character.

             I write this thanks to my viewing a Reality Music Show in a Malyalam Channel. A blind girl was singing an old malayalam melody.The feel of the song was incredible. The details were exquisite. Voice was simply melodious. Her name was Lakshmi; the judges called her Lakshmikutty.Had there been no such Reality Show she would never have got such an enviable golden opportunity to give expression to her potential before such a knowledgeable audience. There was pindrop silence during the programme.Even at the end, people remained so for a few more seconds as they were spellbound and stunned by her ecstatic performance. The judges were the famous music directors of Malayalam Filmdom. One of them spontaneously announced on the spot that the little Lakshmikutty will be given a chance in his next film itself.           The face of the little girl glittered with euphoria as her joy had no bounds. The song she selected for singing was having  emotional overtones as well as poetic depiction of the beauty of creation. The facials of Lakshmi did not make any one imagine that she was blind. She looked to be sensing with her own eyes the beauty of all the creations. She might be endowed with an inner eye to visualise what she could not do with her external eye. When a person is handicaped he or she is becomig a physically challenged person. Nature has her own ways to compensate shortcomings. The blind girl appears to onlookers as handicaped . But the handicaps of most of us are not easily understandable to onlookers with naked eyes. The handicap of Lakshmi is visible to us ; on the other hand most of the human handicaps are invisible in the form of abberations of mind. Every one of us is therefore having weaknesses or handicaps and strenghts of our own. The former is compensated by the latter. So there needs no sympaty; what is needed is encouragement for sympathy aggravates handicap and encouragement stimulates strength.The handicaps of body as well as mind require treatment. Say no to sympathy !
