Who we are not ...
Who we are not is as important as who we are . Why am I writing about this ? There are several reasons . We unfortunately or fortunately live in a country where you can witness first hand most of the controvercies about the things that can not be changed .
GOOD And EVIL
First let us place innate differences aside and focus on physical differences . Every one has two sides . One he shows to the world and the other he keeps it to himself . If one is to achieve such a high standard where both his sides do not differ , he attains a level of purity . but all this seems too philosophical . Let me break it up for you . I can give you an example ;
'' suppose you say you love your mother , she asks you for a glass of water , you do not want to get up , but you do and get her what she asked . '' What just happened ? Does not wanting what your mother wants for do not mean you do not love her . It shows your ' loving ' side took hold of your 'non loving ' side . If you had said ' go , get the glass your self ' . This indicates that the ' non loving ' side of your won . Concept of good and bad is as simple at that . No one is good and no one is bad , instead , there is good and bad in everyone .
.
PHYSICAL TRAITS .
From dusk to dawn , one meets with people of all sorts . Some of them differ in colour , some of them may differ in physical functions , some belong to opposite genders . All of these traits are gifted by God . Lifting a finger on them is like taunting God for making defects in His creatures . Liking and disliking someone on the basis of these traits indicates how ignorant one is . How is that related to the first paragraph ? You have to believe in this idea with both of your sides . That is the only way you can make a difference .
Things we commonly do to spread this are ' call someone names ' , ' gender jokes ' etc .
'' TRANSGENDERS '' .
One of the most important concept of this are Transgenders . Sadly , in our country , they are not respected as others . One might say he respects them , but you will see , when he is joking or fooling around , he will call someone ' khusra ' . What is this ? This is the very definition of hypocracy . This makes the matter nothing but a sad and unbearable joke . I am sorry to say , but most of our elders are also spreading this curse . The main reason is , of course , ignorance .
Another point is , some people think of it like a curse . You do not believe me ? Let us test it . The best way to test something is to apply it on yourself . '' How would you feel if your child was a transgender ? '' If you are one sided and pure in your thoughts , you will see that it will make no difference to you . Think about it . please ...
MY OPINION .
How I think of all of the human beings , is more of a one giant entity of which we all are part of . No one is different . Everyone is expected to do some tasks . As long as you do them , it makes no difference at all whether you are a man , a woman , a transgender , a cripple or something else . If you know who you are , you should not bother to tell everyone else . If you know yourself , you know God .
Another way to think about it is , God made everyone from Himself . So , how we are different from each other . In fact there is no WE . There is only ONE . That is why Bhulle Shah says ,
'' He came to know Himself '' .



"If you know yourself, you know God"...I've been thinking about it from weeks. I will like you to elaborate it.
