Could not sleep...
The clock marked 03 hours of the morning when I, without sleep, I began to change the channels of TV in search of something interesting to watch when, finally, stopped on channel 41 NTOs. The program portrays the life of "Hijra". I felt completely involved with that program. I felt a deep sorrow for those Indian women, I would help them somehow ...
"Hijra" are actually people living in India and are the third sex, they are neither men nor women. There is an organization in clans of "Hijra" where they elect a "guru" (actually the oldest and the group wise). It is believed they have the power to bless or curse and to predict the future. Indeed, many see as the "Travestis", which they say will never be. Within these clans of "Hijra" is a hierarchy and rules of coexistence. The "Castro" is more valued within the clan, in fact the ritual of castration is dangerous, since it occurs on a full anti hygienic without any technical knowledge, simply give water to the "patient", a drug for the person fell asleep, and cut up at once the sexual organ. Just imagine ...
Finally, beyond this technical thing ... There is the emotional and human side of things, actually the "Hijra" are not met and has no rights as expected. They live separate from society to survive and get some to sell ... The program portrayed common cases to be a transsexual or whatever it is the definition ... Lives are! Feelings are! One of the cases showed the life of a gay couple that he was "Hijra", basically the story began even in his family, to live in an oppressive society he remained silent and accepted marry but inside there is a female and even having two children, decided to drop everything and do what his heart told, but after a few months was convinced by his family to return to his wife and children shortly before he was castrated, which would not have back.
Some, few indeed, have the opportunity to experience a great love and marry, but the marriage between a "Hijra" and a man is only allowed when, obviously, the family accepts and is extremely important that men get married with a woman who can generate a child in the womb ... Something in my terrible design.
Soon after the program started another who spoke also on transsexuals, in that second, a man who after a stable life, wife and children decided to reveal the family that he was actually a woman, of course, everyone was perplexed, she lived simply unhappy 45 years of his life to finally have the courage to express your true self!
This society we live in is hypocritical and a liar! Are futile and can never respect the feelings of people, know what makes me furious, the simple fact that the majority of men, 98%, admire transsexuals in the night and during the day or the entire life, these same men hurt feelings. We live in a society where there is no respect and tolerance for differences, we should open our eyes if we want a fairer and better world in the future. We should ask ourselves: "What are we doing to our lives?"
We must learn to exploit the next, in books and teachings, not only Buddhists but also to many religions, love is sent unconditionally, but unfortunately we do not know disseminate it that we are selfish, selfish, consequential .... Everything would be so much easier if we can see life as a dream ... When you share that point of view, what other form of evil is not so much importance! If you love someone, but feel discouraged to take this love, just because that someone is transsexual, or mentally ill, or have any physical problem do not waste time! Run behind your love because you run a serious risk of living a whole life miserable, worshiped a false happiness, and why? Because you can not cope with society and their own fears and desires!
Make a good thing now, while you can ... Fight for what you believe ... Thank all the days of his life, living is a blessing and a unique opportunity, tomorrow may be too late! Not pass 45 years of his life so miserable liar and ... Reacting is an option! Support the next! Semer good things is the first step to living well is the example of some form, or in your company or even planting a tree ... Take a deep breath and say: "I am alive today and will be a wonderful day" even a bad day, the possibility of change is within you! Be compassionate and loving, even if they do not win anything in return, do not expect anything in return ... Make the well because sooner or later it will be remembered spiritually!
Do not waste your life with something that will not add anything good, with something that never makes you a better human being, give yourself a chance ... Enhances the love in all its forms and all its fullness, practice compassion ... this is true spirituality!

ResponderExcluirEu prefiro expressar-me em portugues.
Não vou comentar muito o teu post até porque, pelo que li, consigo entender e simpatizar com tudo o que disseste, em particular com o facto de o Mundo ter ainda muito para "evoluir".
Fico feliz por teres criado este blog, por sentires esse desejo de te expressares de uma forma mais solta, onde o texto descreve o que te vai na alma.
Continuação de bons posts
eu vou passando por aqui para comentar
