Theories, Thinkers and We
***********************
Many great Thinkers, Theories, Ideas and Ideologies have emerged and vanished, and many new will gradually come into picture.
All of them explain and interprete the same Reality but very differently. That's why one Idea kills another and different Ideologies remain in Conflict with each other.
Different Sciences agree and disagree with each other in explaining the same Reality or telling the same Truth.
All Books and Classrooms are filled with infinite number of Thesis, Hypothesis, Propositions, Frameworks and Models to capture the essence of the same Reality.
All Thinkers and Theories have been criticised and will be criticised for not capturing the true reality of Nature, Life and Society.
All these conflicts in the intellectual arena are leaving us confused and with no proper Answer, that's why i often wonder "Does anyone really know anything?" and i ask this to myself-
"HAS EVERY GENIUS MADE US FOOL IN SOME WAY OR THE OTHER?"
This poetry is saying the same thing-
इस इक हिजाब पे सौ बे-हिजाबियाँ सदक़े,
जहाँ से चाहता हूँ तुम्को देखता हूँ मैं।
बताने वाले वहीं पर बताते हैं मंज़िल,
हज़ार बार जहाँ से गुज़र चुका हूँ मैं।
