A wish to live beyond time

This is in human psyche that they want to be remembered after their time is over.

They do take steps, do things to keep their name alive. One of the most widely accepted and acted practice is to have children (purkhon ka naam zinda rakhne ke liye).

Besides this, people do various acts like building monuments, starting charities and even writing names on ruins for one wish i.e. to be remembered.

How this wish is fulfilled in different regions and cultures? share any interesting observations and experiments?

No, its like wishing for continuity when you know that you are going to die after sometime.

BTW, why people are crazy about having aulad e nareena to carry their names?

Re: A wish to live beyond time

Egyptian mummies got a concept of life hereafter.. but may be pharaohs used that to exist forever. :hmmm:

Re: A wish to live beyond time

olad e maddena? is it really a term opposite to aulad e nareena?

Re: A wish to live beyond time

yes. I was seeking your expert opinion, after you come up with an intelligent statement. But sometimes, khush-fehmi ziada der zinda nahin rehti :p

Re: A wish to live beyond time

It is not valid term.

Nar = male, mada = female

I tried to fit oulad e madeena... as Larki ki paidaish....
