Long history of human civilization is a history of struggle against more than many odds, our ancestors had to fight with environment, with weather conditions, with other living species and more often than not against their own fellow homo sapiens, quest for survival forced them to possess the necessary tools to help them fight the odds, we, modern human beings, inherited the same sense of an ongoing quest for survival. Today’s larceny can be traced back to the same old quest for survival, however wars, conquests , rise and fall of the empires has only strengthened the greed to own more than required and to snatch it from those who can not protect it for themselves.

With power may come sense of responsibility, its only a question of who you attribute it to, but let’s not go there for now, let’s be cynical about it because most often its not the responsibility but a sense of supernumerary achievement. A sense of needless achievement is bound to accompany “arrogance”, and arrogance is an iron curtain to eyes of human conscious. A track on the way to power and greed has no destiny, only mile stones, it does not matter whether the milestone is mountain of human skulls or a golden throne. Duswari, we play God when we don’t believe in God, he lives in us when we stop living for him. Today human beings stand at a historical epic of human civilization; we can draw, enact and impose impressive moral values, we can strive to establish egalitarian societies, however as long as the source of inspiration is not correct our efforts will prove futile.
