Guest guest Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 you say thatI should not switch on news channels, then you should not watch anyserials either." Mother wanted to know why. I then explained that ifthe news channels were full of scams involving money and power,serials were full of scandals, involving adultery."Okay, if news channels are the devil, serials are the deep sea. SriRamakrishna was quite right in saying that KK is the axis of allevils in this age," mother said."Mom, KK? The serial Keshav Kalshi has receded from public memory.You are talking history," I butted in."My dear, KK is not your Keshav Kalshi, or his gang of goons. KK iskamini and kanchan, which Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa said will bethe root cause of all our modern evils. He was really a visionarywhen he cautioned us to be careful about the above two Ks," mom wenton.What she said was true. In one way or the other, it was either money(kanchan) or women (kamini) that lay behind all the recent scandalsplaguing society today. But they are both so ubiquitous that itseems there is no way out of the conundrum.When I emerged from my stream of thought, I heard mother ending herobservation with the words, "I accept that it is difficult in moderntimes to keep up our standards, but we all can do one thing — becareful not to wear our weakness for K and K on our sleeve. And, bythe way, Sri Ramakrishna's birth anniversary falls tomorrow!"Now how's that for a lesson in morality, the media, and mothers? What are the most popular cars?
