To be or Not To be...

Last night my friend gave me a call and asked, “Since last so many days you have not updated your blog, I was waiting that if you can put some stories or incidence”. Yeah, true since so long was not able to write anything. Not because I cannot read or write now a days or I got fed up of doing it. Nope, it’s nothing like that. When a person writes or pen down any thought of that person on a piece of paper he usually wish to be free from all unnecessary thoughts. It is not because he is a writer or philosopher but just because to be true to his pen. Anyways let’s not enter in to philosophy part. I was actually dealing with the so many questions due to which I was unable to give answer to myself. My situation was like Hamlet. !! Sorry I am not, but the main phrase I have gone through was “to be or not to be”. 
Now what does this mean? It is an usual form of life that everyone faces. No one in this world is untouched from this phenomenon.  It is not only me but every one of us enters in the role of Hamlet in one or the other phrase of life. Here we enter in to the difficult problem where we become unable to decide to be or not to be. Why to go so long? We have a superb example in our puranas as well. Don’t you remember Arjuna {Parth} of Mahabharata, we call reason for the creation of Bhagvat Geeta! He was the one who fell into this situation of To be or Not to be, and here we are equipped with the holy answer “Geeta” for all our problems from management to strategy, from life to corporate and what not. So, the question and state of Hamlet of Arjuna evoke Lord Shrikrishna to recite Geeta to Arjuna. Here Arjuna is a representative of all of us. Cause we are the only person who always require answer for something or other. But , we all will get our personalized Krishna is not necessary. 
How strange it is, a simple mark “?” has so much to stop …. Isn’t it ? but a symbol which has no separate identity, has so much of strength to change the world and minds of a human being and their identities. But somehow it is important that we must fell in to this situation. It is said, “It is ok if do not have any answer but it is not ok if do not have any question, this will lead to the end of the story ”. If you are asking questions it means you are alive and have strength in your existence. These questions may be anything and related to anybody but will support to your livelihood. Once we enter in to the role of the Arjuna we will surely get our Krishna {Krishna can be any person, situation, location, animal or anything}. Situation is the same just an era is changed. So what?!!
