SHE WAS "JYOTI SINGH PANDEY" SHE SHOULD NOT HAVE DIED>

Tears your heart

RIP Damini. We pray that your death will not be in vain. That the people of India will unite to make this place a better one for all those who are left behind. Amen.

Finally a picture of Damini / Nirbhaya!

Can't miss the spark in her eyes. Definitely a person with sweet dreams and ambitions....bitterly snuffed out. 

 

She was a student
She was 23
Her fault some people say because she boarded the wrong bus
And oh yeah
SHE WAS A GIRL
Six men raped her one by one and then used an iron rod to tear her vagina-

Small intestine and large intestine came out They left her to die on the road Naked!   Wounded!  Exposed!  Devastated What’s more is that no one even turned to look at her No one even bothered to throw a shawl on the ill-clad ill-fated girl She can never live a normal married life again She Went into coma five times since 16th December She was unconscious Critical and hasn't been able to stop crying But don’t worry She wasn't your sister She wasn't your daughter   But she could be. The brutality has to stop right here guys These people deserve capital punishment for their cruel, Perverted act She died Saturday 29th December 2012Rest in Peace and I pray that her killers get the WORST punishment possible This doesn't only happen in India But in every country around the world. .Is this how we treat our women?

It Makes me ashamed to even live on this planet today If her death Touches you and you are against RAPE   "Write RIP"  If u Support RAPE  "IGNORE"

RIP  Damini.

Thank you for making the world sit up, to wake up to the long drawn suffering of all womankind. You had to give up your beautiful life, to snuff your tender dreams to do this. I hope the world becomes a better place for the sacrifice you have made and for the fight you put up. In many ways, we are all responsible - when we show preference for the male child, when we support the thought that 'only men' are heirs to a bloodline and therefore yearn to keep our 'family tree' going through male progeny. When we use women as objects of desire in film and advertisement, when we use a woman's body to promote an object of desire( and do not for a moment think of it's far reaching consequences on those who want but cannot fulfill those desires. And hence bring out their frustration on their own women or other women, or anybody weaker for that matter.).

I am not justifying the behavior of these brutes, but I'm only trying to understand why. The main accused was also married, had a wife who died. He perhaps had desires that had to be suppressed while others around him seemed to 'have it all'. The youngest - a juvenile-going-on-adult, is a child of modern times. He sees youngsters of his age flaunting trappings that he can never dream of having perhaps. A frustration builds up inside, which then is expressed on a vulnerable victim. Who's to be blamed? The ever widening disparity between the have and the have-nots, the ever rising importance given to money and material possessions, the ever widening gap between the earnings and yearnings, are all signs of a dangerous cocktail that can only lead to destruction.

Coming to think of it, there is only so much money in the whole wide world. There is not going to be 'extra' coming in from outer space. The leaders of the world NEED to think of a way to bring back monetary balance. As Gandhi  said, "There's enough in this world for everyone's need but not for everyone's greed." The rich get rich to do charity. What kind of charity is this that wants to take away from the weak and then 'hand down' to the 'have-nots' in a show of beneficence?

"How many miles must a man walk down, before he is called a 'man'?" For to be a "man" means to be human, which means to be compassionate and sensitive. Are we sensitive to what impact our actions have on our surroundings?
Let us all sit and think and think from the heart. To quote Dr  Lou Marinoff   (founding President of the American Philosophical Practitioners Association)- "How do we feel compassion for others if we are only guided by our head? I think that is not enough. There has to be a practice of the heart, too."

"Let me be more mother than the mother herself in my love and defense of the child who is not flesh of my flesh. Help me to make one of my children my most perfect poem and leave within him or her my most melodious melody from that day when my own lips no longer sing.”  - from "A Teacher's Prayer"
