Whats There in Name?
Name!.....Image!
You live for the Image; not for yourself, not for others, but only for the image.
As soon as you are born, you are given a name. A Name, that becomes your identity. A Name, by which everyone knows you. A Name, which means you.
Everything you do- whether its good or bad, right or wrong- you are identified with a Name. Imagine what would happen if you dont have any name. You would be like a blade of grass- amongst thousands in the field, a ripple in the river, a leaf on the tree, a sand particle in the desert. Have we ever tried to Name them? You could be a charming person like a rose, but still you are not unique- there are thousands of roses. You could carry urself in a dignified manner like a ripple, but you are not unique. You could be the creator, but you are still a blade of grass.
Have we ever tried to Name them? Imagine a poor child who begs at the red signal at the crossroads. Have you ever thought what that childs Name could be? What about the butterfly which appeased you with its vibrant color? Is there any Name for the drop of water which quenched your thirst when you were walking alone in the desert. What was the Name of the person who showed you the path way back home? Definately i would never know his Name. But he left an Image with me, which had flown down the river of time.
Then what is it thats more important? The Name or the Image? ....
Anyway only for the Name that we do what we do. We want everyone to see as someone big, i.e. our Name should mean something big. We always want to grow and struggle to achieve higher goals. So that others can say that He/Name is doing good, is growning. Imagine, will it all happen if there is no Name. We wont try to grow, as it wont be recognised. So for an individual the Name is more important than his Image. In a way we can say that Image is a subset of Name. And for a person who doesnt know our Name its the Image thats important. According to the situation, the thing by which others identify us is important.
