Globalisation

For many in the history of mankind certain terms must have attained their attention either in elaborate terms or in many fixed definition where the approach varies according to the situation. In all these definitions and terms, the most vibrant among all is the pattern title of ‘Globalisation.’ Many definitions have been provided to extract the main theme of its implications but the most authentic one can be referred to as from the world bank. In the categorical diction of the world bank, Globalisation manifest itself as “The growing integration of economies and societies around the world and an inevitable phenomena in human history which brought in closed contact the world through exchange of goods, products, information technology and overall the culture.”

Globalisation in today’s world is in short the strengthened hand for better economy and in developing economy of a country to far hands two leading institutes of the world are in full pace named as IMF and World Bank. These two leading financial institutes are changing the structure of globalisation. On flapping the pages of world history, the collapse of soviet bloc provided an amun opportunity to its rival arch the position to rule and manage the world economy. With the passage of time, the process of globalisation has been implemented, strengthened and promoted through these two head economical institutes of the world. Amor Sarr, in very low tone commented over the status of these institutes which are playing strong key role in the globalisation phenomena that these institutes are not for mere profit, but their main profit is to control the global south, G-8 natural resources, land, labor and markets. The situation reflects the deregulation of global economy market, information technology in trade, banks, broad cast media and telecommunication.

When the lashes of 20th century witnessed the dawn of new era, it experienced many changes ranging from environment to the great wars. The process of globalisation is different which is happening today from that of early times. In today’s globalisation it involves geographical changes as well as certain other international activities as like the interdependence and interconnection of world economy globally. Economy wise globalisation is effecting the lives of poor, the people of developing countries. It is not for poor, not for environment, not for economic stability of poor people and developing countries but it is only for the rich.  At the dawn of twentieth century, history witnessed many changes of hybrid characteristics in mankind but they were not new as mankind has been involved in the process of interaction for so long through out the history but today’s globalisation is different due to its rapid speed due to various reasons on the hit list which is connectivity. Internet has revived the shape of globalisation sometimes in the shades of rules and on many occasion devoid of having any rules. For the following reasons no one can assess its impact on culture, politics, economy, finance, ecology, and the utmost human socio-psychological environment. Hobs Bann commented on these changes as “Globalisation means wider, but not necessarily equal, accurate for all, and will lead to an increased disparity between the haves and have not's.”  In today’s world incase to resist the process they give it the name of nationalism, fundamentalism and many other such ‘isms.’ For many globalisation benefits and for so many it fits in the word of befall.  In today’s world globalisation is not new but the speed which it has gained is new having an acceleration for better global economy capital.

Friend- Dost.. A Translation..

[The said article appeared in Express written by Javaid Chaudry in Urdu]
After getting through the hard paths of exams for her as she belonged to a family who were hand to mouth, she stepped into the merit list of medical college. She shared her ancestral veins with the soil of Mianwali. In her class, two students comparted two benches who were a bookmark for their friendship. One may provide them the names MAZHAR and AMJAD. Both were intelligent, hardworking, and on occasion, they have grabbed the top positions respectively. In the category of intelligentsia and workaholic attributes, both were likewise but in the genre of personality, they expressed oxymoronic qualities. Personality wise MAZHAR was on the mark benches of beauty where as AMJAD reflected the fancy of being normal in comparison to his friend. They stepped into the medical college, where they received the company of female students and it was the moment when the war of silenced envy commenced in between them. MAZHAR grabbed enormous attention from the opposite sex where as the position with AMJAD was slightly different. So with that, the seed of envy placed itself easily in the heart of AMJAD for his friend MAZHAR. With slow pace, the seed gained the personae of a tree and at the verge, the fire of jealousy erupted in its full swing. MAZHAR considered everything as before and didn't judge the swift in the attitude of AMJAD. MAZHAR was due informed by his fellows regarding the up brought changes in his friend but he didn't heed much towards their remarks and floated in the belief of being best friends as ever. here, I would apply some breaks to my pen before entering into the details of that woman's issue and would try to explain the chemistry of "jealousy." "Jealousy" is that kind of human emotion which in the early stages invades the capability of hard work in human. Overview the jealous stricken people of the world, they would always be found in a state of laziness and its world's reality that envied persons never works hard. Why? Here I would flip back towards the story line of that lady. With AMJAD the same scenario occurred, he got clutched in the turmoil of jealousy and avoided hard work. For the whole day, he planned of destruction for MAZHAR, in the process of wandering thoughts, exams ruled and he received the news of being failed. MAZHAR felt dejected over the failure of his friend but AMJAD excused him as his reason of being failed. AMJAD listed pity of MAZHAR as his cunningness and hypocrisy. the situation prevailed in the same context for the next year and AMJAD was expelled from the college as his result projected the stamp of "failed." with his belongings, he went straight back to his village, where as MAZHAR topped the session for his third consecutive space and proceeded in fast pace towards the valley of success. At village, AMJAD'S jealousy erupted with revenge and vengeance.  For MAZHAR, AMJAD still crafted the vision of friendship, but with AMJAD, the elements of "foe-synonyms" paved its way and then arrived the night on which fates changed for both.MAZHAR was on his way back to Lahore and that was only in the knowledge book of AMJAD. MAZHAR'S village was on a slight distance from the road due to which people often traveled to the village from road by foot.
            On the same night, MAZHAR stopped on the road and AMJAD was there to receive him. They proceeded towards their village. On their way, a deserted place ignited the emotions of AMJAD'S envy, and he grabbed the pistol, shouted and leveled six bullets in MAZHAR'S chest. That the third stage AMJAD'S jealousy, on which a human shapes to be guilty and that's what AMJAD was. What happened at the end of this incident, MAZHAR lost his life and AMJAD was waiting for his doom, where their village lost two incredible doctors. This incident was narrated to me via letter by that lady and she inquired at the end, who is the killer of both these incredible?
            In my opinion, Envy was their killer. "Hard work" is the blessed gift from Allah for the human. "Human being" is such a creature of Allah almighty, that he never stops hard work, struggle and he tries in what ever he is being hanged to. Have you ever noticed those persons who loose parts of their bodies in a "bomb blast" but still they believe in the notion of struggle. Their hands amputated and still they struggle converting their elbows in hands. What would any one suggestion the definition for that?? that's the great zeal of human psyche for hard work which never confronts defeat but its the feeling of envy which flashes the embers of jealousy and burst the emotion of hard work in a human.
            You must have observed some animals, whenever they follow their opposite sex for mating and if in the mean time, the opposite gender chooses her male partner, the rest departs peacefully. the following case is opposite in the matters of human, he adopts the notion of revenge, in his anger and vengeance, he sprinkles acid on the face of ladies, or in certain cases, kills their fiancĂ©e's. All these are the outputs of ENVY therefore I think envy is the most dangerous and strong emotion of human psyche. This is such an emotion which erases the beliefs, creed and mercies of an individual and here I would like to quote a very interesting belief. In the history of human being to date, those who are wearing the crowns of success in their lives have ruled in reality their emotion of envy. just over view from EDISON to EINSTEIN, and ABRAHAM LINCLON to GANDHI, and from BILL GATES to DOCTOR YOUNIS, you would experience that there are such people who understood their envy, and not even they controlled it but shaped it in a positive manner, and due to this they are the landmarks of success. The same happened with AMJAD. He was born with poor looks in contrast to MAZHAR'S who was a man of sound looks. Nature encountered him with MAZHAR so that he may feel the envy and in the long run, this envy should create something positively in him through which he can excel in life.  He didn't understand his strength and he flowed down in the tides of envy. He not even destroyed MAZHAR but himself too. If AMJAD has converted his strength of envy into success, he would have been the best doctor of the country and people would have appreciated his ugliness.
            Now I would steer towards the technique through which we can challenge the emotion of envy in a positive way. It is very easy and simple. We ought to be jealous from someone and should work hard. If we worked eight hours before being jealous, so now we should increase it up to twelve hours. In the same perspective, after one month of struggle this envy should be in the shape of applauds and the deity of success would kiss our fore head. Only hard work is such feelings which reshapes envy into appreciation and just fancy the trauma of human psychology, whenever he is involved in jealousy, he sides away the hard work and receives the doom of AMJAD. envy can be a blessing for human if someone understand the worth of envy, and learns its positive use then for success in the world he wont need any other emotion as envy can be a best friend of human as well.

Mahatma Gandhi's words for our prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H)

Mahatma Gandhi, statement published in “Young India”, 1924:
“I wanted to know the best of the life of one who holds today an undisputed sway over the hearts of millions of mankind… I became more than ever convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days in the scheme of life. It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of the Prophet the scrupulous regard for pledges, his intense devotion to his friends and followers, his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission. These and not the sword carried everything before them and surmounted every obstacle. When I closed the second volume (of the Prophet’s biography), I was sorry there was not more for me to read of that great life.”

English Version of the Poem "Ek Kaam Karna"

"Eik Kam Kerna...."

Suno ! Eik Kam Kerna.
Chand say kuch mati lana
Pher us say du but bunana,
eik teray jaisa or eik meray jaisa
Or un buton ko toor dena,
Taakay tum mein kuch kuch mein reh jaon
Or
Muj mein kuch kuch tum...


English Version:
"Comply with a Task"
listen! comply with a task
from moon get some soil'
carve two ediolon from thee
one resembles thou, the other thy self
and strike both of them hard
for some parts to be merged in me,
and the remaining in you…
