In Between Truth and Untruth... Karna and Amma J Jayalalithaa
Truth, untruth, justice and injustice, are all but only the members of the same family. The person who is suppose to speak truth and award justice when decided to speak the untruth through silence and award injustice by taking the sides of protecting own image, reputation and become false, should we cry the €truth' has died or hope, truth is still alive?
No one will ever forget Karna and his glory, valiancy, honesty, commitment and true spirit of offering even own life to others. But from birth to death, Karna suffered ignominy and injustice due to those who does not want to speak truth and provide justice.
The own mother of Karna, the Kunthi, the great grand father of the entire Kauravas - the Bhisma, the Lord Krishna, all of them knew the fact that Karna was Kshathrya and also about his origin. But when Karna was humiliated by Drona and others in public, none of them, Kunthi, Bhisma or Krishan were honest enough to speak the truth. All of them refused to be honest and willingly did great injustice to Karna. In many occasions, karma was humiliated in the name of his cast and unknown origin.
Mother represents €True Love, Truth and Justice' and she always equals to the highest court or judiciary system of our modern world.
The great grand father - Bhisma was supposed to be progenitor of the entire Kaurava clan, represent the super king or equivalent of the central government.
The Lord Krishna represents the protector of every life (savior and justice).
But the highest court - the mother Kunthi, the Bhisham, the central government and the protector of the universe - the Lord Krishna, all of them never spoke truth and gave justice to Karna because of own hidden and utterly selfish interests.
Mother Kunthi, the equivalent of the highest court doesn't want to speak truth and do justice because if she does so, it would affect her respect and glory. Ironically, she was the principle culprit, who gave birth to Karna. Bhisma, the equivalent of central government did not speak because, if he intervenes and speak truth, karma might shift his allegiance to Pandavas from Kauravas and that might not go well for his position.
Lord Krishna was partial and if Pandavas know that Karna was their brother, they might not wage Mahabharata war and that might affect his calculations and plans.
Remember, as long as Mahabharata remains on earth, more than any other character, the name of Karna will remain forever.
Today Amma J Jayalalithaa's plight is no way different from that of Karna in Mahabharata. Everyone accused Karna and said he was not Kshathrya. Similarly, a small population of people speaks badly about Amma. Surpassing every criticism and injustice, karma proved his worth. At the end, the mother Kunthi, the centre of truth and justice, sat near Karna when he was in the death bed and wept loudly to the world for the injustice she had done to him.
Truth cannot be buried forever even by those who are suppose to speak truth and do justice, when refuses to do so, is what the life of karma tells us. Day is not faraway Amma J Jayalalithaa will get justice and all those who were responsible for the injustice of Amma will weep and regret like Kunthi, in Mahabharata. It is in the hands of millions and millions of electorates.
