Sumanth,
agreed, But to accept the traits of the heroes we need to accept two thing in my opinion.
1)All of these heroes are just that. Heros of classic stories. They might have been based on real human traits( not of one but of many)
2)They had their own misgivings like any other human. But what stood the time is their overall trait.
Once we accept the above two, what you said becomes true. And that in my opinion is why these two epics stood the Time.
how do we identify what trait(s) one can follow in a lifetime? This in my opinion varies with the society one lives in. What is acceptible and what is not depends on the place and time one is in his/her lifetime.
for example, over here in Mass, gay marriage is acceptible and legal. It was not two years back but it is now. What is the result? People now are not discriminated because of their lifestyle. Will this stand Time? I do not know but it was not an acceptible form earlier but it is now.
The reason for giving the example is to show how, aspects of life like a contradictory lifestyle(still in some society) has become acceptible in some societies.
What is good or what is bad is defined more by Time and therefore is more of a perception rather than a "Static Rule". Private Reply to Ganesh Ram (new win) |
