The bad and the ugly among our "good" people!!

It’s been a season of coincidences off late for me.

I was conducting a session on Listening skills for a client the last module of which ended in the afternoon today where I had shared an ad of Red Label tea where they conducted a social experiment at the Churchgate station in Mumbai facilitating a conversation between an “ordinary” woman and a “sex worker”.

I had shown that video as part of a set up towards discussing barriers to listening.

That video experience landed very well with the audience as always but I would not have spoken about it here had it not been for this sheer “coincidence” where I come across this video in FB thanks to you Dola Dasgupta; less than an hour after my session got over.

Thanks a lot for this.

While it’s appalling and heart breaking to hear what self-righteous people will do to punish the “bad people” in the world, it was also inspiring and uplifting to listen to stories like that of Sandhya.

I remembered this second line of a prayer:

...Ek noor te sab jag upajya, koun bhalley koun mandey

(From the One Light, the entire universe welled up. So who is good, and who is bad?)

Wishing her well and faster healing.

Once again thanks a lot for this Dola.
