Mumbai: Justice Bilal Nazaki and Justice (Mrs.) Kapase-Tahiliyani of a Division of the Mumbai High Court have asked the Central Government to provide details, through an affidavit, about the projects undertaken by the Government for Hindus and raised a query whether Hindu interest is protected while granting various facilities to the minorities under different schemes.
The Central Government has undertaken a scheme to grant scholarships to 20,000 students from all over the country every year. Under the scheme, every State will be provided funds as per the number of minority students in the State. The Government has excluded Hindu and Jain students from this scheme. Out of the students from Muslim, Christian, Sikh, Buddhist and Parsi communities from all States, 14585, 2540, 2028, 840 and 7 students respectively will be given this scholarship. Adv. Sanjiv Punhalekar has filed a PIL against this scheme as it does not follow the principle of secularism and has demanded to conduct a judicial inquiry into the matter.
The Advocate General, Ghulam Vahanvati of the Supreme Court was present in the Court during the hearing of this case when Judge Nazaki posed the above question to him. Adv. General Vahanvati replied that the Government does not discriminate and has schemes for even Hindus as there are schemes for Muslims and Christians. He was then asked as to why Hindus were excluded from the above scheme.

Is Hindu interest neglected while providing facilities to minorities?: HC to Central Govt.
Who rules Kerala Now?
Dr. Babu Suseelan
Kerala, lands end of India, Parasurama’s own country, the land of Snkaracharya, and Aryabhatta is now ruled by the anti Hindu, atheist Marxist Party. The Marxists have won the election because of public dissatisfaction with the previous Congress government. But the Marxists won on largely on the grounds of the Muslim-Christian power groups. The current government is ruled by the Marxists, but Kerala is really ruled by a relatively fixed group of privileged group of Christians and Muslims. The privileged Christian and Muslim groups dominate the economy, education, agriculture, rural and urban land, financial institutions, estates and the government power centers.
In terms of access and sheer number of appointments in government, corporations, and semi-private organizations, Universities and government controlled industries, the Christian Church and Muslim League involvement in shaping government decision making process is extensive. The Christian-Muslim power elite have the greatest influence with the politicians in the Marxist party and the Congress party.
Generally speaking, the Christian-Muslim power elite determine the outcome of every policy. If the power-elite decide to move in the direction of policy change, it develops plan to enlist the support from Christian-Muslim masses and pressure political parties to defeat any program suggested by the government. Whether the policy is to regulate private colleges, hospitals, schools or estates, urban land use, financial institutions or crime control, the government is forced by the power-elite.
The Christian-Muslim power elite involves in the candidate selection process for the assembly and parliament election through direct and often very subtle means. They operate from within and outside the democratic process. The political parties also collude with the Christian Churches and the Muslim money mafia. As a result, party candidates will endorse policy preferences of the Christian-Muslim power-elite.
The disorganized majority Hindus can only participate in the election process and they have no organized voice in candidate selection or in any policy formulation that affects the majority Hindus. The numerical Hindu majority have no political content whatsoever in determining crucial issues affecting them. Whether it is Devasom Bill, Sabarimala or the management of Hindu Temples, Hindus stand alone on the sidelines. Marxist or Congress MLAS with a Hindu name are very eager to “go along to get along” –and they are available to help the Christian-Muslim power-elite and the phony secular party bosses. They are very enthusiastic and eager to please the Christian-Muslim power elite and their corrupt party bosses than represent Hindu interests. They are Hindu in name only without commitment, conviction or spine. These phony secular MLS with Hindu name are openly betraying our country, culture and tradition. There is not a single MLA in Kerala assembly dares to say in public “I am Hindu”.
The government has confiscated Hindu temple funds, temple land and all temple jewels worth millions of rupees. Rural and urban lands belonging to Hindus are confiscated for Housing colonies and the houses are allocated for Muslims and Christians for changing demography to create vote banks.
The Christian-Muslim power elite have great power in relation to state government, the police, judiciary and the bureaucracy. Hindus are relatively powerless in the face of the atheist-phony secular government. The Marxist government is more responsive to Marxist trade unions, Christian Churches, Muslim money mafia and rich estate owners.
Hindu organizations are harassed by willful and arrogant police, bureaucrats who encroach upon their rights. The Hindu majority participate in the election process. But in reality, evidence suggest there is a privileged upper class of Christian and Muslim groups by virtue of their dominant role control the economy, education, banking, social policy and the government policy formulation in Kerala.
The mass media-newspapers, magazines, television and radio in Kerala are one outlet for Christian-Muslim opinion shaping network. They play a large role in shaping public policies favorable to Christians and Muslims. The mass media in Kerala have a complex relationship to the Church and Muslim money mafia. Their allegiance is to the power-elite and the Christian-Muslim business community and the Church leaders. The privileged elite have the means by which they can ensure that the government fulfills their interests of economic accumulation, control of educational institution, forestland encroachment and political domination.
The turbulent environment in Kerala has thrust up new issues related to the growing perception that there is an unholy nexus among fraudulent political leaders and the Christian-Muslim money mafia. This in turn, created urgency and tension among caste based organizations. The tension and dilemmas must lead them to redefine their purpose and to reconceptualize their practice. It is time for caste based organizations to reformulate their strategies based upon Hindutva. Through the years they have groped for ways to unite their caste followers. It was not altogether successful. In response to the social-political and economic forces impinging upon Hindus, the caste organization must join together and work for Hindu unity. Hindu unity will definitely enable them to direct their attention to develop effective intervention strategies to complement the sets available to change the current political scene. Hindus have the knowledge and skill for devising strategies for introducing, implementing, and institutionalizing change favorable for them.
Hindus must assert themselves and demand redress from their tormentors. Currently, Hindus are dangerously defensive and protecting themselves by denial, passivity, apathy, and indifference. Instead of trying to make a good impression on their enemies, Hindus must gain self-confidence, esteem and power. Assertive, proud and politically conscious Hindus can become partners in Kerala government, and can articulate the values and ideals of our Hindu tradition.

What Hindus Ought To Do as The World Turns
Dr Babu Suseelan
We are living in a world of information explosion, Jihadi terrorism, psychological warfare, deceptive religious conversion, social conflict and economic chaos. It also affects Hindus one sixth of the world's population. Most of the Hindus know that jihadi terrorism, coercive religious conversion, phony secularism an corruption will significantly affect our life. Hindus have access to innumerable facts about the matter. Yet, the behavior of many Hindus clearly demonstrates they do not really believe in it. They manage to ignore the facts, and keep from perceiving the relevance to Hindu society. Most of the Hindus are afraid to make a clear, correct and critical judgment on various issues that affect our life, liberty and future.
For some people, there is no point. They just want to survive. The famous Russian writer Chekhov said, "You ask me what life is? It is like a Carrot. A Carrot is a Carrot." We are all created by GOD. We can lie back and enjoy it, or we can occupy ourselves in trying to understand more about what is going on. There is nothing we can do to alter it, even when we can understand it. We can only play with it, experience it. For many people, Man is the smallest piece of dust in the universe.
History frighten many people. They are afraid to make any opinion at all. Because in the past people did terrible things in the name of faith and politics. As a result it is best to have no opinions at all. It is wrong to take a position on anything, worse still is to try to impose our wishes and philosophy on to others who blindly follow dangerous dogmas.
A passive voyeurism will have to suffice, preferably uncritical and politically correct, because it is wrong to suggest that any one way of life is superior to another. That way lies a moral vacuum, where nothing is right and nothing really wrong. That way also lies inertia, tolerance of intolerance, passivity, apathy, denial and indifference. Such persons prepares a path for surrender and slavery. It is an escape route from freedom and responsibility. such persons make unreasonable compromises for the wrong reasons.
Our existence in the world has meaning and purpose. As Hindus, we are unique. We have justifiable reasons for doing things to create a sense of continuity, connection and a sense of direction. Without a clear direction, based on our sacred past, we may feel disoriented. In this world of dangerous, irrational faiths, Jihadi terrorism, coercive religious conversion and paradoxes, Hindus need to recognize the pitfalls and traps that lie ahead and find our place and role in the world. If we don't make a clear, correct and comprehensive perspective on porcupine people, the conspirator groups, the masked subversive agents, How can Hindus live in peace, proud and tranquility?
As Hindus regain confidence and strength, we have to do things we haven't seen before. That means, the territory we are moving is new, unknown and as a consequence, we are not going to like the processes and the consequences. We have to set and reset things continuously until we, Hindus regain our pride, respect, dignity and freedom.
We, Hindus have to develop a new willing spirit and enrich ourselves with extra vigor and commitment for our scared system. We do not have time to waste on analysis and reach paralysis and inaction.
The threats we face from within and without are real and our efforts shall be devoted to finding effective ways for challenging our threats. Our belief about the nature of threats inevitably affects the goal we seek, and the methods we employ. There are limits to how far and how fast we can run with pacifism, inaction, appeasement and apathy. These are ineffective way of dealing the deadly threats from Jihadi terrorists, missionary criminal thinkers and the corrupt misguided bogus secularists. Hindus need to use everything we can including positive violence and effective behavior techniques. Hindus can only survive the course of evolution, if Hindus show the courage, force, strength and assertiveness within our capacity.
Deafening Media Silence
On July 31, the Mumbai High Court dropped MCOCA charges against Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur and others. This news seems to have stunned the media into an intriguing silence which is more deafening because of the fact that when Sadhvi Pragya was charged with MCOCA, the print and the electronic media raised a great hue and cry. The media pounced upon the story like a hungry pack of wolves. Secularists and human rights activists ventured very hard to create the illusion of what they coined as ‘Hindu Terrorism'. The same pious men and women had been gloating over, all along, the hard reality of Islamic terrorism in the world by trying to explain it away attributing its rise to various social, political and economic reasons.
But the self-professed secularists, liberals and human rights people turned deaf, dumb and blind to the sunshine of the reality of the MCOCA withdrawn against those who were framed into the plot. These self-righteous people owe an apology to the nation for having jumped to brand these individuals as culprits much before the investigation had been completed and any court of law had given its verdict. There was an unhealthy competition among them to raise the bogey of ‘Hindu terrorism'.
This reminds us of a pattern in Indian media. Everything anti-Hindu and pro-Islamic is highlighted and trumpeted as a pious act of secularism. That is why the media has only tried to ignore the reality of the orgy of violence and burning alive of innocent persons in Godhra which had triggered the post-Godhra riots in Gujarat. Their hypocrisy stood further exposed when they tried to explain away the Godhra carnage and condemned only the post-Godhra violence as a black spot. They easily gloat over the clandestine activities of Christian missionaries but shout full throated if there is reaction against their anti-Hindu activities.
The bias in print and electronic media needs to be exposed. The common masses can sieve the truth and see it for themselves.

Punish Emraan
Tarun Vijay
Last week I was on a TV discussion on a famous channel with Shabana Azmi, Mahesh Bhatt and Emraan Hashmi, the complainant who said he was denied an apartment because of his faith. He could not provide a single instance that would substantiate his arguments. I was pained to see that instead of upholding the values of a justifiable secularism and fairness, these celebrities wanted to buy a few headlines through cheap gimmicks and didn't mind vitiating the communal atmosphere. They virtually had no argument, no facts to prove their so-called grievances, yet tried to humiliate and belittle a majority that has been so supportive of their careers and given them unlimited love without considering which religion they belong to. That they will return the love of people by maligning them speaks of their own deep-rooted prejudices against the majority.
Emraan Hashmi, who didn’t get fame through excellence in acting but by a stunt of kisses, has done a male Rakhi Sawant on the nation with gullible people watching in shock and a trivialized media lapping it up as a five-rupee ice candy. To such a shameless person who earned money and headlines with the majority Hindu support and showed the temerity to abuse them so fictitiously for the apparent reasons to buy media coverage for his coming movie, a severe punishment must be given charging him of vitiating the communal atmosphere and provoking hatred among people who are already fatigued with post-terror-strike trauma. In a country where the biggest house of the land — the Rashtrapati Bhavan — and the chief minister’s bungalow in Mumbai had been occupied by Muslims, Hashmi raised a fictitious issue to malign the majority and the land for cheap publicity. Nobody would object if the housing society is found guilty and punished, but what if Hashmi is proved a liar? Shouldn’t he be given an exemplary punishment simply because he wanted to kill the residual harmonious relations between the communities?
In any case, every house owner and a community-based society reserves the right to decide whom to sell or rent out property it owns. Like in Delhi and other cities, the feelings based on biradari or community bonds matter more than anything else. There are colonies for journalists and it’s very difficult, if not impossible, for a non-media person to get a house there. In IAS officers’ colonies, an IFS officer finds it difficult to get a house. It's the biradari feeling; everyone likes to live in a group with which he shares the worldview and can communicate. Likewise Punjabis face problems in finding a house on rent in many Delhi localities and in a Muslim-dominated area Hindus won’t be entertained — see the Okhla-Batla House locality. Many houseowners won’t rent out their property to meat-eaters even if they are Hindus and in some areas Tamils and Bengalis are preferred for being cool and peaceful, while in other areas they are not. So should it become mandatory for everyone to sell or rent out his property to anyone liking it? It’s an obscene proposition. One can try to change the communal biases through various other means but the way Hashmi has chosen. Persons like Hashmi give a bad name to their community also by raising such petty issues as a cover for advance publicity for their coming movies. Hence all Muslims and Hindus alike, in a show of solidarity that upholds values of the Indian tricolour, must refuse a house for a communally hateful Hashmi in Maharashtra for at least a year. That will serve as a deterrent for other "Rakhi Sawants" also who raised the issue of woman’s dignity — and earned publicity — through Women’s Rights Commission, etc, gained a hefty fee rise in the tinsel market and of course more roles.
Of late a tendency to use secularism for ruffling Hindu sensitivities has been dangerously on the rise. Someone has to work out a balance and mark a point where all such largesses would end. One segment of our society gets — on purely religious grounds — government reservations, special bank loans, segregated universities which receive huge amounts of grants from Saudi Arabia and Iran and open special centres to encourage learning about a world that breeds Taliban and terrorists. And collect donations to help those who have been accused by Delhi police as waging a war against the nation. Have you ever wondered why Muslim universities are always tagged to the Arab world and never think to have special centres to study our neighbouring countries like Nepal and Sri Lanka which have closer and friendlier civilisational ties with India? Why always the language and culture of those areas which have sent attackers and marauders to India find a warm heart on such campuses? Why not a Thai, a Laosian or a Cambodian study centre?
Every Khan in Bollywood lives on the money and popularity earned from non-discriminatory Indian people that goes beyond religious fault lines but not a single Khan has ever raised his voice in favor of justice to Hindus in any incident that involved their brutalization by jihadis or like-minded extremist elements. An unconfirmed incident of an "apartment sell refusal" becomes a national issue as the media take it up, simply because a Muslim was involved. But never, even for once, has a Muslim taken up the cause of Kashmiri Hindus ousted from their ancestral property in Kashmir and exiled to live as refugees in their own independent motherland called India. Neither a Shabana nor a Mahesh Bhatt raised his voice against the refusal of Kashmiri Muslim leaders to give "even an inch of land" to Amarnath pilgrims, for yatra camps. There are Muslims who win elections from Hindu majority constituencies, yet would not hesitate to hit at Hindu sentiments. Should that be taken as a token of their secularism? Why can't we have the spirit of Indianism above all boundaries?
These celebrities are taking Hindu sentiments for granted and think that their acting style would cover their communal prejudices. It comes out on occasions like the Hashmi episode.

Significance of ‘Raksha Bandhan’
V.N. Gopalakrishnan
Raksha Bandhan festival falls on August 5 this year. Rakha Bandhan symbolizes unconditional love between brothers and sisters and spreads harmony and brings in family bondage.
Raksha Bandhan is celebrated on the full moon day of the Hindu month of Shravana (July-August). The festival underlines the notion that everybody should live in harmonious coexistence with each other. It is being celebrated with joy and fervor. Exchange of gifts among dear ones make this occasion a sweet remembrance.
The festival holds immense significance in India and the custom of celebrating Raksha Bandhan started from time immemorial. On Raksha Bandhan (raksha means protection and bandhan means tie), sisters tie rakhi, a bracelet made of thread of different colours, on their brothers' wrist. The elder brother in return offers a gift to his sister and vows to look after her while an elder sister returns offers to her younger brother.
Rakhi symbolises the unconditional love between brothers and sisters and it binds the most beautiful relationship in an inseparable bond of love and trust. It spreads harmony and brings together the family members. On the Raksha Bandhan day, sisters pray for long life of their brothers and ask God to bless them. Brothers, in turn, give them gifts and promise life-long care. Traditionally, the brother and sister feed each other sweets.
It is not necessary that the rakhi can be given only to a brother by birth. Instead any male can be ‘adopted’ as a brother by tying a rakhi on the person i.e. ‘blood brothers and sisters’, whether they are cousins or friends. When a girl or woman ties a rakhi around the hand of a boy or man it means he will protect her from all dangers.
Indian history is replete with women asking for protection, through rakhi, from men who were neither their brothers, nor Hindus themselves. This protection thread saves from sins and removes diseases. By tying this thread, protection is afforded for a full one year and all kinds of fears are removed. It is said that while tying the rakhi, both sister and brother should pray for strength to protect the nation and Dharma.
Rakhi is celebrated as Rakhi Purnima in North India as well as in parts of Northwest India. The word "Purnima" means a full moon night. In Western India and parts of Maharashtra, Gujarat, and Goa this day is celebrated as Nariyal Purnima. On this day, an offering of a coconut (nariyal) is made to the sea, as a mark of respect to Lord Varuna, the God of the Sea. Nariyal Purnima marks the beginning of the fishing season and the fishermen, who depend on the sea for a living, make an offering to Lord Varuna so that they can reap bountiful fish from the sea. In parts of Gujarat, this day is celebrated as Pavitropana and people perform puja and worship of Lord Shiva on this day.
In Southern and Central parts of India including Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra and Orissa, this day is celebrated by the Brahmin community as Avani Avittam. In Karnataka, this day is celebrated as Upakarma by Yajurvedis when they commence the Vedic studies. As part of the Upakarma ritual, they also change their sacred threads.
In Madhya Pradesh, Chattisgarh, Jharkand and Bihar, this day is celebrated as Kajari Purnima. It is an important day for the farmers and women blessed with a son. The preparations of the Kajari festival start on the ninth day after Shravana Amavasya.
Bhavishya Purana refers to a battle between gods and demons. In the battle, Indra, the King of Devtas lost his kingdom to Vritra, the Asura demon. At that time, Sachi, Indra’s wife at the behest of Guru Brihaspati took a thread, charged it with mantras or sacred verses and tied it on Indra’s hand to ensure his victory. Through the strength of this thread, Indra is said to have conquered his enemies.
It is believed that during the Rajasuya yagya Lord Krishna was left with a bleeding finger. Draupadi, the wife of the Pandavas, had torn a strip of silk off her sari and tied it around Krishna's wrist to stop the flow of blood. Touched by her act of compassion, Lord Krishna had declared himself bound to her. He also promised to repay the debt and spent the next 25 years of his life doing just that. Though the daughter of a powerful monarch, sister to a legendary warrior, and wife to five powerful Pandavas, Krishna remained the only man Draupati could ever truly depend on.
During the Middle Ages, if a woman tied a Rakhi on the hand of any man, then it became imperative for him, as his religious duty, to protect the honour of that woman even by risking his life.

Breaking the wall of denial
Dr. Babu Suseelan
The only thing permanent in Life is mortality. Upon realizing that death is inevitable people typically respond in one of the two completely different ways. One common response is “I am going to do something, so I’d better get moving”. Few others respond “If I am going to die, what is the use of doing anything?”
Several Hindu friends have asked “Why you worry about coercive religious conversion, Islamic terrorism, subversive activities of Missionaries, psychological warfare of phony secularists, and media manipulation: These agents behind these acts are mortals and will die one day”. Such reaction and attitude towards mortality often leads to denial, apathy, indifference, inaction and tolerance for intolerance. Under the current Hindu social turmoil, such cognitive structure needs rational analysis.
For People who respond positively on death and dying and respond actively, life has value despite the fact that death is inevitable. They make positive contributions to life and make life worthwhile. We all face disease, hardship, social and personal crisis and death. We all know that our good life, tide and time will not last. We know we have limited time on this planet. I am reminded of two bumper stickers on the car of a woman and a professor. It reads “So many men, so little time”, “so many books, and so little time”.
The inevitability of death should not preclude us from doing what is required. The awareness of death should not act as a negative motivation for inaction, denial, apathy and indifference. The awareness of death and the multitude of crisis we face must heighten our awareness of the values of time we have available to identify and correct problems we face. Our life is sacred and too valuable to sit idle and become passive.
There are many who are in deep denial, pessimistic and apathetic view that there is no meaning in doing anything to eradicate evil and face head on destructive practices of deviant and miscreant agents hostile to our life. “We are all going to die, so what is the use of anything?” For them, “Life is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifies nothing” (Macbeth 5.5. Shakespeare). For those people who are in deep denial, or the pessimists, everything is meaninglessness.
Such pessimistic social cognition of Hindus requires complex and multidisciplinary analysis and explicit discourse. Such negative behavior and indifference presuppose a sophisticated philosophy and psychology supporting such social cognition. Our phony secular politicians, alienated academicians, media and other elites play an important role in sustaining such pessimism, indifference, denial and cognitive disorder. They are the ones who controls or have access to many types of public discourse and maintaining denial, and persuasively formulating pessimistic philosophy on life.
How do we confront those Hindus who say mortality makes life meaningless and it is worthless fighting social oppression, discrimination and deceptive religious conversion and jihadi terrorism? One secular political leader once asked me “Why should you judge things as good or bad, positive or negative?” Such questions are meaningless. If we are indifferent and hide behind a thick wall of denial and ignore evil around us, then no values would be possible. This is part of face-keeping or positive self-presentation of bogus politicians and these are part of the overall strategy of their oppression management and denial system. They want to avoid hard realities of our life and avoid negative evaluation of oppressive agents.
Denial, escapism and apathy come in many forms, each with its own cognitive, emotional, social, political and social functions. Such bogus secular politicians are damned scared and refuse to face the hard challenges facing our society and by hiding behind the wall of denial, they want to insulate themselves as best they can from the social messes created by our hostile elements. The continued pattern of such thinking leads to –destructive behaviors including denial, apathy, indifference and passivism. Then the thinking-errors of such bogus leaders and phony secularists become thinking patterns and the stage is set of continual, habitual destructive behavior of Jihadis and subversive agents.
It has been a common knowledge that Indian secular politicians relinquish their loyalty to reality and hide behind a thick wall of denial. The chronic denial syndrome, apathy, indifference and pessimism disguised by self-destructive behavior are quite similar to Alcoholism except the phony politicians ruin themselves not by drinking but by their inexpedient conduct. Their perverse personality and approval addiction appear in their decision making and policy formulation hostile to Hindus. Their hidden goal is to insult, demean, discriminate and oppress the majority Hindus who keep India together as a nation. As a result, the majority Hindus often fall victims to successive disasters, with an uncanny, sometimes almost incredible regularity.
Hindus need to unite, regain strength, and break the thick wall of denial and force phony secular addicts recover from appeasement addiction and lend an effective hand to Hindu organizations fighting the malignancy of destructive impulse and faulty thought system of the psychopath politicians. The state-of-mind of passive Hindus today cant’ seems to understand the seriousness of crisis that engulfs them. As a result, the common approaches and measures to break the wall of denial are weak, meek or wrong. Most are definitely based on unimaginative thinking and psychological fantasy.
To break the thick wall of denial, apathy, and cognitive disorder, we need strong, effective strategies and action plan more in tune with the current realities. We need more down-to-earth, more able to create positive trends to understand the nature of our disorder and the mindset of our tormentors.
Only fighting Hindus can re-claim our liberty, our values, spiritual tradition, our community and the nation. And we need to protect our religion, tradition, our society and the nation from the evil doers. Recently Hindus have achieved so much and our distracters have been defeated. That apparently is not enough. The powerful political establishment wants Hindus to continue in their passivity, denial, apathy and indifference so the barbarians can continue their onslaught on Hindus.
The only way to improve our situation and break the wall of denial is to admit the reality and to outsmart these deviant barbarians. We should remember that cultural progress is possible only if we can fight against horrors that threaten our existence. With our commitment, conviction and determination to confront the wall of denial, a reenergized Hindus can and will challenge the oppressors whenever and wherever they are found. Then our life will be worth living. The moral has to be that we should not be trapped and paralyzed in the negative philosophy of life or passivism. Hindus can both survive and thrive. We need true freedom and peace. And true peace and freedom comes from a prolonged struggle without any displays of weakness. This is where we must pick up once again and challenge pessimism and denial.
Each and every Hindu must join together and support assertive Hindu organizations and any amount of support one can provide to such organizations will provide satisfactory solution to our problems. And then, after one has done it, we can overcome our denial to face facts.
