Dear member, You are very right. In the world we live in, unfortunately, we do not have persons of sufficient stature and moral authority who can restrain and change errant behavioural tendencies among the young and misguided in life --- as Sri Lakshmana was able to do with Sri Rama in the Ramayana. If we did, the world would be such a less violent place to live in. I'm glad that you liked the posting and it I'm very happy to hear you say that it made you and your friends sit up and think. Our scriptures like the Ramayana are not merely meant to be venerated as "holy book". They are meant really to make us contemplate and search ("dharmaa and brahma vichaara"). If we do not recognize that fact, then it's really a waste of time and we'd have lost a life-time of opportunity to learn from life and grow wise.
