Rasili Kahaniyan: The Story told through advertisements Mahatmaji ka Chamatkar
Mera janm ek dhani parivar mein hua. Apne pita ka ladla putra hone ke kaaran main dhan aur vyasan mein ghira rehta tha, lekin phir bhi main sukhi nahi tha. Kusangat mein padkar mujhe gupt rog ho gaye (8). Pehle to ek do saal maine lok-laaj ke bhay se apna bhed chhipaye rakha parantu rog ne bhayanak soorat ikhtiyar kar li. Ab main ghabra utha, sansaar mein chaaro aur andhera maaloom hone laga, tab meri aankhein khuli. Ilaaj shuru kiya, bade-bade doctoron, hakimon, vaidyon ki fees roop mein rupiye aur dawaiyon ke kharidne mein pani ki tarah rupya behne laga, phir bhi main nirash hi raha. Ab main ghabra utha aur charon taraf se andhkaar dikhlai dene laga aur lagne laga ki is dukhmay jeevan se to mar jana behtar hai… Ek mahatmaji ek gaanv mein eent par raam hue the, main bhi saubhagya se aur logon ke sath unke darshan karne gaya… Daivi shakti se mere dukhi jeevan ke pichhle adhyay unke hridayay pat par khinch gaye aur meri aankhon ne hridyay ka sara bhed apne aap us mahaan purush par prakat kar diya...

(Translation: Miracle of the Saint. I was born in a wealthy family. Being loved by my father, I was surrounded by wealth and indulged in merriment but still I was not happy and satisfied. I got into bad company due to which I acquired sexually transmitted diseases. Initially, due to fear of social ostracisation I kept it under wraps

As I got up from bed, I thought of how I should spend my last day here with my family. I then decided to head downstairs and I could immediately overhear loud conversations and then I saw my brothers and sisters as they prepare the table and gather around the table. As I sat down at the corner of the table, we started recalling our childhood memories.…

    The articles presented by both Kristof and Kaleem explore the importance of the humanities, and how it can be a positive influence on the development of critical thought, intellect, and emotional intelligence. The combination of these factors contributes, in my opinion, to a more well-rounded (spiritually, emotionally, intellectually) individual. Nicholas Kristof's article explores, compares, and contrasts how the liberal arts and humanities are a skill that is just as necessary, and just as relevant, as any level of technical acumen. He suggests that the humanities are more than just superfluous knowledge, but a conduit or pathway to soul enrichment. I agree with Kristof's assertions that liberal arts "equip students with communications…

    I am deeply sorry, mom, that I always got angry with you in public. Whenever you spoke, I constantly found myself looking around, seeing people staring and snickering, like they always do. I am deeply sorry, mom, that I wasn't by your side when you came to my elementary school spring fling, and you asked the hot dog vendor to give you only the bread because they didn't understand you being a vegetarian. Your accent is thick, and I'm deeply sorry that I, your own blood, made you feel like an outsider. I was embarrassed.…

By using contrasting imagery, Lahiri shows the cultural barriers that stem from her characters feeling the need to choose their own traditional values and beliefs or those of a new culture.

    “The melancholy of those black days has left so long a shadow that it darkens the path of years that have since gone by. These sad memories rise above those of smoothly grinding school days.” This quotation depicts the emotions of many young Native American students that attended the Carlisle Indian Industrial School. The infamous boarding school was opened in 1880, to assimilate the Native people of the “white” country that was once theirs. Carlisle had a prodigious significance in the depreciation of the Native American culture.…

    In the “Quit India” speech Gandhi uses an arrangement of ethos, pathos, and logos to create deep features in his speech. Through the use of ethos, pathos and logos Gandhi was able to portray himself as a religious, peaceful man throughout his speech. He was able to create ethos through repetition and religious undertones. Gandhi stated at the beginning of his speech, “God has vouchsafed to me a priceless gift in the weapon of Ahisma… God will not forgive me and I shall be judged unworthy of the great gift” (Gandhi, 1). Gandhi used religious connotations to appeal to the common beliefs of the India population.…

    “Main ek Hindustani hun aur main janta hun ki ek Hindustani larki ki izzat kya hoti hai” a dialogue by Raj in the movie reflects how valuable the honour of a girl is in the Indian culture. Raj is seen carrying this idea of Indianess, being an NRI, forward with him. All these scenes in the movie show the diasporic Indianess, which further suggest that diaspora is not a threat to Indian values and its culture. Indian values are shown to be deeply rooted in the diaspora which cannot be destroyed by western…
