Akash Mitra Analysis

Superior Essays
Fourteen eons ago, in the dominion of Mahismati, every human was supervised by its gods or goddesses, and portrayed the most idyllic mankind; but amidst the many gods materialized a god with the most exquisite virtues of them all. His inner beauty and his sagacious mind provoked the most despondent spirits. Akash Mitra, the god of morality, was picturesque and quintessential, both physically and lustfully. He existed as a purist, as he himself knew that, but plumly, he was a shoddy one. Even the most exemplary purists make some blunders, but till this hapless day, he had made no omission, laying a hurdle in his communal correlation with the other gods and goddesses. No blunder for him in his undivided life? Would that endure for his unmarred life? He was an altruist, …show more content…
“Not at all! Everyone understands mistakes can be made by anyone and that mistakes help us learn. They are essential to growth and development in our natures. After all, no one is perfect. And as for perfection, it can be perfected even with mistakes!”, he explained. “REALLY?” “Yes, indeed, and me being the god of improvement, I want you to understand the only real mistake is one you don’t learn from, and I know you will learn a lot from this mistake of yours. In other words, this mistake was just a way for you to grow and improve! Isn’t that exciting now that you think about it”, he asked with a mild and gentle tone. “I guess so! Will it get better with time?”, he asked. “Listen to me, Akash. If light is a wave lapping against us; an ocean oscillating through illumination and shadow, then time is the tide, and it pulls a sea of light onto the shore, engulfing and flooding it. Then light recedes, taking with it what was left too near waves, and leaves the rest in darkness. In the same way, with time your mistakes will be forgotten, but what you learned from them will live on”, he said

    The Tale of the Eloquent Peasant deeply treads on the concept of Ma’at – the Egyptian concept of truth, order, and justice personified by the goddess Ma’at. The concept of Ma’at is critical to Egyptian society for two primary reasons – it further serves to strengthen the rule of the king and provides guidance for everyday Egyptians and, to a lesser extent, the pharaohs, on how to behave properly to achieve order and cosmic harmony. Therefore, the story of the peasant serves a twofold purpose – as a moral tale which advocates for and ultimately achieves societal harmony and as a religious appeal to the pharaoh’s authority. The Story of Sinuhe concerns religion to a significantly higher degree but is distinct in its subtlety. While offering similar praise to the king for his ultimate mercy, the more critical aspect of the story involves that of divine providence and its connection to the Egyptian pharaoh.…

    “Within the first 100 years of the Europeans landing in the Americas, nine-tenths of the natives died out because of diseases the Europeans brought with them, such as smallpox and the plague. Corn, chocolate, and hemp were some goods that the Europeans got from the Americas. Most Spanish men were obsessed with three things: Gold, God, and Glory. To obtain these things, they had to go to the Americas. Hernan Cortes, a Spaniard, heard about El Dorado and went to Mexico in 1519 to find it.…

    The concept of perfection is something that cannot be reached or can be achieved because if you have nothing to redeem then you have nothing to gain. Just as a caterpillar is to a butterfly, redemption is to success. Although they may seem like opposites, they actually are very much alike because you need one to have the other. One must recognize a fault that they have suffered and learn from it to better one’s self and eventually teach it to others. The idea of redemption through failure because perfection will not help one’s worth is evident in Sir Gawain and The Green Knight by Simon Armitage and in modern day society.…

    What They Never Told You About Mistakes Is perfection really obtainable? Can we reach this abstraction without first falling and lending ourselves into the hands of failure? Thomas takes the controversial, misinterpreted concept of mistakes and parallels it with a hope so empowering that it yields progress. Most people tend to correlate mistakes with falling short and the incapability to achieve success on a level that offers satisfaction. However, Thomas rightfully and sufficiently sheds mistakes under the same positively-connotative words such as “lucky” and “hope.”…
