Most of us come face this statement at least once ---"Sharma Ji ka beta Engineer bna hai,vo bhi IIT se .Uska package 20 lakh hai.Main bhi apne bete ko IIT mein dekhna chaahta" .The scenario may vary,the name may change from Sharma to Verma or anyone else but the crux remains same .We are living in a society of morally & emotionally uneducated people ,where everyone is adviced to do something or the other irrespective of what we want .If I tell my mother that love marriage is more successful as we are aware of or life partner .She has one answer ---"Tum Abhi badhe ni hue ho.Apni marzi se shaadi krne vaalon ki life barbaad ho jaati "etc etc.I am the younger sibling so I am offered free advice for everything ."Beta tu padh le ,beta aaj padh lo,40 k hokar aish hi aish kroge,beta kaayde se hug le(pun intended) ,beta ye ,beta vo." When I interacted with my fellow students ,I found it was a situation which everyone faces.Every elder person advices the younger person .Its like a free advice offered to everyone .This is what I term as "Conventional Wisdom" , a wisdom as per the conventions.As I am writing this blog ,my mum is yelling at me "Padhai vagarah krta ni ,saare din phone p lga rehta(Practical example of Conventional wisdom )"So I will stop typing ,.........Maa main jaa RHA nahaane....
