Women March and life-cycle

Balanced women March and life-cycle

The balance lies at the core of the universe. Without balance whole universe may not stand even a second. Big planets, huge stars, immeasurable galaxies, families of planets and stars, all are swimming in the ocean of balance. At Earth too, life exists due to the balance.

The balance lies in the incomputable food supply chain. Such as, Blue Whale eats thousands of tiny living organisms. If it would not eat them, those tiny organisms may cause an overabundance, resultantly, the whole food supply chain of the ocean will be destroyed.

Similarly, this balance lies amid millions of species living in the earth. Carnivorous, herbivorous and omnivorous exist together. One extinction certainly would result in the other one's extinction. Airy-birds, aquatic-animals, terrestrial-species all are sin-qua-non for each other.

Likewise, human-life too stands on balance. Male and female are two sides of a scale. To weight something at scale, we place the fixed weights at one pan of the scale and the unknown mass of weight on the other. Then we balance.

Nature too balances life on scale through male and female. When God creates Adam, Adam felt anxious and remained restless—even in Jannah—until the life-scale was not get balanced by the creation of Eve. Moreover, the expulsion of Adam and Eve from Jannah was not more painful than the separation between them on Earth. Both cries a lot and seek forgiveness due to the separation amid them.   

Women March, also, is incomplete without the other inseparable element of the life-scale: the Male.

No doubt, women have been deprived of their rights. From cradle to the grave they live in pitiable conditions. By cradle means, their inherited rights bestowed by nature: specifically their inheritance. Brothers, who are guardians of sisters, with impunity and cunningly firstly took into possession of the females’ inherited property as a guardian, then deprived them permanently. Thousands of cases are pending adjudication in the courts of law in this regard only.

At the stage youthfulness, they are deprived of firstly university-life; secondly, willful marriage; thirdly, of all kinds of liberties at in-laws-house; fourthly, by deeming to be natural-servant of kids and in-laws; and so on. All are against the Sharia and Constitution. All are against humanity and democracy. All are against civilization and liberty.  

However, this is one side of the life-scale. What about the other side of the life-scale? Whether these deprivations are with the females only? Have the males are enjoying all of the fundamental human rights with liberty and without any hindrance. Does the male not deprived of their rights? Indeed, they are too victims. They too have no right to choose their life-partners. They too are being killed in the name honor and rubbish caste-system. Hence, both are oppressed at their place. Both are part and parcel of life-cycle.

The life-cycle has two wheels: one male and one female. The chain is bounded by at front side by chain-ring and backside with rear cogs. The peddles are being pushed by nature. The rear wheel is the female who is the real force in running the life-cycle. The front wheel is the male who has to face all odds and obstacles and he is supposed to make way for the rear wheel so that it may not get entangled with any potholes on the road.

As per Newton’s first law of motion: “every object persists in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless it is compelled to change that straight by force impressed on it”. In the life-cycle, the chain is nature. It is the force of God. The chain is designed in such a manner that unless the rear wheel continues its push and provides the force the front wheel will face and pass through all of the potholes on road. This cycle will keep on moving unless some external force or internal mechanics halt its motion or try to change its state.

Hence, Women’s March without taking Male on board is considered to be a halt on the life-cycle and the balance of nature. Women's rights are part and parcel of men’s rights. Both rights are each other’s rights. One’s right is the liability of the other. One may not have the right if the other one would not have its own.

What should have been done is that the Males must march alongside Females and raise voice for them. They are the front wheels. They are supposed to protect and make way for the rear wheel. And Females too should not attempt to disturb the balance of the nature and mechanics of the life-cycle.

In a nutshell, there no competition between the two wheels of life-cycle. There no superiority and inferiority concept amid these two wheels. Nature creates a balance between them. Both must fight for each other. As one wheel alone could not survive on the road filled with a lot of potholes, jumps, and obstacles. Lastly, front-wheel (male) must always make the way for the rear-wheel (female) and the rear-wheel (female) must always back up and push the front wheel (male) to move forward by having hands in hands together through the chain of nature (balance).
