Height of Superstitious Believes

The above picture is taken in my office. Last 2 years I didn’t saw this idol (thristi bhommai) in our conference room. Couple of weeks before I saw it and was shocked. My office is in ICC tower, Pune. It’s a big building having numerous Multinational Companies(Deloitte, Cognizant etc.,) with people of different religion.


Is it necessary to have this kind of Idol in office where people of different religions work together?

The worse part is these Idols are not pictures of God but all evil pictures.
A company's growth directly depends on its vision, mission and values. Not with these idols. What is the purpose of having this kind of idols if a company doesn’t have any vision? (Good example: My own company)
In ancient Hindu books, Has there been any description about possession of these kind of idols. Then Who brought this superstitious belief?

See the above pictures. Few defence academy guys doing hindu rituals (ethanai periyaar vanthalum inthaa muttal makkala thirutha mudiyaathu) before practicing Pilot training. (Note: Lemon in the Helicopter tyre and the coconut in the student hand.)

Military is a place where one should not give importance to ones religious. Even in NCC, one should not keep thilak on head and there should not be any religious rituals. The people who should be a role model to all are depend on this kind of superstitious belief. A military jawan should lay of his/her life to protect this country. If every Jawans pray their God in boundary line, then there wouldnt be a Kashmir. Higher officials should not entertain this kind of behaviors in war front.

What should one do if we come across this kind of stupid behaviors?

Dear readers,
Thanks for reading the article. Please post your opinion.

Nanba i do agree with u... practising particular religion in common place is not required... not essential also...

but certain things are inseperable frm our ppl..

this kind of process are diversion of concentration frm their fear...

Becoz ppl need to boast their confidence this are te way... also if they face any loss someone needs to be there to blame... for our ppl God is the gud reason to blame....

if they win its becoz of their hard work if they loss its god's fault... goes on....

only few believe in destiny....

gud thought provoking post... keep ur gud work.. provoke our thoughts :D

keep rocking....
