Who is fool ? All or none - really !

Speaking the truth, there are no fools in the world or all of us are fools in one or the other way! This might seem ridiculous. But it is cent-per-cent true.

Depending on the situation some persons might seem to be fools but, they are not complete fools to the core and on the other hand those we look in lime light as ‘genius’ in fact might be fools in one or the other way.

For example, Albert Einstein, the famous scientist is considered to be a genius all over the world but, if Einstein is asked to play cricket he would come out as an ‘idiot’ but, Sachin Tendulkar – the famous Indian cricketer, an idiot at science can do well at ‘cricket’. So, in a particular domain one might seem to be an ‘idiot’ but, NOT all the instances or domains.

Each person has their own mental strengths and weakness and the concept of ‘Fool’ depends on this. If in one angle “A” is a fool - in another angle “A” will be a brilliant. So, there are no absolute ‘fools’ in the world and consequently there are no ‘absolute’ ‘intelligent’ too.

Speaking on this point Albert Einstein stated that: “all of us are equally intelligent and equally foolish before the god”. All of us have many ‘dark’ and ‘white’ spots corresponding to our ‘foolishness’ and ‘intelligence’ so, before ‘god’ the almightily who is all pure [absolute intelligence] – each of us will have our won ‘blemishes’ or the dark spots. Hence, all of us are equals before the ‘god’.

But at the same time it is true that, some people lack the average intelligence in certain domains or angles and these are often referred to as ‘fools’. But, the so called fools in fact have certain superior-capacity in some other field or domain which the average person doesn’t have. For example if a person is blind, her capacity of hearing will be more pronounced against the average person.

So, if nature keeps ‘deficiency’ in one angle then in other angle it keeps some kind of ‘abundance’ as well generally; this is an inbuilt law of the universe.

One Hindu scripture points out that: ‘there is no person on the Earth who is useless and the only thing is that we are unable to use that person in the proper way’.

How brilliant a person might be, he or she is bound to have ‘dark’ spots in them but, generally in the light of their ‘positivity’ their ‘darkness’ goes unnoticed, that’s all. Parallel to this, even the so called ‘idiots’ has some positive trait or skill and the only thing is that we fail to see their ‘brilliant’ side; so this is simply the problem of the onlooker and NOT the subject concerned. If I fail to understand ‘relativity theory’ would it become ‘mere stupidity’?

So, if a person appears to be a ‘fool’ in one angle instead of ‘suffering’ due to that – the wise way is to search for the ‘positive’ side and to develop it further. Then no one would look at the ‘dark’ side but, would be delighted to see only the ‘bright’ side of the being.
