As someone said once: Anger permeates the room. When you walk in with anger, everyone feels it. Lose the anger and you may win the part.-- Yes We all have Art and a Life. And a desire to share.
It is startling to realize how much ferocious anger we could harbor. The artist wishing and supposing herself/himself to be peaceable, is rocked by anger and that anger surprises. She/He thought she/he might write about love, but what pours out onto the page is pure vitriol.
She/he thought of expressing philosophically and what appears on the page are torrents of fury.
No, the artist is not immune to chronic, even disabling anger: but while she/he cannot avoid it, she can strive...to counterbalance it by really and truly loving those around her/him.
As good as the reasons for anger and hatred may be--as many injuries that we may have received and as many dissappointments as we've may experienced, I understand that anger is a pestilence and a blight on my being. I will not befriend anger nor will I become a hating creature.
Art, is here to stay. May you all enjoy a healthy and creative day. Ashok Nayak

It is not a single case with MF Hussain or Chandramohan.
1. Attack on Mammootty. Indian Film Star Mammootty said DYFI's (Democratic Youth Federation of India -- India's biggest Youth Federation) meeting in Chennai that, If DYFI is strong in Gujarat, the Gujarat Carnage could not have been happened. Sangh Parivar starts to attack him and his pictures.
2. Attack on Yesudas. Yesudas is a world famous singer and he served his god-gifted sound for last 60 years to all the gods and religions like Guruvayurappan (Krishna), Christ, Sabarimala Ayyappan, etc. He declared that he has no religion except the man. He regularly goes to Mookambika and he does not have any restrictions to enter the temple or sing about god. Sangh Parivar does not allow a non-Hindu to enter Temples, even then the Dewaswam Board is ready. We have to understand Shehnai maestro Ustad Bismillah Khan, the Bharat Ratna awardee was the star performer in Varanasi Temple in festivals in every year.
3. Attack on Parzania, Fana, Water like pictures;
It is a daily process. The Sangh Parivar crosses all the limits. We have to condemn and obstruct it. Also we have to make a strong secular foundation.
Take the pledge, we will not allow a communal violence here which occurred after the India-Pakistan partition.
