We all are humans. Biologically we are. I find "survival of the fittest" is very fundamental theory. However, this theory doesn't guarantee to generate a society full of love. We do not want a great human, we want great humanity. Love is the basis of stable humanity. Without love no society can survive longer. Look at the debacle of Romans. So far we have not witnessed peace. In last 5000 years we fought almost 15,000 times. That includes major recorded war. If you count war in homes that will be even more. That shows the amount of hatred spread ed in our society. We do only two things. Either we fight or we do preparation for the next fight - cold war. War or cold-war. That's what we have done so far.
As I said, we want great humanity not the great human. Remember our great human. Be it anyone. Due to them we fought a lot. I don't want to take their name. But know that so called great people are not always healthy for a better humanity. They create disparity out of their greatness. Great people might do some temporal benefit to the society. We must appreciate that. But then their greatness creates so much disparity that we start fighting. Because, there are many great man. They have many followers. Followers of two different great men are enemies. Which can cause war sometimes. And if war happens all the benefit done by great people are destroyed. People like good people. People do not like very very very good people. You will hate extraordinarily good people. Trust me. To justify this - person like Jesus was crucified, Socrates was poisoned. People threw stones at Buddha and Mahavira. If you can throw stones at Buddha, to whome will you love then? Trust me, people do not like extraordinarily good people. if you have some bad qualities people will like you. Because, then you become compatible with other rest of other people. Society always tries to maintain the state of equllibriam. Your extraordinary good qualities disturbs that equilibrium. People get frightened with that. But still if you want to inculcate extraordinary good qualities, then keep that for you only. Do not spread. Keep it with you. You might not know, there are many saints far much greater than known great saints. We know only those saints which are mentioned in the books. There are many other great saints also. They did not come forward. They never wanted to disturb the entropy of the society. So they did not came to society. We have no idea about them. It happend to Buddha also. After he got enlightened, he remained silent for many days. He never wanted to speak at public places. He wanted to keep the knowledge with him only. But later many gods persuaded him to speak. So He spoke. This applies in science also. That's why I say we do not need great human we need great humanity.
Secondly, no matter how great you are, there will be always some people to criticize you. That's due to survival of fittest. Therefore you should not raise your status far above than the average. Great people create huge deviation in the society. Although they teach love and non-disparity but unknowingly they create huge disparity.
Humanity is made up of average people. Normal people. But whenever a great person come that equilibrium is disturbed. So you'll find great war happens in the time of great great people. May be after they died. Because after they die, lots of minor sects are created. And they start fighting. Mind you, I am not criticizing great people. I am just looking their long-term effect on humanity.
We should cultivate love. Without love we will be fighting like ever. Least disparity and maximum love is the sign of healthy humanity.

Very true statement!
Hey Subh, indeed a very nice article written by you! I tell you after a long time I got chance to read such a gud and very true article. It is a matter of fact. However, I feel we are missing humanity in our siciety. Whatever the reason, these fundamentalists have lost their humanity. They create more gap btwn two religion, btwn rich and poor, btwn two countries etc. They talk about humanity and human rights but killing thousands of people for their own benifit.
rgds,
Rewa.
Yes.
We respect great people. We love them. But they should be aware of disparity they create out of their greatness (unkowingly). We couln't have much pleasant everlasting experiences with great people.
Our demand is a great humanity, not a great human.
One man cannot represent entire humanity no matter how great he/she is. Bucause the humanity is so diverse. Great men are just the expansion of individualism.
Rewa thanks for the comment. Keep visiting :)
The own benefit, you mentioned that's due to "survival of the fittest".
Everyone tries to protect their existence. To grow. To multiply. There is no harm in that. Since, there are so many religion, they do differ at some concepts in spite of having so much commonalities. 1% of conceptual difference can be more disastrous then 99% of commonalities. And it all happend due to synonyms. The most ufortunate thing happend is the misunderstanding of words. A given word can have more than one meanings - synonyms. I would say synonyms are the worst part of any literature. Different people can deduct different meaning of synonyms and then they will fight. That's what has happend. I think one word should have one and only one meaning. Do not confuse people. They are already too much confuse. Lol.
Fair enough?
