LOOK FOR ALL ASPECTS

This incident took place in my childhood (name changed)

There was Varun who was best child and friend of all…………

One day some of his friends came to see him they saw Varun’s mother Maya aunty on the ground floor; she was busy with her work. As Varun was not there, so they asked her where is Varun aunty? ……….. She replied “He is upstairs”.

The house was of three floors the children (I mean his friends) rushed up to the third floor i.e., the top floor. There they did not find Varun’s but met his father reading newspaper and as varun was not seen there they asked uncle where is Varun ?..............

Uncle replied Downstairs!

The children were puzzled; they searched all the floors and garden, out house and found Varun at 2^nd floor in his grandfather room. They all were very happy to see him even they gathered around Varun and related the incident to him. They said Varun we are confused about one thing

On ground floor your mother said you’re upstairs and on top floor your father said you were downstairs ………….. How can both statements be right and at last we found you on second floor? In the mean time all this was heard by Varun’s grand father,

So when grandfather heard whole story he asked all the kids to come near him as he will explain ……….

Then showing the picture of a crow grandfather said which color is this and all at once including Varun replied in one voice black

But grand father said he can also see that crow is red and as well as white……..

No No No No …………. It is black shouted the children…….

So Varun grandfather said you all are right. The body of the crow is black but the crow is also red because of the color of its blood and white because of its bones.

In the same way Varun’s mother was at ground floor so she pointed up stairs and his father was completely on top floor so pointed downstairs both gave the correct statements from their respective stand points

After this incident I could make out every thing has a number of different aspect and to explore the truth we should look at it from different view points.

This is the means to unravel the truth.
