Rapes in India - What can we do to prevent it?

First of all, with a cool and calm mind, let's ask ourselves. Why a person turns into a rapist? There is something that takes over - The power of lust. Lust makes a person blind. He becomes so blind that he doesn't even think. Doesn't even care what could be the outcome of such an heinous crime. The only thing that goes on in his mind is, how can I quench the thirst of my lust.

People who are usually discontented with their life, dis-satisfied, unhappy (irrespective whether they are rich or poor), are most likely to be caught under the spell of lust. They don't have happiness in life and hence start looking for happiness in wrong places.

This way if you think, you will realize that the rapist is actually the victim! He is a puppet of lust. Only when the wicked act is done does he realize what did he do! And his life is ruined now. Few people don't feel anything (even after the crime). They are in a real sorry state. Completely trapped by lust.

So, what generally happens? There is a merry go round that happens. Have you observed? Someone rapes someone > We all are angry > we come on street and protest > victim is recovering in a hospital > rapists are arrested by police > Case goes ON and ON > In the mean while there is another rape that has happened!

How can we root out this crime from the very core?
Not many have thought about this. But in India, porn is available freely and effortlessly! One can easily go on the internet and download free porn. With smart phones becoming cheaper, majority of people can now afford smart phones. The downloading/viewing/sharing of such clips/movies have thus become very easy. Few might say - Is it wrong to watch porn?
Yes it is! If movies like Bhaag Milkha Bhaag can encourage you to run/participate in races, why can't porn movies influence/encourage you to make you do the act in real?!

Unfortunately, in India - watching or possessing pornographic materials is legal.
What can be done?
1) The least Indian Govt. can do is ban all the porn sites or sites that make porn available
If that can't be done, then atleast ban the Free Porn available.
If that can't be done, make 'watching porn' Illegal in India. Give the power to cyber police to take severe action who visit porn sites or download/upload porn.

2) Meditation: First thing one should learn is to have a command over one's mind. That is only possible with meditation. Becoming aware of one's emotions(positive and negative), realizing that true happiness can be found only within. A feeling of contentment can be realized only through meditation. A sense of satisfaction comes in. Sudarshan Kriya has proved to be useful too. Each and every person should be introduced to Meditation and Sudarshan Kriya.


What do I want to convey from this post:
I don't say that - Banning porn will completely stop rapes.
I say that - Banning porn will definitely act as a nail on the coffin to prevent rapes.

I don't say that - All rapists are the ones who have watched porn atleast once.
I do say that - somewhere it does encourage the porn watcher to do the act in real.

I don't say - we spare all the rapists, knowing that they are victims of lust.
I do say that - the strategy of merry go round is not working and we need to come up with solutions to prevent rapes than just show anger once the crime is committed.

I don't say that - Banning Porn is the only solution
I do say that - I invite suggestions from YOU to tackle this issue. What else can be done to prevent rapes in India? Have some ideas? PLEASE SHARE

I DO SAY THAT - If each and every person in India starts meditating, the crime rate can be brought down drastically!
