"All things appear and disappear because of the concurrence of causes and conditions. Nothing ever exists entirely alone; everything is in relation to everything else." Buddha
Please take a moment and think if something happenned to your loved one, what would you do, where would you go? In the Western world, there are many facilities and products, but in courttries like India, where as soon as a child is born that is disfigured, or has a disability, instead of trying to save that child's life, the child is killed, while most of the time, the mother is unaware of this. She is told that the it was a stillborn. In India, the women and girls are taught from an early age to be submissive, to be tolerant, to always keep things inside, even if your husband tortures you, you are not to tell anyone about this, in short, the male has all of the freedom, but there are many restrictions on women. Everyday, there are many women burned by either the husband or the in-laws, if they are lucky enough to have someone save their lives, the emotional and mental trauma, alongwith the disfiguration, is too much for the woman to bear, and ultimately, she ends up committing suicide. In today's progressive world, only the wealthy and strong women, are now learning to stand up for themselves, while the middle-class and under, suffer silently.
All of these circumstances, lead to some form of disability or other. If we, in the Western world, who are educated and find these circumstances abhorring, do not step up and lend a helping hand to these unfortunate people, who will? There are so many reasons why we should have a Rehabilitation Facility in India for People with Disabilities. Someone has to start the process now. I have started this process, and I am hopeful that the pull of humanity will definitely win.
Therefore, I invite you to please VOTE for this humanitarian project, so that we can take CONCRETE ACTION. Please Be A Miracle In The Lives Of People With Disabilities In India. Thank you.
In the Spirit of Humanity and Technology/Change,
