Chelakara R Vishwanathan, I have included Ten Commandments today as you would have liked it. I discovered I had already written a post about it.
The Ten Commandments
The Ten Commandments, as a film needs no introduction. Released in 1956, the visual grandeur and appeal of Ten Commandments is incomparable. This dramatized version has just the perfect drama that makes for compelling viewing.
I find the commandments, universal and timelessly relevant. It resonates the philosophy of most of the religions of the world. Monotheism, a formless God, contemplation and the good sense to control one's senses. The commandments is not only a reflection of the wisdom of the universe but also an expectation from its travelers. Self-Regulation, may be the key to happiness.
The commandments may also reiterate the power of a creation and the creative force, that is omniscient, omnipresent and ubiquitous. The God has probably not promised any divine intervention. The ordinary mortal may have to lead his or her life, with the Commandments as a guiding principle. Contemplation, prayers, a disciplined, self-regulated life with a good sense to control over one's senses, may be the only hope for one's salvation.
