The Habit of Questioning: Discovering Reality Through Rational and Logical Thinking

To mark the National Scientific Temper Day and remember Dr Narender Dabholkar – a lead scientific temper campaigner who assassinated by religious fanatics – on his death anniversary, many citizen groups and NGOs organize the awareness campaigns to bust suprestitions and myths prevalent in society and awaken rationality as safeguards against irrationality, conditions, brainwash and blind following. People are encouraged to questioning and discovering truth.

Inspired Quintets

A mind that is both  keen and bright,
Seeks truth with all of its might.
With logic and care,
No guesses to share,
Researching, a rational delight.

A mind, in old chains tightly bound,
With fears and myths all around,
Can break brain-wash lie,
Reach for the sky,
With logic, true knowledge's found.

A mind that's free, and wants to know,
Questions why, true keeness may grow.
Blind faith's tight hold,
Rituals so old,
On science's path, we bravely go.

A mandate clear, the law does state,
Science, the compass, seals our fate.
For schools to lead,
Planting learning's seed,
All else is fluff, we can abate.
