"Think About Yourself " has been the new age Mantra....and though we come across splendid examples of this attitude each day...there would be hundreds of you ..ready to defy or contradict this belief......
This has shaken the very foundations of relationships.....Anger,anxiety,aspiration,frustration has taken over patience,love,selflessness and altruism. We very fondly remember the Rajesh Khanna of "Bavarchi", who resurrects a crumbling family and then vanishes into thin air after creating an atmosphere of love and acceptance.
"Be the Best", "Cut Throat Competition" ,"Glamour" - This has produced a pronounced effect on the psyche of the people in general....All they think is about themselves...and as far as the society is concerned ....20 mins of useless blabbering is all they can do about the system and the society......
And at the end..people tend to find solace in the new Age "Gurus", showing them the divine path of enlightenment..failing to understand that their hearts would be tranquil only if they start thinking less about themselves and more about others !!

I guess that happens when your expectations are not met. You get disappointed with people...people about whom you care and when you do not get the care back, you have no choice left but you take care of yourself. That's when "I" comes into the vanguard instead of "you" or "we".
Thats what the point is....when u care for a person expecting something in return..that is being called being self centred....I would call it a symbiotic relationship....Selflessness is when u do something jst for a humane cause...or without any expectations ....
