My view on Metro Kissing Case

Recently a couple was seen kissing in Metro and somebody recorded their video and shared it on Social Media.
This started a discussion on show of obscenity in public spaces many spoke in support of them accepting it as normal while many criticised it.
This post of mine is an small effort to write my thoughts about it in dispassionate manner.
First I want to make it clear that I have no negative feelings for those two and I request others too to not shame or condemn them.
What they did was an expression of western influence which only seeks material pleasure,ignorance of their own roots,indifference towards societal and dharmic responsibility and duty.
Individual's behaviour cannot be in a way that directly or indirectly inspires others to do something wrong.
It is a cycle people get inspired by what others are doing and try to emulate that, it is a chain reaction process.
Individual is part of a big machine called Society and it cannot act which leads to destruction of the machine whose part it is.
It is an opportunity in my view to ponder on bigger question where our civilisation is heading.
Our country is land of Dharmic(धार्मिक) civilisation whose primary aim is to keep every soul on path of Dharma(धर्म) and enable their salvation(मोक्ष).
On this principle foundation every part of our life is designed in the framework of Sanatana civilisation(सनातन सभ्यता).
Decision of right or wrong,good and bad,acceptable and unacceptable,moral and immoral, justice and injustice should be based on principles of Dharma(धर्म) and Nyaya(न्याय) not on selfish motives,ignorance, likes and dislikes,whims and fancies of an individual or group of people.
Sanatana Dharma(सनातन धर्म) accepts Kama(काम) as one of the four primary goals(चतुर्विध पुरुषार्थ) and one of the six modifications(षडविकार) of mind.
It don't sees it in negative way until practiced in dharmic(धार्मिक) way.
We have huge amount of work on Kama(काम) in our Vedakosha(वेदकोश).
Whose primary aim to save people falling in the trap of wrong sexual practices and inspire them to practice it according to Dharma(धर्म).
Like all other things Kama(काम) is also of three types Sattvic(सात्विक),Rajsic(राजसिक) and Tamasic(तामसिक).
Sattvicform of Kama(सात्विक काम) is considered Yajna(यज्ञ) as it helps two souls getting free from debt of ancestors by contributing in cycle of life by giving birth to a child.
Rajasic(राजसिक काम) is for pleasure between husband and wife and is permissible but not praised highly.
Tamasic(तामसिक काम) is wrong sexual practices and they are considered sins.
Any form of Kama(काम) should be practiced in private and peaceful space even prostitutes do it behind closed doors.Animals too seek solitude to express their sexual feelings. We humans should definitely use wisdom for such expressions.It is an intimate exercise between two person and any kind of sexual expression in public space where people can experience it in any manner is not acceptable, we have enough stories related to it in our Granthas(ग्रन्थ) as it has potential to corrupt any mind in many different ways.
We need to think about why step by step wrong sexual traditions are getting space in our society and leading our civilisation on the path of destruction.
It also pains me when many try to give legitimacy to these things by giving various arguments and theories.
Condemning individuals will not bring any positive change only exploring,learning and practicing our own huge treasure of knowledge can lead to prosperity.
Ignorance can only be countered through knowledge not by anger or shaming.
A beautiful shloka(श्लोक) from Shri Soundarya Lahiri(श्रीसौन्दर्यलाहिरी) on Kamadeva(श्रीकामदेव).
धनुः पौष्पं मौर्वी मधुकरमयी पञ्च विशिखाः
वसन्तः सामन्तो मलयमरुदायोधनरथः ।
तथाप्येकः सर्वं हिमगिरिसुते कामपि कृपाम्
अपाङ्गात्ते लब्ध्वा जगदिद-मनङ्गो विजयते ॥ ६॥ सौन्दर्यलाहिरी
Oh ,daughter of the mountain of Himalaya
With a bow made of flowers,
Bow string made of honey bees,
Five arrows made of only tender flowers,
With spring as his minister,
And riding on the chariot of breeze from Malaya mountains
The god of love who does not have a body,
Gets the sideways glance of your holy eyes,
And is able to win all the world alone
