بیشتر مطالب این بلاگ درباره تاریخ، میراث فرهنگی، زبان، هنر و فرهنگ ایران است. توجه کنید که تا قبل از سال ۱۳۱۳ نام بین‌المللی کشور ایران Persia بود و کلمه ایران در زبانهای دیگر بکار نمی‌رفت. با ذکر این نکته مشخص می‌شود که کلمه Persian نشان‌دهنده ملیت ایرانی است و نه قومیت پارس (فارس). معادل انگلیسی قومیت پارس، Pars یا Fars است. در ترجمه پارسی به انگلیسی، ایران Persia، ایرانی Persian، و زبان پارسی Persian language ترجمه می‌شود. برای اطلاعات بیشتر مطالب این بلاگ به هر دو زبان را بخوانید.

کار از کجا خراب شد؟
برنارد لوئیس یک کتاب داره به اسم «کار از کجا خراب شد؟» که سعی میکنه به این سؤال جواب بده که چرا در سده اخیر منطقه خاور میانه با اینهمه مشکل روبره شده در صورتی که در هزاره قبل این منطقه از دنیا مهد علم و تجارت بوده. من نمیدونم واقعا تا چه حد میشه به این سؤال جواب داد و حتی وقتی که جوابی پیدا کردیم تا چه حد به راه حل نزدیک شدیم. ولی کلا از طرح این مسئله خوشم میاد و خیلی وقتها با دوستانم که هستم در این مورد صحبت میکنیم البته بیشتر در مورد ایران نه در مورد کل خاور میانه.
پریروز با دوستم امیر در اینباره صحبت میکردم. صحبت این بود که این مسئله خیلی پیچیده است و نمیشه در یک کلمه گفت که مشکل کجاست یا از کجا شروع شده. در اغلب اوقات هم به همون مشکل معروف «مرغ و تخم مرغ» میرسیم که مثلا نمیتونیم بگیم آیا مشکلات فرهنگی باعث مشکلات سیاسی شدن یا برعکس. ولی امیر حرف قشنگی زد. گفت که: «قسمت اعظم مشکلات از اینجا ناشی میشه که متاسفانه در فرهنگ جاری کشور، ما به همدیگه احترام نمیگذاریم!» دیدم که بد نمیگه. این احترام نگذاشتن در همه زمینه ها هست. از رانندگی گرفته تا لباس پوشیدن، راه رفتن، فکر کردن، نوشتن، قرار گذاشتن، و هر چیزی که فکرش رو بکنید.......
روز بعد یه مهمونی دعوت داشتیم و یکی از افرادی که باهاش صحبت میکردیم دو تا مطلب جالب گفت. یکی اینکه راحت طلبی اکثریت ما باعث شکست ما میشه. مثلا وقتی که دکتر مصدق در گیر و دار ملی کردن صنعت نفت بود، به واسطه سیاست های دولت انگلیس ایران تحت فشار اقتصادی قرار گرفت و (شاید) یکی از مسائلی که باعث شد مردم پشت مصدق را خالی کنند همین بود. نکته دومی که گفت این بود که ما چطور باید به این نقطات ضعف خودمون واقف بشیم. میگفت که مثلا وقتی فیلم «مارمولک» ساخته میشه، مردم خیلی استقبال میکنند و خوششون میاد ولی چه فایده. همه اون چیزهائی که توی فیلم نشون میده واضح و مبرهنه. فیلم خوب اونه که نقاط ضعف ما رو نشونمون بده که وقتی شب رفتیم خونه فکرمون به کار بیفته که «راستی! اینجوریه!!! چکار کنیم؟؟» و وقتی که شروع به فکر کردن کردیم راه حل هم کم کم پیدا میشه.
این حرف را بابای من هم همیشه میزنند. مثلا توی روضه ها چه فایده که همیشه بگیم به‌به و چه‌چه چه مردم خوبی داریم، چه مملکت خوبی داریم. باید بگیم کجاها خرابه تا بهش فکر کنیم و کم کم درستش کنیم.......

It seems that we are looking for change to better but still we do not know how.
In my idea, if some thing should change to better first you have to know with which part of that thing you are not satisfied. If you want to find out which part needs changes you have to know that thing very well. Suppose that thing named culture, and you are not satisfay with some part of that, then you have to know this culture very well. If you hav eenough information and knowladge about that culture then you would understand which part needs change.
So by this short explanation you might get some ideas that what is the subject of this text. I am going to talk about finding out the weakest part of our culture. If we look back to all problems that are in our socitey might you say " WHY NO BODY RESPECT "
The word 'RESPECT' in general is very complicated, but do not confuse doing RESPECT is so easy that when you start to do it you will get surprised. The first step is starting from ourselves. What does it mean "respect ourselves"? Very good Question. By having one step back and have a glance on our doing that we have done in past (long past or short past) might you find out that how we did not respect ourselves. Yes we did not. Do you remember last time that you made a decision? Try to remember one of those PLANS and try to rememebr how much did you respect yourself according to accomplolish that PLAN exactly as same as what you had in your mind. I do not Talk about possibility and dificulties that did not let you to follow your plan 100%. I am talking about yourself your attempts. Have you tried to do it with all energy, talent and attempt that you had to spend on that plan? Honestly we did not. For instance suppose that you have plan to finish you assignment in your job. You have to start it at 08;00 O'C morning, but you did not because last night you slept little bit late and morning you could not wake up on time then you were in your office at 08;30. Oh yes it is just 00;30 minutes. Do not forget we are talking about respect. In first step yo did not respect the time that you wanted to spent on special project. Let us say in amount of 00;30 minutes we did not respect ourself. Ok now it is now 08;30 you are behind your table and ready to start, but you feel tired because of last night and feel not good. Anyhow you began the work but the result is not efficient because you are tired. In this situation may be your best friend our your wife call you and you do not want to say them that you are busy (because of costum), let us say in total you will talk for 00;30 minutes. If we bring the first half and hour and half and hour talking and mention that because of tiredness also you were not efficient for thirty minutes. You see one hour and half we did not respect ourselves. Of course there are a lot of other aspects of stop you to do your plan as good as is possible.
According to this word respect, let us go to socity and see how much we do resect our friends, nighbours, colligues, and so on. We do not respect our friends either. Do not say that you do. Do yo remember last time that you had appointment with your friend at sharp 21;00 O'C. How much minutes late did you go to meeting point. I am not going to bring numbers any more because this disscusion is not statistic research. We want get some ideas according to The Word RESPECT and the problems of our culture. Let see this being late at an appointment from the eyes of some people who are always late. You know what they do? when they have appointment with one friend. Intialy they do not respect their friends and they think instead of their friends. How? For Instance repeatadly they say in thier thought "ok if I run little bit late on my appointment there would be no problem because my friend has no thing to do and he can stay in meeting point and see people who are passing (something that might this friend never get chance to do that in his/her normal day). Here this kind of poeple did not respect their friends. they gave right to themrselves to think instead of other poeple, and it is not respect.
