Man being a social animal needs constant affiliation from society. The above pyramid of Human Acknowledgement from the society depicts the stages a person goes through in his/her life to be a socially identified individual. The first stage is the OBSCURITY stage where an individual has limited association with family,relatives and close friends. The Obscurity stage is enjoyed by some while others long to extend their association with the larger groups and develop new contacts. Here, the second stage sets in where an individual deliberately starts seeking attention from others and gets involved in social activities and participates in community groups. He volunteers to invest time to be with his comrade and significant others and enjoys exposing himself for larger causes and personal recognition's. His/her, constant efforts bring them to the third stage in the pyramid that is the HIGHLIGHT stage, here, he begins to emphasise on a particular issue so that he gets special attention from the society. Persistent efforts begin to result in increased popularity yet over emphasis on weak issues may draw negative remarks from some corners, yet lucky ones escape the criticisms if any. The third level in the pyramid is the Limelight stage, where a person from the stage of OBSCURITY may reach by sheer luck or say, good fortune. In this stage an individual who does something very unusual comes to sudden focus and receives more public attention.The next level in the pyramid is the SPOTLIGHT stage, where a person gets a great deal of attention from society by their past actions, either ethical or unethical. After staying illuminated for a long time, our soul starts the inward journey of finding the very purpose of ourselves on the earth and is satisfied with the INNER LIGHT or ANTAR JYOTI but majority of people are still unable to turn inwards and fail to kindle the inner light within them. The gradual movement of every human being brings them to the peak of the pyramid where he is in the waiting room called TWILIGHT.
