Abstract
The term barrenness means the infertility of human heart, behavior, culture, life style and self- centered attitude of the people of post- modern period. For this kind of religious barrenness T.S. Eliot, W B Yeats and many other contemporary writers lamented for. Because, now we have men not mankind. We have now human being without humanity. Our world, at present, is such a world that takes pride of being the owner of destructive weapons by which millions of wretched may got crushed within seconds like Nagasaki or Hiroshima. All kinds of inhumane activities are now making valid wearing the musk of so called humanity. Thirst for power, land, lust and domination have already made our nations mad. Genocide has become a fashion of displaying one’s war-power, weapon and force. The blood of human being is now cheaper than that of animals. Culture is practiced with a view to increasing snobbery. The virginity of women is broken like toys of mud of an infant. The definition of democracy has already changed into a new version. It is now of the autocrats by the autocrats and for the autocrats by sucking the lives of the commoner. So it can be said in this era, that emptiness of life, terminological chaos, futility of culture and religion is much more barren and destructive than the contemporary time of Eliot. Though we have notably many thing but nothing in real perspective.
