अतिथि देवो भवो और  वसुधैव  कुटुम्बकम  का भाव लेकर भारत  की संस्कृति ने  पूरे विश्व  को बहुल संस्कृतिकवाद का विलक्षण उदाहरण प्रस्तुत किया है। भाव से आये  हुए व्यक्ति  को हृदय से, प्रभाव के कारण  आये  हुये व्यक्ति  को बु द्धि या मस्तिक से और अभाव में आय हुए व्यक्ति  को दोनों हाथो से आलिंगन करने का संस्कार भारतीयों  को अपनी सांस्कृतिक विरासत से  प्राप्त हुई है, और ये सभी भारतीयों  का संस्कार है। जम्मू कश्मीर के हिन्दू शरणार्थियों  का जो लोग विरोध कर रहे है वास्तविकता में अपनी ओछी संस्कार का परिचय दे रहे है। 

My book 'Multicuturalism: the essence of Indian culture' is an attempt to glorify Indian diversity as well as to reveal the factors sustaining diversity which is the life breath of Indian culture. The book is available online on amazon,com. It will also be displayed during  Delhi book fair from 7th January 2017 in Vitasta Publication ( www.vitastapublishing.com) stall. The book can be a reference book and  a must read to know the beauty of Indian cultural ethos which is sustaining and nurturing this diversity

    MERRY CHRISTMAS !!

GARGIwas a highly intellectual woman of the Vedic period. Our foundation- GARGI EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH AND CHARITABLE TRUST(Token no. 14595/2016), borrows its name from this same legendary figure. Registered on 14th December, 2016 this foundation , though intended to be multifaceted in its activities, will mainly strive towards achieving three basic objectives. Firstly, it aims to promote women empowerment especially in rural areas by seasoning their minds with education. We will look to organize seminars and workshops in order to achieve this objective.
Secondly it aims towards indianisation of the present education system which is increasingly inclined towards western ideas. Reform of the education system has become a dire necessity today and we must proceed in this direction.
The first workshop we will be organizing will probably be in some rural area of Bihar, on BETI BACHAO, BETI PADHAO,hopefully in January next year.

GARGI EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH AND CHARITABLE TRUST

VIVOBA IN 'TALKS OF THE GITA' says A small, insignificant thing gains in value and potency when it is so charged. This is the whole beauty of Karmayoga. Action is like the currency note. What after all, is a currency note? It is just a little piece of paper. If burnt, it would not warm up even a drop of water. But it has the stamp of the government on it, and that gives it value.
   Stamped with bhavana -sentiments and genuine feelings- it acquires value. A man doing surya-namaskars after bathing will certainly get the benefit of physical exercise; but if he is not doing them for the sake of health only, but as a form of worship, he will also have a sharp and radiant intellect in addition to a healthy body. He will get from the Sun- God vigour and creative energy. The at may be the same outwardly; but the difference in the inward feelings makes a world of difference.
GITA JYANTI KI BADHAI!!

A very irresponsible and disgusting approach of the Opposition. Continuous disrupment of Parliament only shows how they disrespect the very sanctity of this temple of democracy. These people are just wasting the time in addition to causing huge losses to the exchequer. Inclement steps must be taken against those who are making a mockery of the Indian Parliament.

भावनाओं का ऐसा उफान जो हर  ह्रदय  को छू  ले।  आज जयललिता जी की अंतिम यात्रा में जो जन सैलाव दिखा वह  उनके व्यक्तित्व का एक ऐसा  पहलू  है जो उनकी कमियों  को भी ढक लेता  है। समाज के लिए तथा  जनसाधारण के लिए उनके द्वारा किये गए कल्याणकारी कार्यों  की वजह से  उन्हें जनमानस के ह्रदय  में जगह मिली और वह  जनसाधारण की धड़कन बन गई ।  श्रद्धांजलि । 

 India hosting the Heart of Asia Summit, especially at this point of time, amidst heightened tensions with Pakistan is really a welcome news. Through its wise and tactful diplomacy, India has sent out a resounding message to uproot terrorism. Pakistan must have got the message as to how it is being isolated on every regional as well as international forum. Afghanistan too has been a victim of terrorism harboured and nourished in Pakistan and was only right in raising its voice after decades of patience. Sooner the Pakistani establishment opens its eyes, better it will be for them. At present, we can only hope to move towards a more tranquil and stable world.

Heartfelt tribute to India's  Bismarck 'Sardar Vallbhbhai Patel on his birth anniversary. His diplomatic manoeuvres aligned with deep patriotic spirit created a New India- strong and united. Our country is fortunate to have had a "saviour and builder", an iron man as the guiding light.
 What was Vallabhbhai ? asked Rajagopalchari once and he himself answered: "What inspiration, courage, confidence and force inccarnate Vallabhai was, .......we are unlikely to
see the likes of him again".......Wavell, The Viceroy's Journal p.260.

मन पवित्र हो तो करुणा ,सहयोग और ,प्रेम के दीप स्वतः प्रज्जवलित हो जाते है ।  मानवता का दीप हर ह्रदय में प्रकाशित हो ॥ शुभ दीपावली ॥ 

किसी भी धर्म की  परंपरायें  और रीति  रिवाज मानवता  और  मानवीय मूल्यों से बड़ा नहीं है। जो रीति  रिवाज और परम्परायें  मानवीय मूल्यों पर आधारित  नहीँ  हो  उसका बहिष्कार  आवश्यक  है। एक देश, एक कानून, एक आचार सहिंता का होना  राष्ट्रीय एकता  का परिचायक  है, जो कि  सकारात्मक विकास और सांस्कृतिक  उन्नति  का    मार्ग प्रशस्त  करती है।  आधुनिक समाज को   परम्परा  और रीति  रिवाजो के आधार पर न्याय से वंचित नहीं रखा जा सकता है। मुस्लिम महिलाओं को एकजुट होकर एक आचार सहिंता का समर्थन करना चाहिये  ताकि वे न्याय से वंचित नहीं रह सके। 

For writing my paper on gender justice in Islam I had gone through the Quran hadith (saying of the prophet)  sharia law and what I came across was only confusion, inconsistency and gender discrimination. It views woman as a commodity, an entity inferior to a man. On the other hand Durga Saptashati portrays a divine form of woman, as a creator, a source of positive energy and the destroyer of evil. Thus, a comparison between Hindu and Muslim scriptures on basis of gender justice clearly shows the prestige which the former bestows upon women and the injustice meted to them in the latter. These facts call for a thorough comparative study between the two scriptures on gender justice.

A tactful diplomatic response to Pakistan was the dire need of the hour and perhaps none could have been more befitting than boycotting the SAARC summit in Islamabad. The support India has received from AFGHANISTAN, BANGLADESH and BHUTAN is a further proof of the fact that terrorism is not just an issue between the Islamist Pakistan and the Secular India. This also hints at the growing unpopularity of Pakistan in the region and is an important step towards its Global Isolation.

Moreover, Indian Army's surgical strikes in PoK has crushed Pakistan's hollow pride in addition to inflicting lasting damage to terror launch pads on the other side of LoC. Salute to our paratroopers who accomplished this risk fraught mission successfully.

Sat Sat naman to BHAGAT SINGH , the great patriot who fueled the nationalistic sentiments of the masses.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE 'NIGHTINGALE OF INDIA',  LATA MANGESKAR. Wishing her  good health and a long life.Every song sung by Lata ji possesses a healing touch. The beauty of classical music, Cinema and art is its meaningfulness but most of the modern songs and cinema have a degenerate presentation which has a negative impact on mind. We must reverse this current trend.

जिनके घर शीशे  के होते है वे दूसरे के घर में पत्थर नहीं फेकते। कश्मीर का ख्वाब देखना पाकिस्तान छोड़ दे। कश्मीर भारत का अभिन्न  अंग है। आंतकियों का पालन कुछ देशो का सौख हो गया है। जो आंतक के खिलाफ है उन्हें अलग- थलग कर देना चाहिए।हमने दोस्ती चाही और बदले में उरी और पठानकोट मिला।  बहादुर अली हमारे सामने जिन्दा सबूत है। ..   SHUSMA SWARAJ THE VOICE OF INDIA
A Superb and resounding message to the world community, to muzzle terrorism. 

sat sat naman

राष्ट्र के गौरव में ही हमारा गौरव है। परंतु आदमी जब इस सामूहिक भाव को भूलकर अलग -अलग व्याक्तिगत धरातल पर सोचता है तो उससे नुकसान होता है। जब हम सामूहिक रूप से अपना -अपना काम करके राष्ट्र की चिंता करेंगे तो सबकी व्यवस्था हो जाएगी। यह  मूलभूत बात है कि हम सामूहिक रूप से विचार करें , समाज के रूप में विचार करें , व्यक्ति के नाते से नहीं। इसके विपरीत कोई भी काम किया गया तो वह समाज के लिए घातक होगा। सदैव समाज का विचार करके काम  चाहिए। ......... पं. दीनदयाल उपाधयाय का अंतिम भाषण (४ फरवरी , १९६८ , बरेली , उत्तरप्रदेश )

Nation pays heartfelt tribute to our 17 brave army men who sacrificed their lives in terrorist attack on Army camp at Uri.  We are indebted to and there are no words to pay homage to our brave soldiers. Its time up for discussions and meetings. Time is ripe now for action. It  needs  strategic planning on the ground  and give befitting reply to our enemies. Time requires a complete shift from soft to hard conflict management and pro active approach from govt of India on ground.

Be it any creed or religion, if it does not value humanitarian values and promotes harm to even the smallest of living entities, it must seriously think of course correction otherwise it will surely destruct itself. In the present age, probably there is nothing as ominous as Religious fundamentalism and its contemptuous disregard for human values. What face does Pakistan have to show to the world on the eve of Bakrid? Infamous as one of the most ardent proponents of religious fundamentalism in the form of terrorism, Pakistan has nowhere left to hide. Nurturing terrorism to wage a proxy war against India is a plan that is sure to backfire ultimately. Pakistan, the infamous hub of human right violations must mend its ways lest it should be too late.

We celebrate 8th September as World Literacy Day. In Indian culture, education is not only to equip ourselves with theoretical learnings but also to train our body, mind and soul so as to achieve all round development. Education should be aimed to achieve the spirit of tranquility and equanimity of mind both in physical world as well as in internal world. A balanced and comprehensive approach towards education will strengthen human being  to develop humanitarian values and peace in the world, which is the need of the hour today. Western education system appears to be incomplete and lacks comprehensive approach. Our enriched Indian culture and the value system has the strength  and capability to provide holistic education system.

Today is World Literacy Day and its high time that we take note of the alarmingly low levels of female literacy rates in Muslim countries and elsewhere. Female education is badly suffering due to religious fanaticism especially in the Muslim world. We are in dire need of brave spirits like Malala who have the courage to raise their voices in the face of religious extremism and gender injustice. Malala declared that
" I do not want to be thought as the girl who was shot by the Taliban, but as the girl who fought for education"
Pakistan has the lowest youth literacy rate.Only 59 percent females are literate as compared to 79 percent of males in the age group of 15 to 24 years. Nearly half of all women in the Arab World are illiterate. Saudi Arabia did not have a high school until after 1930, and its first girls school was established after 1950.

डॉ राधाकृष्णन भारतीय संस्कृति के प्रणेता और सुरक्षा कवच थे। आज हम सभी का दायित्व है की हम अपनी संस्कृति को अब बौद्धिक  औपनिवेशिक बंधन से मुक्त करें। शिक्षक दिवस  की बहुत शुभकानाये। 

प्रो राकेश सिन्हा द्वारा हिंदी विवेक में प्रकाशित लेख 'भारतीय बौद्धिकता पर मैकाले -मार्क्सवादी  ग्रहण ' अद्भुत और विचारणीय है। इस लेख में सूक्ष्म और वृहत विश्लेषण के द्वारा तथ्यों के आधार पर भारतीय संस्कृति को दरकिनार करने की जो चेष्टा  मैकाले समर्थक कुछ  कांग्रेस और मार्क्सवादी  बुद्धिजीवियों  द्वारा  की गई है इसमे इन सभी को उजागर करने का प्रयास किया गया है। ''औपनिवेशिक शासन का तो अंत हुआ परन्तु औपनिवेशिक संस्कृति सोच और समझ यथावत बनी रही।

 स्वयं जवाहरलाल  नेहरु ने जाने -अनजाने इस सच को स्वीकार किया था कि उन्होंने भारत को पश्चिम के प्रिज्म से देखा है। " डॉ   राजेंद्र प्रसाद , एन वी  गाडगिल ,पुरुषोत्तमदास टंडन, शंकरराव देव ,कन्हैयालाल माणिकलाल मुंशी इत्यादि ऐसे कितने ही भारतीय संस्कृति के चिंतको को हासिये पर रखा गया। ऐसे अनेक तथ्यों  के द्वारा इस लेख में बौद्धिक आतंकवाद का परिचय मिलता है। लेकिन हमारी संस्कृति आशावादी है और इसलिए इस लेख की  अंतिम पंक्ति भी सूर्यकांत त्रिपाठी निराला जी रचित  एक पंक्ति से ख़त्म होती  है जो उन्होंने भगवान श्री राम के सन्दर्भ में  लिखा  था और वह पंक्ति भारत के राष्ट्रवादी चिंतन धारा के लिए उपयुक्त  है  .. होगी जय , होगी जय , हे पुरुषोत्तम नवीन।

Debates,discussions and conferences make their worth when it gives some output in a problem solving manner. It should find out the answers of what ought to be rather than only focussing  only on what is? Patna Women's College Political Science Department and History Department in collaboration with Women's Development Corporation and Centre for Gender Studies is organising an  INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CHALLENGING PATRIARCHY : A HUMANIST PERSPECTIVE from 26th-28th October 2016. Let us hope that the Conference will come out with some solution and innovative ideas. My paper for conference is 'ISLAM ,GENDER JUSTICE AND UNIFORM CIVIL CODE'. Mumbai High Court's decision to allow women in Haji Ali Dargah is appreciable and will have a deep impact on the efforts being made towards achieving the goal of Gender Equity. Change is inevitable  and is a continuous process in a  progressive society. No doubt Islam need renaissance in totality to let valued the article 21 of constitution RIGHT TO LIFE WITH DIGNITY  and Humanism.
The statement given by All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) in Supreme Court that " Sharia grants right to divorce to husband because men have greater power of decision making" is ridiculous. This shows the mentality of the persons sitting at such a level, Certainly it is an indicator that the gender equality issue is going to take a long time to settle. 

सत्यनिष्ट, कर्तव्यनिष्ट, अनुशासननिष्ट एवं कर्मनिष्ट स्वतंत्रा सेनानी  को श्रद्धांजलि  और शत शत  नमन। 

आज लालक़िले से हमारे आदरणीय प्रधानमंत्री की उद्घोषणा भारत के इतिहास में आज तक  दी गई उद्घोषणाओं में सबसे स्वर्णिम रहा। आज ऐसा लगा भारत की राजनीतिक ,सामाजिक आर्थिक पहलुओं के अलावा सांस्कृतिक पहलू गौण रहती थी उन्होंने इसे जीवित किया। वेद से विवेकानंद तक, मोहन के  सुदर्शन से मोहन के चरखा तक ,या भीम से भीमराव आंबेडकर तक...... उन्होंने भारत की सांस्कृतिक विरासत जो माँ भारती ने अपने संस्कारों में भारतियों को दिया था हमने उसे सुसुप्त कर रखा था उन्होंने उसे  जीवित करने का प्रयास किया। उन्होंने सामजिक,आर्थिक राजनितिक और सांस्कृतिक समीकरणों का एकीकरण किया और एक holistic approach द्वारा उन्होंने लगभग सभी बिंदुओं पर प्रकाश डाला। ..... महिला सशक्तिकरण ,सामाजिक न्याय , राजनीति   की  कार्य संस्कृति या भारत की आर्थिक सशक्तिकरण , पर्यावरण या भारत की विदेश नीति, पाकिस्तान को कठोर सन्देश, आतंकवाद का समाधान या बलूचिस्तान में हो रहे मानवाधिकार का उल्लंघन के मुद्दे को उठाना या चीन के  आर्थिक सशक्तिकरण को  चुनौती देना, इन सबके अलावे  जो आज के प्रधान मंत्री के भाषण में अतुलनीय था, वह था उनकी सांस्कृतिक राष्ट्रवाद  की छाप जो हमारी चिरस्थाई विकास की आधारशिला है। 

Unsung Hero of the Freedom Movement
Vakkom Abdul Khader was a true patriot who was willing to die for the cause. He was hanged to death by British in 1943.
Jatin Das was a revolutionary freedom fighters. On the 63rd day of his hunger strike, he died. He is one of the unsung heroes of our freedom struggle.

स्वराज्य से सुराज की ओर बढ़ना और शासन की आम जनता के प्रति संवेदलशीलता ही  ७० वीं स्वतन्त्रता
 दिवस  का  संकल्प है।
जय हिन्द !! वीर भोग वसुंधरा !!

Saluting the staunch nationalist Bal Ganga Dhar Tilak, on his birth anniversary......the true patriot who envisioned the integration of politics and culture. His immortal saying- 'Sawaraj is my birth right and I shall have it' instilled the much needed enthusiasm in the freedom struggle . The same enthusiasm is needed today, to give a fitting reply to the Separatists and Pakistan who are misguiding Kashmir.

गुरु गोबिंद दोऊ खड़े काके लागू पाएँ।
बलिहारी गुरु आपनो ,जिन गोबिंद दियौ  बताय।  

Will the moment ever come when Pakistan undergoes political metamorphosis and is seen as a peaceful country rather than being a harbinger of terrorism? The notion of Pakistan in the world is an apt case of polite fiction..... Since time immemorial, Pakistan has incorrigibly been branding terrorists as martyrs. Its continuous unwavering support to the egregious acts of terrorism and brazen impenitence over the issue of harbouring terrorism calls for international isolation and inclement steps.

हुंकारों से महलों की नीव उखड़ जाती ,
साँसों के  बल से ताज हवा में उड़ता है
जनता की रोके राह समय में ताब कहाँ ?
वह जिधर चाहती , काल उधर ही मुड़ता है।

 सबसे विराट जनतंत्र जगत का आ पहुँचा
अभिषेक  आज राजा का नहीं, प्रजा का है।
                                             रामधारी सिंह दिनकर  
   तुर्की की जनता ने पुनः लोकतंत्र की ताकत का सुखद परिचय दिया है जो अनुकरणीय  और सराहनीय दोनों ही है। 

The evil of terrorism or the Kashmir issue can't be solved by a few people sitting in an ivory tower. It needs tremendous efforts on ground. Mental sickness of Muslim fundamentalism is taking a barbaric shape in the form of terrorism. Tackling this rampant menace needs intense strategic planning.
Terrorism is spreading throughout the world and the terrorist attack on Nice(France) is nothing but an act of cowardice. The world must stand united and walk the talk to tackle this evil.                                                                                                                                                                         

There is no plausible reason to prioritize Muslim personal board and Sharia law at the cost of Justice. We should welcome Supreme Court’s decision of evaluating triple talaq on the lines of our Constitutional principles. Innumerable muslim women have been ostracized owing to the discriminatory Sharia law which undermines the RIGHT TO LIFE WITH DIGNITY, guaranteed by ARTICLE 21 of our Constitution. The courage of women like SHAYRA BANO, AFREEN, SHAH BANO and many others needs to be appreciated. A Uniform Civil Code is of utmost necessity in an egalitarian and democratic society. Political parties and Religious preachers, instead of playing their crass games, should welcome the decision and not try to be a barrier to this wind of change.

THEORETICAL EDUCATION MAY GIVE FOOD FOR BODY BHAGAVAD GITA GIVES  FOOD FOR SOUL

Tonnes of congratulations to the Haryana Government for including  Bhagavad Gita in the school curriculum. Those who consider it saffronisation of education system  are just like  ‘Frog in the well’ who know nothing of the open oceans .  Our national character will be glorified the day we start considering the importance of our valuable cultural heritage and sustain and preserve it for glorious future. Gita helps children to fight the battle of life through moral and virtuous  path and build a strong moral character which would be beneficial for the future of nation and for the cleansing the declining moral character of society. Besides imparting theoretical education which will provide them’ food for body’ the education of Bhagavad Gita is necessary because it  make them well equipped with  practical knowledge i.e. is ‘the way of life’ and provide them the most  sustainable and evergreen food which will  be necessary for their all round development. That food is ‘ Food for Soul’ the basic ingredient of life.  

Management with a human touch is the necessity of 21st century, isn't it? and there is a notable paucity of this vital necessity in every sphere
The feeling of Love, Caring, Sharing and mutual respect are necessary ingredients of a successful human relationship. It doesn't matter whether you are working in the corporate sector, educational institutions,  political field, medical profession or anywhere else, human touch is the key to successful management. In fact terrorism, the evil plaguing the whole world, is a repercussion of the deteriorating human relations and lack of human touch. Humanity is being butchered, in the name of religion only due to this lack of human touch.
A successful corporate sector is not the one which can give a short term high growth rate at the cost of man but the one that gives its employee a human touch. Similarly student-teacher relation is bound to fail miserably, unless there is human touch among them . Our defence minister Mohan Parrikar gave an excellent example of this when he went to meet his teacher in the latter's house. Political parties cannot be successful unless they give a human touch to its workers. The decline of Congress and Left parties can be attributed to the fact that they have failed to give a human touch to its grass -root level workers  and its the failure to give a human touch to its grass-root level workers. When the PMO, responding to Vaishali's request, provided her with financial and medical assistance it was just another example of providing the human touch. Doctors need to give a human touch to the patients and that can cure even faster than medicines. In our day to day life when we need help from our helpers, we need to provide them too with a human touch. Foreign and diplomatic relation can only be maintained through human touch. Pakistan and China have continuously undermined the value of human touch in maintaining relations and are now isolated on global platform.
 Having a professional attitude is not bad but when we lack human touch in any profession or in our life's management it does not augur well for us and the society too.

SPEAKING ABOUT THE RULING CONGRESS PARTY JAYPRAKASH NARAYAN SAID:
"The congress ceased to be a movement soon after it came to power in 1947 .......and became a mere election machine. Even so it retained to a considerable extent its democratic character, its mass organisational structure and inner vitality. All that has changed in the past two or three years. Pardoxical though it may seem, the Congress despite its massive electoral victories in 1971 and 1972 is today a little more than a hollow shell." Viewing with deep concern the inner working of the Congress Party, JP said that there was "little or no internal democracy left in it, and that its state leaders and Chief Ministers were mostly had-picked men, rather than leaders in theirown right. In fact, systematic efforts has been made to cut the ground under the feet of such national and state leaders as have a base of their own in the party and among the people, " JP wrote, "might suit Indiraji's style of leadership, but it spells ruin for the congress as a democratic organisation and ipso facto for Indian democracy itself. For it is not reasonable to expect an organisation that does not practice democracy in its internal affairs to be much concerned about preserving democracy in the affairs of the nation."

JP's vision of a Free Progressive India

In his final appeal to the voters on March 13, 1977 to defeat dictatorship and restore democracy, Jayprakash Narayan shared with the people his vision of the India of his dreams. 

He said: " The India of my dreams is a community in which every individual, every resource, is dedicated to serving the weak - a community dedicated to Antodyaya, to the well-being of the lowest and the weakest.

It is a community in which individuals are valued for their humanity-a community in which the right of every individual to act  according to his conscience is recognised and respected by all. 

It is a community in which different views contend peacefully, in which disagreements are settled in a civilized manner. It is a community in which fellow men persuade each other, not bludgeon each other."

मानो , जनता ही फूल जिसे अहसास नहीं ,
जब चाहो तभी उतार सजा लो दोनों में ;
अथवा कोई दुधमुंही जिसे बहलाने के
जंतर-मंतर सीमित हों चार खिलौनों में।
 आरती लिए तू किसे ढूंढता है मूरख ,
मंदिरों,राजप्रासादों में ,तहखानों में ?
देवता कहीं सडकों पर गिट्टी तोड़ रहें ,
देवता मिलेंगे खेतों में ,खलियानों में।
    सदियों की ठंढी -बुझी राख सुगबुगा उठी ,
     मिट्टी सोनें का ताज पहन इठलाती है ;
    दो राह समय के रथ का धर्धर -नाद सुनों ,
सिंहासन खाली करो कि जनता आती है। .... ..... रामधारी सिंह दिनकर 

सर्वसाधारण जनता की उपेक्षा एक बड़ा राष्ट्रीय अपराध है। ..... स्वामी विवेकानंद  

 JP GAVE INDIA ITS SECOND FREEDOM: EMERGENCY    
"In the death of JP , the country has lost the gentlest and kindest of men and its conscience keeper. For generations now, Jayprakash acted as a compass to the nation's ship. It was he who made it possible for the country to emerge from the Emergency to the restoration of civil liberties and the rule of law" . ....................................MINOO MASANI
        " He establised the sovereignty of the spirit over the recalcitrance of the body, the triumph of the spirit over the flesh, and carried to a successful conclusion the assertion of the revolutionary power of the people. Over 30 years and more , he stood like a colossus, immovable and unmoved in his conviction and faith in sampoorna kranti (total revolution ) which must transform the social and economic order and elevate man to a higher spiritual level . He represented par excellence the true spirit of India and gave himself in full measure in the service not only of his country, but of entire humanity. " ..............JUSTICE P.N. BHAGVATI
        "Historical forces mould the course of events for a nation. JP was a man of vision and indomitable courage. The forces arraigned against him were forrmidable. What he achieved was a miracle. Had he not been on the scene, there would have been no Janata government at the centre or in some states. It would have been immensely satisfying if he had been allowed to die with the thought that the country was safe in the hands of its leaders. That is not the case. The greatest tribute that these leaders can pay to take a vow not to fight among themselves. But will they? For the moment many hypocrites who ignored and tortured JP in his life-time are today issuing cold and customary messages drafted by their paid secretaries". ...........COURTESY: SEARCHLIGHT, PATNA, OCTOBER 9, 1979

CHINA’S NARROW MINDED DIPLOMACY:  THE NSG ISSUE

Credibility and Responsible attitude are the necessary ingredients of a successful diplomatic behaviour. India has inculcated both in its diplomacy, which places it a notch above countries like Pakistan and China, which have petty mindsets and work only for Geo-political gains. Their narrow mindset is crystal clear from their opposition to India’s NSG bid. While China and Pak consider India’s membership threatening, it is clear that India does not intend to utilize its membership for Geo-political gains.

Pakistan has always misconstrued India to be the biggest threat to its sovereignty. What Pakistan fails to realize is that India has got concerns of her own and is not worried about a nation as unimportant and unreliable as Pakistan. As far as competition between the two is concerned, Pakistan is nowhere near India, be it economy, military prowess or international standing. Pakistan’s internal system is the termite which is devouring it from within and it will not be a long time before Pakistan realises that it itself is its worst enemy.

China seems to have placed its arms on the shoulders of the wrong country. By siding with Pakistan on various issues, just in a vain effort to undermine India, China too has lost its credibility in the recent years. Imagine, if China had chosen to work WITH India rather than AGAINST it, what would present day Asia look like. It would have been a win-win paradigm for both. Sooner or later, China is bound to realize its folly.

BREXIT and its implications

BREXIT could well be a turning point in the history of the world, heralding a new era wherein broad humanist views are overshadowed by petty economic concerns. In addition to the economic and financial implications, it will have a range of other after effects, especially on Britain’s society. Yes, it could solve the so called problem of influx of refugees but in a total disregard of humanitarian principles. Shouldn’t it be the responsibility of every nation to address the plight of the refugees? It is preposterous to equate it with loss of national identity. Nationalist views are necessary when it comes to the integrity of a country but narrow nationalism is something we should remain wary of. 

संतोष एक सांतवना नहीं है , कमजोरी नहीं है , बड़ी  शक्ति है। संतोष पारसमणि है , जिसके स्पर्श से आनंद नाम के स्वर्ण में परिवर्तित हो सकता है। मानस सूत्र है " हमारी आवश्यकता पूरी करने के लिए अस्तित्व बना  है , लेकिन हमारी इच्छाएँ पूरी करने के लिए नहीं बना है " यही भारतीय संस्कृति है जिसे पश्चिमी संस्कृति समझने में असमर्थ है। 

मोरारी बापू के आनंद मंत्र में दो सूत्र  मुझे बहुत ही समसामयिक लगी।   पहला आनंद मंत्र दान का।  दान का आशय मात्र धन का दान नहीं है , बल्कि  अपने पास जो भी शुभ  हो वह दूसरे को  देना  दान कहलाता है। भगवान शंकर महादानी है , इसलिए वे प्रसन्न हैं। दूसरा आनंद मंत्र है अमान। अमान  रहना चाहिए। संसार में मान  की अपेक्षा नहीं रखनी चाहिए। शंकर अमान है , इसलिए प्रसन्न है। 

G.E.G.Catlin, in his 'Science and Method of Politics' (1927) advanced the case for a 'value-free' pure science. He treated 'power' as essence of politics and argued that analysis of 'power' should not be inclined in favour of any particular value-system.  I think,  in today scenario, money and muscle power and 'value- free' work culture have developed in the fields of politics.

One cannot help a country to maintain its standard of life by assisting people to consume more than they produce. ..... F.A. HAYEK (1976)  But Gandhi wrote in Amrita Bazar Patrika(1934) : " what is needed is not the extinction of landlords and capitalists, but transformation of the existing relationship between them and the masses into something healthier and purer.
    We can feel the difference between Indian and western philosopher
                  

मन ईश्वर की विभूति है। उसके ऊपर धूल चढ़ जाती है , तब वह धूमिल हो जाती है। रामचरित मानस का सूत्र है "जो मन का अतिक्रमण करता है , वह ब्रह्म बन जाता है। "

"In a well-constituted deliberative forum, through the give-and-take of argument, participants can learn from each other, come to recognize their individual and collective misapprehensions, and develop new views and policies that can more successfully withstand critical scrutiny.When citizens bargain and negotiate, they may learn how better to get what they want. But when they deliberate, they can expand their knowledge, including their self-understanding as well as their collective understanding of what will best serve their fellow citizens." .....Dennis Thompson(2007)

 Man Ki Baat is encouraging people's Deliberation on public Issues. Its a Rational Deliberation among citizens to shape their Life according to their choice.

"Generally speaking, an Indian university must regard itself as one of the living organs of national reconstruction. It must discover the best means of blending together both the spiritual and the material aspects  of life. It must equip its alumni irrespective of caste, creed or sex, with individual fitness, not for its own sake, not for merely adorning varied occupations and professions, but in order to teach them how to merge their individuality in the common cause of advancing the progress and prosperity of their motherland and upholding the highest traditions of human civilisation"

 "एक देश में दो विधान, दो प्रधान और दो निशान नहीं चलेंगे " Which means "Ours is one country; we cannot have Two constitutions, Two Presidents and Two Flags!!". -- Shyama Prasad Mukherjee.

He gave a call to the country for complete integration of Jammu and Kashmir to Indian union and to strengthen the National Integration.

SAT SAT NAMAN TO THE GREAT SOUL AND GREAT PATRIOT ON HIS PUNYA TITHI !!!

We evaluate social, political and cultural changes on two standards, First is Development and Second is Progress. Development is a process in which a system or institution is transformed into stronger, more organised, more efficient and more effective form so that it proves to be more satisfying in terms of human wants and aspirations.

            Progress is a process in which a system or institution is transformed into a new form which is regarded better than and morally superior to the old form. progress is distinguished from other concepts of social change (evolution, development, etc. ) as it involves moral judgement and evaluation . While other views of social change try to measure it on empirical scale, the concept of progress applies normative criterion to ascertain its value for humanity.

            NDA's decision to open up more space for foreign direct investment though may be timely and progressive, but it needs a deep analysis on both empirical and normative scale from experts. Though there is no doubt that India's political system as well as social and cultural system need appetite of both development and progress.

WHAT IS MORALLY WRONG CANNOT BE POLITICALLY RIGHT
                                                                      DONALD SOPER(1966)

अपनी समस्त प्रजा के प्रति सम भाव का होना ही राजा का धर्म है और तभी समाज में सामाजिक समरसता आ सकती है। उच्च पदों पर बैठे लोगों में  सम भाव की दृस्टि जरुरी है, चाहे किसी धार्मिक पद पर प्रतिष्ठित लोग हों या प्रशासनिक या शिक्षा के क्षेत्र में हों। ऐसा होगा तभी समाज का समुचित विकास सम्भव हो पाएगा। सम दृस्टि से ही राष्ट्र एक सूत्र में बंधेगा और प्रतिष्ठित होगा। 

We can purchase temporal pleasures and luxuries but the same does not stand true for inner peace. We arrive in this world empty handed and depart empty handed. Rather than setting precepts, Indian philosophy sets an example of selfless service through the numerous saints who have inhabited this land. Teesta Setalwad has utilized foreign funds from Ford Foundation and many others, just for materialistic luxuries and anti national activities and that too at the cost of the destitute . To think of her receiving the Padma Shree! It is just preposterous and exhibits the narrow mentality of Congress which bestowed her this honour.

धन्य हैं भारत के साधु संत जिन्होंने अपनी ज्ञान की सीमा गुफाओं तक ही सीमित न रख कर सर्वकल्याण के लिए सर्वदा समर्पित रहे।  उन्होंने योग को जन- जन तक लाकर  पूरे  विश्व के कल्याण और मंगल  के लिए अतुलनीय योगदान दिया। योग शरीर, मन,बुद्धि, मस्तिस्क और आत्मा के बीच एक संतुलन स्थापित करता है जिसके फलस्वरूप आंतरिक और बाहरी जगत के बीच सामंजस्य स्थापित होता है। धन्य है भारत की आध्यात्मिक शक्ति जो पूरी तरह से वैज्ञानिक अनुसन्धान पर आधारित है।   भारत विश्व गुरु बनकर पुरे विश्व को आध्यात्मिक  मार्गदर्शन प्रदान कर सकता है जिसकी जरूरत आज विश्व को है । अंतर्राष्ट्रीय योग दिवस का इतने बड़े स्तर पर लगभग २०० देशों द्वारा मनाना जाना एक शुभ संकेत है । 

एकांत सबसे अच्छा पाठशाला और मौन सबसे अच्छी पाठ। मन का सहयोग नहीं करना चाहिए यही है मानसिक असहयोग आंदोलन। 

हिन्दू कहे मोहि राम पियारा ,तुर्क कहे रहमाना

सत्ता, प्रतिष्ठा , और कलम की पहुँच  अंतिम तिरस्कृत और उपेक्षित व्यक्ति  तक होना चाहिए । अगर ऐसा नहीं होता है तो धिक्कार  है वैसी सत्ता, प्रतिष्ठा और कलम को । विचारों की कमी नहीं है ,कमी है तो उपेक्षित तिरस्कृत व्यक्तियों  का  उद्धार करने वालों लोगों की, उन्हें  स्वीकार करने वाले लोगों की । कोई अपनी सत्ता की मद में, कोई अपनी तथाकथित प्रतिष्ठा के अहंकार में विचरण कर रहा है तो किसी की कलम सत्ता पक्ष का गुणगान कर रही है ।कैराना में हिन्दुओं का सामाजिक और आर्थिक वहिष्कार हो रहा है ।  किसे  फिक्र है उस उपेक्षित, तिरस्कृत कैराना के हिन्दुओं की व्यथा सुनने की और उसके जख्म पर मरहम लगाने की ?  तथा उन्हें फिर से पुनर्स्थापित करने की? कैराना को राजनीतिक दल अपना अपना  वोट बैंक तथा हिन्दू मुस्लिम की  साम्प्रदायिक महफिल नहीं बनायें ।  यहाँ मानवीय  मूल्यों एवं  मानवीय  अधिकारों का हनन हुआ है।  सत्ता का लाभ जब अंतिम व्यक्ति तक पहुँचता हो, कलम की लेखनी अगर अंतिम व्यक्ति तक पहुंचती हो ,प्रतिष्ठा का लाभ भी अगर देश के अंतिम व्यक्ति तक जब पहुँचता हो तो यही सामाजिक न्याय है, यही राम राज्य है। दुर्भाग्यपूर्ण  है कि उत्तर प्रदेश जैसा महत्वपूर्ण प्रदेश इन सबसे पूरी तरह से वंचित है। 

विनोबाजी  का  यह सूत्र बहुत ही सटीक है कि "युद्ध कभी दो धर्मों के बीच नहीं होता, दो अधर्मों के बीच ही होता है"  इस्लाम धर्म को जब कुछ लोग अधर्म की और ले जाने  का प्रयास  करते है तो  कभी वह आतंकवाद का रूप लेती है तो कभी कश्मीरी  पंडितों को पलायन के लिए वाध्य करने के रूप में सामने आती है और  कभी कैराना से हिन्दुओं के पलायन के रूप में सामने  आती है। इस्लाम धर्म को कुछ लोग अधर्म का  पर्याय बनाने के लिए  प्रयत्नशील क्यों है ? भारतीय संविधान की अल्पसंख्यंकों के प्रति अति उदारता को वे कमजोरी न समझें । इस तरह की घटनाओं का बार बार घटित होना भविष्य के लिए शुभ संकेत नहीं है । 

Each child is unique and a highly valuable gift of God. Exploiting a child for materialistic gains is nothing short of an egregious sin. According to the ILO, even in the 21st Century, when mankind is claiming to have reached great heights, about 168 million children are child labors and shamefully India is the country with the largest population of child labours. Isn't Right to life and dignity, the basic right of every child? Today, child labor has assumed such demonic proportions that it is quite difficult, if not impossible, for the govt. to tackle this problem singlehandedly. Therefore every individual needs to do his part. Eliminating poverty at the grassroot level seems the only viable option to tackle this rampant menace. Bringing a smile on each child's face should be the responsibility of everyone one of us. LET US PLEDGE TO  TO REPLACE THE BROOM WITH A PEN IN EVERY AFFECTED CHILD'S HAND.

THE WIND OF CHANGE IN INDIA’S FOREIGN POLICY

In the last 2 years, there has been a stark improvement in India’s foreign policy and even more so in its implementation, by maintaining the right balance between idealism and realism. Today India is an epitome of how a country can excel on the Global stage, without strictly adhering to methodological policies and rules or the Machiavellian concept of ‘lion and fox diplomacy’ or an expansionist vision. Indian foreign policy has shown the relevance of a humanist vision in diplomatic behavior. Be it showing sincere concern over global crises i.e. terrorism and environmental issues OR ‘conflict management’ and ‘crisis-management’ on various micro and macro issues OR winning the heart of public, it has excelled in every field. This shows the importance of considering foreign policy encompassing both cultural and political spheres as against a purely political and strategic view. Urging to world to think united, act united and to walk the talk has emerged to be the mantra of India’s policy. It has paved the way for public diplomacy which not only attracts FDI but also proves that it is not self-centred, though self reliant and modest yet effective. The result is before us- membership of the MTCR and probably NSG too. The time is right to press forward for a permanent membership of the UNSC too. 

French philosopher Rousseau quite appositely remarked : " A human being, though essentially good in nature, may deviate from his nature because of bad social environment which is there because of degenerate art and culture and artificial society".......Cinema and Literature should always have a positive progressive presentation because these are the two most potent tools to influence the society's mindset. Their role is to inculcate positive thoughts and creativity in the minds of the youth, rather than making a proud exhibition of  egregious acts and the darker side of society. Udta Punjab could have presented the same theme with a constructive approach but in its present form, it would only mislead the youth.

Once our life becomes soaked with the true spirit of service, we will feel that all our individual and family possessions, however abundant that may be, do not really belong to us. There are only the means to worship God in the form of society. Our whole life will then be an offering in the service of society. The upanishad say: GOD PERMEATES ALL CREATION. WHATEVER IS LEFT OVER BY HIM, AFTER OFFERING HIM, ENJOY ONLY THAT MUCH. DO NOT ROB WHAT BELONGS TO OTHERS. In Bhagavata Narada says: Take whatever is essential for bodily sustenance. To take more is an act of theft and deserves to be punished. Thus we are only trustees of society. It is only when we become trustees in the true sense that we can serve society best. Such a pure attitude of service will leave no scope for ego or self - adulation.  ......BUNCH OF THOUGHTS BY M.S. GOLWALKAR    SAT SAT NAMAN

OUR CULTURAL PRISM
One peak of the Himlayan vision of our culture, which none else in the world has so far aspired to climb, is the spirit of एकं सत् विप्रा बहुधा वदन्ति (Truth is one, sages call it variously). There is no equivalent expression in English to convey this beautiful sentiment. The word 'tolerance', which is often used to express this idea is very meek, it is just another word for sufferance. It implies n element of ego, which just tolerates other viewpoints without any love or respect for them. But our training has been one of respecting and even accepting other faiths and viewpoints as so many paths to reach the same truth.SAT SAT NAMAN 

"राज्य में बीजेपी -पीडीपी गठबंधन की सरकार बनने के बाद कश्मीरी पंडितों की वापसी का सवाल 'यूटोपिया ' से यथार्थ बनने लगा। " राकेश सिन्हा  हिंदुस्तान २ जून २०१६ कश्मीरी पंडित वापसी की जगी उम्मीदें 

Incessant pampering of fundamentalism and appeasement, vote bank politics of of the political parties have subdued the voice of Shah Bano case, but they have not been able to subdue the progressive voice of Heena Zaheer Naqvi, Uttar pradesh's first women Qazi. Its time that the govt. should take initiative through healthy discourse for the implementation of Uniform Civil Code which will integrate the nation.

A great patriot whose selfless service to nation provides a great learning lesson for those who ditch the nation for their personal benefits.... sat sat naman to the great patriot Veer Savarkar......" The ideal conditions, therefore, under which a nation can attain perfect solidarity and cohesion would, other things being equal, be found in the case of those people who inhabit the lad they adore, the land of whose forefathers is also the land of their Gods and Angels, of seers and prophets; the scenes of their mythology."

The innate nature of politics should be 'conflict management' and 'conflict resolution' with twin slogans- action and relevance.The growing violence for the  'survival of the fittest criminals in politics' has become quite ubiquitous and the Left is carrying its legacy of violence in Kerala. Bihar  too is not far behind in this aspect. The murder of RSS activists in Kerala, Aditya Sachdeva and a reporter,  in addition to many others, in Bihar is really unfortunate. The attacks on Tarun Vijay and  Roopa Ganguly are another sign of growing violence in Politics. Just like ecological balance is being disrupted in nature, political system is becoming unbalanced too. Politics without ethics is like a ship without a rudder, a body without soul. This needs holistic reforms.

The changing Indian political culture.............

Political culture of India is now shaping up differently and voting behaviour is changing in our country. Political cleansing of Congress party has started through piecemeal social engineering. The credit goes to BJP for its strategic planning. Victory of BJP in Assam assembly election and getting significant vote share in Kerala is a sign of political emancipation in every aspect. 

Taslima Nasreen has revealed the duplicity of the hypocrites, the so called Indian secularist politicians-how they use the propaganda of secularism for vote bank and minority appeasement. She rightly said:" I' have noticed that the liberals and leftists are generally very critical of Hindu fanaticism- but not of Islamic fanaticism. Islamic fanatics are against human rights, women's rights, free speech and democracy. Islamic fanatics are against everything that the Indian liberals stand for; but strangely, the liberals sympathize with them. They have distorted the concept of secularism."...The Times of India May 16 2016
       The true concept of secularism is being distorted in India for personal benefits and if this over appeasement of minorities goes on unabated, the future would be just like Hobbe's state of nature, where the life of individuals would be one of potential warfare. We have borne the pseudo- secularists for too long and have inadvertently assisted their game plan. We must comprehend the true nature of secularism, which is innate in our cultural heritage and foil their game plan

Why shouldn't a layman consider politics a dirty game? Especially Bihar's power politics. The recent spur in crimes in Bihar and the incorrigible unconcerned politicians are really a great cause of concern. The killing of the reporter in Siwan district is really condemnable. Nitish Kumar should first cleanse his own backyard before trying to take the nation's responsibility on his shoulders.

बढ़ता बिहार , बढ़ता अपराध ?? नीतीश सरकार !!!

एक के बाद एक आपराधिक घटनाओं के माहौल में  बिहार की जनता असहाय महसूस कर रही है । अभ गया में 19 वर्षीय लड़के  को एक सत्ताधारी दल के विधायक के बेटे ने सिर्फ इसलिए गोली मार दी क्योंकि उसने विधायक के बेटे की गाड़ी को आगे जाने के लिए रास्ता नहीं दिया ।  इस घटना को घटे  चंद घंटे ही हुए थे कि सिवान में भरें बाजार में , भीड़ के बीच खुले आम हिंदुस्तान दैनिक अखवार के पत्रकार  राजदेव रंजन को अपराधियों ने गोली मारकर हत्या कर दी ।
बिहार प्रदेश के मुखिया आजकल दूसरे प्रदेशों के भ्रमण में व्यस्त हैं । उन्होंने इन पीड़ित परिवारों का दुःख दर्द बाँटने तक तक की जरुरत नहीं समझी और न ही बिहार सरकार का कोई  वरिष्ठ मंत्री इन परिवारों से मिलने गया ।
नितीश कुमार अगर पूरे देश को नेतृत्व प्रदान करना चाहते हैं तो पहले अपने प्रदेश में अच्छा माहौल बनायें । बिहार को अपराधमुक्त एवं विकासोन्मुखी बनायें । जातियों और समुदायों के बीच बढ़ती खाई को कम कर सामाजिक समरसता कायम करें । बिहार को एक मॉडल के रूप में विकसित करें , जिसे देखकर देश की जनता उनपर भरोसा कर सके ।

A TRIBUTE TO RABINDRA NATH TAGORE

Rabindranath Tagore was an epitome of purity in thoughts. His deeds bestow upon us, a marvelous lesson as to how we can modernize our rich cultural heritage by reinvigorating it and feeling proud of its ineffable greatness, rather than appreciating falsehood and running after temporal illusions-' like a deer in search of kastoori, whereas the kastoori lies within it'. We have a rich cultural heritage but instead of perpetuating it, we are running blindly after the ‘so called’ western modernity. It is the prime cause of concern for us. It is the most potent reason behind the ever growing socio-political and moral degradation. We are forgetting our cultural and moral values, which is the the reason for the deteriorating social and political system.

Give me the strength lightly to bear my joys and sorrows.

Give me the strength to make my love fruitful in service.

Give me the strength never to disown the poor or bend my knees before insolent might.

Give me the strength to raise my mind high above daily trifles.

And give me the strength to surrender my strength to thy will with love....
                                                                      ......RABINDRA NATH TAGORE  (GITANJALI)

पाकिस्तान से भारत आय हिन्दू शरणार्थियों के प्रति नेहरूवादी दृष्टिकोण को मोदी सरकार ने अलविदा कह दिया है। मोदी सरकार का यह पहल नेहरू-लियाकत अली के बीच हुए समझौते के दुष्परिणामों को उजागर करती है। मुखर्जी - मंडल की वह आवाज आज साकार हो रही है ,जो सेक्युलरवाद के कोलाहल में दबा दी गई थी। धर्मनिरपेक्षता के  नेहरूवादी दृष्टिकोण ने इन दोनों देशों में हिन्दुओं को लुप्त प्रजाति बन दिया है। अमेरिका जो भारत की धार्मिक स्वतंत्रा  लिए जरूरत से ज्यादा चिंता दिखाता है ,वह पाकिस्तान और बांग्लादेश के हिन्दुओं के प्रति नेत्रहीन हो जाता है। ......

Feeling divinity in each and every particle of nature and creating harmony among nature and human beings is the very essence and genesis of the INDIAN CULTURAL HERITAGE
. May this heritage blossom and fill the world with the fragrance of spirituality in tune with nature. That is sustainable development.

नौमी तिथि मधु मास पुनीता । सुकल पच्छ अभिजित हरिप्रीता ॥

राम जन्म की हार्दिक बधाई ।

राम शब्द को बुद्धि और तर्क से नहीं समझा जा सकता है। जिसे वेद ने नेति नेति कह कर सम्बोधित किया वह श्रद्धा, विश्वास, सत्य ,प्रेम और करुणा से समझा जा सकता है। प्रभु राम ने निजी स्वार्थो को राष्ट्र प्रेम के आरे नहीं आने देने का अतुलनीय सन्देश पूरे विश्व को दिया। धन्य है और पुण्य है भारतवर्ष की भूमि जहाँ रामायण के रूप में हमें जीवन जीने की संजीवनी मिली।

राम चरित जे सुनत अघाहीं । रस बिसेष जाना तिन्ह नाहीं ॥
जीवन मुक्त महामुनि जेऊ । हरि गुन सुनहिं निरन्तर तेऊ ॥

 जय श्री राम 

Increasing the propinquity between the Haves and Haves Not and incorporating chain connection between the advantaged and disadvantaged is the true foundation of social harmony and social justice. Human Rights + Human Values= Human Emancipation. The equanimity between different sections of the society and common social conscience is what Dr. Ambedkar wanted to establish and we must perpetuate his ideals. 

Fulfilling social responsibilities and expressing social solidarity is the duty of not just the state social organisations and common masses but also of the Corporates and the celebrities. The Kollam tragedy and the drought in Maharashtra are very painful. We  should willingly and unitedly extend a helping in the hour of crisis, curtailing some of our extravagances like IPL and other such glamorous activities..... diverting the money and resources involved to the aid of the sufferers.

Expecting a Wind of Change and hoping for the best...strengthening the voice of nationalism in Kashmir  

देशभक्ति का मतलब जमीन  के टुकड़े के साथ प्रेम होना मात्र नहीं है। मानव जहाँ रहता है ,वहां से उसका कुछ लगाव हो ही जाता है ,फिर भी इतने मात्र से देशभक्ति नहीं आती। पुत्र रूप या पुत्री रूप  और माता  रूपी  भूमि के मिलन  से देश की सृष्टि होती है। यही देशभक्ति है ,जो अमर है। इसलिए हमारी राष्ट्रीयता का आधार भारतमाता है  केवल भारत नहीं। बाबा रामदेव ने जो कुछ भी कहा वह पिता रूप में उग्र होकर राष्ट्रभक्ति का सन्देश दिया उनके विचारों पर संदेह करना निर्रथक शुष्क विवादों को जन्म देना है। 

THE CAUSE AND EFFECTS OF INCREASING SUICIDE RATES : a SOCIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS
Michael Sandel in (Liberalism and the Limits of Justice 1982) rightly proclaimed that neo-liberals socially disjointed the nature of the people. He viewed human nature as 'embedded' in a particular time, place and culture. He insisted on creating a 'deeper commonality' informed by 'shared self-understanding' as well as affection.
 In fact the process of such disintegration started in not only in some modern liberal states but its effect is highly evident in our country. The growing impact of open society culture has gripped the nation, spreading social pollution in our country, which is evident in  the increasing crime rate and violence, the widespread drug abuse, the breakdown of family and its social disintegration. As the society is becoming more and more open, it leads to atomistic conception of individual and such socially disconnected individuals are pursuing their so called 'self-appointed goals.Its repercussion..............incidents like the Pratyusha Bannerjee which are going to continue unabated. 

Issuing of fatwa  against  'Bharat Mata Ki Jai' by Darul Uloom Deoband  only shows their acute mental illness and paucity of broad thoughts......cure is only possible through the herbs of Indian culture. We cannot wield absolute freedom especially with regard to national ideals, spirit and ethics.

'Knowledge for Knowledge Sake' and not interested in Action............ is not at all a progressive vision and was the doctrine during the Congress phase, but 'Relevance of Knowledge to satisfy social needs and Action for problem solving'.....is the progressive vision and doctrine of the current ruling party. The emerging 'Cultural Nationalism' discourse is an example, which needs to be understood holistically. Then only can we respect the sanctity and piousness of our Motherland.

हमने किसी संप्रदाय या वर्ग की सेवा का नहीं , बल्कि सम्पूर्ण राष्ट्र की सेवा का व्रत लिया है। सभी देशवासी हमारे बांधव हैं। जब तक हम इन सभी बंधुओं को भारतमाता के सपूत होने का सच्चा गौरव प्रदान नहीं करा देंगे ,हम चुप नहीं बैठेंगे। हम भारत माता  को सही अर्थों में सुजला ,सुफला बनाकर  रहेंगे। वह दशा प्रहरण धारिणी दुर्गा बनकर असुरों का संहार करेगी , लक्ष्मी बनकर जन-जन को समृधि देगी और सरस्वती बनकर अज्ञानांधकार को दूर कर ज्ञान का प्रकाश फैलाएगी। हिन्द महासागर और हिमालय से परिवेष्टित भारतखण्ड में जब तक एकरसता ,कर्मठता समानता , संपन्नता , ज्ञानवत्ता ,सुख और शांति की  सप्त जाह्नवी का पुण्य प्रवाह नहीं पा लेते ,हमारा भागीरथ तप  पूरा नहीं होगा। इस प्रयास में ब्रह्मा ,विष्णु और महेश , सभी हमारे सहायक  होंगे। विजय का विश्वास है , तपस्या का निश्चय लेकर  चलें। ......... दीनदयाल उपाध्याय
 This is called dedication and accountability towards Mother India. Unless and until every citizen residing in  Mother India's lap doesn't take a vow to safeguard the self-respect  and cultural and spiritual heritage of  the nation, we need to keep awakening them to do their duty irrespective of whatever hurdles comes in their way. This contemporary phase of nationalism which is rising without its cultural foundation. It  needs  rejuvenation to prevent the moral downslide.
  

संस्कृति ही राष्ट्र की आत्मा है। राष्ट्र की सांस्कृतिक स्वतंत्रा तो अत्यंत  महत्व की है , क्योंकि संस्कृति ही राष्ट्र के संपूर्ण शरीर में प्राणों के समान संचार करती  है। अतःसंस्कृति की स्वतंत्रा परमावश्यक है , बिना उसके राष्ट्र की स्वतंत्रा निरर्थक ही नहीं टिकाऊ भी नहीं रह सकेगी। भारतीय संस्कृति की पहली विशेषता यह है कि वह संपूर्ण जीवन का , संपूर्ण सृष्टि का संकलित विचार करती है। उसका दृष्टिकोंण एकात्मवादी (Integrated) है। सच्चा सामर्थ्य राज्य में नहीं राष्ट्र में ही रहता है। राष्ट्रीय समाज राज्य से बढ़कर राष्ट्र की आराधना करें। इसलिए जो राष्ट्र के प्रेमी हैं वे राजनीति के ऊपर राष्ट्रभाव का आराधन करते हैं।  राष्ट्र ही एकमेव सत्य है  सत्य की उपासना करना सांस्कृतिक कार्य कहलाता है। राजनीतिक कार्य भी तभी सफल हो सकते हैं ,जब इस प्रकार के प्रखर राष्ट्रवाद से युक्त सांस्कृतिक कार्य की शक्ति उसके पीछे सदैव विधमान रहे।
                   हमर राष्ट्रीयता  भारतमाता है केवल भारत नहीं।   माता शब्द हटा दीजिए तो भारत केवल जमीन  का टुकड़ा मात्र रह जाएगा। इस भूमि का और ममत्व तब आता है , जब माता वाला  संबंध जुडता है यही देश भक्ति है। इस सत्य को हम झुटला नहीं सकते।
               अखण्ड भारत देश की भौगोलिक एकता का परिचायक नहीं अपितु जीवन के भारतीय द्रिस्टीकोण का धोतक है जो अनेकता में एकता के दर्शन करता है। था हमारे लिए अखण्ड भारत कोई राजनीतिक  जो परिस्थिति विशेष में जनप्रिय होने के कारण हमने स्वीकार किया हो बल्कि यह तो हमारे संपूर्ण दर्शन का मूलाधार है। 

'SOCIOLOGY OF KNOWLEDGE' is a systematic attempt to inquire as to how our knowledge is determined, conditioned or distorted by our social background......... Karl Mannheim
 Our thoughts are greatly influenced by our companionship, as well as our social background. This influence is sometimes positive but can also prove to be disastrous. Individualism, communitarianism, materialism, spiritualism etc.... all thoughts pertaining to these are shaped by our company and social background. It is totally up to us whether we retain our originality- of good thoughts, discarding the infected thoughts or let the social influence malign it.

शुभ संकल्पों के साथ राष्ट्रवाद की गूँज

स्वतंत्रता  प्राप्ति के समय  राष्ट्रवाद की गूंज पराधीनता से स्वतंत्रता  की ओर ले जाने का प्रयास था, परन्तु वर्तमान परिदृश्य में, स्वतंत्र भारत में राष्ट्रवाद की गूंज तथा इसका उद्देश्य भारत में  रहने वाले कुछ वैसे भारतीयों को जगाना है जो राष्ट्र प्रेम और राष्ट्रीय दायित्व से विमुख होकर सुसुप्त अवस्था में चले गये हैं। वैसे ही लोगों के बीच राष्ट्रवाद की  नई ऊर्जा का संचार करना अतिआवश्यक हो गया है। राष्ट्र की अस्मिता की रक्षा करना तो बिना किसी भेद भाव के,सभी भारतीयों का परम कर्त्तव्य  होना चाहिए।  इन्हीं  शुभ संकल्पों के साथ राष्ट्रवाद को नई ऊर्जा देने का प्रयास किया जाना एक सकारात्मक पहल  है।

विगत कुछ महीनो से राष्ट्र में शुष्क विवादों की  बेबुनियाद सुनामी आई हुई है। सामाजिक रूप से जागरूक एवं तथाकथित पढ़े लिखे लोगों द्वारा जिस तरह की बातें कही जा रही है , उन शब्दों की चर्चा करना भी राष्ट्र की तौहीन के समान ही होगी और मर्यादा का उल्लंघन होगा। आखिर ऐसी क्या चूक रह गई हमारे संकल्पों और संस्कारों में जो राष्ट्र के अंदर ही राष्ट्रद्रोह का बीजारोपण शुरू हो गया। यह काफी चिंताजनक और विचारनीय है ।   प्रश्नों  के घेरे  में है हमारा इस तरह का कार्यकलाप , जिसका मुल्यांकन करना अतिआवश्यक हो गया है।

हमारी  राष्ट्रीयता का आधार 'भारतमाता ' की परिकल्पना से जुड़ा हुआ है,केवल 'भारत' से नहीं। 'माता' शब्द हट जाए तो 'भारत' केवल जमीन का टुकड़ा मात्र रह जाएगा। इस भूमि का और हमारे बीच जो ममत्व का रिश्ता है वह तब आता है, जब मातृत्व वाला सम्बन्ध जुड़ता है। अतः राष्ट्र का वास्तविक स्वरुप समझने के लिये उसके  मूल तत्व की ठीक से पहचान करने की जरुरत है । जिसके आविर्भाव से राष्ट्र का उदय होता है और  जिसके क्षीण पड़ने से राष्ट्र विनाश  की ओर  अग्रसर हो जाता है। यह मूल तत्व है- 'अध्यात्म आधारित सांस्कृतिक राष्ट्रवाद',  जो हमारी राष्ट्र की धरोहर  है। इसलिये अपनी संस्कृति को बचाना सभी भारतीयों का मूलभूत कर्त्तव्य है । अगर संस्कृति जीवित है तो राष्ट्र सर्वथा सृजन की दिशा मे आगे बढ़ेगा परन्तु अगर हमारे अंदर संस्कृति और संस्करों का क्षय होगा तो विध्वंसकारी शक्तियां हमारे राष्ट्र के अंदर प्रस्फूटित होती रहेंगी। हमारी सत्यनिष्ठा , प्रेम एवं  ऋषियों व  मुनियों के तप और त्याग से सिंचित इस राष्ट्र के कण कण में राष्ट्र प्रेम की अविरल धारा बहती रहे ,इन्ही संकल्पों से हम राष्ट्र को उर्ध्वरोहण की और ले जा सकते हैं ।

अतः हमारे राष्ट्र की  प्रकृति है -' अखंड भारत', खंडित विकृति है। एकता का दर्शन कर उसके विविध रूपों के बीच परस्पर पूरकता को पहचान कर उसका संस्कार करना सांस्कृतिक राष्ट्रवाद का सूचक है।  भारतीय संस्कृति की मुख्य  विशेषता है- सम्पूर्ण जीवन का ,एकात्मवादी दृष्टिकोण  से दर्शन  करना ,टुकड़े टुकड़े में विचार करना तो पश्चिम राष्ट्रवाद की परिकल्पना है।

राष्ट्र के लिए काम करना हमारा धर्म है और प्रत्येक व्यक्ति 'मैं और मेरा' विचार त्यागकर 'हम और हमारा' विचार करके  आगे बढे और राष्ट्र की ही आराधना करे। देश संकल्प ,धर्म और आदर्श के समुच्चय से राष्ट्र बनता है , इन्ही शुभ संकल्पों को लेकर हम आगे बढें  और व्यक्तिगत,दलगत कोई विचार लेकर बढ़ने से राष्ट्र की समुचित प्रगति नहीं हो सकती। राजनीति राष्ट्र के लिये है, राष्ट्र राजनीति के लिए नहीं ।  यदि राष्ट्र का विचार छोड़ दिया जाय ,यानि राष्ट्र की अस्मिता ,सभ्यता संस्कृति को छोड़ दिया जाय तो राजनीति का क्या उपयोग ? राष्ट्र का स्मरण कर अगर कार्य होगा तो सबका मूल्य बढ़ेगा राष्ट्र को छोड़ा तो सब शून्य जैसा ही है।  हम इन्हीं  उच्च आदर्शो को ध्यान में रख राष्ट्रवाद को पुनः नई ऊर्जा दें ।  इन संस्कारों को जागृत करना ही राष्ट्र का संगठन करना है।  

"राष्ट्र के लिए चार बातों की आवश्यकता  होती है - प्रथम भूमिऔर जन, जिसे' देश' कहतें हैं , दूसरी, सबकी इच्छा शक्ति  यानि सामूहिक जीवन का संकल्प। तीसरी एक व्यवस्था जिसे नियम या संविधान कह सकते हैं और सबसे अच्छा शब्द जिसके लियें हमारे यहाँ प्रयुक्त हुआ है , वह 'धर्म ' और चौथा जीवन-आदर्श। इन चारों का समुच्चय यानि ऐसी समष्टि को राष्ट्र कहा जाता है। जिस प्रकार व्यक्ति के लियें शरीर,मन. बुद्धि और आत्मा जरूरी है ,इन चारों को मिलाकर व्यक्ति बनता है , उसी प्रकार देश, संकल्प, धर्म और आदर्श के समुच्चय से राष्ट्र  बनता है।" ..... दीनदयाल उपाध्याय
         स्वतंत्रता  के बाद राष्ट्रवाद की गूंज पुनः राष्ट्र में एक नई ऊर्जा का संचार करेगी और ऐसे सुसुप्त अवस्था में सोएं लोगो में  राष्ट्र प्रेम की भावना को पुनः जागृत करेगी। 

अत्रापि भारतम् श्रेष्ठम् जम्बूद्वीपे  महामुने।
 यतो हि कर्मभूरेषा  हतोन्या  भोगभूम्यः।
अर्थात इस जम्बूद्वीप में भारतवर्ष सर्वश्रेष्ट है, क्योंकि यह कर्मभूमि है इसके अतिरिक्त अन्य देश भोगभूमियाँ है। ..... श्री विष्णुपुराण ११३
For pseudosecularists the echo of ' भारत  माता  की जय' may be hypernationalism but being a true patriot, singing the glory of mother India is our obligation, as she is the one nurturing and sustaining us We must pave way for' 'वसुधैव  कुटुम्बकम ' and ' सर्वे भवन्तु सुखिनः सर्वे सन्तु निरामया '  for the entire world . So we should never correlate our Rashtra with western nationalism which emphasises on BHOG BHOOMI contrary to our SPIRITUAL cum CULTURAL NATIONALISM.

Discourse and Adaptation to innovative ideas keeps every system healthy and moving, as the banal saying goes - A Rolling stone gathers no moss. The policy of reservation needs to be deliberated upon and evaluated. A shift from the archaic policy is a necessity in today's scenario. Empowering the socially backward sections is the solution and not providing "Baisakhi' in the form of reservation.

ओवैसी जैसे लोग  भारत के लिये आस्तीन का साँप सिद्ध हुये हैं। अगर ऐसे विचारों  को पनाह दिया गया तो ये अलगाववाद की नींव मजबूत करके भारत की  संप्रभुता के लियें खतरा पैदा कर सकते हैं। इससे पहलें कि ऐसे विचार वातावरण में जहर फैलाएं और सामजिक माहौल को दूषित करें ,इनका उन्मूलन जरूरी है।   

"फिर डंके पर चोट पड़ी है। मौत चुनौती लिए खड़ी है ।

सभी कालखण्डों में राष्ट्र में दो ध्रुव या दो विपरीत विचारधारायें  विद्मान रही हैँ ।  एक सृजन की और दूसरी विध्वंस की। आज राष्ट्र पुनः इन्ही दो विपरीत ध्रुवों के दहलीज पर खड़ा है।  एक जो सृजनात्मक है और दूसरी विध्वंसकारी है। कांग्रेस आज ऐसी ही  नकारात्मक ऊर्जा का प्रतिनिधित्व करती दिख रही है, चाहे वे गुलाम नबी आज़ाद हों, सोनिआ गांधी या राहुल गांधी हो अथवा जवाहरलालनेहरु विश्वविद्यालय के तथाकथित बुद्धिजीवी वर्ग हो। 'अभिव्यक्ति की स्वतंत्रता' इनकी नकारत्मक ऊर्जा के श्रोत और  साधन बन गए  हैं। लेकिन वे भूल रहे हैं कि सृजन की बुनियाद सवर्था  राष्ट्र को सभी विध्वंस के  तुफानों  से लड़ने के लिए ऊर्जा प्रदान करती है और अंत में विजय उसी की होती है ।  

"त्याग और सेवा ही भारत का आदर्श है, उसी भाव को पुनः जगा देना चाहिए । बाँकी सब आप ही आप ठीक हो जायेगा ।"                         ------ स्वामी विवेकानंद 

Polluted and poisonous intellectualism is mushrooming in educational institutions like JNU. Hearing professor Nivedita Menon reveals the reality, putting a big question marks on their intentions as separatists are flourishing there in such a cordial atmosphere. These traitors are provoking civil society as well as government and it is an admonition for us to establish a hard state, abolish article 370 and set up a stricter clause to enable the govt. take inclement steps against them and punish the agents of balkanisation of India. Safeguarding national unity should be the priority of every active citizen.

 There is no place of rat race for de jure or de facto power in Indian culture .... Just like birds cannot fly with one wing, this age is the age of interdependency. I BOW AND SALUTE to the great Indian women especially those belonging to our martyrs’ family who do not serve the nation ostentatiously, but in disguise, by showing her courage, sacrifice and tolerance even in times of tragedy and crisis.  There are many such women whose sacrifice may be hidden behind the veils of simplicity and sacrifice..........they neither resort to histrionic nor five star culture and silently help, build the nation. They are the real unsung heroes.

 Last but not the least, I would like to reiterate an apposite observation by Vivekanand when he said : “The soul has no sex. The best thermometer to the progress of a nation is its treatment of its women he said adding that images of great Brahmavadinis like MAITREYI and GARGI. The country and nation which does not respect women will never become great now nor will ever in the future.”

Those who heard G.D Bakshi at ZEE news today, in 'Thal thok ke ' must have felt his pain towards the deviation of educational institutions from being patriots to traitors... Long live such patriotic people.......... the nation needs him

 DEUTSCH  appositely described :POLITICAL SYSTEM AS A 'NETWORK OF COMMUNICATION CHANNELS'
 .....Ideas are never formed in a 'closed circuit'........they need input, output, a feedback mechanism as well as communication channels. The same is necessary for healthy  expansion of views. If ideas are formed in closed circuit then that would be baneful......... CONGRESS and the LEFT being an epitome, at this juncture .Political and Social systems flourish only in the form of an open system. This is the best mechanism for an all round amelioration.

INDIAN POLITY needs a renaissance.....in its value system and ethics. This can only be achieved through the aid of the real political analysts......those who are the real supporters of the cultural ethos and not of Macaulean legacy.

There are very few intellectuals in the contemporary polity who really value the Indian culture. The polity has a great need for those people who value it, to come forth, not as POLITICAL ACTORS but as IDEOLOGUES who will carry forwards, the legacy of the great propounders of cultural nationalism.

 This Renaissance should be based on RELEVANCE, ACTION,  PROBLEM -SOLVING AND CRISIS MANAGEMENT...... that represents a shift of focus from strict METHODOLOGICAL ISSUES to a greater emphasis on  PUBLIC RESPONSIBILITIES and PUBLIC PROBLEMS.

 John Rawls was really right when he emphasized on a ' chain connection ' between the most advantaged and the least advantaged individuals in a social setting.   Those who value the ground realities must remain connected to this thought.

Ralph Miliband said: "CONFLICT IS NOT ONLY CIVILIZED, BUT ALSO CIVILIZING. IT IS NOT ONLY MEANS OF RESOLVING PROBLEMS IN A PEACEFUL WAY, BUT ALSO OF PROVIDING NEW IDEAS, ENSURING PROGRESS, ACHIEVING EVER-GREATER HARMONY, AND SO ON. CONFLICT IS "FUNCTIONAL ", A STABILIZING RATHER THAN A DISRUPTING FORCE." ............... He was right. Every conflict gives birth to a new learning, clear or disguised and rings the warning bells, urging us to remain wary . The role of the present opposition has been the same...........to show how power hunger can lead to utter disrespect of  values and principles...even of the nation's mandate and ettiquetes of the Parliament. They should be given a befitting lesson as they have taken the popular support they get, however little, for granted. It is high time that they curb their histrionic as it is doing nothing but impeding the nation's progress.

Popper in his book 'The open society and its enemies' had vehemently supported the theory of piecemeal social engineering (theory of gradual or incremental or evolutionary change) .
Explaining piecmeal engineering he writes that it is "the method of searching for and fighting against the greatest and most urgent evils of society, rather than searching for , and fighting its greatest ultimate good."
The Democratic mandate bestowed to the present govt. in the last Lok Sabha election is the reflection of his views as the electorate is doing its best to prevent the power-hungry, power addicted from usurping the reins of the country.............through piecemeal social engineering.......really a befitting reply to the evil designs of the Left and Congress......

Lenin, wrote in 'The State and Revolution'  "PARLIAMENT IS GIVEN UP TO TALK FOR A SPECIAL PURPOSE- OF FOOLING THE 'COMMON PEOPLE'
 Such an  inspiring line for the left (and Congress) ......just what they are doing in the Parliament. Seems that Lenin has passed on his legacy to them......is'nt it?

गर्व है हमें अपने राष्ट्र की संस्कृति पर जहाँ प्रभु राम ने राष्ट्र प्रेम की  महिमा का अमर सन्देश दिया। राष्ट्र की अस्मिता की रक्षा के लिए निजी स्वार्थो के त्याग का विलक्षण उदहारण दिया।  धन्य है भारतवर्ष जहाँ की  धरती का कण कण हमें  त्याग और तप का सन्देश देती है, जहाँ अहम सर्वथा गौण है। 

Very progressive Budget, liberating from the policy of 'MAIN AUR MERA'. It isn't just for the lavish but also for the poor........ which would not have been possible for  those who are unacquainted with the ground realities, like our erstwhile UPA govt.  This Budget is village friendly ,Farmer friendly, Infrastructure friendly and above all student friendly, promoting inquisitive mindset in addition to introduction of numerous new initiatives.                                                                                     

प्रत्येक व्यक्ति 'मैं ' और 'मेरा ' विचार त्यागकर 'हम ' और 'हमारा ' विचार करें। वक्तिगत दलगत या वाद्गत कोई विचार लेकर चलने से प्रगति नहीं हो सकती। राजनीती आखिर राष्ट्र के लिए ही है। यदि राष्ट्र का विचार छोड़ दिया , यानि राष्ट्र की अस्मिता ,उसके इतिहास ,सभ्यता को छोड़ दिया तो राजनीती का क्या उपयोग ?
 देश , संकल्प , धर्म और आदर्श के सम्मुचय से राष्ट्र बनता है।

  They are the real patriots who sacrifice their lives  teeming with dedication and devotion, for the natio . Their vision is not confined to their views but they, through their simplicity lead a life as per  the ideals of Indian culture. But alas! we talk of divinity ,spirituality, cultural ethos but we never follow it. For contemporary polity devotion to oneself is first but society and nation last as we have visualised both in Left and Congress. 

There is vaccum in our polity ........of sacrifice and selflessness. There is an obnoxiously prevalent dominance of individualism,opportunism and nepotism.  The contemporary ideologue lacks the vision of Golwalkar, Deen Dayal Upadhyay,Savarkar and others. Presently, their vision is only utilized superficially, for attaining limelight and glamour.This is nothing but disrespect towards their views. The spirit of sacrifice for nation as was in the blood of Rajguru, Chandrashekhar,and other freedom fighters is hardly seen except in our brave soldiers  .
Doing something for the nation calls for total dedication and selflessness but it is negligible, if any in the Congress and the Left, wherein MYSELF comes first, Party second and nation last.

वे कैसे बुझदिल रहे होंगे  जो,,,,,,माँ दुर्गा पर टिप्पणी   और विश्लेषण करते हैं , माँ भारती  का आँचल मैला करके उनकी तौहीन करते हैं   , जिनके  अश्रु वीर सैनिको के कफ़न पर प्रवाहित न हुए ,जो संसद की गरिमा को बार बार  ठेस पहुचाते हैं  और इन सबको वे अभिव्यक्ति  की स्वतंत्रा और अपना सामर्थ्य समझ रहे हैं । ... धिक्कार  है ऐसे बुझदिलों  पर जो विध्वंस को अपनी राजनीतिक सत्ता की तितिक्षा को पूर्ण करने का हथियार बना रहे है अगर सामर्थ्य का प्रदर्शन  ही करना है तो सृजन की  बुनियाद तो रखना सीख लें । 

Hasn't our politics ,society and education system lost the spirit and direction of values,humanism senstivity and the will to fight for a worthy cause?
Society has forgotten its values and its repurcussion.............various incidents like the MURTHAL INCIDENCE.

 Education system is no longer fulfilling its true objective- that of incorporating values in everyone's lives and its  repurcussion.....INSTEAD OF FIGHTING FOR THE RIGHTEOUS CAUSE  AND OUR NATION,  OUR STUDENTS STANDING AGAINST THE NATION. Suicide episodes of Rohith Vemula,Lokesh Mishra and others.
       
 Politics has also lost its values ,ideals,  ethics an its repurcussion....DECLINING WORK CULTURE IN PARLIAMENT AND POLITICS OF OPPORTUNISM.

 Where does our nation stand, in midst of such a crisis? This very sensitive question must be in the hearts of every true Indian. 

राष्ट्र की अस्मिता को अगर कोई खंडित और प्रदूषित करने और राष्ट्र की संस्कृति से द्वेष  करने का प्रयास  करें  तो उसका उत्तर भी रूद्र रूप में ही मिलना चाहिए जैसा कि  संसद भवन में देखा गया।  एक ओर  भारत की सांस्कृतिक राष्ट्रवाद  सर्वकल्याणकारी शिव का रूप है तो दूसरी ओर राष्ट्र की  अस्मिता और संस्कृति से शत्रुता करने वाले के लिए  है रूद्र रूप भी है।  हमारी सांस्कृतिक राष्ट्रवाद का उद्घोष ही  है "वीर भोग्या  वसुन्धरा "

From every profession we expect different attitude and its becomes our psychology. When a Teacher Academician or even a Politician lacks DECENCY, GRAVITY in their words and actions and in their attitude its really creates chaos in the society  as we are currently realizing. They are the role models for society and when they try to act  dramatically like film stars, with no decency and gravity it looks disgusting. Parliamentary ethics and moral code of conduct must be followed by elected representatives of people vis-a vis a teacher or  a academician should not violate the ethics of their profession.

DECENCY, GRAVITY AND MORAL CODE OF CONDUCT  IS THE VERY ASSET OF TEACHERS, ACADEMICIANS AND ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES OF PEOPLE which should reflect in their WORDS, ACTIONS,  ATTITUDE AND BEHAVIOUR. If violated its repurcussion would lead to impurities in the society.
