Before I could think and write about some issue, the recent blasts in Bangalore and Ahmedabad took away my attention. I was reading a nice book on Mahatma, and was trying to understand him better. Why? Because we humans are always logical. Without a reason and explaination we do not accept things and we dont even hesitate to criticise them. Various school of thoughts support Gandhi ji for his Ahimsa Peace and Satya. .. while some do oppose it, and favor the Bhagat Singh style.
I am not interested in focusing and finding who is responsible for the recent blasts. There are agencies to do so and tell us whether it's terrorist or the politicians. I am just trying to understand that what was dreamt, and what has happened. Just sit and think for a while, and try to realize this.......
A lawyer, gets triggered to fight for social status of Indians abroad and later on move upto the fight for independence. Without any support, any help, he initiates the Non violence movement, understands the power of Sacrifice, Tapa, Worship, commitment, Courage, and challenges an established 250 years + kingdom. The British Raj.
He works hard and hard for it, stick to his principles, sacrifice his personal and family life, and make the Britishers think of quitting India. He canvase a beautiful picture of an independent nation, breathing in fresh air, flying and scaling heights, ideologies based on Satya, Ahimsa, and Shanti. A country as a role model for the rest of the world. But what did he get at the end of all this. We try hard to achieve something, and if we fail to get the desired result, we panic, feel sad. Gandhi ji never ever would have dreamt of the India which prevails today.
History says he died in Jauary 1948. I say his soul died the day when a separate country for Muslims was demanded. His heart would have sobbed that day. The civil war which broke in 1946 and continued for almost 2 years shattered Gandhi's dream to pieces. Do you still want to ask how did he feel?
Things changed, political, social, economical.. all the scenarios of the country changed. We gave new faces to the country and finally named it "The Incredible India" I dont know who wants to take the credit for the development of the country. Was it liberalization, good politics or population which made India a developing economy, but I am sure that Gandhi ji would not have asked for any credits. In fact till his last breath, he was working for the betterment of the situation. You will be surprised to know the fact, when the political independence was given on 15th August 1947, Gandhi ji was not present for the flag hoisting. He never wanted freedom at the cost of his own people's blood.
HATS' off to such a great soul who had the courage to do something great in life, not to become a Mahatma, but to be a better human, not to become the father of the nation, but to serve the society and nation. I am sure those of us who are not effected with the terror happening around, would have felt bad and stopped thinking, Old memories of any such instances have faded off from each and every mind.
There are people dying around. We are social human beings. Let's prove that we are.
Next time you waste time criticising who did it, discussing a movie, commenting on cricket, pulling down politicians, smoking or drinking, hanging out for no reason, think about it....--- YOU MIGHT BE STANDING ON A BOMB.
In fact all of us are standing on some bomb or the other. I request all of you .... "Let's diffuse it before it claim our lives!!!!" Don't wait for some one to come and help you. It might be too late. It's now or never
