ANNA HAZARE: THE BIGGEST INDIAN FOOL.(READ THE ARTICLE COMPLETELY BEFORE YOU COMMENT)
My first request is for someone who without applying their rusty minds, just by reading the title of this article, bring out their baseless patriotism to rush over me for writing so, I need them to keep their ideology in their pockets and find a useful space, if there is anything, in their minds to read, if not try to keep away from these words. Indeed great men, every great man who was born, or who will be born in this great nation would definitely tag this FOOL to their names. The greatest fools.
Long back when I was in schooling, a peep into my social studies text books took me to the conclusions, how any independence can be misused, if given to a group of fools. We are a great nation, we have more than 3000 castes to divide us, and we have more than 20 religions to distinguish ourselves. We have more than 30 political parties to think for each and every citizen of us, we have more than thousand richest potential individuals roaming in the streets; we have more than a million engineers produced every year to serve our country. We have some of the richest hotels to dine; we have large number of schools to study. We have a cable television of more than 500 channels being broadcast-ed with the news. We have everything a country needs and also what an ideal nation doesn’t need at all.
When Mandela fought for elimination of apartheid, the whites never dreamt that the blacks too have their blood in red color. From the scrap to everything that is there now, a man fought for the people, for the nation with a vision and attitude, he became a leader, he became a path. He still today tells in the middle of night, if asked, that every individual’s inner fire is what that created the actual movement, I am just driver, I am just a leader, I led them to a correct place. And at the end of the day, they won the battle, not against any political party, not against any country, but it was against a human miscalculation. It’s because every one who supported him, who stood by him and who followed him had the same vision and attitude he had. That is where a leader needs to focus. He or she is a bauble if there is no clarity in what his or her army is fighting for. He or she should have such men, such people to fight against an enemy, with each and everyone having the coherence. And that is what that makes any war a barbarous one, still a winning one. That is what a real independence, if gained, really means.
Today we have a nation, which fought for the same kind of independence for about a couple of centuries, not everyone knew the hardness in it ,for it can never be recorded nor written, lying pale and dead in the poison
of its own tentacles. The story of any war cannot be stored in any academic text book; it can be experienced only when you have such an opportunity to fight for some really good cause. And today we have the same nation crumpled and timid. Who should be blamed, who should be reasoned for this drastic inner change from the brave to the slave? This question is an old one and the ones being questioned are even too old to the question itself. Every one of them had answered it, or even trying to answer the question to this day. The medium has changed, from newsletters to social networks, but not the mind sets. And might be the one who is reading this , must be also having an answer ready for this question, with high competitive exam English grammar embedded in it, he or she gets ready to answer this stupid, idiotic question that is there every where and every time in a nation like this. Who should be blamed, who should be reasoned? Two years ago, I found many people who until then don’t know the meaning of MLA, started applying for a voter card, only for the reason to vote for a new candidate who stopped acting in his films and got ready for politics. Every one of them just listened and followed their inner manic feelings towards the actor, through different parameters like caste and films etc, but never thought for a second, whether the man is a correct one to lead them. That is where the selection of a leader makes a huge difference in the macro scales. We got the realization that the fellow man, who was fighting along with us against the British, was a Muslim, only after we got freedom. We until then hugged him and promised the nation to be friends for ever. All was ended when we had our plate full and lot of time to think about our actual faces. We lost, everyone lost in the battle of creating ourselves. Not everyone had a faint idea, who hyped the cricket match between India and Pakistan as political war that it is like as foolish as following a blind man. I know it’s too late to change things; I am just a part of the journey. The law of inertia fails here. Internal forces never create a change in motion of a body. The final and only solution is to come out of the box and give a push to the system. That is what the old man was striking for, a few days ago. He is Anna Hazare. He is same as Mandela. The latter fought for elimination apartheid; the former is fighting for elimination of corruption, a same kind of illness. The leaders are the same in the fronts of attitude and vision, the only one who differed are the warriors behind them. The former one missed in having a good army, an army which thinks equally with him, an army which fights beyond a single day hunger strike, an army which understands the actual reason for the battle, an army which continues to fight even after he dies. He doesn’t have such an army with him to win the battle. Not at least one.
The actual fight is always on the dust, not in the chip.
He must be struggling for years to make the government and the people to connect to what he is dreaming of a non-corrupted nation. He has men behind him, enough to fight against it. But what missed here is the enemy itself. He has a sphere to throw at and sword to sly down, but he has no definite enemy to fight with. Because he is not knowing whom to fight with. Is it with the people or the leaders? Should it be with the people, for they elect the leaders or with the leaders for they never respected the nation, both are equally unclean before him. From a rocket launching to a simple cricket match, they involve themselves to fill the accounts. Whom to fight with? Never had an answer for this. He has no other go other than to sit along with the most corrupt guys and discuss how to end the corruption. Or he even can’t believe the people who support him and sleep in peace thinking that the present generation has such a power to fight without a leader like him. From the nation which once had people ready to fast unto deaths, to the nation which is now having smart people who skip a meal a great cause, just a meal in supporting this gentle man, the leaders like him are losing faith in their own friends. He even had people who carried candles shouting slogans, which hopefully lasted until the candle had enough wax to melt. His mission was agreed by a government only with a fear that if not supporting the movement, they might lose the next elections, like the way it responded to every scam done by their own men. Fast onto death reached to fast for a day. And after that, only the idle gods must know, because in India, every judgment is accounted directly to the hell and the punishment is in the next birth, not even in the Supreme Court. Until then we spend the lives seeing and listening to great epics how to fight against the evil. In some breaks we support to encourage men like Mr. Anna Hazare to battle alone in the arena for himself.
Apartheid and corruption are same. It went deep into our lives that we can’t help ourselves to find an alternative to bribing. All we need is to understand the basics of it. Corruption cannot be eradicated, but can be reduced to the ground levels. This is the ultimate truth. Absolute power always gives absolute chance to misuse it. This is the law of nature and mankind. We, instead of changing the nature laws, try to find where it is present in each and every part of our daily life. If needed, we should rebel. It starts from your house, inside you. Are we just trying to manipulate even the simple patriotism in us for the reason to be focused? Are we the same in words and actions? Are we just filling the great movements with the idiocy in us? Do we think we can really fight in this war? Are we ready to come to streets and think parallel to our leaders? Do we think we really know how to fight? Do we think we know what the great men dream about the nation? Do we think our baseless patriotism is worthy enough to be a great weapon? Do we think we have the same boiling in us what Bhagath Singh had when he was beaten by the English? Do we think the nation has that unity, even we have some nation raiding us now, and can we bring back our freedom back? Do we think the citizens are the same as they were in the past? The leaders are the same, not the citizen. Today they have option to fly and settle in other nations. They can just be as fine as feather, even when the whole nation falls down. When the nation is empty, there is no chance in questioning the one who is eating it. Do we need this fight right now?
If every such question can be answered, only then we can see our enemy, the corruption. Until then we are just ready for war, not knowing who the enemy is. Great men burst after a long observation and patience. They just don’t do like a crazy man who does it for attention. We need to know their mind and induce the same thinking into ourselves and we need to find one such fire in ourselves before we support someone like them. Until then any mere support is just like a drama. Just a fruitless activity. Just a mirage. Just imagine. A leader always needs a warrior who has the same intensity he has. He needs the warrior to help him to complete the battle. And if leader finds someone who just goes by words and decorates himself with useless love for the nation, the leader equally becomes a fool at the end of the day, preparing him for a big fight; under an illusionary support. Find a leader inside you before you support another leader. The leader needs nothing more than that. Until then the leader is the biggest fool.
I pledge I will find a leader in me whenever the nation needs one. Are you ready? All you need is a simple understanding, who the enemy is and how to fight against, nothing more. I am happy for the old man’s struggle to clean his nation. He is just a lonely leader in this battle.
I again say, the actual fight happens only on the dust, not in the chip.
