Politics and celebrities; Indian citizens and democratic functioning

Politics and Celebrities


In India elections can be fought and won on freebies, caste, religious reservations or celebrities. Ideology or commonsense has no place and role to play. That is why celebrities are finding it easier to enter politics by their popularity and nothing else. They lack in leadership qualities, do not know any thing about administration like hereditary and region-, caste-, religion-, selfishness-centered ordinary politicians.

In India poverty is rampant for various reasons and one of them is the rule by inefficient and hereditary politicians as leaders of major national and regional political parties since independence 70 years back.

These celebraties have no idea of legislation, executive, judiciary and cooperation among these mutually checking constitutional institutions. Every one has been playing with Indian constitution and its sanctity has been gradually eroded by various popular leaders.

These celebrities after getting elected want to be hegemonic towards every other constitutional authorities and institutions and want then to attend to their whims and fancies.

Mr. Ramachandran, Rama Rao, Jayalalita have been dictatorial and in their hurry to eradicate poverty resorted to popular politics which ruined the financial, administrative and economic health of the respective states.
Popular politics, freebies and hurry to eradicate poverty by hook or cruck will not succeed; this has been proved many times in these 70 years both at national and regional levels.
Only efficient administration with an ideology will help eradicate poverty. Nothing else. No one else.
So the entry of another celebrity from south India will not be different. So will be in Andhrapradesh; any celebrity trying to enter electoral politics will be of no help.
Ruling a nation and running administration are not so simple and incapable people only degrade administration.
Love for poor need not be live for all citizens. Any administrator must take into account needs of all citizens and just not "poor" and underprivileged.
A nation grows, develops and shines by sound economic, administrative and objective policies.
Popular politics and hereditary leaderships are bane to Indian politics. Indian economically and financially poor citizens can be helped only by encouraging them to participate in nation-building and never by making them beggars to alms of political parties.
Any leadership from celebrities and or inefficient hereditary - sons, daughters, sons-in-law, wives, companions will not be able to deliver any useful results.

Even though time and tide wait for none, we can hold time still in the company of our near and dear. Then only bliss is experienced without reference to past or future. We merely live in the present. To cultivate and be able to live in the present is the essence of all spirituality; such a living gives us serenity and we live life delightfully and delightedly.

Modern women and men are putting themselves in impossible situations and are punishing each other unable to handle the piquant situations.

I see many people admiring Sanskrit language but their interest ends with admiration. None comes forward to learn the language and enjoy the works in Sanskrit.

Then another set of people exists; that set of people always are against Sanskrit language despite its scientific construction and great works available in it in relation to all human endeavors, just because, in their limited knowledge and hatred towards a particular religion and community, denounce and dismiss it without spending any time going through it and its legacy.
Both types of people are headache and nu-sense to society and its harmony.
*********
Citizens of our nation and society seem to be solely rights' conscious; and not at all duty-conscious. So many right's activists are available; but none to instruct about our duty towards nation, society, fellow human beings and living beings.
A human being learns by imitation and mimics one's behavior observing around.
When no role models are available during education process or in society except for cricketers, cine artistes, celebrities of all hues, the society will suffer from atrocities.
Merely expressing sympathy and solidarity is of no use.
Empathy will not solve problems.
We must also be aware of human animal natures and take care not become an easy prey to animal-natured persons.
Popular expressions are not realistic guidelines.
Wish ancient Indian wisdom is used extensively in the formation, cultivation, nurture and termination of human relationships. Menorah women, none is safe before hardened criminals, corrupt politicians or animal-natured persons.
Let us be realistic and deal things as animal nature versus human, humane behaviour; not as a problem between cruel men and sensitive and gullible women.
As long as crimes are divided as against women and men, the problem can not be properly tackled and solved.
All men are not demons.
Situations also create "animals".
And the rest innocent and vulnerable.
Let us be aware of our limitations, rights and duties-cum-responsibilities.

India is a nation of diversities in social structure, religion, region, culture, language, complexes, no union or intersection of social, communal and intra- and interreligious sets.
Added to it selfish politicians in the guise of social justice are widening the cracks into wider gaps transforming society and nation into disjointed set. Citizens in the form of voters are helping the leaders to keep the gaps and further widen them.
Though this is a usual lamenting, the continuance of such a situation is completely ruining the idea of India as a nation.
So this share.

I do not know whether Lord Vishnu is superior to Lord Siva or Lord of one religion is superior to Lords of other religions. But I am taught and read that Divinity is one and names are different. Names are our choice and the essence is the Divinity they represent, contain and hold.

ఈనాడు ప్రపంచంలో ఇతరులను మారమని చెప్పడం ఎక్కువై పోయింది. అందరకూ అన్ని విషయాలలోను పరిజ్ఞానం అపరిమితం అయిపోయింది. అద్దంలో ఎవరూ చూసుకోవడం లేదు. చేతి వేళ్ళు ఇతరుల లోపాలను ఎత్తి చూపడంలో మునిగి పోయి ఉన్నాయి.
మతము, సంస్కృతి, నాగరికత, సిధ్ధాంత గరిమ లేని వారు అన్నిటిని, అందరిని దుయ్యబట్టడం వాడుక అయింది.
ధర్మమునకు, ధర్మసూక్ష్మమునకు తేడా తెలియని ఆధునిక ఛాందసుల, అజ్ఞానుల ఉనికి తామర తంపరగా పెరిగి పోయింది. భాషాపటిమ, పాండిత్యం, వివిధ శాస్త్ర, విజ్ఞాన, జ్ఞాన పరిచయము లేక, ఏ విధమైన రామణీయకత తెలియని హృదయములు కలిగి జ్ఞానాంధత తో గుడ్డిలై వదరుతున్నారు. పంది పన్నీటిని మెచ్చలేదు కదా!
ఇన్ని తరముల జ్ఞానము, అనుభవములను అవగాహన లేక విపరీత వ్యాఖ్యానములను చేస్తూ విజ్ఞుల లెక్కచేయక విష మనస్కులై ఉన్నారు.
ఇన్ని నాళుల ఇంతటి సంస్కృతిని, నాగరికతను, విజ్ఞతను, ఇంగితాన్ని ఉపయోగించుకోలేని దుస్థితిలో ఉన్నాము. మేధావుల నిర్వచనమే మారిపోయి అడ్డమైన వాడు అడ్డంగా మాట్లాడే నేటి స్థితి మార్చే స్థిత ప్రజ్ఞులు సంఘానికి అవసరం. అందరినీ కలుపుకు పోయే అందరి వారు వెలవాలి. సంఘం వారిని ప్రోత్సహించాలి. లాభపడాలి. మరొక దారి లేదు.
శుభం భూయాత్! సర్వే జనా: సుఖినో భవంతు!
