Politics
have no relation to morals
Once
Niccolo Machiavelli said, "Politics have no relations to morals."
It's not true only in politics but also in every sector of human life. If we
study to the Mahabharat war what the so-called sages did to the youngest
warrior Abhimanyu. Why the greatest warriors and the so-called Guru killed
Abhimanyu trapping him in a vicicious circle. It remains regrettable for ages.
In the same way, Ekalavya who wanted to learn archery couldn't get guru. He
learned it by making self made guru Dronacharya. He made the image of guru and
learned secretly while Pandavas were learning archery. He was better than
Arjuna. But to make him weaker, Dronacharya asked his thumb for Gurudakshina.
It is unjustified deed that Dronacharya did. Not only in politics but also in
teaching professions have no relations to moral. If we judge the Supreme Court,
police force, army, teaching, and other sectors, immorality is being fostered
in the so-called leaderships.
The
honest and weaker ones who are able to raise unheard voice believe that every
dog has his day and collect strength and support to them. They believe that
truth triumphs in the end and compel the culprit realize what they performed earlier
was immoral. They seemed as if they were the leaders of all but when they had
to do, they couldn't take the side of justice.
Such bad activities they involved in the past leave them live in regret
the days ahead. They cannot live their comfortable life in future. The misdeed
they did during the life haunt them every second when they face hardship. In
every trial of the righteousness where they can do is being judged by the
unseen being showing the way. After the Mahabharat war the sage Uttanka met
Krishana who was returning to Dwarka. He asked Krishna about the news. Then he
informed him about the destruction of human
lives in the Kurukshetra war. Uttanka was agitated and was about to curse
Krishna for not bringing about a compromise between the cousins Pandavas and
Kauravas. He decided to curse Krishna. At the moment Krishna
told him that he had tried his best to control war but he couldn't and it
became his compulsion. Then Krishna
showed him his divine vision. Later he surrendered him. But in the present
world if any tries to reveal the truth to the so-called leaders and others try
their best to hide the reality and do what they like. Seeing such a black cloud
hovering above own head, should we believe in them or not? Questions rose.
Moreover, they feel proud for being leaders for not being
done anything else for the betterment of his followers. But our Hindus myths
say if anyone who surrenders to the gods, they save him from any hardship. But
here, they feel proud for not doing anything else. Every teacher has his right
to get promotion both in power and skill but the big brothers block them. What
a shame to know that they are being victims themselves for not performing their
own skill in time. They blame others but don't study and sharpen their
knowledge as time passes. Ultimately,
they don't get promotion and blame to other. Indeed, the culprits commit crimes
everywhere but it's true that everywhere culprits cannot reside. Everyone
should try his best to be stronger than the culprits.
It's necessary to know that clothes do not make the man.
Clothes may be more or less similar to the lion's skin. His real identity is
hidden but the clothes hide how he is. Therefore, it will be unfair to judge anyone
else where he is or what position he has or how he is behaving to his well
wishers and the opponents. A good one tries to see the equality and gives his
verdict for both according to his performance. If the one who neglects his duty
and responsibility and works for his own betterment, how can he handle the
institution? It has to be judged before giving the responsibilities. The
concerned ones should not turn his deaf ears. If he doesn't listen, there are
many who can listen to his suppressed voice believing that every dog has his
day.
It's true that no one should bite the hands that feed
him. But it is frequently happening in the human civilization and turns the
society to the chaos. No one has been able as tolerant as Gautama Buddha. He
was able to listen to the words poured against him. He was already familiar
that silence is more powerful than the weapons we have. Your weapons can kill
but the silence may quest for knowledge and at the end it compels the weapons
down. Winston Churchill opined " In war you can only be killed once , but
in politics, many times." How strong sense it has. It's not only in
politics but in other sectors of human communities mostly the subalterns are
being killed in many times.
Human is full of illusion. Those who don't have that
power but boast themselves that it was carried for their betterment are totally
regrettable. If they could they know that blood is thicker than water. How they
could give that opportunity to others. They should not forget that those who got
something may be the post or jobs were the outcome of their own struggle.
Saying such a silly remarks to the general and trying to prove their worth is
less human activity. Therefore, the concerned ones should know who they are and
what they are supposed to do. It's a good job to realize mistake and asks for
pardon. More than this, it's better to be safe
than sorry.
