Please do not
credit crooks with the label of intellect.
First why are
we using the wrong label who is an intellectual [1], please we must first differentiate
from academically qualified, theoretically knowledgeable, holding positions of
eminence, well connected, vociferous, much promoted by certain vested interest
groups with clear cut bias because they pander to certain predefined scripts
which are sensational and savored by certain lobbies in the political and
academic circles all over the world.
These people
are good at, pardon me for using the appropriate vocabulary, mental
masturbation of certain select ideas and ideologies where the semen secretes in
high flown vocabulary.
I am
consciously using this vocabulary because they ultimately do not go to create
anything except temporary pleasure like an uncontrollable scratching of an itch.
They attract more addicts to them.
They love not
to bother about polarity principles inherent in nature like good and bad, hot
and cold but try to magnify it as a socio-religio-cultural intentional
discrimination devised to exploit some blab la.
Their ideological
fixation is petrified with their pet identities [2] , their frames of reference
when it comes to perception [3] is putrefied, their prejudices are paid, their inferences
are influenced by undisclosable sources, their intentions are of mala fide and
conclusion are tailor made to please their sponsors.
Most of these
so called intellectuals in India are left leaning, and therefore never learning
anything liberals.
While
polarity principle is inherent in all spheres of life, Some people can never
get rid of the old scripts as those types of stereotypical sloganeering get
sensational attention, mostly in political and religious domains, namely the
slogans on the victim hood versus victor, the poor versus rich, the haves
versus the have-nots, the hero-villain etc.
They
magnify and mutilate to present the polarity as a difference injected to
inflict specific sufferings depending on the targets they want to choose and the result they want to achieve. That's why
poverty is a very rich business and victim hood portrayal is lucrative
ideology. Actually these peddlers of poverty and illiteracy have ensured to
keep poverty intact. Yes a sickening and outdated ideology to be kept in the
attic of a museum of fossil genetic samples but it unfortunately permeates into
political discussions.
I feel there is
lot of wisdom in the following piece which Phenella writes in “The Unwritten
Comedy”.
“To be ignorant of many things is expected
To know you are ignorant of many things is the beginning of wisdom.
To know a category of things of which you are ignorant is the beginning of learning.
To know the details of that category of things of which you are ignorant is to no longer be ignorant.”
On environment
there is a huge deficit of perception and approach as people take extreme
positions without understanding the simple, superb and sublime reciprocal
relationship that we have with the whole environment as we all together are in
the process of evolution.
Unfortunately most
of us are, more so the types of human beings who like to find answers and
solutions only through dry intellectual analysis, fail because we may make
wrong frames of references, inadequate observations, including irrelevant
things and aspects in the process of evaluation etc and presume that we are
super intelligent. [5 &6]
