Poverty alleviation requires NGOs yes Nonchalant/ Natural
ways of Generous Offering
from our purse, our hearts, our
minds, our societies etc not necessarily to be operated only through funded operations- even the
ones without ulterior motives- which mostly resort to short term remedies in all situations.
1.
I
think basically the issue of poverty involves lot of things which on the whole
is a bit complex in structure and therefore more complicated to find any quick
fix or universal or homogenized solution.
2.
It
is also an issue on which no one can afford to be indifferent even for their
own selfish reasons because the presence and absence of poverty obviously
manifests through pleasantness or problems for life.
3.
Mere
preaching and pep talks may not alleviate poverty but can at least motivate
many to work towards alleviating poverty.
4.
Sensationalizing
it or subduing it with catchy slogans has not and is not going to offer
solutions.
5.
Starting
from lack of material resources to uncontrolled population to manipulative
politics -which itself involves multiple factors -need to be taken into
consideration along with dealing with lobbies which try to make a living out of
or make a business out of poverty and who prioritize projecting and subtly
perpetuating poverty for their own survival or identity.
6. Any proposal/project/plan of poverty
alleviation has to take into consideration the following aspects as well i.e.
the situation/context and the intensity or degree of poverty.
7. So along with compassion
comprehensive action plan has to be put in place without any hidden agenda or
ulterior motive, the two predominant factors of most funded ventures in the
name of poverty alleviation, wherein the poverty alleviation is an incidental
happening to achieve a wider or larger or ultimate goal with masked intentions.
8. Coming to the question of compassion.
How can it emerge? Why it has not even surfaced adequately after centuries of
preaching by various religions and many good souls. For compassion to emerge we
need, in the first place, some sort of education system and then ensure that it
is embedded with humane values which are manifested in our daily lives.
9. We need to create conducive
atmosphere for peace and harmony, not a mere verbal pronouncement but as a real
situation. Is it possible to have that? If not why?
10. We must ensure to minimize the
negative impact of excessive emphasis on identity orientation in everything
starting from religion, culture, region, language, political ideology, economic
system etc and a fanatical extension of this leads to less tolerance and lack
of compassion.
11. Poverty alleviation requires NGOs yes Nonchalant/ Natural ways
of Generous
Offering from our purse, our hearts,
our minds, our societies etc not necessarily to be operated only through funded
operations- even the ones without ulterior motives- which mostly resort to
short term remedies in all situations.
12. Recapitulating the issues raised
broadly value based education system, dealing with identity without denying it,
doing away with institutions and individuals who make a business out of
poverty, creating an atmosphere of peace and harmony etc and most of these are inter
connected or interrelated.
14. Identity –its whole gamut
“All of us have our own inner fears, beliefs,
opinions. These inner assumptions rule and govern our lives. A suggestion has
no power in and of itself. Its power arises from the fact that you accept it
mentally.”
― Joseph Murphy, The Power of Your Subconscious Mind
― Joseph Murphy, The Power of Your Subconscious Mind
We must realize that the subconscious mind is
the law of action and always expresses what the conscious mind has impressed on
it. What we regularly entertain in our mind creates a conception of self. What
we conceive ourselves to be, we become.” Grace Speare.
A question of identity
Reactions
Identity and reality
Identity is the result of
fixations
Identity is the result of
getting struck in the steps
Nothing wrong in being proud of
identities and no one needs to hypocritically deny any particular identity.
But then what is reality
New Year with a
New Realization of Reality
Let us be open
Peace and Harmony are defined
indirectly by wanting too much
of same Identity in everyone and everywhere and want of Tolerance
