Poverty alleviation requires a multi-pronged strategy

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.

Also let us remember that Peace and Harmony are defined indirectly by wanting too much of same Identity in everyone and everywhere and want of  Tolerance

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

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.

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.

GENEROSITY AND SELFLESS SERVICE

The Tireless Tyrone??

 (Everybody can be great, because everybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and your verb agree to serve...You only need a heart full of grace, a soul generated by love.) - Martin Luther King, Jr. -

Dear Young minds,

     Friday’s (7-12-12) massive earthquake in north Japan coincided with the announcement of de-recognition of Archery Association of India (AAI) and Indian Amateur Boxing Federation (IABF). The tremors in the corridors of Delhi’s Shastri Bhawan, where sports minister Jitendera Singh made the announcement, rattled the Chautala-Bhanot camp which had earlier defied the dictate of the International Olympic Committee (IOC). This came following suspension of the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) by the International Olympic Committee and provisional suspension of IABF.

     Suddenly we are out of Olympics; our great athletes and sports personnel sim(B)ly cannot participate under our 'Tricolour' (at least as of now) for no fault of theirs but thanks to 'some' mess up in the IOA election process by powers that be. Almost (suddenly again) my mind went back to last years NBC report (a contrasting one) about a millionaire janitor,Tyrone Curry, who single handedly appears to be doing wonderfully well to encourage and promote sports @ his home base Seattle. 

     This guy won over $3.4 million dollars in the Washington State lottery 6 years ago and still spends his dayssweeping the cafeteria floor at Evergreen High School. "I try to make sure it's spotless and it's ready for the kids,' he says, with a smile on his face. After cleaning, he goes off to his second job -- coaching the track and field team. "Ten years ago, I said if I win some money, I'm going to put a track here," Tyrone said, and that's exactly what he did when he gave his boss a check for $40,000.

The quote I have referred above under the header, is an excerpt from Martin Luther King Jr's stirring speech, "The Drum Major Instinct" in which he urges all to find greatness through service and love.

"I would rather be able to appreciate things I can not have than to have things I am not able to appreciate".

 -Elbert Hubbard, author (1856-1915)
