Excellent but present gen attention span too less & lack patience, hence pls ask our party IT Cell to slice interview into multiple topics, translate in Indian languages & share in WhatsApp, INSTA, FB, TIK TOK with members of RSS, BJP, BMS, VHP, ABVP etc.

PM MODI’s great Interview –IT cell please wake up and do publicity BJP's IT Cell and its publicity wing need to have a very aggressive proactive brand building agenda as the present the IT cell fails to promote the best brand for LEADERSHIP [MODI] and best party [BJP] to rule the country.

BJP IT cell please wake up and try to slice the interview of Lex Fridman with our Hon.PM into multiple topics, translate into all the possible Indian languages and at least share in WhatsApp, INSTA, FB, TIK TOK as IN SHOTS with members of RSS, BJP, BMS, VHP, ABVP etc.

What a wonderful interview from a once in a century great leader who is now leading one of the greatest countries of the world.

He has made the rest of world look up to and connect with greater respect for Bharath's glorious past, India's important presence at present and a potential hope for the future with vital role as a global leader that it may have to play as a great peace maker, emerging superpower and its experience in living in harmony amid colourful variety.

Sanity it is not to indulge in hero-worship but sensibility it is to admire impactful influences worth internalising as take aways.

What a holistic personality with soulful, sensible, simple, humble, high performing in terms of not merely the cliché of contradiction free honesty in thoughts, words and actions but seamless energetic, enthusiastic and synergetic manifestations of the major aspects of life like physical, psychological, emotional, nostalgic, spiritual and social with appropriate actions, accommodative approaches, adequate adjustments and accommodation with passionate involvement, compassionate interactions and dispassionate about the personal glories and places is gratitude to all individuals and institutions responsible for his successful journey of life starting from his mother to teachers to gurus to swamijis to the great institution of RSS. It is a sort of highly matured philosophical attitude with a sensible and practical prioritising based on contextually relevant scientific real humanitarian economic welfare-oriented socialism with an awareness that it can be delivered mostly, if not only, through capitalistic economic development by predominantly private business partnership or Public-Private Participation. These ensure concomitant hospitality towards humanity to live a loveable life at present with a sensitive responsibility to bequeath a liveable planet to the future.

At the same time his awareness, knowledge and experiences at ground level makes him realize and relish the pride in our vast historical and civilizational past which enables nuanced nice diplomatic geopolitical adaptability and navigate through any situation with both poise and panache.

Do we have any popular leader today who is so versatile in the sense in a single interview one could grasp a brief but encyclopaedic range of topics, oceanic depth of understanding, spiritualistic sense of involving the inner spirit like a saint while dealing with external world issues with scientific temperament totally in tune with the prevailing realistic solutions. He explains his anecdotal experiences which are universally testable examples, historic [‘contexts-relevant’] perspectives, fantastic inspirational ideas conveyed in simple language outperforming most motivational speakers or self-help gurus.

One could easily admire A to Z of his attitude, aspirations, actions and achievements.

Aesthetic appreciation wherever it exists. Bureaucratic blocks brought down to bestow beneficial schemes to the people. Collectivistic and constructive processes promoted for country’s progress. Diplomatic dealing with global powers rather than deals with DEEP STATE. Enthusiastic engagement in environmental protection activities. Fantastic flexibility to foray into futuristic tasks. Gigantic governance models geared to gain geopolitical space. Holistic harmonious ways to hitch historic pride with happenings on ground. Immanentistic inherent interconnectedness used to inspire unity. Juristic resolutions through courts to address certain national issues. Kleptocratic kinship kept away. Lunatic luddites of reforms ended up lapping up the benefits. Maieutic methods used for macro-economic developments. Nomistic norms nurtured as a befitting our national ethos. Optimistic operations offering growth opportunities over emphasised. Pacifistic policies promoted as pride of our peace-loving nation. Quixotic and questionable practices and policies were quashed. Realistic reforms and rejuvenation of required radiance to restrict rioters. Synergistic and syncretistic schemes for social harmony of pluralistic society. Technocratic talents toed in to make great tides in technological advancements. Universalistic principles ensconced between nationalism and internationalism. Voluntaristic values used as vestibules between the wealthy with the vulnerable. Welfaristic works given wings to spread far and wide. Xenialistic inhibition free attitudes towards all. Yogistic and ycleptic console help interaction with people on ground. Zeugmatic anti-national, anti-people and anti-growth parties brought to zero.

His interview reflects these quotations aptly-part -4

“In the end nothing less than the whole of everything can be the truth of anything at all”- William James

"The spirit of Advaita is not to keep away from anything, but to keep in tune with everything." - Swami Chinmayananda

“We live in a changing universe, and few things are changing faster than our conception of it”-Timothy Ferris

“There is no tomorrow. There is only a planet turning on its axis, and a creature given to optimistic fancies”-Robert Brault

"Existence consists in the interplay of a plurality of elements whose true nature is indescribable and whose source is unknown. Combinations of these elements instantaneously flash into existence and instantaneously disappear, to be succeeded by new combinations of elements appearing in a strict causality." - Earle Ernst, The Kabuki Theatre

As D.J.Mercier, the Archbishop of Malines has said even “Sound Philosophy sets out from analysis and terminates in synthesis”. Meaning of Life is the result of churning of the outer world by the inner self or the way inner self relates with the outer world in all its multiple manifestations. Everything is part of life and not apart from life and therefore cannot be kept apart for a future date or an assumed future condition or fit into any predetermined concept.

Life is functionally a dynamic energy; visually a multi-faceted splendour; a marvellous mystery which unfolds itself through every one of us at every moment and so on. Therefore, life cannot be either generalized in any manner or simplified into any predefined categories.

Life is never fulfilled with unfulfilled relationships within the family, with others in the society, with the environment, with the many sciences, subjects, systems that we come across which are useful to us, used by us or we are used by them and so on. So, the quality of life is the manifestation of the quality of the interplay of these various relationships.

Life is after all not mere chronology of existence but a meaningful topology of relationships.

Wokes have nothing

 Democracy works  to evolve rules based syncretic systems to offer maximum benefit to maximum number.  Its enormity cannot be shrunk to Twitter's brevity nor can it accommodate anarchy nor welcome wokeism.

Democracy

 ​Kingdoms, at least as far as our knowledge goes, existed for several centuries ( that does not mean they were great but time tested).  

Democracy is definitely better than them but it is hardly two centuries old. 

Unless and until we try to find out what are the roles and responsibilities of democracy , whether all of them have been understood and addressed, if not , what minor modifications, improvements are needed further to enhance its value especially, in the context of fast paced changes in technological trends in the cyber world on the one hand  and how to create awareness and educate the luddites struck in the cocoons of their presumed comfort zones and bring them around to adopt to emerging trends democracy cannot be sustained.

​​

Democracy cannot afford to leave many missing the bus. This is where political strategies ,  administrative governance along with existing institutions be they religious, regional, academic , cultural etc all must be used or made to work to evolve syncretic systems to bridge the gaps and decrease the divisions.

​​Mass literacy, democracy and anti-biotic

 

​​Mass literacy, like democracy or anti-biotic, is accepted for want of a better alternative and sometimes we adopt it in totality as if it is the only method or succumb to it and unfortunately it also becomes  inevitable in certain circumstances.

 

 

However, within it or along with it or beyond it we can always play around.

 

 

Until and unless we have better alternatives or keep trying for better alternatives or at least allow space to think of better alternatives and also ensure to make the vested interest groups involved in promoting certain methods  all great thoughts, ideas and speeches will remain as unfertilized potential eggs pandering to  few moments of sensational titillation.

 

 

This also, invariably happens because of our utter disgust with existing systems we tend to oversimplify or over generalize extremely complicated and complex issues which are as bad or little less as those who have been trying to homogenize human beings, especially their psychological aspirations, feelings and creativity.

 

 

All these emanate as a result of a fundamentally ambivalent attitude and perspective towards homogenization and uniformity.

 

Democracy

                                         Democracy 

In terms of chronological classification as ‘time-tested’ with relation to human life democracy is relatively too young compared to say monarchy and other socio-political systems.

Political lessons from AAP's theatrics, media obsession and our wasting too much of time discussing the disgusting AAP but you cannot ignore a malefic cancer

Political lessons from AAP's theatrics, media obsession and our wasting too much of time discussing the disgusting AAP but you cannot ignore a malefic cancer.

1. Yes it is good for movies to show one's angst against any of the irritating social systems and throws up great heroes like Amitabh when he portrayed the unemployed youth in the 70s but if you are trying to put up an act in real politics then that by itself is a big corruption.

2. You need to wait for anything to happen even for the birth of a child you just cannot have sex and expect delivery the next day it happens only in films

3. Educated people will not be frustrated and frustrated people are not educated, they are all academically inadequately qualified, if adequately qualified they will be busy with their profession and not waste their time with AAP tamasa.

4] Ak 's primary slogan was anti corruption or at least that was the platform that Anna created and AK misused to his opportunistic advantage

5] Touch your heart and search your senses and tell me is it correct using such a platform to align with congress , the epicenter of corruption

6] Do not generalize all political parties or all politicians as corrupt that will be good for film script dialogues of Ramana of Vijayakanth or Shivaji of Rajni kanth or bhatcha of Rajini after two hours you get an illusion of solution to all your social problems and the next day you know the fact that Rajini earned some 200 crores and you lost some 500 Rs for tickets, petrol and popcorn at least you would have had the pleasure of seeing two masala numbers by scantily clad damsels whirling to some high decibel nonsense of noise called film music .

7] This ship up booted out does not happen always  if you have been following politics closely  it was during NDA the country had for the first time something known as good highways, high level of employment and more institutes of higher education and highly managed price control but then the same bunch of leftist Leninist Marxist Naxal supporting so called socialist parties supported and put UPA to power next time it was another looter DMK who did it.

8] Politics is not as simple as announcing populist schemes, making public speeches, distributing freebies, taking foreign funds clandestinely through NGOs with anti national agenda, making anti national pronouncements, engaging in sedition, keeping a grave silence about the corruption of a particular family knowing well if AK makes any move against Robert Vadra, or Sonia then AK’s family members will disappear one by one under  mysterious circumstances [ if he has balls I dare him to do that , at least make a statement about the dubious deals of Robert Vadra if he is really sincere, then I will work for AAP

9] AAP suffers from selective amnesia and collective indifference combined with proactive road shows a very highly intoxicating cocktail to be prohibited for youth

10] He is so focused in his personal agenda that he forgets to salute the national flag as a CM on republic day, mind you in any other country he would have been stoned to death for that, at least that shows his  scant respect for the nation.

11] Most importantly we as a nation are used to some psychological fallacies falling a prey to illusions combined with a pride in our ancient history of our past glory and forget the most important idioms of  modern democratic governments which can promote both civilization and progressive economic development , two fundamental aspects among the many vital factors of modern decent life.

12] These two most important idioms, overlooked even from pre-independence period are governance and overall economic development which will automatically deliver the benefits to all sections of the society, there is no need to talk of nonsensical media labels as ‘inclusive growth’ etc as all measures are always meant only for overall growth and not exclusive growth, except of course in the case of Viagra, where it is meant for exclusive growth.

13] When those idioms are in place then there will be naturally a national pride, real patriotic fervor coupled with a sense of adherence to rules etc as is the case in USA and many European countries which will attract others also but unfortunately, even most of the pioneers who steered the freedom struggle in India and who were or ought to have been aware, as they got educated in UK, namely Mahatma Gandhi and Nehru, failed to even give a minor importance to that.

[Killer aps

14] While Mahatma was busy propagating his credential as a semi saint following quasi ascetic life styles appealing to the masses, Nehru was busy holding on to his chair and scheming in keeping away competitors for the prime ministerial  post a] DR. Ambedkar  [ he did a major contribution through drafting the constitution]  b] Vallabhai Patel [who did a major contribution uniting  the princely states  to make this great real estate space called India the wonderful federal big democratic country with many shared values and varied cultures] and c] Silencing Rajaji and Babu Rajendra Prasad by assigning them titular posts.

15] Without doubt there are three Chief Ministers who have done that in recent times in MP, GOA and Gujarath and of these in Gujarath it is extraordinary, in all areas from agriculture, rural development, electricity, water supply, industrial development, higher education, communal harmony, employment generation, exports, tourism etc.

16] Chandra Babu Naidu enhanced Andra’s presence in IT which gave jobs to many educated people of Andra.

17] Way back Karunanidhi improved public transport so well that Tamil Nadu has the best public transport system anywhere in the country. M.G.R. encouraged higher educational institutions and hospitals as a rest Tamil Nadu has the maximum number of engineering colleges[ many good ones] and many good hospitals.

Jayalalitha introduced rain water harvesting schemes that has helped Tamil nadu come out of the decades of cursed water scarcity problem and now has introduced AMMA canteens which helps the poor immensely.

18] The media must busy themselves by giving more publicity to these developmental activities in different states rather than running behind publicity seeking road shows in the few streets of Delhi.

19] It is so pathetic that in such a vast country anything gets noticed only if it is a road show in some streets of Delhi that I too as a leader of a national organization with members from Kashmir to kanyamuri organized a street show of dharna in Parliament Street in 2011.

20] I even get a feeling that the media cameras and reporters move out of their studios and the capital only when there is an accident, or a small child falls into a bore well or a rape takes place in other parts of the country.

21] Unfortunately our information input and subconsciously opinion molding is both done by these popular media houses who too suffer from selective amnesia and collective indifference. Let us not fall a prey to that. You may also read of relevance to the last 4 points
