Me, My Guru - on On being part of the Society and Social responsibilities!
And coming to corrupt politicians – yes, there are many and there will
be too! From time immemorial people in
power tend to get corrupt and some time down the line someone who doesn’t like
what he sees around him brings about that change many times at the cost of his
near and dear ones too!
Pandavas waging war against Kauravas was for this reason only and not
personal as many think or want to believe.
Changragupta Maurya fought against ‘Most powerful and cruel Nanda’ King
though it seemed impossible.
In the year 1857 great many warriors lost their lives in the first war
of Independence – few of known names being Tantia Tope, Jhansi Lakshmi Bai and
others. They didn’t fight to enjoy the freedom. They could’ve easily lived if
they had thought only about self – like many others but they didn’t. And after
90 years of struggle and sacrifice we got our independence and thousands who
died for the same didnot reap the benefit and even couldn’t live to see the
country become free and yet they gave their lives and all their comforts
sufferings innumerable pains. If they had thought “why should I give?” or let
me enjoy my life, we wouldn’t have had this tax problem to think about today.
Yes, it is their fault that we are living with this situation and pain.
Whenever I see a road laid, street lit, metro-rail constructed, I smile
with pride that my ‘tax-money’ brought about this change. Maybe, your money
goes to minister’s house but mine goes here.
