Hi!
Nothing is derogatorily darker than the darkness of mind!
Still many are busy in their age-old futile attempts
either to attain virtue through violence,
or to bring justice against one atrocity
through accepting another atrocity!
Darkness of minds keep all these always widely prevalent.
In the absence of the light of appropriate knowledge,
we almost always become mere slaves of the existing systems.
Obliteration of the darkness of our minds
is itself an 'Eternal Festival of Light',
which spreads the light of knowledge
to grow our collective wisdom,
which in turn transforms our world
into a better place to live!
Greet you heartily with the thought
on this 'Seasonal Festival of Light of India'!
Hi!
... Conveying my Heartiest Greetings ...
Let's Spread the Light of Freedom ...
The Celebration would be Beautifully Brighter,
if We Care to be little more Sincere & Honest
to the Virtues of Independence & Democracy ...
Please allow yourself to read in detail
at the links provided with the following excerpts ...
" ... we citizens of India
are living through an attack on our democracy
far more insidious and lethal
than anything a bunch of terrorists
could have concocted.
Future "travellers from an antique land" called India
may well recall Ozymandias. ... "

" ... In India,
nutrition surveys of
the National Nutrition Monitoring Bureau have shown
that over 33 % of the population
have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of less than 18.5,
considered to be the minimum level
for less than starvation standards.
Translated to demography,
this means that over 400 million people are exposed to
near starvation conditions.
To add to this catastrophic situation,
we are confronted now with a new set of crises.
Between 1990 and 2005,
the daily per capita availability of foodgrains
has fallen from 510 grams to 438.
World food prices have risen,
and the concentration of land ownership in a few hands has intensified. ... "

" ... We are firmly committed to Peace:
but to a Peace animated by justice and equity
and based on the values of life and liberty.
In the absence of these,
restoration of peace through military action
can only lead to the graveyard of peoples’ aspirations.
I end with a plea
that in the twenty first century
let us not repeat the bloodshed
that our ancestors inflicted upon populations
across large areas of the globe.
The resources of the world are for us all to share.
Let us affirm our faith in that common cause."

... If We can do ...
India will Shine
in the Beautifully Bright Light of Freedom & Democracy ...
Please add your voice
to demand justice & immediate release
