My heart, my body, my soul is crying in sadness, in anger, in frustration from what happend to our city Mumbai! A nation with huge hetirage and socalled wisdom, has lost the zeal, courage and will to protect itself, its citizen, it soil.
India has lost its way since indepences. Often I feel so very pessimistic, given the kind of people we have running the nation. The curruption, the lethergy, the utter lack of self respect is appalling!
We bitterly complain about incompetence of our police force. Today, I feel sad for them and pity them. They arent paid well, they are used to raid the dancebars, how can they stand agaist fanatical guys driven by hateful ideology with a death wish?
The road repair work in Mumbai goes on yearround, every year. Contractors and politician perform special gyana for moonsoon so they can continue the road repair as their means of sustainace. That money could be used to resource so many constructive endeavours.
Can go on and on.
Yet, Indians are mostly great at individual level and I tell myself not to loose faith. Modern India is chaotic and lulled like a sleeping giant. All it takes moment when it will resolve to coming of the stuper and find its place on the sun.
I believe in life, I believe in destiny, I believe in victory of good over evil. We shall overcome.
There is enormous power in prayer, time for us to galvanise and have prayers around the world on a day, at the same time allover the globe, to say, let sanity prevail, let live suceed over evil.
