FROM MEN TO APES AND APES TO MEN

 

Dream.Discover.Explore.Create.EVOLVE.

Evolution- Nature's own way of reinventing. Its best way of teaching us that nothing is permanent except change. Change is everything and everything is change.

Atoms form molecules which in turn form matter-all that exists. A simple fact of Science which no one says no to. Is it then that difficult to accept that when a group of people sharing same beliefs come together for a cause resulting in a rebellion, its only natural and not anti-social? If not, then why the ban on country's honest people organising themselves into what can be termed as "peaceful, non-voilent troops" and standing up for what is right and what they believe in? To be more particular, Why the lathi-charge on Baba Ramdev? Why the curfew for Sri Anna Hazare's fight for justice in New-Delhi? If that was not enough, there is news of the Maharashtra police shooting at the poor farmers who tried to show their anger against the corrupt govt.'s mal-policies, mercilessly from behind their backs after they called-off the protest!

While the present circumstances obviously point towards a grim future, my take on the same is inspired by Karl Marx's Theory of class struggle. I am not a Marxist per se, just a believer in this case. The theory stated in simple words is as follows: The society is organised into classes. Basically, two dominant ones: the oppressors and the oppressed. When the mis-match in their ideas reaches its zenith, it results in a rebellion. If conducted properly, the same rebellion leads to the overthrow of oppressors. After a certain period of time, the same chain of events occur all over again.The society evolves from apes to men and then goes back from men to apes. Hence, my optimism.

If the oppressed honest people of this country choose to be true to their hearts and follow the path of righteousness, as lead out by the likes of M.K. Gandhi and Shaheed Bhagat Singh, nothing can restraint the overthrowing of the corrupt government. Truth conquers all. What we are witnessing today are the seeds of a bigger, better rebellion to come in near future which would experience total participation of the citizens, much like what we observed in Egypt a few weeks back.

If carried out properly, this very rebellion can lead to independence in its truest sense. The need of the hour is awakening. Enlightment of the people to their rights of justice, right against discrimination and right to freedom of expression, thoughts and ideas. The pressing matter right now for the leaders of these rebellions is ensuring maximum participation from the "aam janata". Total eradication of corruption will follow.

And then again, when the present torch-bearers turn into oppressors, there would be a new spark of revolt. From apes to men and men to apes. 

Here's to a bright future of India!

JAI HIND!
