The chips are down. There is a countrywide panic as the toll keeps increasing due to C. Time to spread positive vibes. In one century, after the Spanish flu 1918 killed 12 million Indians, situation has vastly improved. We have a caring govt now that pitches in to rescue as against the British overlords' indifference and insensitivity that existed then.
Stop watching the media full of negative crap. They die for your eye balls. And monetise it thru TRPs.
Build life based on faith. And hope. We, as a race survived many disasters. We Indians are of a different mettle. Don't cave in easily. The return of the migrants now, proves the point. The rural India shows the way. Talk to a farmer and learn how he lives merrily in everyday crisis. For many poor in India, getting quarantined is a better lifestyle. Food n medicines bed-delivered. Once released after testing negative, they are back to their worse conditions !
If masking and social distancing are the biggest pain points, it proves the comfort zone we are in, otherwise.
Re-visit history rubbishing all sombre narratives of how times are changing from bad to worse etc. For a change, we may get the counter narratives of how, over centuries we learnt to respect human rights better. How two people killed in police custody in TN created almost a revolt across India till it resulted in the guilty policemen held. Centuries back it would never have been a piece of news. Kings and their henchmen could behead any citizen and get away. So much for human rights.
It's not that justice being done and all hunky dory now. So much of injustice still there. But the freedom we enjoy now exercising our rights as ordinary citizens was never there before. So be positive.
Even if we go back to historic times, a king of a nation abducted the wife of another king in exile. Made a Ramayan out of it. Think of a Prime minister doing the same to PM of another country. Is it even thinkable now.
And another case in point. In the middle of the King's court, a woman of another royal family dragged in and the Kings men attempted to disrobe her. And the great Acharyas, the upholders of righteousness and their Chela lot in the court kept mum. And made a Mahabharat out of that. Is it possible to even imagine now. In the middle of Parliament a woman being dragged in by Govt for humiliating, even while speaker watches, all the ministers and senior MPs keep quiet.. Impossible to even imagine. Not even in the assembly of worst governed state where horse trading of MLAs is rampant. What are we complaining against. So, times are far better. Be positive.
Even at societal level, the panchayats gave brutal punishments. Proved male chauvinistic. History is full of human rights abuse at Governance level.
Then came the Renaissance and the modern era with machines. The brutality didn't stop. An Advanced nation produced Adolf Hitler. And the holocaust saw six millions Jews massacred, many using brutal machines.
Is it possible now to repeat it in that scale. Less probable. Even in North Korea. Though US infused crises, trigger such brutalities in miniature form here n there. Like Afghanistan and Iraq.
Things improved a lot now. So be positive.
Even in a Pandemic, all that they want us to do is to stay back at home, maintain social distance, wearing mask, if out. Your handset/lappy connects you to the world. You get to do WFH (Work From Home) n earn non stop. In olden days not possible. Most might have been into temple projects and the like. (At least in South with thousands of temples).Rock cutting all the time n got paid by Kings in grains. Rest in Agriculture.
No WFH possible. What are we complaining against. Be positive.
We live in far better times. In fact Human rights have never seen such good times in the entire history. From autocratic bigoted Kings to throbbing democracy is a long fruitful journey. It ended up in giving us a remarkable leader to uphold our rights and freedom. It is played out in front of us. What is there to complain now. Be positive.
Yes. We are on our way to the Golden chapter of Indian History. A matured democracy will show the world how to govern with Truth and Righteousness. With all humility. Be positive.
No need to Panic. Keeping the above in mind, calmly use this forced lockdown to rebuild yourself. With Peace and harmony at the centre.
Feel at home. At home. That's the starting point. Then..then..you guessed it right.
Pray. Chant. Meditate
See your inside architecture changing. Certain stillness settling down. Positive vibes pervading...
Is me Panic na mumkin. Sambhav hi nahi. Now you can face any crisis. With confidence. Cool na.
Sairam 😊🙏🌹
