Who will give the leadership for this change? Will tweeting and messaging thus alter course? We are armchairm evolutionists not really convinced about what we say nor are we sincere in our affirmations. Hypocrisy abounds in our personal dealings. Hence, we are ineffectual. If at all it is time to evolve, it is on the personal front beginning with ourselves. One man made is worth a million lectures, Swamiji had famously said. So, let us change ourselves if at all we are concerned about our country beyond seeking popularity that is tantamount to nothing substantial in life. I shall make my own effort in this regard towards contributing to national output in character-building. So make you yours by aligning action to affirmation. In this shall lie genuine national good if even on a minuscule scale to begin with. The rest collective evolution overtime will bring about. But let us be harbingers of the process. May Swamiji bless us in our sincere endeavour if indeed sincere we shall be !
