AWAKE NOW LEST IT BE TOO LATE

AWAKE NOW LEST IT BE TOO LATE

We are going down the gutters as a nation with the Mumbai film culture eating into our very vitals. Wake up and rescue the motherland. Shameless levity stalks the nation today. Eminent citizens, as Swamiji had in an altered context said, have become lying masks of men. Trust not the so-called rich, Swamiji had thundered. Awake and arise to a sense of self-dignity. This mass culture of cheap humour doth not humour the great Mother anymore. Build your personality and resist this cheapness if you love the Mother who has incarnated as the motherland. Upon your serious intent and action depends India's destiny. Awake and shed this shameless commercial corrosion that solely characterises the nation today. Be serious for the signs are ominous and the portents are of impending doom. God bless my country!
