REMINDER TO ALL THE POLITICIANS OF THE COUNTRY! WHEN THE FOUNDATION UNDER YOUR FEET IS SHAKY,HOW CAN YOU EXPECT TO BUILD UP THE MANSION OF LIFE?

If an individual has to progress, or a village has to develop or a nation has to be prosperous, social consciousness and the sense of unity are essential. Unity protects man. Disunity makes man a prey to worries of all kinds. To all politicians please remember!

"Union is strength, with unity anything can be achieved. Like ants which collectively can destroy even a python."

This adage proclaims that there is no greater strength than that derived from unity.
When we recall the past history of our country, we find that various invaders... The Portuguese and British - overran the country and tried to change the culture and institutions of the country. The nation did not lack men of valour or eminent political leaders.

Freedom was achieved... But did not unity. This is because of the eclipse of an all embracing vision. Parochial fanaticism, caste and religious dissensions and selfish and self-centred ambitions have combined to degrade human qualities to their nadir.

Another potent factor responsible for the moral decline of our leaders, primarily politicians in the country is the absence of a feeling of national oneness.

The situation in the country today demands that all should unite as brothers to strive for the progress, the prosperity and the well-being of the nation. This means that in the interests of the nation and society, four things are essential: Equality, Unity, Co-operation and Fraternity. If anyone of these is absent the national edifice will collapse. Hence, the people should cherish equality and unity.

The term "Man" is derived from the term "Mind". Mind means an aggregation of thoughts. And thoughts account for the joy and sorrows experienced in daily life. Hence, it is only when the mind is filled with pure thoughts that human existence becomes meaningful.

Can a person obsessed with power have a pure heart? No. Hence, all the Y.B's should become the servants of the public. The servants of the public are like a bridge between the Government and the people. It is only when this bridge is safe and sound that there can be good relations between the Government and the people.

When we speak about leaders of the country, means one who has no antipathy towards anyone in the village. he is one who treats all alike. It is only when such terms are understood properly and people act accordingly that a person leads a meaningful existence.

Today the situation is reversed. Please remember! The well-being of the villages determines the well-being of the nation. By providing the essential amenities for the people in the villages, promoting mutual cooperation amongst them and developing fraternal feelings among them, the progress of the village has to be ensured. At the individual level, there may be differences. But these should be set aside and all efforts concentrated on the development of the village as a whole.

When rain falls from the sky, the rain water is totally pure. But depending on the nature of the place where it falls, the name and form of the water become various. Likewise there may be diversity among men on account of regional and other factors, but the historical reasons for this diversity will have to be borne in mind.
