respected all ,
post successful nationwide movement against corruption , we are coming
across some very interesting developments . the corrupt india are in a
state of extreme unrest , hence they are resorting to their mean ways
to make the issue so controversial that the common man should loose
faith in the movement. The worst part is that some of the so called
civil society groups have joined hands with these traitors of the
nation and are trying their level best to designify the issue. I name
it crab culture.
this reminds me of a joke that goes like this -
once Indian crabs were shipped for western countries , packed in large
containers. while the ship was on its way to destination , a high tide
resulted in a jerk and lids of some of the containers opened. the
caretaker reported the matter to the captain of the ship and asked if
the lids be fixed again. The experienced captain said " do not worry ,
the crabs will not go anywhere . these are Indian crabs . as soon as
one crab shall start climbing up , the other shall pull it down . "
at this juncture of time a poem that i read in my textbook way back is
also coming to my mind . there may be alterations from the original
text but the sense is same -
The mountain and the squirrel
Had a quarrel,
And the former called the latter
"Little prig."
Bun replied,
"You are doubtless very big;
But all sorts of things and weather
Must be taken in together
To make up a year
And a sphere.
And I think it no disgrace
To occupy my place.
If I'm not so large as you,
You are not so small as I,
And not half so spry:
I'll not deny you make
A very pretty squirrel track.
Talents differ; all is well and wisely put;
If I cannot carry forests on my back,
Neither can you crack a nut."
Everyone is okay at its place and should contribute constructively
towards this goal of getting the lokpal for the citizens of India. No
destructive approaches please.
time of introspection for civil society members across the nation .
united we stand , divided we fall . an activist should never have any
ill-feeling for anyone.
means adopted may be different but destination is the same. so please
help save honesty & fight corruption with an open n generous heart.
best regards
urvashi
