A Creative Leader! What people follow…?

        When we think about leaders, we try to find them in Politics but they are equally present at all movements of life starting from spiritual to social, corporate to art & culture, profession to business, sports & games to family heads…

        The fundamental quality is the spirit that lends power on a strong base…

        A Leader gradually develops the following traits.

• 1.     He is first and foremost a true service provider, must not want the position. A good Leader has no value for worldly things which are temporary, pursues higher aims that are more permanent.
• 2.     He is able to communicate vision to the people. A Leader must be established in higher values.
• 3.     He is dedicated to the welfare of the people not driven by self interest.  A Leader must have an impeccable character and be above reproach.
• 4.     He who invest his unique talent and energies in that field. A Leader born with to follow inner callings & believe to identify it.
• 5.     He who believes intellectual judgments should prevail.  A Leader not gets distracted by whims & fancies, follows the clear reasoning of intellect & carefully thought decisions.
• 6.     He distinguishes obligatory actions, desire driven actions & prohibited actions. A Leader with hard work performs obligatory duties free from attachment.
• 7.     He performs action and ‘knows’ to work in a spirit of service and sacrifice for a higher ideal. A Leader must be in a foundation of a good higher ideal.
• 8.     He who loves people and feels one with them. A Leader evokes a powerful response from the people in a spirit for progress.
• 9.     He takes the stand and plays it to the best of his ability. The prerequisite of a Leader is his objectivity, witness attitude to become successful & happy.
• 10.    He cultivates the quality from humans thought textures. A Leader is a person who is objective, subjective, creative & effective…

        Now walk the talk which attracted the attention and lead the objective, when a pure and passionate Leader achieved calmness and serenity forever… The State & Citizens offering memorable tribute to Balasaheb Thackeray! End of an unique Indian Sena… depicts as a genuine Leader, may his soul rest in peace, condolence to his huge followers, fans, critics, friends & families…

        People follow what he have done & achieved…

To mark the post memorable, I do hereby giving a flowery tribute of the day, through one of our official gardens few exhibits from recently taken album..

                  Many thanks for the visit.

Revolving around 12th Jan’12…

        The day of 12^th Jan’2012 already passed with some marks as usual day, pride of ‘ National Youth Day’ and celebrating 150^th Birth Anniversary of a Genius & commanding personality Swami Vivekananda, born on 12th. Jan'1863 in West Bengal, India.

        Now, I prefer to take you in the ambit of Swami Vivekananda and his own statement of account, who was genuinely a great achiever, philosopher, academician, inspirational thinker, and spiritual leader. It is Shri Ramakrishna as ‘Master’ or ‘Guru’ gave him the God vision and transformed him to a sage & prophet with authority to teach what he follows to the best possible ways and means… that everyone is aware.

        You are also aware, of the great speech of Swami Vivekananda on Hinduism at Chicago’s Parliament of Religion in 1893, which makes our country proud.

        But, in the year 1899 during second visit to America engaged in academic activities… written, given speaks & taken classes to teach Vedanta Philosophy like other science subjects.

        What was his actual intension, could have remained undiscovered, if on 27^th Jan’1890 (i.e. 112 years before) Mrs. Bowler the then President of Shakespeare Club, do not questioned him at the city of Pasadena, California, America, during attending a lecture session… 

         Mrs.Emeline Bowler asked during the programme day… You used to deliver lecture... actually what is your work? What is your life’s mission and how do you what to achieve it?

         Swami Vivekananda replied…

“My mission is million & million of peoples…must have a better piece of bread and a better piece of rag on their bodies”.

        Reasonably, everyone present there was considerably surprised, because he is known as Religious leader at his Country and academic philosopher to the rest of the World. What! His mission is not as religious campaigner & organizer, but wish to render for countrymen hunger and wearing.

        Then how his life ambitious can be fulfilled and how India’s common citizen will have food & cloth?...

        He himself has given the answer going to the route of the problem, “Indian peoples a practical want of intellectual education about life on this earth”. That needs to be arranged.

        But how?... It’s by “Opening schools”. According to his opinion…opening & operating school can’t ensure education! …Because, “The boy of 4/6 years would better go to the plough or to work, then to your school”. Then?... “If a ploughman’s boy cannot come to education, why not meet him at the plough, at the factory, just wherever he is, go along with him… like his shadow”…

        Who will go? Who will teach them?

        His reply was more out bursting!...” I must tell you that am not a very great believer in monastic system”. An astonished statement!…adjoined...

        “There must be centre’s to educate these monks in the method of education and that teaching requires tremendous centre’s… means teachers, training and for that need strength of money”.

        For the development & progress of the country Swami Vivekananda laid his plan in easy terms…

        Investment for establishment of quality Institution; creating good teachers, those teachers to be send to the each students; children should be given practical education; that education will help to give earning ability; lakhs of people will get good food & cloths...

        He started the work and said!...“I am glad to tell you I have a rude beginning”, but can’t finish, within two & half years the great soul left the body as on 4^th July’ 1902... being only 39Y-5M-24days...      

        The most important task seems incomplete after more than hundred years, rather 112 years…

        We all pray him, believe his philosophy, support him…But don’t know why we not yet understand his plan of action…i.e. create good teachers and give practical education…then progress will certainly come…as pronounced by the Great Swami Vivekananda, 112 years back! even relevant today...

        Let’s revolve around this central idea… and seek change the present approach. Where a teacher with initial profile & dependency on such qualification, in general leading a carrier of 35 years education to children’s…

        My approach to this post is to simply generate awareness... Thanks!

                                                                                                                               

Independence day & Sri Aurodindo…

          On this very day, August 15, 2011 is the 64 th anniversary of “Free India”, we have & are celebrating this important event throughout the Country.

          Free India born on August 15, 1947 and Sri Aurobindo was born on August 15, 1872. It is strange that these two events fallen on the same day, its 139 th birth anniversary of Sri Aurobindo.

         

          Here! Is the speech or Sri Aurobindo which he delivered on the Independence day 1947 from Tamil Nadu, Trichi radio station. The message he gave for this day is so charged with words of destiny, that one must hear it and is relevant even today.

          Back to August 15, 1947; Sri Aurobindo said, “…Its marks for her the end of an old era, the beginning of a new age. But we can also make it by our life and acts as a free nation an important date in a new age opening for the whole world, for the political, social, cultural and spiritual future humanity...”

         “ August 15, is my own birthday and it is naturally gratifying to me that it should have assumed this vast significance…Indeed, on this day I can watch almost all the world-movements which I had hoped to see fulfilled in my life-time, though then they looked like impracticable dreams, arriving of fruition or on their way to achievement. In all these movements Free India may well play a large part and take a leading position.

         “The first of these dreams was a revolutionary movement which would create a free and united India. India today is free but she has not achieved unity….

         “Another dream was for resurgence and liberation of the people of Asia and her return to her great role in the progress of human civilization….

         “The third dream was a world-union forming the outer basis of a fairer, brighter and nobles’ life for all mankind…

          “The final dream was the spiritual gift of India to the world has already begun…

…And a step in evolution which would raise man to a higher and larger consciousness. This evolution must proceed through a growth of the spirit…the initiative can come from India and...The central movement may be hers…

          “Such is the content which I put into this date of India’s liberation….”

        A quote of Hope;

        “ India has become the symbolic representation of all the difficulties of modern mankind. India will be the land of its resurrection- the resurrection to a higher and trurer life.”  - The Mother ( February 3, 1968).

A symbol of Victory!

My best wishes to all…
