Living Independence: The Art of Self-Governance and Self-Reliance


 Living Independence: The Art of Self-Governance and Self-Reliance

Real independence is the self-rule and self-dependence. In spirituality, independence is viewed as freedom from conditioning and externalities. Currently, the independence day in India has bee politicised through new slogans, catch phrases, campaigns, externalities, tokenism, show offs by politicians, it is no more a national and public festival.

In spirituality, all externalized and ritualized celebrations in the name of independence are new fetters and systems of control.

Here is a non-poem that describes independence from the point view of spirituals.

You gain independence
When you undo
Your social conditioning
Based on competition
And material progress
To nurture your ego
~*~
You gain independence
When you rise
Above-n-beyond senses
By shunning gratifications
To live life that’s
Ever spotless clean
~*~
You gain independence
When you make right choices
Through free will
That’s value based
Beyond the traps of materialism

An ink attack at Jantar Mantar and aftermath

Image
 An ink attack, which involves throwing ink at a rival, celebrity, politician, or public official, is typically intended to humiliate the target, attract media attention, and convey feelings of hate or disagreement. Such actions undermine democracy and hinder the potential for constructive and meaningful discussions. They substitute logical arguments with cheap publicity stunts. This type of attack goes beyond rational discourse and peaceful debate, creating panic as it may involve hazardous chemicals. However, when a government supporter targeted Abhijit Dipke of CJP at Jantar Mantar, he and his supporters managed to handle the situation calmly, preventing social unrest. A limerick  Young Dipke, a chap quite astute, Was ink-attacked, a messy pursuit. He stayed calm and meek, As the attacker woman did shriek, "Blue's my color!" he said, with sweet hoot.
