Is he destined to fail?... Reading Arvind Kejrival- The Delhi Chief Minister

My first impression is that Arvind Kejrival(AK) had read a lot of childhood stories (Chandamama story book of Telugu is best example) which emphasize on king, kingdom and heroic acts of yuvraj etc. I too thought of becoming one of the heroes while reading those books at my childhood, but I'm not as lucky as Arvind Kejrival to realize my dream.
In his CNN-IBN interview too with Rajdeep Sardesai, he displayed his heroic acts. What he was saying is all true. He never admitted a single mistake by his Government. Rajdeep few times has raised about 'anarchy', but due to lack of my knowledge in that subject I leave it to the readers.

As I observed the main plus points of Kejrival are...
1. He takes responsibility.
2. He want to be normal human being. No. He hates to be rich or powerful man, at least hates showing himself like a 'bada babu'
3. No fear of loosing power and committed to hunt Commonwealth culprit whether it is Shiela Dikshit or some other man. This is despite his survival on same Sheila's Congress support.
4. The principle of AK is, 'do whatever your heart says. Stick to principles. Not possible? At least try to stick with them. Whatever the procedure if greater good is happening- Do that'.

The prominent drawbacks of Kejrival, I try to put down here
1. Arvind Kejrival doesn't admit any wrong doing of him.
2. He manipulate situations, words or acts to defend his present acts. No mention for the past words or acts in his present debate. He simply skips.
3. Defending the indefensible in Maoist way (I can't find a better word than this)
4. Finally and the dangerous one- Implementing the 3rd point. What you think is correct - implement it.

  • This is going to be the cause to sink his ship.(Eg. Some section of people are corrupt. And they need to be straitened through beating, whatever you name it- whether by suspending, abusing or by blackmailing with sting operations)


Ironically the fourth of the plus points and the forth minus point are talking to each other. 99% of the people on Earth too would vote positively for the fourth point. Exactly with this point as back bone, 99% of world movies and stories were made. Hero of every movie struggle for this very fourth point. The villains and society oppose it. Law and order comes into picture. The Judge gives an order that though the Hero did a great job the law says he needs to be hanged. What a cruel world!!!? The LAW. The real CULPRIT. 
The PROCEDURE., BUREAUCRACY!!! 
This is what our Arvind Kejrival hates in the same way as the crores of fans of the all heroes do. AK wants to be a 'legend of ZARRO' or simply the 'KRISH' (Aam admi is suffering from the people who are having sticks in their hand. Whether it is police or Ambani. They need a lesson)

Why is the society doesn't permit some one to do good even though it is the wish of the society members?
It is because of a simple truth. The society is for all and of all. Society is answerable to all, including the culprits. Victim needs to get justice and culprit needs to be brought to justice. You need to have a proof to convict the culprit. Heroes usually don't bother about gathering proofs and preserving the proofs. Most of the times it is the work of side characters, who usually save the hero from hanging. But for AK there is none in this aspect.

In Governance 'procedure' is substitute for 'preservation of proofs'. Maoism born from the negligence. It doesn't bother to check facts. Arvind Kejrival exactly sits here. It is negligence or intellectual laziness. It is also visible that he is NOT going to acquire this characteristic in near future. So he is handicapped in this aspect.

How does it harms his government or his career? 
It slows the process. He cannot entirely abolish the law system. The villains can lodge complaints against him (or withdraw support for him- in normal language).

Though it is unpredictable how he cannot progress further but sure is that he destined to fail if he doesn't recognize the fact. He also destined to lose to his one and only opponent. Unlike AK his opponent has carried a rich experience on this aspect. 
Let us see whether any other personal trait will dominate in deciding the outcome of 2014 general elections.

On the concept of God…


In philosophy not many big minds has touched the concept of God. A few are with God and a few differ with God.
We like a person who suggests us and who guides us for our own benefits. We like who cares for us. If someone is there to look at your every problem and give timely solution what would you say about him? Someone who studied you pretty enough to correctly guess every moment of yours on each occasion and he knows how to mould you. And he also looks for higher good.
What you think he does to you?
Every one of us likes to have someone like him for us. Don’t we?
I’m not seeking help for what I can tackle with. I only seek guidance for what I don’t have enough experience/skill to tackle it.
You know how your kid behaves at certain situations. You don’t allow him to do the things which are not ought to do. You want him to grow with values. You don’t want him to grow having bad habits.
While you grow you may know certain good habits those benefit you in a big way. You record them. You live with them. If given a chance you may also let others follow your way. You may try to bring them in your way. If you find that encouraging others in order to lead quality life is best thing you can do in your life. If you know the best way to get others in your way and you have that skill. You obviously deliver the same.
You are having a skill to see future. You know how the things are going to be. You certainly know what you will be after death and how everyone will be. You know what is good for everyone and what extent you can do for them. It is even better if you know how to see and mould others after your death if it seems to be required. If you know all of these things you do what necessarily to be done for the benefit of all.
…..
In this case what should I call you?
I don’t hesitate to call you God. I don’t think a God can do more than this. More than this is not required.
Think you are still evolved. You know everything. What’s best, what life is and what everything is. You look at everything as you know everything. There is nothing which hurts you or which puzzles you. You look as everything goes smoothly. You know it is happening as it is to be. You don’t interrupt anything as you don’t see anything wrong in anything. You experience it you enjoy it and you are immersed in it.
In this case what you are called?
Still God? Higher than that? Or nothing?

Or Paramatma?

I like this manifestation.
