.The problem w our society @Tarunvijay ji is leaders pampering grown up hale & hearty youth as if they are kids being coddled, instead of strictness & demanding high standards of tapasya. I find this w gurus, political netas, & across civic society. Breeding mediocrity.

. I have 50yrs direct lived experience inside many countries. The competitive ones in modern kurukshetra have tough, resilient, rugged ppl. The losers are emotionally weak, seeking shelter from reality by going into denial. Why did India end up here?

.It was Subhash Bose vs Gandhi clash to define the nation’s DNA. Had Bose prevailed we would have tough character like Chinese after Mao. Unlike the “my beta” approach of privilege. Leadership has failed the youth in delivering them a future; now covering up with hugs.

.Powerful nations were born out of French Revolution, American Revolution, Russian Revolution, Maoist Revolution, etc. One generation paid price with bloodshed. Our birth without the pain/tapasya caused this psychological weak society. Not prepared to face harsh/brutal world.🙏

.I am open to discuss this w you in mutually respectful way & open to learn your views.🙏
