The only mission in life is to search for that lost world, through the trails it has left in people, when they are left to be themselves, to think, feel, and judge on their own, free from inhuman hatred in the name of religion, race or nation.
| I am Amit Phansalkar, a citizen -- as
they say-- of the world; of a world torn by fanatical ideologies and religious
extremism, war and violence, racial prejudices, excessive regionalism and
dividing patriotism. A citizen? Or just a refugee from a world which was
destroyed by these very curses; a world where peace at least had a chance,
and was not just a matter of pacts, where human life was not cheaper than
Uranium, or lines in some scripture, or a directive by some government.I
came from a remote place Solapur (Maharashtra) , in a nation - India-
that was one of the best in the world, because it had culture; a culture
which was ready to absorb things from other cultures, but robust enough
to retain its identity; a culture which did not require self-proclaimed
guardians to exist; a culture rich, diverse and broad. A culture which
still exists somewhere, lost in the weeds of fanaticism, and hatred.
The only mission in life is to search for that lost world, through the trails it has left in people, when they are left to be themselves, to think, feel, and judge on their own, free from inhuman hatred in the name of religion, race or nation. |
