Gandhiji took initiative and million of ppl followed him, today if a person takes an initiative for any good cause thousands of ppl come to pull his leg back. That’s a fact & proved here on Jatland as well.

Simplest Tale of Self Pride, Family Pride and National Pride!!!

So far, so many members have given their view, opinions and some solid grounds for feeling proud of or not feeling proud of India that is our motherland.

I agree with almost every point members have made regarding shortcomings, bad practices, corruption etc.

But I am still not convinced, why shouldn't we feel proud of our country, our mother land. I am not convinced about the criterion or say parameters that could complete a definition of National pride to emotions one could have for .

So far I have come to the point that feeling proud for the country is very 2 personal perception and feeling!

I wish to share with you all a true and very simple story of the simplest people of the land that explains me most vividly the meaning of Self Pride, family Pride and National Pride!


मेरे गाँव मिक एक हरिजन सैनिक था मुनि राम स्पुत्र श्री रायित
मुझे सही २ नही पता वह किस कोर /पलटन में था
सायद , किसी सहायक सेवा , सफाई कर्मचारी आदि में रहा होगा
ये बात ७० के दशक के अन्तिम सालों की है या ८० के दशक के शुरू की , बार्डर पर कुछ लडाई के आसार थे
तब छूटी पर गए कुछ सनिको को वापस बुला रहे थे , या मुनि राम की छुटी ख़तम हो रही थी

मुनीराम को विदाई का दृश्य आज भी मेरी आंखों के सामने घूम जाता है
उस साधारण परिवार के साधारण सिपाही की विदाई का दृश्य देखिये

टेंपो स्टैंड पर छोड़ने उस का सारा परिवार आया था
ये सब लोग ऐसे चल रहे थे जैसे विवाह के किसी समारोह में सामिल होने जा रहे हों

सबसे आगे मुनीराम के भाई , जो गाँव के चोकीदार थे, मुनादी आदि के लिए या कुश्ती के समय ढोल बजाते थे , ढोल बजाते
चल रहे थे . उसके पीछे आधे नंगे बदन घर के बच्चे चल रहे थे
बच्चों ke पीछे -२ मुनीराम पूरी वर्दी पहने , गले में फूलों के हार से सुसजित हो चल रहे थे
उसके पीछे परिवार की सभी महिलाएं गीत गाती हुई चल रही थी

सबसे पीछे वृद्ध पिता लकड़ी की छड़ी लिए चल रहे थे

मित्रो में आप सब से पूंछना चाहता हूँ , कहीं और देश में ये भावः भरा दृश्य मिल सकता है
जंहा इस पृष्ठ भूमि का सैनिक इतनी शानो -शोकत से , लडाई के बादलों से भरे माहोल में प्रस्थान करता हो

आप सब देखते , वो हरिजन सैनिक, वो परिवार कितना गौरवशाली महसूस कर रह था
वो कचे घरों और गाँधी बस्ती में रहने वाले लोग क्यों इतना गर्व महसूस कर रहे थे

मेरे एक चचेरे भाई ने अनजाने में मजाक किया था , भाई ये इसने घुलन लेजया से एक फौज में छोडन जां सें!
शायद मेरा चचेरा भाई वेदपाल उस गौरव्नित परिवार की देश प्रेम के जज्बे को नही समझ पाया था , और में भी नही !




Khush reho!

deshwal bhaisaheb...the most adorable thing abt yr posts is the honesty nd down to earth feelings tht u portray, r quite reminiscent of gud ol' yester years...aapki ek purani post pesh kar raha hun, wch might b in continuance to yr. abv. post.

...a feeling of nostalgia is vry much apparent in quite a few posts of yours...like "nanhi nanhi boondein"...honestly it gives me goose bumps...nd i also get lost in same kind of imagination...those days r gone nd so are the ppl nd their feelings. :)

Oh my God! I am feeling it now! it is like a film in front of my eyes. My home in my village was at the entrance to the village. It was like regular site, a soldier going back to unit. All the family members would accompany him to the Makrauli Railway station or after the Road connection was established, would come to the tempo stand. One would hold his "bistar bandh" and another his "ghee ki pipi". Missing from this small journey would be his wife. Most of the time the spouse wouldn't accompany. Most heartening moment would be when the soldier leaving his house and wouldn't be able to say good bye to his wife. Hugging his wife to bid good bye was out of that world. most of the time the departure would be just gazing towards each other while the wife would be in "ghoongaht"

I feel very proud to be called INDIAN b'coz.....

SABHYATA is what which makes a great difference and makes me feel proud for my nation :)

rest....progress/developments are the things for other comparisons that could be ranking or survival for the competition or for the like things

Bharat desh ki Sabhyata hi hai jo itne foreigners ko yahan kheench laayi aur unhe apne mein sameit liya.....now that's other part that our Indians are more influenced with the western culture

Modernisation is good...but...westernisation is like losing our very own identity in terms of culture

so this is my reason for having unbounded/limitless love and attachment with country INDIA (culture which differentiates me from others with a special honour)

:)
 

Thats it !

Hi all, I have somethin to share.....infact its the best possible time to pour out my feelings coz i am experiencin it at the moment n first hand experience is always the best one!!!:)
Well, I am in toronto at present as it was my childhood dream to study abroad. Though it was least expected at this juncture nyhow I still managed to make my way and took admission in Masters of law program at University of Toronto. Everythin is perfect here...teachers, fellow students, lectures, infrastructure......everythin.....but it all seem to be fake n artificial at times. You see people in sub stations, roads, malls.....they have such cold looks, they have turned themselves into machines, busy earnin money n spendin all on weekends.....they lack the warmth, the kind of culture we have, strong family ties.....they r so mechanical about everythin in life.....Well, I m not being critical here, infact tryin to locate the difference between our nation n these nations....ITS NOT ALWAYS ABOUT MONEY IN LIFE.......which nation doesn't have its share of problems....I must say INDIA is way ahead in aspects which makes a country great!!!
Well, my decision for pursuing Masters was great and withdrawin from the course is the best one!!! This trip has enhanced my vision and has really helped me to knw this world better. THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE TO ONE'S OWN NATION, BE IT IN TERMS OF NYTHING!!! But it was worth comin here or I would have never realized the importance of my nation, my family, my roots nd my culture.....m really happy that I m goin back with all the positivity which would help me to serve my nation better:)

Sukhda

really dont know ki abroad me kya acha nahi lga par kuch tha jo jo akhar raha tha..........i visited europe n i was dying to come back rather my husband n my dolls are with me par phir bhi mera mann nahi laga aur hum 1 month ka vacation 15 din me hi khatam kar ke aa gaye..........infact mujhe wahan sab jhuta sa nakli sa lga....yahan bhi aisa nahi hai ki ye sab na ho par hawa mitti sab apne hain atlast.......APNA DESH APNA HAI SABSE ACHA!!!!!! jaise apni ma sabko pyari lagti hai aise hi apna desh !!!!!
 
:) ya no dought that we are very much capable of doing things better… the Indian are intelligent, have logical and analytical thinking. Par “abhi delhi door hai” dostoon. We are performing better than before but still we won just 1 gold and 2 bronze in Olympics. We have to work even more hard to win the race.

N someone said that the people abroad have become more mechanical, I agree with his/her point but want to add that when India will be a developed country, we may also be the same. The people abroad have a systematic way of doing things, well organized and scheduled tasks/job/living, this is because they have the infrastructure to support that kind of living. Once we will reach to their standard, I think we may behave in the same manner. If you look at our new generation they are faster than us and the gap will go on increasing.

Earlier we didn’t have a culture of going to far-off places to study/work, now we people are doing the same. And gradually, who knows, we will be as developed as the Europeans and Americans, not only in terms of technology but also in behavior and conduct. So instead of thinking whats wrong with those people and we are better, we must extract/adopt the good things from there.

 [FONT=&quot]Sell what others feel is good n not what u feel is good.

u might be correct which again can only be justified after some change (in any terms) :)

but for the last satement i'll say....we can easily inculcate what we feel good but after learning about other's interest/choice (now this is a kind of extra effort)
