Demographic dividends of primitive society



What an amazingly primitive and degraded cultured society. That you roll over somebody’s leftover food to get blessing and to cure skin disease is how tradition comes to be defined in this part of the world. And what is heinous is that this leftover food is the one partaken by the squatters aka ‘brahmin’. Let me remind that this is circa 2014, in case some may wonder whether we have not slipped through a time-space continuum from some medieval caves. Generously being provided by the modern amenities as if by some miracle or divine interventions, what is essentially products of research, technology, innovations...while Indians roll on in muck, as part of tradition and unique culture. The younger orangutans are growing up to be part of demographic dividend. This is where Indians negotiate their ideas of world, and their special place herein. You may think this is isolated incident, you are in for a shock, much greater variant exists in each and every place around this country. They call it diversity. The space of enlightened understanding has always been a subaltern engagement. As you see in the picture the cops are there to keep the order. That is the role of the state in democracy.
This primitive degradation has all the hallmark of what learned judges of High Court referred to as ‘ritual in its traditional form’ and therefore allowed till they decide further on subtleties and modalities. This is the caliber of Indian judiciary. Morons and regressive scoundrels as judges, in the meanwhile the learned judges of SC are busy saving the spirit of cricket, a business mistaken for sports with all kind of clever manipulators vying for lick with bunch of mediocre players. This template is something very common in Indian tradition.  

How did they define these squatters as Brahmin I would like to know?  Maybe scoundrels masquerading as ‘leading liberal journalist’ Saliva Sardesai, who also moon walks as some kind of expert on these matters could educate us. If not our self rectifying learner Gandhian Guhaji, who shares dais and promotes Sardesaiji’s book (indeed all of them are also writers, indeed Sardesaiji can even swing his fist and cuss when and where the situation demands. His words Iss hamam meh sab nange hai is immortalized in annals of, whatever can be called as, Indian journalism) should enlighten. Mishraji promotes Desaiji in an international column, so poor me is sucked into Desaiji (a heartrending peddler columnist, market’s claim on social thinking and reflection), Desaiji in turn is quick to defend Sardesaiji (which should be obvious in the complicated primitively subtle world, SarDesai is more than Desai, it is an all encompassing access to inner world that Desai will have to come in terms with!). He writes with much authority “…some recent tweets by Sardesaiji that had to do with taking pride in the achievements of some people from his caste. The truth is that most people have been brought up in the cradle of caste and to think of caste purely as a social evil is to choose to be blind to the role it plays in the lives of most Indians. A recent NCAER study tells us that only 5% of marriages in India are of an inter-caste nature, and while this is a pointer to a social problem, it underlines where we really are as a society. To pretend otherwise is to deny ourselves answers that are appropriate for the Indian context”. So here we go with the tradition of wordly dexterity, the art of packaging to whosoever it may concern. That this fellow has done exceptionally well in market is a testament to how squatters can easily ensconce to the world of pedaling. Let’s analyze Desaiji’s statement. According to our man of market with conscience of a saint, the ‘cradle of society’ is not entirely evil, where the line is drawn is not explained. It is a different matter that he finds expression of evil part as only a social ‘problem’. Sardesaiji’s taking pride, we assume, is on the non evil part. That caste is the single most source of degradation is subdued in this play of words and Gandhian diversity, it is nothing short of racism. This when taken out of this primitive ‘cradle’ and drilled into western reality becomes beacon of non violence and tolerance. It is time that international community calls this bluff and clam on this degradation of humanity. The audacity to call themselves as civilized is what baffles me. I have persistently made the point of India should be declared as a racist country.

Some high on liberalism (very likely fed by salivating Congress leftovers, who haven’t come in terms with loss of power) are quite concerned about PM Modi’s frequent foreign visits, my concern is President Mukherjee (it’s disgusting and degrading that even the first citizen of this country carries these references. Of course being a Congressman these comes easy. I can but only blame likes of Gandhi, as these were seen as normal, wherein if they were shamed in the beginning itself they wouldn’t dare to carry these in civilized world) hopping from one temple to another. Clearly President doesn’t seem to have much work nor our man is enlightened enough to dissociate from these ritualistic symbols. It is no wonder that he was able cross party lines as problem solver/negotiator before being elevated as President. We know what was working.

That these references extend to hereditary claims and degrading rituals should have been clamped down by the legislature. But then looking at the kind of politicians starting with President and down under we cannot expect much. The media too is bunch controlled by mediocre market. Only respite was Judiciary, and there look at the buffoons as HC judges who find these amazingly degrading rituals wherein people roll the leftover of others as blessing, as tradition. While buffoons at Supreme Court scores a big one by declaring the temple of Chidambaram as squatter’s property. The Indian judiciary arguably is one of most mediocre bunch with not much spine or understanding, not surprising as Desaiji mentions “the cradle…it underlines where we really are as a society. To pretend otherwise is to deny ourselves answers that are appropriate for the Indian context”.

Now that Mishraji has referred Desaiji, and Desaiji has defended Sardesaiji, and Sardesaiji has got Guhaji’s blessing. So what will Guhaji do? Well he is going to go back to Gandhi, to extract meanings from the little world…and some clever words that when taken out of Indian reality becomes beacon of hope for humanity. Nice set up. As Sardesaiji pouts 'Iss hamam meh sab nange hai'. Truly.
