Neither A Thinker - Nor Open To Thoughts – The NAT- NOT2 Principle

            The natural response of some of the wise decision makers to new ideas and projects ideas is based on a mind set. This  mind set exists because of deep insecurity and fear existing at soul level as a result of 947 yrs of onslaught, plunder, loot and rape of  India. But we have to move forward new ideas with potentialities to create a new empowered India has to take shape. These mind sets manifest the following thoughts in different form:

1. I don't know the direction, but the direction given/taken by you has several obvious defects.
2. I will not act, but when you will act, I can always point out several errors in your actions.
3. I thrive on chaos, therefore, I will not allow creation of development and harmony.
4. What is not under me is against me.
5. I respect and trust you but, not as much as I respect and trust myself, because I know everything and I can do everything, I only don't have sufficient time to do everything.
6. I will not run the race, but I will not allow you to win the race.
7. I know and feel that there is a cosmic energy that moves the system, but all the events that takes place are because I thought them first and because of me. 

                            Accolades and Brickbats in Drafting Sports Act, 2005

Since every person commenting on every event has a direct or remote vested interest in its success or failure, every step even if it is forward as being dependent on established development norms like empowering democratic institutions, bringing about transparency, creating accountability makes the architect liable to receive both accolades and brickbats. Impact of e-age and the paradigm shift has created in politics also, strange relationships within and outside the political parties, on every issue which time constantly, unfolds before those who are able to see. It is now becoming evident that relationships are trending to overreach commitments. There are a few who are able to appreciate the trend and make use of it to bring about the necessary social change, for which we all are waiting patiently, in the era of direction-less-ness.

The recent 2005 Sports Act enacted by the State of Rajasthan has its ardent silent supporters and sharp vociferous critiques. Around March 2004, when the idea was projected for the first time when I told  Chief Minister of Rajasthan in the following unambiguous words-

"The youth energy should be utilized in state and national development. They should get out of dirty politics during their vulnerable years, when they are exploited by manipulators who have deep rooted vested interest in the existence of chaos and have no serious national development strategies. Drink and dinner diplomacy continue to thrive for wealth and power assimilation and at every step the youth becomes an easy prey. This ultimately leads to frustrations and depressions amongst youth and manifests itself in form of violence and crimes. Sports will mature them to enjoy win and face defeats in life. Sports development will certainly bring about some constructive and positive thinking in the youth of Rajasthan."

What followed was four months of hard intellectual labour by those who believed in me and the concept. What followed was also dirty power politics by those who did not want the State of Rajasthan to be the pioneer in creating a regulatory mechanism, the first of its kind by a BJP State Government. Every step forward was sought to be thwarted and the entire exercise was sought to aborted several times. Every clause was sought to be sabotaged. The open arguments raised by the supporters who were thriving and making merry in the unregulated sports industry, for last more then 50 years were to the effect - Why Rajasthan should be the leader. State must only create roads, electricity and water and work as welfare state by providing subsidies. Sports is totally a private enterprise. Why should Government interference in the unregulated Sports industry. What if we don’t win, we still participate etc. etc.

However, in spite of all efforts, the political will refused to wilt and with stood all internal and external pressures. It was quite revealing as to who was for and who was against a miniscule regulatory mechanism. Why suddenly there was so much of hue and cry in governments inference in the most neglected, but politically important industry effecting youth of the state and the nation.        

 Though cricket was not one of the sports and games in the list of medals in Asian, Commonwealth and Olympics, but the comment even in the highest BJP higher circles was "Undoubtedly the 2004 Ordinance seems to be a very useful piece of legislation, but the intention for making seems to be obviously wrong." To which I continued to laugh. fir I was enjoying the impact of a vision which was transforming itself into creating a legal structure. A legal structure which alone could bring about the necessary social change. The only way to make it a pulp, was to impute intentions.

About two moths after enactment of the Act, came in Lalit Modi. After detailed discussions I realised the larger impact of the Act. Sports could be worth Rs.100,000 Crores industry in India, about 20 billion USD from 1 billion USD. But that would require BCCI to get out of hands of J.Dalmiya, who would caste multiple votes to remain in control. Two votes were imperative to oust him. I told LKM, if you need two votes, work for three. So I drafted Sports Acts for H.P. and U.P. The Act was simple, private voters were disqualified and only District Association were given voting powers.

J.Dalmiya played his cards as every businessman would wish, by using best of both the political worlds in India. He was able to bring SoGa and ArJa together on the same side, which nobody has been able to achieve till date. But this clearly exposed ArJa’s personal agenda over that of BJP. What restrained ArJa from supporting BJP in Rajasthan and why was Atal Ji, Advani Ji and RSS and all those who were silent. They were all waiting for storm to run over. Every idea has a life. It is a redeeming feature that we can still resist the coming into existence of Hitler by democratic process. Nobody appreciated or supported Dalmiya’s style of autocratic functioning, who had successfully played his inning and is now trying to play another by remote control and to whom both SoGa and ArJa have fallen a calculated prey.

Is it not decipherable, that the people who are cheering the 2005 Sports Act are those who believe in the cherished principles which form the basis of our culture and heritage, but are silent spectators of its deterioration

Is it not decipherable, that we have forgotten the history of freedom struggle and only antinationalist and people with personal agendas, with deep vested interest are opposing the 2005 Sports Act.

Is it not decipherable, that the people who created the 2005 Sports Act and believe in development of youth energy for national building, were never aware of the existence of somebody called Lalit Modi and are silently waiting and watching for it to be finally upheld or struck down by the Supreme Court and resolve the issue of direction of our country.

Is it not decipherable, that at the time of war people show their true colours of supporting those who have same interest and nature and people either belong to the Raavan sena or the Kaurav sena who belong to the Ram sena or the Pandavs and that discloses who is on the side of false hood and treachery and who is on the side of truth and justice.

Is it not decipherable that the greatest wrong which led to Mahabharata was Bhishma Pitamah joining and protecting Duryodhan

Is it not decipherable, that it is our true nature and vested interest coupled with the goal we have in our heart and mind, which makes us all move and take action in the direction of our cherished goals, how much so we may try to conceal it from public eye, but we will all be exposed one day.

Let us do some serious introspection, if we are serious about development of India and join the sena of our true nature without fear and guilt and fight the war.

First Mantr of the First Sukta of the First Mandal of Rig Ved

'agnimeeley purohitam yagyasya devmritvijayam, hotaram ratnadhatmam’

The first word is agnimeeley. This word is made of two words Agni or Energy and Eeley or initiate or pray. There are three sources or springs or channels of energy. Sun, Fire and Chakras and there are three ways of initiating these sources or channels. Chanting mantr and offering aarck (water) to Sun, chanting mantr and performing yagya (offering ghee and aahuti) with fire  and meditation, by directing flow of energy through the chakras in the body. Sun reaches every living being without limitation. Fire for yagya has be lightened in the place of worship by the human being and meditation is carried by channeling the energy by moving it through the chakras. Agnimeeley would, therefore, mean that Agni I initiate you or pray you by offering arack, performing yagya or doing meditation.

The second word is purohitam and it would mean ‘that which is positioned in the front’. That which exists in the front for receiving, holding, and distributing to the one to which it belongs is a Purohit. Purohit is the mouth or the receiver of the divine. Purohit is akin to the counter of a bank. The person to whom we give and he who receives the cheque or cash and the amount is deposited in the account of the account holder. When aarck is offered to the  Sun, the water evaporates and the mantra reach the Sun, initiating the energy of the Sun and to be spread out all over. When yagya is performed, the fire hold the vibrations of the mantras and carries the vibrations of the mantras to respective divine  or devta for whom the mantra is chanted. Similarly during  meditation the energy of the chakras are initiated, activated and moves from one to another.

The third word is 'yagyasya' which would mean 'resulting from yagya’. The result of the yagya would depend on the person performing the yagya and also the process of yagya. The doer of the yagya is the human being and the process is offering of the aarck, performing the yagya and doing meditation. For Sun, offering aarck at different timing and chanting  different mantra will have different results. Performing Yagya with fire by chanting different mantra for different divine deity or devta for whom the mantra is chanted would bring in different results and meditating on different chakras would bring in different results.

The fourth word is devmritvijayam. This word is made up of three words - dev + ritu + vijay. Devta are the angles or deities or divine beings or repositories of different kind of energy in cosmic form. They are like different cabinet ministers holding key to different departments or portfolios or different spices which have different smell different colour and give different taste.  Ritu is a beautiful, powerful and  deep rooted word and  means season, that which comes into existence by movement of Earth round the Sun and is dependent on true dharma or perfected laws of nature, which we continue to decipher. Ritu for yagya would mean the perfect procedure and correct phonetic pronunciation of the mantras and ritu for meditation would mean the exact step by step procedure for cleansing, pranayam, meditation, regulating and moving the life energy in the body and chakras. Devmritvijayam would, therefore, mean that it is an established law like the coming into existence of season that, that devta will become more victorious, energized and powerful whose more yagya are performed or in other words, that energy will get more activated for which more yagya are carried on.

The fifth word is 'hotaaram' and would mean ‘happening because of some effort or action or karma’. It would also mean the logical result that comes out of some doing or doing something. There is a result that comes into existence when the being gives aarck to the Sun, there is a result when a being performs yagya with fire and there is a result by meditating on the chakras.

The sixth and the last word is ‘ratnadhatmam’. This word consists of two words ‘ratna’ and ‘dhatri’. Ratna would mean wealth in all forms. That which is shining, revels and exhibits brilliance and would also mean fame, power, victory, wealth, property, all forms of fortunes and a value etc. everything that gives happiness, joy, delight, security, ecstasy and bliss. Health, integrity, knowledge of all sciences and art, wisdom, any form of skill or talent, etc. are also ratna. ‘Dhatmam’ has its root in ‘dhatri’ and means the receiver and possessor or the one who gets, receives and continues to keep. Ratnadhatmam would, therefore, mean she/he who becomes the beneficiary, recipient and possessor of ratna.

Sun exists in the cosmic world and reaches every being. Invocation of the cosmic energy of the Sun by offering or giving aarck to the Sun and chanting the mantra, would make the person who offers, beneficiary, recipient and possessor of fame, recognition and eminence etc.

When a person performs yagya and offers offerings to fire and chants  the mantra relating to a particular divine, that divine becomes empowered. The food of the divine is the offerings and the mantra, more the offering and more the mantra, more the empowerment of that divine and this happens or occurs like season, a logical consequence. The result is a matter of rule and not just hearsay. The empowerment of the divine results in making the performer of yagya rich, wealthy and prosperous in the worldly sense.

When a person meditated on the chakras and activates the dormant energy in kundalini the person who meditates enjoy the bliss and ecstasy and may also obtain siddhi of healing, prediction, channeling or other metaphysical powers of co-information and co-creativity etc.

          The complete transliteration/ interpretation would be: Initiate, pray and meditate the Sun, Fire and Chakras, the distributor, receiver, holder and channel of the divine energy. Such initiation, prayer and meditation as a law empowers the divine. As a result thereof the performer of yagya is provided with fame, victory and health; wealth and prosperity; ecstasy and bliss or Pray agni, the purohit (of the divine). The performance of yagya as of rule empowers the divine. As a result the performer of yagya becomes possessor of wealth and prosperity.

            Pray agni, the purohit (of the divine). The performance of yagya as of rule empowers the divine, which results in the divine making the performer of yagya possessor of wealth and prosperity.
