I always hear people complaining about how bad we are doing in terms of progress compared to other developed countries. It’s always nice to have hunger for achieving something tangible than running blind. People complain about corruption and money have been deprived from the main financial system, how there is a parallel economy of black money running in our country. They also say India needs a dictator who will make India a better country by taking hard decisions needed to succeed. People give example of Singapore how an undemocratic leader made a small nation like it a developed country.
But we forget to understand that there is nothing black and white everything is relative to other things. By the same way every good thing can be seen as a bad thing in relation to something even worst. When I am saying this I mean to indicate how nature’s basic laws govern human behavior. There are three simple laws of nature
1. Everything that goes up comes down with the same average speed.
2. There are always unseen side effects of every action.
3. Nothing is good or bad everything is relative to each other.
The first law clearly a state that everything which goes up will come down important thing is at what rate? It can be economy, it can be sports performance or A behemoth company like Nokia, it can be anything. So its us need to decide if we want to develop at the rate of Russia which became Soviet Union and then again Russia over just 40 years ? Or we want to be USA which became great over a period of 100 years and still the lonely super power in the world? There is a very famous equation of physics e=MC^2. It states that the mass of the object tends to infinity if velocity of it reaches to Light. Now imagine how human will be able to cope up with infinite mass? Same is true with Development, the higher the speed of development the more it becomes difficult to general public to cope up with the speed. And all know what happens when you seat in a high speed train and suddenly brakes are applied! You collapse!
We need to keep a speed at which all public can adopt easily. Yes we can increase the speed with time as society at large starts getting used to higher speed. 2. There are always unseen consequences of each action. When China decided that its population growth rate is too high and decided to curb it. Many people lauded the action but they did not thought about its consequences in a long term. In the long term china being a developing nation is facing problem of a developed nation which is higher number of elders than the youths who can feed them. Every action has a reaction it may take decades but reaction will manifest itself.
Many times slow process of democracy resolves large issues by not acting too fast on the face of a problem. The time taken to take decision is so large that many factors which are not even thought of during the problem evaluation manifest themselves and solve the problem automatically! 3. There is nothing good or bad for eternity. A behavior bad 100 years ago may become trend today as a god behavior. Same sex relationship bad few years back may be good in may societies. Freedom of speech for woman in many societies may become bad in other societies. So everything is relative, we always forget that hell and heaven are two sides of same coin. You need to decide the face currently towards you is a hell or heaven!
