World Quick-Marching Back To Uncivilization!!?

World Quick-Marching Back To Uncivilization!!?

Today, around the world lies, lies and lies are being described as truth for selfish and mean-minded gains...and truth, as lies. Where is the world headed?
There have been fantastic advances in science, tech and knowledge over the past centuries...and yet, today, humanity appears to be reverting back to ideas steeped in pettiness and fanaticism. All around the world today we see such examples. Ideas that will ultimately prove self-harming, retrogressive. If developed countries revert to such policies they will surely slide backward in progress.
In still-to-develop countries the consequences of such policies will lead to total failure to progress, to develop. And millions could suffer the consequences. It could make any such country a pariah of the developed world. All, only to satisfy the whims and malice of narrow-minded policy makers.

Returning...To The Heart's Home

Returning...To The Heart's Home

Yes, I've returned for a few months to India. To a house that was once our home. In Bangalore (now, officially, Bengaluru). To a house full of old photographs. And memories. Of my mother. I called her Amachi. Of my wife and children. And 'Bauji,' my wife's father. Wonderful memories of the children growing up, going to school or college. And then, one by one, leaving us to study in America.
My father (whom I lost early), my mother, my wife, Bauji, and my second daughter now live only in my memories.

Those times are gone and will never return. Except in remembrance!

Helpful Hints - 2: On Jumping To Conclusions!

One of the things most of us do is jump to conclusions...on the basis of what someone says or does, drawing our own quick interpretation of what that person meant or intended. What that person did or said may have been completely casual or thoughtless. But on the basis of a quick conclusion we then try to retaliate, complicating matters. Sometimes....beyond repair.

Having Witnessed History in the Making

Having Witnessed History in the Making

From childhood I have witnessed events of history in the making, World War II. Air-raid sirens and search-lights scouring the sky. Lights were switched off as we drew black curtains across windows. I remember peeping out, watching WACs and men of the air raid patrol wearing ARP armbands going around, ensuring shops were shuttered and people went off streets. On VE Day (Victory in Europe) I watched British soldiers dancing and celebrating outside the Dadar Bar in old Bombay.
The warship S.S.Fort Stikine, with gun-powder and gold in its hold, exploded in Bombay harbour and gold bars hurtled into some people's homes, while the whole dock-side burned.
Then came the delirium of India's Independence Day. Nehru's emotional 'midnight hour' speech and crowds celebrating on the streets, particularly around the Gateway of India.
Later I witnessed more events of history unfold, the successes and failures of the country in freedom.
Having captured some of that history in my novel Dreams of One Country, I am working on a novel that captures more of the later history of the country...and the world.

If, in a country, children are afraid to go to school, the people must wake up and take the corrective steps needed...to progress as an enlightened nation.
If, in a country, narrow-minded, self-centered individuals lacking in core ideals promote divisiveness for their immediate gains, thus provoking other narrow-minded individuals, the people must unite to save their country from the short-sighted heartless dividers.
If, in a country, elections are used to discriminate against sections of people, only the united public response can ensure the country can rise as a truly modernized developed nation.

A World Divided - 8: Values Under Siege!

Earlier, it seemed that lying, cheating and bribery were every day events, even in elections, only in countries still in the process of developing and modernizing. Today civilized values - including truth, honesty, caring for others - are under siege even in countries believed to be modern and progressive.
Self-centered individuals in key positions think only of their immediate short-term benefits. They do not bother about the consequences...to others or the future of their country.
To build a truly modern developed nation is not easy: it takes generations of dedicated effort. So also, hopefully, a modern developed nation's in-built corrective systems will prevent retrogressive steps by anyone.

A World Divided - 7: Highway to the Future!

In spite of incredible advances in technology, science, our knowledge of the world and universe, there are some whose mindsets remain unchanged - who are inclined to pettiness, malice, superstition and a discriminatory, divisive attitude. Divisive acts can bring others who are ignorant and mean out of the woodwork. So it goes. Today's world seems to be competing in the clowning glory of pettiness!   
Still, in truly refined developed countries people are united despite differences - like a united family. Wise and fair laws safeguard their future as nations that care for and protect all citizens - even if any self-centered individuals for their own immediate benefit recite mean fairy-tales to divide the people!
For every aspiring country those developed nations light the highway to the future, the way to elite modernization. Resorting to superstition and malice to divide and target sections of the people will surely hold back any country from rising and joining the best developed, modernized nations.

Lighting the Way to a United World!

Lighting the Way to a United World!

The French Revolution proclaimed the humanitarian ideals of Liberty, Equality, Fraternity.
Today, despite great advances in science and technology, the world is in disarray! Instead of further progress in civilizing the bigotry of unscientific mindsets and selfishness for immediate, short-term gains divide countries and people. In this 21st Century we ignore the Humane Values that can Unite people on this one earth we share!
I had seen India achieve Independence. And I had seen some of the problems the country faced from the outset. But, always, I had believed India had the talent and resources to rise...and join the world's elite developed nations. But talents were often misdirected and resources misappropriated. I wanted to find ways to overcome pettiness, malice, people-dividing mindsets, so that India could rise to full potential as a united, progressive modern nation...at the same time, light the way for every aspiring country to rise and join the world's truly modern nations. I scribbled ideas for a novel on the theme. After graduating from medical college in north India and marrying, my wife helped me on the novel. She typed my scribbles on a typewriter and discussed ideas with me. In time, over the years, she typed a 450-page tome. Years after she passed away I took it up again at my son's place in Oregon, bearing the pain of losing loved people including a daughter, and condensed it to 140 pages.
Instead of trying to find a publisher my son suggested I put it on Amazon books. From there readers around the world have downloaded the e-book or got a print copy (with bigger type-size, if required, for easier reading) home-delivered by Amazon. 
That in short is the story of writing our inspiring, futuristic novel called Dreams of One Country.
(All future rights - for translation into languages, publishing, movie script etc. - remain with me.)

On Writiing a New 'Unite-the-World!' Novel: Why? How?

On Writing a New 'Unite-the-World!' Novel: Why? How?

In my earlier blog Story of a Story: Tomorrow's United Rainbow of Nations! I had stated the forward purpose of the theme of the novel Dreams of One Country: That India's inspired ascent to join the developed elite nations lights a way of Hope for many countries, which could lead on to building a peaceful, humane world: a truly progressive rainbow of nations, helping each other when needed! Tomorrow's united world!

In fact, the League of Nations after World War I and the United Nations organization towards the end of World War II were both set up as foundations for building a peaceful, united and developed world. However those hopes remain unfulfilled. The countries of the world remain divided. Within countries  people remain divided. Acquiring wealth by any means remains priority objective. Walls within walls. And despite man's fantastic progress in varied fields of science and technology in the 20th and 21st centuries, including space exploration, old mindsets haven't changed.
Surely, human intelligence that made such amazing scientific progress possible can overcome people-dividing ideologies and fanaticism to build Tomorrow's World of developed nations. United. At peace. Sharing progressive objectives. Promoting the ideas of our shared humanity. And helping each other when needed. That in short is why I'm writing a new novel tentatively titled Dreams of One World.
