Develop New Smart India with Clear Motive of Peaceful Coexistence with Natural Surroundings
Our Indian tradition &
culture has always advocated ‘Peaceful Coexistence’ in every form with
surrounding nature. natural surroundings.
Our lifestyle, social structure
& developments have always supported and taught to practice ‘सर्वधर्म-समभाव’, which in a
narrow minded version can mean ‘Religious Tolerance’ but actually meant to
convey a wider universal approach to coexist with duty, nature, lifestyle,
necessities, habits of living & non living beings in every natural form in
surrounding areas.
Our festivals, developments, creations,
celebrations & social life were designed implicitly in a holistic way to
improve & enhance welfare of our environment, surrounding nature, plants
& animals which ensured ‘सर्वे भवन्तु सुखिनः सर्वे सन्तु
निरामयाः।’ in its true sense, irrespective of anything else derived out
of selfish motives or intellectual limitations which was a Balanced Approach to
Healthy Living & Enjoying Every Aspect of Life.
In last few decades things have
changed a lot due to Change In Perception which seems to be CONTRARY to Our Traditional
Approach and Vision to progress & work for development without compromising
on our core value system, which has resulted in a number of social/political/environmental
problems which is likely to pose a serious threat to our survival &
existence on this planet.
Today we have Divided Our Core Value
System into Independent faculties & disciples which seems to have Disturbed
its Harmony and Interdependent Interdisciplinary Result Oriented Approach,
resulting in Contradiction in Efforts & Approach. Our political division of
power and ministries at highest level in Republic of India seems to represent
this, where working of one influences, obstructs, interferes in working of
others. We as a nation have seen a
continuous degradation & decline on various parameters in spite of various
ongoing schemes, plans & projects under various ministries, departments,
agencies & NGOs at different levels in India.
आ नो भद्राः क्रतवो यन्तु
विश्वतोऽदब्धासो अपरीतास उद्भिदः।देवा नोयथा सदमिद् वृधेअसन्नप्रायुवो रक्षितारो दिवेदिवे॥
In short one team is working on a
solution while hurting interests/creating problem for another. We are approaching
a problem from different counterproductive levels i.e.,
1.
On one hand we are working to develop economy,
industries and lifestyle on other we are working to tackle increasing
pollution, garbage (solid waste management) & social problems.
2. We
have different units to develop road & rail network while another for
forest & climate change.
3. We
have ministry of housing & urban affairs to increase housing & improve
living condition while another for forest & climate change as well as NGT
and Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare. Ministry of Culture
4. We
have separate ministry to develop tourism and to preserve our culture.
5. We
have Ministry of Women and Child Development as well as Ministry of Social
Justice and Empowerment & Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
6.
We have Ministry of Human Resource Development
as well as Ministry of Rural Development, Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers
Welfare..
1.
If possible we can adopt an Integrated Object
Oriented Approach instead of Independent Modular Approach for each, which means
some common characteristic having our traditional universal appeal should be
adopted & adapted.
2.
Our Core Value System must be Protected at any
cost, using a positive approach to save our tradition, culture, environment,
nature, flora &fauna on top priority basis where possible.
3.
Our social, environmental, regional traditional
approach & composition must be insured including variations in plants &
animals i.e. local cultural heritage, delicacies, crops, produce, society.
4.
Our development works like smart cities, new
India should use benchmarks to insure that the quality of ‘पञ्च तत्व’ “Five Great Elements” i.e.,
earth, water, air, space are not degraded but upgraded with progress of
project/schemes.
5.
Villages the strongest pillar of Indian
tradition & culture, living example of peaceful coexistence, ‘अतिथिदेवो
भव’ are vanishing & need immediate attention.
6.
Traditional Indian family system has a solution
to many modern social problems as well as key to our tradition & culture of
peaceful coexistence, needs promotion and protection.
7.
Our buildings, houses, colonies must reflect our
vision of peaceful coexistence within family, tradition/culture,
society/environment & must be designed with that in mind.
