Comment on Gladson’s Burden By Mallika Sarabhai by ohn Denis Horo

This is the price one pays for standing besides harsh truths of life. At times, I fail to understand the complexities of human mind. I think – these are basically ‘war’ among various ideologies and they cannot see eye-to-eye. That’s why Gladson is trapped between the two opposite confronting forces who are struggling to prove their own supremacy and strength. That reminds me the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi. Just imagine the paradox – He was killed by his own countryman! One can expand his imagination and find some logic for this brutal act. The questions posed by Gladson are apt, logical and very pertinent, aren’t they? Anyone has any answer? I can understand the agony and mental turmoil, if I may say so, of Gladson because I, too am an Adivasi. In fact, one need not be an Adivasi or Aggrieved to understand these emotions.

The very frankness of your to accept the failure is an act of bravery which Gandhi ji muct have appreiated, but looking for some one to fulfill your dream is not as per his principles. You can do it alone. It need not be exactely as per Gandhi jis lines but you can frame yourown goal and truthful ways to do it.
I too work alone, but do join hands when I fond some one working selflessly for marginalised. One doesnt have to do very large work, can start with smaller work around.
Comments are to vent your feelings….it may be from a person who is very true to his words and may be from a frustated person or a negative person. The reader has to take outthe good and positive part of it.
If you ever cme to Jharkhand try to meet TANA BHAGATS, who have been the true Gandhians. They worship Gandhi ji. There day start with worship and chants in praise of Gandhi ji, they follow Gandhi ji as Guru , dont drink, dont smoke, dont lie, dont eat non veg, wear white khadi and beieve in complete ahimsha.
It may surprise many, but their struggle for freedom started before Gandhi ji’s protest in South Africa. The two group met in Ramgarh Congress session, and there on wards Tana Bhagats, joined Gandhi ji in true sense.
They are a small group now, being marginalised due to changing land rules and increesing greed around their villages.
Some decent people are trying to keep them and their faith alive here from Ranchi. Thy want so little, just education of their children in villages, some self employment for their livelyhood, or help in the agriculture, so that they can grow their food.

none among the commentators have any desire to unite and work for the change. They comment for the sake of commenting. Everybody is oppressed by the compulsion of earning livelihood. Decades pass, generations pass, memories of Gandhi continues, but none come forward to initiate the change.

I am the one in search of people, as I have failed to work alone.

The Young India Foundation (YIF) is a registered non-profit non-governmental social welfare organization based in Karnataka, India. It is started by a group of friends who are like-minded from North-Karnataka working in Bangalore and working towards social development.

We are focussing on underprivileged students of rural area, women and tribes.

The primary and sole aim of the YIF is to promote, strengthen, create, manage and sustain the overall development needs of art, culture, Philosophy, spirituality, food, shelter, clothing, education, empowerment, health, training and development, networking etc. sectors of human beings in India and abroad.
