`Atithi Devo Bhava' ...India could manage to send at least some of her guests back safely. India will now be remembered for terrorist attacks ... we can no longer invite any foreigner to our country nor we can take them around here confidently.
It is high time that all of us unite and take responsibility of our own land instead of leaving it in the hands of politicians. We were engaged in selfish pursuits. Teaching values became out of context. Talking about patriotism became out of fashion. What has all this resulted in? Lack of seriousness! Apathy!!
Youngsters are whiling away time in entertainment and wasteful indulgences. Middle aged people are weak and more sick than the old. All sorts of problems are falling upon us. Natural disasters, road accidents and terrorist attacks are threatening our lives. `Living' has become even more threatening.
Transformation is imperative. Let us all take up the onerous responsibility of inspiring the young generation to plunge into action. Instill a spirit of heroism. It has nothing to do about academics or degrees. To save people around, one needn't be a police officer clearing all the competitive exams.
Preparedness, attitude and some amount of training are required. We may not be able to stop or avoid destruction, but we may face situations with courage.
