According to Swami Vivekananda, Yoga is a process of involving, unification of Holistic education which will generate compassion in all human beings as extension of self and also awaken aspiration for the highest wisdom. Each soul is potentially divine with omnipotence, omnipresence and omniscience, avoiding manifestation, we can realize the same through selfless service, assimilation and wisdom through deeper introspection, devotion to the almighty or some special psychophysical practice, the essential divinity, unity of all creation has to be realized through unconditional love which can be achieved through Yoga.
We believe in “VASUDAIVA KUTUMBAKAM” that means the whole world is one family, which includes not only human being but also all animal, birds, trees existing on this earth. We also believe in “let the knowledge come from all the directions” - Rigveda, We accept all likeminded people to come together with their wisdom to make the earth a place to live, through our associations and Partnerships.
WATER: - Water is one of the PanchaMahaBoothas as per our shastras as well as our living conditions as we cannot live without water. Earlier civilizations were grown only near river basins, which show water is the most important requirement for life itself. But unfortunately in the name of growth and development we have started misusing, over using water, without bothering for its conservation. Earlier our ancestors were praying water as Goddess with respect.
PROBLEM: - We have made water as commodity and started dealing with it for money, as a mark of civilization. Conservation was basically to keep forest intact, sand intact or using it to the minimum. But now we have started using Forest for everything with the intention of making money. Sand is the costliest building materials now.
GREATER PROBLEM: - We have stopped looking at the perspective of all human beings. We are becoming so selfish in adding District, Region, State, Party, Politics, Language, culture and many more things to it to make still worse.
District, Region and State: - Many districts in the state itself are not prepared to give water to many other districts restricting in the name of Environment, doing nothing to preserve it in the macro level. Same way in case of Region, State.
Party, Politics and Culture: - Now we have started including Party, Politics and Culture but forgetting we are ONE NATION.
WHAT WE CAN DO: Consider water for all Indians, including future generations. We can educate ourselves about the concept of ‘VASU DAIVA KUTUMBAKAM’ it is not only for telling, advertising, publicity, questioning, quarreling subject. It is the matter to be understood, felt, and experienced about the greatness of our MOTHER LAND. As a Nation of Yoga can we think of ‘SWADHYAYA’ which is given by Lord Pathanjali, Father and Founder of Yoga.
What could be done: We feel following type of people can bring real change in the beginning...
As a Great Politician: Think how many hours I am spending for SOLVING water problems with my own voters in my own constituency, in my district, state, in meetings, discussions, Cabinet meetings, meetings with other chief ministers, central ministers, Prime Ministers. Now let us request all our Political leaders to take up this issue. Example could be our own Prime Minister having lot of concern, respect for water and rivers.
As a Great Journalist: - Think how much time we are sparing to write articles for the solution of problem of Water, with details of its problems and its solutions… Now I request all my brothers and sisters journalists to help, motivate, inspire, educate, and guide common public like me to do something on the principles of NON VIOLENCE, CONSTRUCTIVE, UNDERSTANDING WOKRING WITH BUIDLING NATION WITH PRIDE WITHOUT AN WATER PROBLEM for the next generations also
As a Great Civil Engineers: - Think how we can link all out Tanks, rivers without any problem to environment, forest, sand and people living around rivers. Can we work as a social work to create great knowledge like SIR MV a greatest engineer from Karnataka.
Ex:-TirunelveliDist in Tamil Nadu.
As a Great Advocate :- Think how we can work as Legal advisers to our Govt and people about all legal problems of water, river water using, construction increasing the height of dams / tanks / channels / connecting links to tanks, rivers etc.,
WHY PADAYATRA: - My dear brothers and sisters in Karnataka, Can we make a beginning to create awakening of all our brothers and sisters in our Nation to know about the problems of WATER and its SOLUTIONS, by having National Water Mission. Understanding the problem and its solution itself is very important which can be done by a SOCIAL WORKER with great understanding of life and its purpose. Not all can do this but definitely all can do support this movement by supporting in their own way for the following things.
