Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been engaging the country on various aspects of pride in our civilisation, history, and achievements of our forefathers. The sense of decolonisation stems from the need to yoke off the baggage of colonial thinking – without giving up the benefits of engaging with the outside world. This engagement should be from a position of pride & confidence and not from a position of weakness & defensiveness. As citizens, it would be worthwhile to implement small but significant changes in our day today lives, that will cumulatively impact our country’s journey towards prosperity in a positive manner. The impact will be at multiple levels – individual, family, social & economic.
The following may be some “lifestyle changes” that is required from us to make ourselves Kartavya focused on our country’s progress.
This is the intrinsic Bharatiya way of life, that had generated enough prosperity for our country till the foreign Muslim invasion and British rule happened. (Ref Angus Madison’s work) It is now important, to rediscover our way of life in the backdrop of the very historic Rama Mandir rejuvenation. And this lifestyle is indeed tried & tested, hence must be implemented in our individual lives without any delay. There cannot be a better way to usher in Rama Rajya – than taking care of our health, wealth, time, and happiness. Not to speak of the immense happiness coming out of being in a strong & prosperous society – that Bharat rightly deserves to be like in the earlier days.
