Summary/Abstract |
After independence, in spite of a very fine Constitution and the presence of leaders like Gandhi, India took a sudden turn towards accepting model of socialism as understood by the Soviets. Thus from being a country which suffered from British colonial policies it became some kind of socialist country. Great chess player Gary Kasparov once said: India is a communist country with only all its disadvantage and no advantage. That was right we lost the chance to gain economic, political and many other momentums that we should have as be progressed away from colonialism.

Summary/Abstract |
I begin by bowing my head to the wisdom and memory of Vasudevsharan
Agrawal. Years ago, when I was struggling to understand the signs and
symbols of Indic civilization strewn around me and staring at my face
to respond to them, when I was finding myself in the darkness of
ignorance about ourselves, there were only very few writers, artists
and thinkers who illuminated my way. Vasudevsharanji along with my
teachers Mani Kaul, Nirmal Verma, J. Swaminathan and Dharampalji
were among them. It was fortunate for someone living in modern India
with stupid and therefore arrogant political leadership guiding the
country to an ever deeper level of catastrophe with each passing day,
to have found the text of writers like Vasudevsharanji which can, if we
so want, take us out of the mess this country is turning into almost
unstoppably.
