Forbes and Modi's bleak re-election prospects ..

I was reading Forbes magazine December '18 issue when I came across an interesting analysis of whats happening to the Indian corporate sector, banks and loans etc. It was very surprising to find being election year, how the present PM Narendra Modi, with poor knowledge on Indian economy, with his equally ignorant Finance Minister wanted to play around with the RBI funds.  PM was finding it difficult to kickstart the economy with investments. He is interested in tapping the free reserves of cash with India's Central Bank,  Reserve Bank of India.

But the fact is RBI has not given this cache of reserves it has with any body else, right from India; independence in 1947. Now would it like to give this excess amount to the tune of about 9 lakh crores to the Government to squander during this election year and get kicked out after elections for damaging the country and its economy like never before.

The Indian PM Modi would now be painfully recollecting how carelessly he ridiculed, mocked, derided, taunted, made fun of and initiated attacks against the former Economist PM Dr Manmohan Singh. With not even one percent of economic knowledge of Dr MMS, Modi thought he could win by spreading lies.

But now Modi understands ruling a country like India is not just talking, it is not just boasting about your lam ideologies nor building Rs 3000 crore statues, it requires lot of intelligence and knowledge of the economy.

Will the next government coming up, Modi and his vicious gang of fascist ideologues, having already put papers, pull down Sardar Patel's statue or replace it with one of Mahatma Gandhi  is another question making the rounds.

One aspect Modi conveniently forgot, which exposed his extreme communal upbringing and fascist, intolerant ideologies, was that Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was the greatest son of Gujarat and India and not Sardar Patel. Patel did play a role but not to the extent of Mahatma Gandhi.

Modi, please do not try to rewrite India's history ..

A couple of questions to indian Prime Minister Shri Narendra Damodar Modi ..

Two simple questions to the Prime Minister of India, Shri Naredra Damodar Modi.

1. Did you or your party taking the help of outsiders (rich or poor) resort to manipulating the Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) put up by the Election Commission of India or their representatives to decide on the election outcomes during the last General Elections to the House of Representatives in India, the Lok Sabha in 2014 ?

2. If your or your party are held guilty by a Court of Law or the public to have influenced malafide the election verdict of the 2014 elections, are you ready to accept the verdict and bow out of office in disgrace, for manipulating the sacred Democratic practices of the Republic of India for the sake of petty religious politics and financial gains ?

Expecting an answer !!

Are we ready to go for reconciliation with the Jacobites ??

Yesterday I was surprised to hear of our priest talking about forgiveness and reconciliation at the Sunday evening cottage prayer. He was talking how we all should forgive and go for reconciliation in our daily lives. How we need to be so forgiving that we finally become God-like in our approach ..

It was quite interesting to listen to this call for spiritual exhortation. It is indeed good if all of us are ready to forgive our brethren..

But is the church and the priestly class ready for that ? Are they ready to forgive the Jacobites and give back the churches where they are in majority and go for reconciliation ?

Finally the conclusion we had in the meeting was, we will talk but we will not practice.  We will continue to be hypocrites ! Useless and worthless !!

Preaching is for the people, the smart priests will neither practice their preaching nor show us how to practice it, they will just continue preaching. Preaching and putting it into practice are two totally different things.

Hypocrisy has entered all spheres of our lives.

If the Orthodox Christian church and its leaders are not ready for forgiveness and reconciliation with the Jacobites, peace will never return to the church.

Jesus never told us that reconciliation and forgiveness is conditional, according to the decision by the Supreme Court.

Even to this day, the Orthodox church leadership can extend a hand of peace and brotherhood to the Jacobites and engage with them in talks and reconciliation aiming to resolve the dispute between the Orthodox and Jacobite faction which has been there for decades.

Somewhere I feel the leadership is at fault .. The leadership on both sides have acted irresponsibly ..

All attention and opposition is only for acquiring the wealthy churches ..
