Good Governance: Need of the
Hour
The natural resources have
never been inadequate for the consumers on this planet. But this is a pre-man
story. Man brought greed with his advent on the earth. Greed began imbalance in
nature and its resources. This has brought us to the present crisis of
distribution of the natural as well as man made resources. It is Governance
that makes this crisis intense or dilute.
Man is born dialectical as is
the universe itself. Balance between the good and the bad in man is a utopia.
Good Governance leads mankind to this ideal state despite the fact that the
utopia is an illusion.
Governance involves
aggregation of power. It may be needed but it is surely a double edged sword.
The history of man kind proves the worst use of this aggregated power. It is
greed, ego, ambition, dominance, hate, luxury, lust, etc. that have ruled over
temperance, love, kindness, cooperation, humanity, need, etc.
Good governance is a notion,
mechanism and enforcement where the good rules the bad in us. The challenge
is:- Goodness seldom tends to unite. The way is:- Make the balance between the
good and the bad within us, the chief concern of the education system. Ensure
its inculcation in every individual.
Mind: balance is subject to
both inculcation and enforcement.
Thus the gist of good
governance lies in transforming each individual into his/her true self
“divine”. Education is the instrument. Spirit for it is the force. Man’s skill
and intelligence are the assurance to sure success.
Growing anguish among people
following rising awareness of their rights has pushed the rulers everywhere to
introduce good governance or to expose. Let the good rule over the bad or
nobody can help mankind woo its demise.

ReplyDeleteI like your writings Mr Goyal. Often the urgent needs, bring huge amount of energy, courage and action to the honest idealist personality. United they are glued moving towards a common goal. As long as they fight the most urgent needs of change, all remain focused on the outer "the enemy". The problem is to keep the track, stay humble and do not let hubris get a grip, when all is calming down...Many heroes are transformed, because of weakness of the self...lack of continous self reflection and it happen when they start to feel comfortable and sitting steady at their seats...A perfect nurtured soil for Ego growing - So keep them busy, earning trust is a good idea. Headless and blind admiration of an honest, ambitious leader is the worst thing that could happen to him or her. Cause they are human beings as well, and we are the same, same and will always be, equal in god and bad... Thank you for an inspiring piece of reading !
