GIVE NATURE A CHANCE

In the face of challenges, a person’s mind automatically tries to find a solution. Here, the matter is man versus nature. When faced with a challenge, a person would make effort for peaceful management of the situation and thus succeed. However, if a person attributes the problems or challenges to the system or an authority, he would clash with them and even perpetrate violence to vent his anger. When certain reformers study human life they observe some unwanted phenomenon, for which they coin words such as ‘discrimination’, ‘injustice’, ‘victimization’ etc. Such people should consider those persons who were able to make progress against all odds, for example Dr. B.R. Ambedkar (1891-1956) who started his life in abject poverty, but later on emerged as the principal architect of the Constitution of India. Similarly, Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam had humble beginnings but went on to hold the highest office of the country. When a person finds himself among the deprived classes of society, a law of nature begins to play a very important role in his life. He develops the incentive to achieve all that which he could not gain through the circumstances in which he was born. Had he blamed his circumstances on the system, then instead of working for his self-development he would have become negative towards the system. A life full of challenges is not due to any particular system, rather it is the way the world has been made. In such a situation if we struggle to fight with the system, our actions go against the very creation plan of God. Thus the matter does not remain ‘man versus man’ but becomes ‘man versus God’. This is why in this situation, peaceful management alone can be effective on the path to success. o Adjust to the Divine Plan A person has only two choices—either he should adjust to the divine plan and be successful or go against it and be ready to face failure. A life full of challenges is not due to any particular system, rather it is the way the world has been made.
