It is not a
question of my role or someone else`s role,it is rather a sacred duty ,of every
socimal(social+animal) and this is not just a matter of talk ,it is a heavenly
sentiment to be felt immersing in the
ocean of one`s own wisdom.In Hindu mythology there is a belief that human body
is made up of five elements Jal(Water),Agni(Fire),Vayu(Air),Aakash(Sky) and
Bhumi(Soil) and all these things are
prominent matters of our planet,rather more than a planet,the Earth.So we are
bound to play major roles as citizens of
Earth because we are indebted to her.
The very
fact that we are writing essays for our roles depicts that there is a lack of
intellectual awareness and it`s a pity!The problem with human psychology is it
knows what should be done and what shouldn`t be, but every time denies it.It is
surely negligence towards wisdom and closing mind`s eye towards the sight of
the bigger picture.We have a mind to think and no doubt we have utilized it
through the ages and enhanced our lives but do we ever bother to reflect how
all these ideas came to us.All these came to us via various elements of Earth.
Just
reflect,if there were no trees,Newton`s genius would have never come into
existence,Shakespeare`s greatness wouldn`t have reflected on paper.No rubber
tyres,no Bible,no Geeta.Without earthly
elements the magic of science and arts
and any creative thing would have been just an illusion.This list will go on
and on,but will not end.All these are my opinions but they may vary from person
to person but the eternal truth is truth
and none can deny that .
Nature and
earth has given us what we possess today,then why should I or anyone hesitate
to play respective roles as citizens of Earth! Earth is all powerful but still
she cries because she loves her citizens,she loves me,she knows that if her
citizens deny to play their roles then the doomsday is pretty near.For my
benefit only I should listen to her mourn cries.One thing that is important
is,both Geeta and Bible teaches to perform duties selflessly.But in today`s
times very few adopt this wisdom path
breaking the shackles of personal wants and gains and that`s why I have my
selfish reasons to play my role as a
citizen of Earth.My mind also questions
what shall I achieve alone,performing my role but at the very moment
soul assures that change can be brought.
Change
starts from the thought to change and then comes the action which ultimately
becomes a habbit ,so change starts with a single person and others join if it
is positive.Swami Vivekanada said “Each soul is a divine potential”So it means
everyone can bring the change I can also
bring it just there is the need to kindle the light within me and miracles will
follow.
Now,in this
light speedy modern era my role as a citizen of earth should be to do small
things in a great way.I can start with the internet,yes I firmly believe it has
great potential to bring revolution.My role should not be limited to conserving
resources and organise seminars etc, because efforts have already been done in
that direction and I believe they can do little but changed mentality can do
more,negligence can be erased with filtered thoughts because, now every person is available in the global
village called the internet and frank interaction with logical arguements
through web cams and networking sites can be marvellous tools for reminding the
citizens about their roles towards Earth.I should portray Earth as mother to
the kids and once they believe that , it will be of value for life.If everyone
takes only one step ahead change will be many folds.
Yes, change
is possible and for that I have to be the torch bearer of the revolutionary
changes I aspire to bring and the roles I want to play as a citizen of Earth.
