In this episode, we delve into the reasons behind the crass and manipulative nature of our political class. We also reflect on our own responsibility in this matter and discuss what citizens can start doing to make a difference.

One starting point is to ask questions and understand what should be reviewed as part of our ‘national dashboard’. While we recognize that much of our country may not be able to do this, we also have a significant corporate-trained, educated, and upwardly mobile class accustomed to rigorous reviews at work. We need to apply that same rigor to comment on how we are doing as a nation.

This episode also features a translation of Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore’s poem "Where the Mind is Without Fear."

We would love to hear more from you and continue the conversation with 'Tum Baat Toh Karte.'

    VERY WELL & CORRECTLY SAID ; " INDIA NEEDS HEROS , WE DO NOT NEED TAMASHMI .... ELECTIONS ARE , WE MUST CHOOSE CORRECTLY , HOWEVER WE CAN NOT & SHOULD NOT STAY AWAY FROM DAY TO DAY DEMOCRACY ... "

    The future is bright, the people are taking the right decision. We can see new INDIA. Your insights matters a lot. Reminding Tagore's poem, timely!!!

    "staying in a bubble" is the true picture. Lack of empathy, I think, comes from an ingrained belief that our good fortune is because of our Karma from past life and vice versa. Once you blindfold yourself with that belief you can live happily in the Bubble.

    You have rightly pointed out that if something goes wrong, we should speak, but the problem is that before any word comes out from our mouth, Whatsapp University grabs the other person in an echo chamber. If you speak against his beliefs, he won't speak with you again. However, We will continue to speak the truth, but social media has created different versions of thruth. Now, the only hope is AI. If that fails, then we will never see a world that Tagore has visioned.

    While I may partly agree with you, after having analysed India's current state of affairs I do not make politicians responsible for it. It is the middle class which emerged post independence is responsible for it then the political class. This middle class is - doctors, engineers, scientists, academics, professionals in industry and all levels of government employees including people of all India services. They have corrupted politicians rather vice a versa.

    EXCELLENT TALK WITH EACH POINT VERY NICELY PRESENTED . LOVELY .
  • @dhanaazm7897
    What an insight into ourselves as Indians. I am guilty of losing patience and have done a lot of name calling. I have never felt so ashamed and helpless as I have in these past 10 years. Your presentation asks for reason and logic and the tragedy is that I have met educated and logical individuals talking nonsense. It is traumatic to a certain extent. Your talks are inspiring and helps one to connect with oneself. I have shared the video with a lot of my colleagues. Thank you for the sanity you help some of us to gain. ❤🙏
