Who is An Administrator ?

WHAT IS THE role of an administrator in the society? Going by English definition, its one who administers. Fortunately the Indian civilization and Sanskrit language is very advanced and has appropriate words for everything. Kshatrias are the people who are supposed to be the rulers. Who is a Kshatria? Someone born of a Rajput father? No, its very clearly written in our scriptures that Brahmans, Kshatria, Vaishya and Shudra are four classes of all human being based on their qualities and their deeds. So Kshatrias are (kshati =damage, Tra=destroyer). The one who destroys those who damage the society.

If someone grabs other's property or insults his family or denies their rights, or disturbs people from performing their duties, such a person is to be controlled or eliminated buy the kshatrias. On the contrary what is happening today? Mafias, smugglers, criminals, cheats, frauds, black marketeers, rapists, dacoits, murderers are working hand in glove with the ruling elite. The entire administration has become void of 'niti'. 'Niti' is derived out of Naitikta (Morality).

Morality comes out of sacrifices and renunciation. But today the majority of the administrators are freely indulging in enmassing wealth and sense gratification. Then how can there be peace and prosperity in the society? The administrators have to set an example. Unfortunately, there is total lack of moral leadership in the country.

The immoral forces are dominant and aggressive. Irony of the situation is that people claim to resort to Gandhian methods of satyagrha when they are raided by C.B.I. Arif Md. Khan and custom officers of Delhi Airport are good example of this phenomenon. Imagine the fate of the country where the reform movement is also being led by those who need to reform themselves.

The problem started when the centralisation of power was done to benefit few individuals. There is not a single party who can claim to identify 500 honest upright and clean candidates for the next Lok Sabha out of 900 million people. They will not do it also because it does not suit their interest to strengthen democracy which would ultimately weaken them. But all those who feel concerned for this nation and who are unhappy with the state of affairs should come forward to provide sufficient opportunity for such leadership to grow at the grass root level.

India is a great country. Those who curse Indian people have not understood the beauty of this civilization. Pessimism creeps out of self-negation or of compromising attitude. Those who are clean and have moral force they never lose hope and keep on trying.

Our appeal will have a force only when we are morally strong and we have full conviction for what we stand. So we should try to solve problems that are present within our surroundings within the resources at our disposal. We have to ask ourselves, are we making an intelligent use of our existence? Or are we living an animas life of eating, sleeping, mating and defending out interests.
