Intellectuals are the eyeds of society, and without intellectuals society is blind. So the leadership of every great historical movement has to be given by intellectuals.
Unfortunately most of the so called 'intellectuals' in India are themselves blind. So how can they give leadership to the Indian masses ?. My job therefore is to educate these intellectuals and give them eyes. Once that is done my job will be over, because then these intellectuals will themselves be guiding society properly
India is inevitably heading for a crisis, some kind of French Revolution, as I have repeatedly said. While on the one hand the superstructure, including all our state institutions, has collapsed and become an empty shell, the socio-economic crisis continues to build up---massive poverty, unemployment, price rise, malnourishment, lack of healthcare and good education,etc Everything is heading for a crisis.
But the Indian Revolution will not come immediately, it will be preceded by a long period of chaos, which is in fact going on, and which can be called "The Great Turbulence" lasting for 10-20 years.
One would recall that the great French Revolution of 1789 was preceded by decades of intellectual ferment, a period when great thinkers like Voltaire, Rousseau, and the French Encyclopediasts like Diderot, Helvetius, Holbach, etc attacked the existing feudal institutiions, practices and ideas.
So before the Indian Revolution takes place, and that may take 10-20 years from now, the patriotic Indian intellectuals must lay the groundwork, as the French intellectuals did before 1789.
What must you do ? You must basically attack feudal practices and ideas in India, in particular the following :
1. The caste system ( see my blog on the Caste System on justicekatju.blogspot.in ).
2. The belief that cow or Ganga are holy
3. Belief in babas
4. Sharia law, in particular oral talaq
5. Wearing of burqa or hijab
6. False heroes like Gandhi, Subhas Chandra Bose, etc
7. Writers like Tagore, the Hindi chayavadi poets, Agyeya, etc who belong to the school of art for arts sake. Instead you must support art for social purpose like Sarat Chandra, Kazi Nazrul islam, Faiz, Manto, Subramania Bharathi, Premchand, etc
You must also patiently explain to the people, while upholding freedom of religion, that all religions are false and superstitions, and the truth lies in science, which alone can solve our country's massive problems.
Our national aim must be to build a highly industrialized and prosperous country and a just modern social order in which everyone gets a decent life, and in which the standard of living of the Indian masses is constantly rising.
There must not be any compromise on these principles
