Satya means truth; graha refers to insistence. It is a resistance; passive protest; it means there is a conflict. Like an individual is divided between inner and outer; divided between inner soul and outer action. That division develops conflict. This is a disease of this century.
Non-violence is not an opposite for violence. Non-violence doesn't refer to love. Even love is not an opposite for violence. In fact, there are no opposites. Women is not an opposite to men. Men is men and women is women. Somehow, we developed opposites for every thing.
We look at Sonia and Modi are as opposites; then how do we look at Modi and Advani. In Ayotha days, Modi and Advani were one whole BJP; but now they are divided.
Advani and Modi were considered as Guru and Shishya. This is the truth. So all future Gurus; be careful about your Shishyas. Only Shishyas cause sufferings to their Gurus; nobody else.
If anyone seriously considering about starting a political party; for a moment think about Advani. It is a very good lesson for all future leaders.
So, BJP as an organization, right now, divided into two parts; one is Advani; another is Modi. All the new comers may follow Modi model of going up in the hierarchy. All the old timers may suffer like Advani.
Lord Rama saves Atal Bihari Vajpayee. Right now, Vajpayee may suffer physical pain, because of aging; but escaped from this mental distress.
This is a new model of politics. In olden days, when a leader felt confidence, that leader quit the parent organization and used to start his own organization.
That is what Annadurai did; MGR did. If Modi and Amit Shah were so confident, they could have quit BJP and started a new organization. But this kind of hijacking is new kind of technique. Just like those hijackers, entering into cockpit; ask the pilots to vacate their seats; and hijackers take control of the plane.
Every new technique is being challenged by another person. Subramanian Swamy is conspicuos by absence. Swamy was absent during Obama's visit and Republic day celebration. Now, Swamy is in abroad avoiding the meet in Bangaluru.
Swamy also has no plan to quit; no plan to revive his old organization. Swamy follows the same path of Modi. Modi took it from Advani. Swamy will grab it from Modi.
Right now, anyone could become a member of BJP, by giving a missed call. When you walk around the vegetable market in Mylapore, a few may ask you to join in BJP, by giving missed call. It is like MLM, multi level marketing.
In MLM, all the new comers would strengthen the position of the old veterans. But, in BJP missed call model, the new comers would challenge the veterans.
You cannot walk into a communist office and become a member. It's not that easy. When you walk in, they would talk to you and explain you about their philosophy and sacrifices that you may need to make. Then they give you a few books.
All those traditional party workers dedicate their life for the political party. In their home, they have the picture of Stalin, Lenin, Karl Marx. It is like a marriage; for some, it is more than a marriage.
In Amit Shah and Modi corporation, people join; just like flirting or dating; no serious commitment. All these accumulation of garbage may pollute the entire organization.
With his silence and satyagraha, Advani effectively made others to talk.
