TRIBUTE TO A GREAT MAN .
Human greatness and its recognition hardly go together. It is a tragic irony that a very few of such great men have duly been recognized , much less honored in their life-time even by their own people
.the people for whom they lived, suffered and died.` They are denunciated by their own people. When the heroes ,
the great men
are alive, they are misunderstood ,misjudged, abused, attacked, and even persecuted if not put to death. it is only after their death ,when controversies are over and when the distance of time dispels the mists of misunderstanding , prejudice and conflict of interests, that the great men receive their real honor and place ,and then shine in all their glory, but, they are then beyond the reach of the cries uttered, the tears shed and the praises showered.
The great men of the world , who illuminate the course of history in all ages, are men of ideas, of vision and of farsighted imagination. They are seekers of truth and justice , and always refuse to support wrong, injustice and oppression, and fight to establish truth over falsehood .They are dreamers of highest human happiness and of equal right for affluent and deprived .
Actually heroes are indeed a group of special persons, and they live for mankind at large ,and strive all their lives to bring about the establishment of the highest humanity in the entire world .obviously they are quite different from the rest of human beings.
Whenever they begin to promulgate their principles and ideas, few support them, but many oppose them and are abused, condemned and criticized by people., and when they strike blind prejudices and superstitions they are fanatically resisted and often persecuted. In case his ideas are against the established system of society ,the people who have vested interest in it , force the government to punish him for promulgating his ideas. even when they begin to succeed in their mission, the people, in the height of their blindness, refuse to recognize their achievements. actually most of the people are selfish ,egocentric,, submissive ,compromising and apathetic to the interests of their fellow beings, ,the great men are wedded to their ideas, and to their mission to eradicate injustice,, cruelty and oppression from the face of earth. This makes others jealous of them.
It is only after the death of the great man that his ideas, his untiring efforts and his passion of patriotism become the centre of attention of those who either failed or refused to understand them.
Dr aurangzeb hafi, you are surly one of them[/B].
I have written this all for real heroes and great men, not for actors and cricketers ,who are the heroes of people like stumpers, yousaf khan ,jayron and justan observer.
So doctor nothing is new with you. Sir it is our tradition.
But the tradition of heroes like you also going on, and all the sufferings and misunderstandings could not discourage the people like you.
IF YOUR HEAD IS STONED,IT IS BECAUSE IT STANDS HIGHER THAN THE REST.
