......trouble in Paradise.......!!!!!!

....recent developments in MALDIVES have cast a pall of gloom & eclipsed the sunny side of life here.The Democracy ushered in 2008 with multiparty elections brought in a new leader as its President only to be thrown out unceremoniously by the evolving situation last week.There is a new govt.mired in controversy about succession & truth is yet to come out as to what exactly happened on Tuesday the 7th instant.There is no point in going into the merits of the case since these are the birth pangs of a nascent democracy and one must endure the pain for a resounding institutionalised democracy.I am sure these events will further galvanise the strong supporters of Democracy & the Republic will prosper.When leaders falter and become unpopular the writings are on the wall......!The subcontinent politics is fast becoming a politics of self service as is evidenced by the no.of scams in India riddled by clinging to power by hook or by crook and destructive criticism al round....!  the mediocrity of political actors have far transcended the threshold of tolerant limit long time ago & with no signs of respite...!...the love for money & power the two triggers of self grandiosement is it seems engulfed our political & general mindset & also carnal desires both in electronic & print & real life have shrouded all creativity...! All the age old dogmas are stressed & weeded out in a rapid fashion leading to a change in the essence of a civilised society.This yug is definitely the yug of physical material rather than the exalted altar of the intellect.....!
Believe me,the good things of life are not the wealth and enjoyment of it but peace & tranquility of the mind of the higher intellect.......!!!!!! so these skirmishes here look very mundane and wastage of precious time.......!!!!!
