Coup On Public Attitude – Its Influence On Society – 1 [people follow whatever the top persons in society follow ]

Attitude – the way in which a person thinks is his attitude. The way in which a person watches any issue is his attitude. The way in which a person receives any issue is his attitude. The way in which a person reacts or responds towards any issue is his attitude. Totally, the way in which a person leads his life is determined by his attitude.

A person’s attitude designs his life style. A person’s attitude decides his way of approach to everything, every issue and every work. Parents’ attitude constructs the foundation of their children lives. Teacher’s attitude influences the student’s education. The attitude of family leader, it maybe father or mother, or grandparent, acquires a position for that family in the society. Hence, we can deduce that the attitude of public can write the fate of their country. Totally public attitude has important role in every respect.

Because of this fact only, political parties are investing on pre-pole surveys to know what public trend is, what is public attitude, who can get the majority is how to influence the public and how to convince the public.

Because of this fact only, corporate companies and other business institutions are investing on market survey to design their advertising campaigns and to hit their products. Because of this fact only, cinema teams are conducting pre and post releasing programs of their cinemas.

Trend, fashion, patronization, popularity, image etc. are subtitles of public attitude.

But in this context the most unbelievable fact is – “BLACK GOAT-FOUR THIEVES”. The real public thinking and opinion put side. By repeated saying, the coup makers i.e. CIA, ISI, Ramoji Rao and their supporters in masks of politicians, intellectuals, No.1’s in different fields, as well as the media could create their desired opinion as public opinions. By the way, successfully they could superimpose their strategies on the faces of public. But we should express our thanks to God as such situation is getting changed to some extent since 1992 in India.

Actually, in olden days, in India, there was no media to propagate news or information. The entire news and information used to propagate through oral publicity only. In those days, media was in the form of arts, literature, and administrative concepts of king. To all of this, Temples were basic units. The temple fairs, festivals & celebrations in temples had worked as News & information centers. Totally, religious believes, religious ideas had great influence on the public attitude.

I’m not saying that all the past is good. As well, I’m not saying all the present is bad. Relative to present, in some angles, past is good. Relative to past, in some angles present is good. We have to acquire good from past & present and from all possible sources and we have to nullify evil wherever and whenever it finds. Unfortunately the vice versa is happening. In spite of people struggle, in spite of people protest, some invisible force is applying to implement “selection of evil and destruction of good”. Confirm, I can say this, and if you observe keenly, if you search for truth, you definitely agree with me.

Any way, in past i.e. centuries back, before the entry of Ghajani Mohammed, Ghori Mohammad etc. etc. Muslims in to India, before the entry of British, French etc. etc. Christians, in to India, public attitude was different. Naturally after invasions, due to the interaction of other religions, traditions, culture, a change in life style and attitude of public was occurred. Indians learnt some good and some bad from every event and it was history. We can’t blame or claim the history. We can’t change it. But we can analyze the history to know what happened, why happened. By the way, at least, we can learn how to create such environment in society in which good can be increased and bad can be decreased.

In Indian blood, there is patience, faith, and trust on God, tolerance, sacrificed nature and truth loving nature. I believe that anywhere in world, human blood is basically with the above said nature.

Here I refer you the first sentence of Russo’s social contract “Man is born free, but every where he is in chains.” Similarly, human baby is born with faithful mind. The elders spoil them. The same, Mrs. Kili Hemlin stated with her experiments about which I narrated under the caption of brought up of children. The word ‘elders’ I used for whom, they dominate the society and lead the society. Those dominators or leaders may be politicians, rulers, celebrities, media, or persons who famed as intellectuals or No.1 in their concern fields.

Because by birth itself, persons have such nature to follow the elders.

The famous GEETHA SLOKAM,

“ యద్య దాచరతి శ్రేష్ఠ స్తత్త దేవేతరో జనః
స యత్ర్పమాణం కురుతే లోక స్త దనువర్తతే ”

That means people follow whatever the top persons in society follow. People consider the parameters, which were considered by the top persons as best. This I refer under the caption of Responsibility of Media also.

That’s why in ancient India, the public attitude was maintained and carefully protected like valuable asset. Yes, it is truth that the public attitude is valuable asset. We can determine or calculate its worth: because country means not floor, not mud. Country means its people. The great Telugu poet Gurujada Apparao said those golden words.

When a stone is there on the road, nobody will notice it. We may push it with feet. No value for it? If a sculpture made that stone into beautiful idol of God? We keep it in temple and devote it. It the sculpture made that stone into the shape of beautiful doll, we keep it in the drawing room. Its cost will be much in money. How the waste stone, stone became valuable thing? The manpower created such value. The human resources are everlasting natural wealth.

In such case, in any country if people become lazy, if people become illogic, if people become liquor addicts or Narcotic addicts, how such country could develop?

In Indian culture, in Indian blood, there is an undercurrent of idealism. People think that this body, the beauty of this body, the strength of this body, the luxuries of this body, everything relates to this human body is temporary. When the day comes on which the death call on us, we have to follow it. However, our body’s beauty, strength, ability or richness, we have to leave this physical body on the earth i.e. in physical nature, and we have to follow the death. So, only spiritual life is permanent. The soul is permanent. Whatever the good or evil works we do, it is permanent. The human body will die but the fame or popularity never dies. The word what we talk, the work what we do, the way in which we behave will remain after we die.
