shocking. Here is one of the world's great dramas; an ancient, vast and
crowded land committed to the most formidably challenging excersise in mass
democracy. It is a spectacle in which hope, pride, paradox and uncertainty
mingle and struggle. It is conducted on the whole, and to India's credit in
the open. The lasting memories of the land are hospitality, kindness, good
humor and generosity. Here is a society of over a 1000 million people,
growing by a million a month, divided and united by language, caste,
religion and regional loyalties. It has often been described as a
functioning anarchy; and it is in many ways an amiable one, of marvelous
fluidity and tolerance. Indeed, the true Indian motif is not the Taj Mahal,
the elephant or the patient peasant behind the ox drawn plough. It is the
crowd, the ocean of faces in the land of multitudes, endlessly stirring,
pushing and moving. It is in this human circulation that one sees India's
colour, variety, busyness, and, senses also its power, vitality and
grandeur. |
