‘The Idea of Injustice’

(This Posting has been inspired by an Article, ‘Fueled by Injustice’, in The Economic Times today, ET NOW) .

Nobel Laureate Amartya Sen in his book, ‘The Idea of Justice’ which took him 25 years to write, explains Natural Justice. He says ‘Our First Sentiment is One of Injustice Rather than Justice’ as a Natural Sense. He could have named his book ‘The Idea of Injustice’ as well. Knowing what Injustice means, we can then easily move to Justice. It is when we know our ‘weaknesses’, only then we can move to eradicate them and make them our ‘strengths’.

Philosophically speaking, all living beings thrive on ‘The Idea of Injustice’ right from the Womb to Tomb. They develop expertise to live on others, or by marginalizing others in whatever manner. Their energies are directed to unleash their ‘destructive power’, whereas they should be applying it to generate their ‘constructive power’. ‘That makes You What You Are in the Real Sense; physically, mentally, emotionally & spiritually’.

Looking after the less endowed, bothering for concerns of the others, creating ‘right vibes’ in the System, seeing things dispassionately, mitigating ‘self-interest’ to an extent, with a view to optimize delivery to the System are some of the attributes we need to cultivate. It is only then that we are a useful member of the Social System. Mind You, all this pays You directly.

Amartya Sen views that ‘all our policies relate to injustice because none of our policies, even ones like the Employment Guarantee Scheme, will make the world perfectly just, it will only make the world a little unjust’.

We have our Role cut, Friends!

Motto of the Indian Military

"The Safety, Honour and Welfare of your Country come first, always and every time.

The Honour, Welfare and Comfort of the Men you command come next.

Your Own ease, Comfort and Safety come last, always and every time".

Can we translate the Indian Military Motto in our ‘day-to-day’ working, and ‘national life’?

'Sector Life' can enrich manifold if we keep the self-interest last. Let Us work for 'Sab Ka Bhala'. Everything should not start from Point A, and also finish in a closed-loop at Point A. Kindly don't see things from Your Angle only.
