Guest guest Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 Swami! What is an ideal government? Sai Baba: In an ideal government everyone willingly observes the rules and regulations of the State. Everybody discharges his or her responsibilities. `Godment' is superior to Government. But, today we see people fighting for their rights, forgetting their duties. You should not give any scope for laziness. All employees should work most sincerely doing justice to the salaries they receive every month. Otherwise, they will be cheating or betraying their fellow- beings or the government. People should cultivate sdmarasyam, integration, samagrata, co-ordination, samaikyata, unity, and saubhrdtrata, fraternity. Look at this piece of cloth. This is very strong because the threads are closely interwoven. But if you separate the threads, you can cut it with your finger. Everybody should know that strength lies in unity. India could achieve independence but not unity. You are free to walk waving your walking stick, so long as it does not hit the nose of another pedestrian and your freedom does not rob the independence of others. Fundamentals applicable to all must be followed. The individual is less important than the community or society. It is always better that you manage to employ yourselves in learning those things that are needed for society. Your education should help you to better the community.
