But now, only a few handful of people(except my family) whom I contacted are turning against me for my views regarding the current situation in our country(CJP, dipke, jantar mantar).
I don’t support or promote CJP; I see them as people planted into India to create chaos and anarchy by means that are not factual or truthful. They are playing a very intelligent game in making people turn against the institutions of this country one by one.
My core friends are supporters of this cjp and what they are doing. So one of them fought with me; others have stopped talking with me.
I really don’t know what to do. I feel very lonely sometimes, although I have papa, mummy, and didi, but I don’t have anyone except them. Can you suggest me something?
First of all, my appreciation that you are able to see through these people who, under different names, are trying to destabilise the country, hurt its resources and capabilities, slow down and obstruct its progress. But leaving that aside, it requires great courage to stand alone, to take a stand based on your own rational thinking and your own truth. Men who think and act based on mass opinions or the norm of the day are like a flock of sheep or a pack of wolves. These drink and smoke because it is in fashion. They take sides because that is the trend. They are caught in energy waves that emanate from crowds driven by senseless rakshasic forces. I know all this by direct first-hand experience. Unfortunately, many students don’t realise that this is their age to build up a strong foundation on the basis of knowledge. Later, once you are equipped, you can serve the people and the country and even humanity, let alone the Divine, in a much better way. By not following the crowd, you are clearly showing signs of developing your true individuality. Yes, it will for a moment make you feel alone because you are not supposed to be a man of the masses. Those destined for truth and greatness must learn to walk alone, head held high, not with fear or submissiveness, nor with vanity and pride, but with the courage of conviction and the power of faith.
Friends? True friends are very few and rare and by definition they are connected with your core, your inmost truth. Live by your truth and when the time comes, you will find the friends who are connected with your core. Treasure them as they will be few, perhaps very few, but true.
Affectionately,
Alok da
