Poetic renaissance
The purity of ideas is like air, and continuity of life comes from keeping it fresh and free for all. It enters our system and with a sense of metabolic psychological continuity makes us do different things. Today the media takes out one's inner quest and fills the mindspace with what helps them bring eyeballs. Sensationalising politics, condensing and repackaging cricket and devaluing films and glamorising the tinsel world does not leave the common man with time to delve inside, to find his deeper connect with art.
The future of our nation lies in the realm of visionary global creativity and not escapist consumerism. We have inherited their lingua franca only to remain second to the original, be looked down upon and ridiculed. Now our entire Indian elite has no choice. Even if it wants to connect with its own poetic world, it can't. It is a tragedy for the future of Indian renaissance.
