The Most Misunderstood 'G'

No I am not speaking about Girls, I am speaking Godse. The man who was always misunderstood, misinterpreted and considered as the biggest villain of India.

Few days before I had a big discussion with a friend of mine on Gandhi and Godse topic. According to him Gandhi was the Hero(because he was Gandhi, the Mahatma) and Godse the villain (just because of the only reason that Godse sacrificed Gandhi). Now its not only him who thinks that way but most of the people in the country. I am not against Gandhi, but I like Godse more than Gandhi. And believe me by liking Godse I am not at all trying to be different nor does it makes me look "COOL", but infact people start thinking that you are a jerk (which I am, neither does it makes any difference to me) and there are a lots of other issues.

Gandhi's believes were good. He was a great person. The way he lived his life was amazing. At the same time Godse is also not a villain. And there are a lot of facts which make Godse, might not be a hero, but a true Indian.

One who does a right thing at the right time is a human being. One who does a wrong thing, to gain people's sympathy is an opportunist. One who supports wrong is also wrong.

I don't believe that Godse killed Gandhi, that is why I always say "Godse sacrificed Gandhi" instead of "Godse killed Gandhi". Yes Godse sacrificed Gandhi for the well being of the country. Now your question may be is "How". There were a lot reasons which I wanna discuss.

Do you know that Godse went ahead, pushed one of the girls supporting Gandhi away, so that she doesn't get hurt, before shooting at Gandhi. Godse had a gun in his hand, and only few 10s of people around (who were all unarmed, even the police) and three rounds of shots still left in his gun with which he would have easily escaped from the scene of action, but instead he dropped his gun, and surrendered to the people who were around and mad in anger. This shows that Godse was not a maniac or a terrorist but an idealistic person who could do no harm to the innocents. Godse was not a violent guy, infact he was an ardent follower of Gandhi at one point of time in his life. Exact similar situation happened around 25 years before this incident when Bhagat Singh threw bombs in the court and surrendered himself to enlighten the people of the country. He is considered a hero only because he succeded in his task and Godse is not because he didn't.

Gandhi and his alliances were majorly responsible for the division. A few maniacs started the issue of Pakistan and muslim country division and started to kill people, and our so called anti-violence leaders lead by Gandhiji helped the division. All Godse wanted was a united India. His last wish was that his ashes should be poured in the Indus river of united India. The whole Godse chapter has been so cleverly manipulated and modified by our so called leaders of the country (ofcourse everybody knows who and why) that he became a villain.

Why is it that there is no statements of Godse available openly? Why is that the Godse case was conducted in closed rooms? Why is that Godse was given death sentence while the punishment for one murder is 14 years imprisonment and a planned murder by a group of people is 7 years each in India? Why is that no letters, no statements, no case files nothing related to Godse is available? One simple reason. If Godse's reasons came out, then the so called greatness of the great people of the country wouldn't have sustained.

For me Godse is not a villain, but he is the person who did the right thing at the right time.

For the people who understand Marathi, can watch this movie "Mee Nathuram Godse Boltoy"

The Questions...............

When I was in school my teacher always told me that the school is the only important part "this is your turning point", rest of your life will be easy, so I took the turn. Then I went to do my 10+2 and I heard them saying this is the most important part of your life "10+2 is the turning point", so I turned again. Then I entered engineering and I heard the same story again and I turned again as usual. Now after doing my masters I turned and looked back, all these turns made a big 'O'. Now I finished my Masters, and I still don't know where I am going. I am standing at the same place where I started.

The present biggest issue in my life is 'identity'. What am I? Where do I stand? Am I a good person? A bad person? Or a person with really no existence? What people think about me, is it the truth? Or what I think that people think about me is the truth? Does my existence, in any way, matter to other (apart from my parents) people around me? Do they really want me in their life? Or do I do any good by being in their life? Does the people who behave very well to me, really mean it? Or is it that they just don't want to hurt me by saying the truth? They say everyone is born for a destiny, what is mine? Where will I find it? Do I really have one? Or was I born for nothing? Huff lots lots and lots of questions. But not even a single answer. May be this is the outcome of the frustration that is growing inside me because of unemployment.

Talking about destiny, this word is somewhere related to god, isn't it? I mean its god who decides our destiny, right. But deep down somewhere, I am a hardcore atheist. Is it apt for me to talk about destiny. Atheist don't believe in God, so they shouldn't believe in destiny too, right. But the problem is I believe that for a human being the fellow human being is god. Huff I don't know what I am thinking. I am spending most of my days, finding the answers for these questions. Really, someone said so much right that empty mind is devil's workshop.

I don't know whether anyone will be interested, and even bother to post a comment on this post. But it feels so good and relief after writing this. I want to continue this writing for long. I want to make it interesting too. No matter what the response is.
