Journey from slavery to freedom--when? See the lament of the common man!

 Aslam o Alaikum, in today's blog I want to tell you that we are neither democratic nor legal nor patriot, we are emotional people. We are ready to accept the law and the constitution only when it is in our interest. When it is in our interest, we talk about the law and the constitution. And when it is not in our interest, we oppose it. In our history, we have never put ourselves, our country, our people, our nation, our personal ego aside and thought about the interests of our country and nation. We have never done this. I am very sorry to say that we have been proven to be like this. You can see that we have never learned a lesson from history. We are emotional people. We get emotional and we follow someone and then we follow him. Then we are followed by someone else and we sing his praises. And when his praises are over, we follow someone else. We were made emotional in sectarianism, we were made emotional in Provincialism, we were made emotional in religious division, we were made emotional in society, we were made emotional in the family, we were made emotional in groups and we kept being emotional. We never thought about our country, that why is this country reaching such a state and why is it going down? We never thought about our common people, what is happening to them, it is difficult for them to live, in fact, they are dead as they live. We never thought about them. We go around a few personalities, sometimes we start to tie the knot of someone's praise, sometimes we start to tie the knot of someone's praise. And then finally when those personalities are down, we start to call them bad. We have done the same with our institutions, in institutions we bring out our personal egos, we have never seen the sanctity of institutions. The short story is that we have not proven to be a democratic country. So this is the result that in a country like Pakistan, we should not even take the name of democracy. Here, democracy cannot take the name of democracy. This situation, this situation, this emotionality, this illegitimacy, these are the rules, these are all being repeated. This has not stopped. You can see the history of the last 75-70 years, it has never stopped. Everyone has made the rules, the law, I will not name names, you will understand. They say that a sign is enough for a wise man. So I am giving a sign in this vlog today. And I have to tell this story with great sadness today. This is the bitter truth, the name of my program is also the bitter truth. So this is the bitter truth that I want to tell you and I want to do it with a lot of heart. Because there is a compulsion that the thing has to be said, it is clear, we cannot live without it. There is a pain, a pain, the pain of a common man, which I am telling you. The common man is still in the same way, the victim of troubles, as it was 30-40 years ago. Even today, the same way, the victim of inflation, even today, the same way, the victim of the price of things, goods and consumption. Even today, our money is going down, even today, our rulers are having fun. Even today, the common man is the victim of troubles, he is buried under the storm of inflation. Now he has no solution and this is what has been happening for the past 75 years. And why is this happening, this is something for us to think about. And the basic reason for that is that there is contradiction in our words and actions. In fact, we talk about democracy, but we also have privileges in institutions. And there are privileges in the parliament, there are privileges in the courts, there are privileges in the establishment, there are privileges in politicians. Even among those common people, those privileges are dominating. Until we sacrifice this privilege, our personal interests, we will not be able to do anything. And even today, the situation is such that there is a fight for privileges. I have heard the same story again and again, and I am tired of it. This story is happening in our country. As there is a saying by Gautam Buddha, which is very wonderful, he says that birth is a sorrow and the reason for sorrow is desires. So you say that our desires are fighting each other. He says that I will become the Prime Minister, he says no, I will become. They are fighting each other, he says why did you remove me? He says that this is a conspiracy against my government. So we bring our egos up with such things and we do not look at our country at all. And I am very surprised that Pakistanis are the only people who are scaring their country. And I will talk even more about this, that this situation has been very much in Muslims. That in history, the way Muslims have killed Muslims, maybe the disbelievers did not do so much. You can look at the history. So it means that we are enemies of each other. We are not ready to sit somewhere and talk. We are not ready to solve our problems through dialogue. We come on the streets, jam our entire system, to comfort our ego, using people in their favor, sometimes using our opponents. Sometimes someone is using them, sometimes someone else is using them. It means that powerful people bring anyone they want and put some slogans in their mouth. Those slogans gradually start to penetrate people. Then that personality goes beyond all things. You can see this with us continuously. I think we have to get rid of these things. And I have now become convinced that you should stop taking the name of democracy. This country and its people are not worthy of democracy. They are not worthy of the constitution. They are not worthy of the law. This means something else. And put some, God forbid, put some external force. Now this situation has become. I don't think I'm one of those people. This is a very disappointing situation. What can we do? We see the same situation every time. What can we do?
