I would like to share my views on Vidura Neeti. Vidura was
called as Mahatma in Dwapara Yuga. He was an able minister of Kuru
Kingdom and rendered a yeoman service. In bird's eyeview, Vidura's philosophy
of life-a typical example is-"anger, arrogance, pride and prejudice,
laziness and licentiousness are the characteristics of a depraved person. He,
who is envious of others for their aristocratic ancestry or attractive
personality, wealth or wisdom, accomplishments or attainments, honoured
position or happy life, will be a perpetual patient suffering from a disease
that is incurable". He further says that forgiveness is very often dubbed
as weakness. But it is the brightest ornament anybody can ever hope to wear and
adds to the fourth dimension to one's personality. Vidura always for proactive
measures in administering a country and said that a king needs to follow the
suggestions given by wise. Vidura Neeti becomes more relevant in today's
political situations as our politicians need to have an everyday introspection
in serving the people rather than aiming for ephemeral gains. Vidura Neeti is
also substanciated by Lord Krishna in Gita i.e the Yoga of knowledge, Yoga of
Action etc. .
I trust that you will concur with me.
