DO NOT BE A FAN

INDIAN - CULTURE  and thought has an idea to have an IDEAL viz.- Ram , Krishna  , Bauddha  and Gandhi  ; the BEST of men  and to follow them and their ideals to raise our lives like them but we never had the idea of fanship (borrowed from west). Fanship  is worse than slavery as it treats other one as superior . this is also against the idea of   ' all born equal '.in this Universe even a blade of grass is unique . (never compare the word 'fan ' with  respect , honour , reverence and like )
Do not, and I repeat, DO NOT! Do not be a fan . be a friend ; a follower ; leader ; teacher ; learner ; adviser ; counsellor ; guide BUT NOT A FAN (because most unwise for a MAN to be fan). play any game in your life ,small or smaller but never be vicarious .(watching the game of others and not playing yourself )YOU HAVE A LIFE OF YOURS AND TRY TO PLAY IT , THIS WAY OR THAT WAY . DO NOT BE A 'fan'
You can praise any one , raise him , encourage him but do not make a *mirage of him ( *an effect caused by hot air in deserts or on roads, that makes you think you can see something, such as water, which is not there or a hope or wish that you cannot make happen because it is not realistic ) . To be fan is to be nothing ,to loose one's own identity , existence . who failed everywhere went to be a fan . You can have a person as an Ideal to act upon not to worship to learn only from a great man ,how did he become great ? how you can follow him and make your life sublime . to be fan is only a fun for nothing . "Life is real ,life is earnest " it is not fun and fanship. DO NOT BE a 'fan ' but a REAL MAN .
 Every one of us has in him many things ,thoughts and potentials still unknon & undiscovered . Be Columbus to your own self-potentials as a continent .Do not waste your time and energy in watching at others on work but avail your own opportunity that you have today (blessings on you today). do not regret that has happened nor wait tomorrow that does not come , act upon today .
 All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was. I accepted their answers too, though they were often in contradiction and even self-contradictory. I was naive(*lacking experience of life, knowledge or good judgment and willing to believe that people always tell you the truth ). I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer. It took me a long time and much painful *boomeranging of my expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have been born with: that I am nobody but myself. ~Ralph Ellison, "Battle Royal" (*a weapon hat may cause unexpected harm to the user himself )
