i love India, A land 'where knowledge is free'; 'Where words come out from the depth of truth -- Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sands of dead habits'; i love India, A land where 'the world has not been broken up in fragments by narrow domestic walls' and Hitlerian outlooks and approaches; i love India, A land where her beauty could be noticed in the manifestation of values and morals in her citizen's personalities, thoughts, outlooks, and acts of conducts rather than in their manifesto; i love India, A land where is governed by a people far from hatred, jealousy, hypocrisy, conspiracy, barbarity, and so many other antediluvian devilish behaviours; i love India, A land where is governed by a benign people with big hearts, incredible tolerance, and humane attitudes towards humanity. -- A people whose beauty lies neither in the eyes of their beholders nor in their objects but rather in the kind of relationships among the subjects (governors) and the objects (people): in mutual suitability and compatibility, in bilateral appreciation and respectguided by reason, logic, and human values; i love India, 'A land where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection'; Where the mind is not tortured to destruction to death, with Fascists' approaches to mind torturing; i love India, A land where agents of critical awareness, attitudinal change and social development are not tortured to death or sent through the trajectory of decline of being targeted, deceived, trapped, defamed, ridiculed, scolded, marginalized, and victimized with dirty conspiracies and brute force but rather are given the opportunity to do any good that they could do to human being; i love India, 'A land where the mind is led forward by thee into ever widening thought and action into that reason of freedom'; 'Where the mind is without fear and the head is truly held high'; Where is the ideal matrix for the mind of intellectuals and thinkers to rest and shine at peace; i love India, A land where is, in effect, God's - but not gods' - own land; Let me love India, my dreamland -- my utopia. Do not torture me any further; Let me sing for humanity for freedom for

peace: I love India, at whatever cost. Come what may. Do not assassinate my beloved any longer, for nothing could block the flow of my wounded brain cells song for my love, who truly manifests the glory of the unique beauty of God Take care not to push me to the point where i feel i need to leave a mark on your beautiful face out of my death. A mark, a red mark a blood-red mark, who will follow you forever up to the time he leaves you in the hell, in this world before your tribe members. For that world, let my Lord decide. .
