The symbol

Unlike Japan or Briton, We don't have an emperor or king to act as a symbol of unification. What we have are  cultural and political heroes. Some represent the olive leaf and others were core revolutionaries. Its very difficult to select one, as all humans have their own weakness, no matter how heroic he is. The symbol must be an undisputed , indestructible, eternal, and unique. All these characteristics cannot be found in any human beings, but only in an 'IDEA'. It cannot be destroyed, it is eternal and unique. What Idea? The idea of Indian Brotherhood, which must be well rooted in the strong love towards nation. The nation is the ultimate boundary, and we should mold our thoughts and deeds to make it fit with in the boundary, or in another way, our deeds must fit to the rich culture we have and the rules we made. We may wear the most fashionable dress, but we should respect elders as an Indian should do. we may talk many languages, but never forget our's. We may live in any other country as situation arise, but never leave our country during a crisis. We may enjoy each second we live, till the ultimate luck arrives to die for our country. The Idea is eternal, but it needs a medium. It cannot exist alone. Just be a medium, the invisible duty, the duty towards the country is always vested in you. Each day you live here, the debt is there, she never ask, but we are obliged to pay it. The Idea of Indian Brotherhood is the symbol and we are the medium. Like the loyalty to the emperor supported Japan to stay alive in midst of losses, like the cherry blossom made them feel strong, we have to go forward with the Idea, to stay alive, to feel strong.
