<< This Article was a part of an old series called 'Dr. Swaansh Aatman' which is now discontinued >>
It was 1:45 am. He gently opened the door of his house, trying his best not to make the clinging noise of the keys. His parents were sleeping in their bedroom. It was absolutely quiet everywhere. He straight went inside his bedroom . He placed his bag on the table, switched his cellphones off, put his watch aside and rolled his sleeves up. Dr. Swaansh Aatman gets more alive during this time of the day. After spending almost 15 hours of the day outside his house , it is this time that he gets for himself. He had a glass of water and went to his personal library.
Dr. Swaansh sat on his chair just thinking. Thinking about his past mistakes and the challenges which were to come ahead. For what he did, he could never have made everybody happy.

When you are to deal with politicians and corrupt officials , you tend to forget your people skills. You tend to get emotional. In order to get these people to work, Dr. Swaansh had to combine everything that he had ever learnt. He had to use his people skills that he learnt in M.B.A., his legal knowledge that he got at law college and more so his financial prowess. And this man did it with a vengeance. As Navjot Singh Sidhu says ,' a revolutionary idea is usually the one with its sleeves rolled up '. Swaansh knew that what he was doing was right; also holly if we may say. He was not going to kneel in front of selfish minds. People tend to confuse the goal of being liked with that of being respected.
Ronald Reagon, the president of the United States of America from 1980 to 1988, said," America is the best country to promote world peace not because of its tolerance but because of its strength." To extend this idea further, Dr. Swaansh knew that his good intentions combined with his might is what is responsible for everything that he has ever achieved. Even in the Indian history, we have seen many extremes work together to drive out the British. It took all, the peaceful ways of Mahatma Gandhi and the extremist ways of Bhagat Singh ,the assertive ways of the iron man Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and the shrewd ways of netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, to create a combined effect so powerful that history was made. The fundamental laws of our idea of society were rewritten and change was being brought about. Stories will be told and accusations will be made. Mediocre minds are always going to criticize these leaders for many reasons. Of course, there is no denying that some of these arguments are definitely credible. But let us not forget that these leaders have made sacrifices in ways in which most of us can not even begin to imagine. The truth is and will always remain that way that the absence of even a single leader would have made it impossible for India to achieve independence. Similarly, none of the methods implemented by these leaders, singly, would have proven to be sufficient enough.
The mother nature requires BALANCE. What was important was not the methods but the intention that all these great men shared - to give India independence. Though their destinies were different, their goal was the same. For any thought to ever manifest, BALANCE is required. The leaders deep within themselves had developed a fire so intense that mother nature had to manifest it. They never cared about what people would say or interpret 50 years after those events. Because it meant nothing to them. What they wanted was something for the people This is the kind of sacrifice that Dr. Swaansh was thinking about , that most of us can not even begin to imagine. There is never a best way of doing anything. Anything that ever happened , happened exactly how it was supposed to , because it did that way.
It takes both sunshine and rain to create a rainbow. Successful men have always had their share of problems and they did it in spite of and not in absence of those problems. Because problems and motivation brought about that BALANCE. Channelizing your fire and acting in accordance with your thoughts gives you that BALANCE. Even criminals follow this theory of balance in their own ways. And you can apply this theory to any and every event that ever occurred. You just need to close the doors of pre-concepts and prejudice to look at them from a different angle. The angle of truth.
Now Dr. Swaansh was relieved. He, by means of this self talk, again revised his concepts of (1) Why are there so many complications and hindrances in what he does and (2) why he will need to follow the path of the ever so witty Ronald Reagon by using both his mind and might to do it. The answer was again - the mother nature is helping him strike that BALANCE .This is what made his JOURNEY enjoyable. He looked at his watch. It was 2:30 A.M. The next afternoon he had these series of meetings. It was time to sleep...
