I don’t know what is so special about power that a person puts his life at stake to get power, even after enduring exile, prisons and punishments, this desire does not dim. Of course, there is such a magic in power and authority that when a person is in power, he walks on the sky and steps on wires, and when he loses power, he keeps sighing in his separation. Along with filling, he is also trying to gain power in some way, even if he has to enter through a back door.
I know countless gentlemen who have been ministers, advisers, special assistants or very close to power, who have always heaved a sigh of relief ever since they lost it and somehow got the flag on the car again. Or keep thinking of tips for flagging although the flag on the car is not important, the flag is important on which the flag is waved. When I meet such power-deprived people or have meetings with former ministers, I often think after listening to their sighs and cries that the Majuns cried so much for Laila, Ranjhe for Heer and Farhad also for Shireen.
Will not be full. During the reign of General Zia-ul-Haq, there was a well-known woman minister. Her husband was a bit strict, stubborn and possessive of an officer’s temperament and used to be an officer in the house as well. When his Begum became a Wazir, he proved to be a very faithful and submissive husband and subordinate because the true creator has placed great flexibility in man. If he is inclined to fly, he can touch the stars, and if he bends down, even the earth becomes shy. I have seen both these manifestations in my long but short journey of life.
Quality of Power
The bowed down brazens continued to receive flattering elevations, elevated ranks from one to another, and sustained self-aggrandizing wounds. If you think about it, self-esteem proves to be a valuable asset in a self-sufficient society and becomes a wound in a self-deprived society. A wound that is beaten every day and bleeds with longings and feelings. The selfhood that Allama Iqbal sang about is self-awareness, but the selfhood we are talking about is the close sister of self-control and self-respect.
If power is the name of ruling hearts, such power in politics is given to very few lucky personalities. Well, it is not necessary to increase luck after writing very little, because truly lucky people are rare anyway. In our recent history _ contemporary era _ only Muhammad Ali Jinnah got this opportunity and this is God’s religion. If power is the name of ruling over bodies, then the number of names of such power holders is very high, Masha’Allah. Although he who sits on the throne of power thinks that he is the only one, there was no one before him and there will be no one after him.
The study of history teaches a strange lesson and that is that the desire and lust for power of those who rule over the bodies never ends but grows every day, while those who rule over the hearts succumb to this desire. They come with a mission and prefer to leave after its completion because their struggle is not for a ‘chair’ but for a mission and a destination. Those who rule the bodies use power to shape the future of themselves and their future generations and make politics their permanent slave, thus earning wealth and making rupees, while those who rule the hearts also use their savings for the country and the nation. are given to It is as if they find spiritual relief in self-sacrifice and sacrifice, while those who rule the bodies find spiritual joy in filling their personal treasures.
Men who are devoted to their mission, purpose and destination do not desire or lust for power, but power runs after them, while those who lust for power continue to run after power throughout their lives. In this journey, sometimes they are separated from power and sometimes they are found suffering in separation.
It seems that his life is a story of separation and separation, in which there are severe trials and hardships, but still his desire for power and desire for the throne does not go out. They are busy in its search even after putting everything at stake. I do not know what is the quality of power, what is the attraction and pleasure that a person becomes addicted to it and without it, he sifts the dust just like the Majunas without Laila, suffer in the same way.
Like a heroin addict. The seat of power is big and small. Options are both large and limited. Observation shows that the greater the power and authority, the greater the desire. As if power is also a test of character. Some get carried away after a single sip and some stay normal even after drinking the whole bottle. This is the reason why I often wonder what is the quality of power that people risk everything for.
