THE ART OF REVOLUTION

An expert surgeon is efficient at the art of performing precise surgery and simultaneously he has a plan to create fast relief. Surgery and relief have to take place with the same expertise, so that the patient can continue with his life and even try to increase his productivity.
We may summarize in 4 steps, diagnosis, precise surgery, relief and increased productivity or at least bringing back to the healthy condition.Some leaders are good at creating a revolution against corruption or bad governance; they diagnose it and perform surgery to topple over the bad governance. But are they capable to give relief by replacing it and even further, make it better?  Governance is a great art. It is not simply about toppling over the bad leader, but also replacing him with a good one, otherwise it results in nothing but anarchy. There are so many historical incidents wherein the bad leaders were toppled over by the revolutionary people, but they failed to offer good governance, in fact what they gave was only the burden of anarchy. Krishna also stirred revolutions against many powerful kings and dictators. Not killing them could give rise to a legacy of violence. But killing them could result in either inefficient governance or no governance at all, causing anarchy. Nevertheless, Lord Krishna, expert at the art of revolution, also mastered the art of restoring and re-establishing. He appointed Yudhishthira as the next king.Being appointed as a king after the massive world war was a great responsibility, somewhat similar to being appointed as a housing cooperation's chairperson, after a massive disaster of an earthquake.   Yudhisthira, however, not only reversed the situation but also created a responsible life for all.  One who knows the art of governance should be able to take us through the complete process….
1-Diagnosis (creating revolution),
2-remove the rotten limb (toppling the bad governance),
3-give relief (start placing things in their proper place by replacing with good governance) and
4-finally make the productivity increase (prosperity starts increasing).
