Learning, learning nothing but learning people do;
Art, science and law they learn to bring out the truth.
But many learn art for expressing beauty;
Learn science for the sake of doing research;
And learn law for establishing their justice!
Creativity and criticism are not two contrary things;
But creativity and criticism are used as contrary things.
Only creativity keeps language alive,
But criticism only makes popular everything!
Mere learning and knowing are no good,
But knowledge useful and usable is the best.
It is easy to criticise but difficult to create good and great!
This world is full of negative type of critics, whose talks, writings and acts spoil
Beauty, Goodness and Truth in the human society.
Social attitude and modern education are the cause for this sorry state of criticism that kills
The Will to Act or Creative Spirit of the budding intellectuals to depression or cynicism;
This is the cause for the non-development of nations and the insane functioning of the world!
So, our society neither praises the good nor curses the bad;
Also, whether a person lives well or bad society never says well!
Our Education gives training more in Economics, Science, Commerce and Computer
than in Arts, History and Literature;
So Scientific Attitude is developed at the expense of Human Spirit making man an inhuman being!
As a result people serve for Power or Pleasure or some Games instead of Beauty, Goodness and Truth.
Science may help man to make materials for comfort or destruction but not explain human feelings or works!
Creations of Scientific Spirit cannot last longer than the Immortal Creations of Human Spirit in Art and Literature,
For, man still belongs to the Mysterious World of Art, Poetry and Religion and not of science!
It is not enough we develop Intellect alone but also Human Heart to become a Full Man;
It is not sufficient we live with Food, Clothing and Shelter
but also Love, Knowledge and Recognition for our expression;
For that, Scientific Attitude with Human Spirit is needed to weed out the defects in
Religion, Politics, Science and Society.
Even Books, Newspapers, Cinema and TV expose the negative side of Life and Activities in the World;
That’s why Hamlets are developing more in numbers than Henrys here!
So Want of Faith in oneself has become a Great Disease in the World!
The purpose of Intellect in Politics or Journalism is to Discover the Truth which is Beautiful, Good and Great!
So Criticism based on the Good and Great only can help one to Weed out the Worst
And Admiration of the Truth, Beautiful and Great only can help to Develop Confidence, Courage and Faith;
That was why Good and Great creative Works of Art and Literature thrived in the past.
Now Critical Appreciation of the best only can help to bring out the Best of Creations in All Fields!
