Might is not right, Right is Might.

We presume that wealth, authority and power succeed in deciding what is right and what is wrong. Minds and brains of people can be easily purchased and employeed to prove the actions of mighty person or organisation to be right. However, their attempt though found to be successful in initial stages, it is the truth that proves to be mightier than such attempts. That is why we say Satyamev Jayate (सत्यमेव जयते।).

Whatever is happening in Egypt is indicative of that. People have revolted against all powerful government without fearing for the oppressive efforts and armed police force. Mahatma Gandhi could drive out British Empire from India throuh peaceful struggle.

Ravana abducted Sita and was assuming that he can win over her. But he was wrong. Not only Sita refused him, Rama destroyed his empire with army of monkeys. Kauravas were thinking that they can defeat Padawas with giant army borrowed from Lord Krishna, but truth and real God Krishna was on the side of Pandavas. hence Kouravas were defeated.

In all stories in the entire world, it is depicted that weakest and poorest win the battle with strongest and wealthy if they are fighting for real cause. See the famous story of David and Goliath. Even the comics of mouse and cat, or cat and dog give the same message.

Still it is seen, that the mighty continue to thrust their opinions, grab properties or think that what they are doing is right. In fact, the mighty are not to be blamed for this situation. The illusion of false reality or justification of their actions is done by the same people praising them or employeed by them. The cause of such behaviour by mighty may be traced to psychology of the entity which tries to dominate and greed to become more mightier. But it fails to realise that concentration of power, wealth or authority is always unstable and is bound to crumble down.

It is necessary therefore to eliniate oneself from selfish motives, examine what is reality and accept the truth. This would avoid all unnecessary clashes, violence, injustice and financial loss or total destruction of empire.

Everybody should understand that Right is Might and not whatever mighty does is right.
