Re: [India_Vision_2020] Re: Conferring Mahatma title to Dr Kalam - Draft for discussion

Hi,
 
With due respect to what Dr. Kalam has contributed to the nation and especially children and youth he deserves " .... " a title.
 
In my personal opinion - the word "Mahatma" [ if it depicts Mahan Atma ] gives me a feeling as if he is not with us.
 
Evolution / Elevation of  :: Jivatma >> Atma >> Shuddhatama >> Mahatma >> Parmatma.
 
During human life >> Jivatma (birth) >> Atma (growth) >> Shuddhatama (spiritual development)
 
After death >> on this planet >> Mahatma
 
After death >> in the universe >> Parmatma - The God.
 
I always refer to Gandhiji as "Bapu" rather than "Mahatma"
 
The word "Bapu" has closeness and intimacy.
 
How would "Yug Purush" (man of the millenium) sound ?
 
Can't he be remembered as Yug Purush for years to come ?
 
with best regards,
 
akhil sutaria

Hi all

I think its a great thing to do so! he indeed deserves the title,
though he will never expect any of it. MAHATMA KALAM i am happy to be
the first person to add this to His Excellency's name!

This one way to show our gratitude and express support to the man who
has shown us the way to be a super power!
