                              Narendra Modi Versus Arvind Kejriwal                                                                                                                                 An occult war in Varanasi ?

Varanasi, May 6 . A disclaimer is needed before treading a dangerous and uncertain path- Banarasis don't believe in Occult. Not that Occult does not exist. Not only it does exist,  sometime it proves to be decisive in lives of humans and nations. Till someone sees a serpent in a rope, it is serpent, anyway. But ultimately all this mumbo jumbo is futile.  As Advaitins, Banarasis believe that one should not create Maya within Maya.
                           Narendra Modi and his challenger in God's Own Constituency are using such messianic language which was not heard in any election in post independent India. Earlier we were cautioned against omnipresent Foreign Hand, bent upon to destabilize the country, Those were the days of cold war in international arena and Left- Right animosity on domestic front. Foreign Hand theory  ultimately died as terrorist with open hands played havoc with the country. Modi and Kejriwal now talking about " Hand of God" . And it is as much cause of curiosity as concern for the countrymen.
                           Rise of Modi and Kejriwal can not be explained fully by the simple "cause and effect" dimensions. Is there any third Dimension in the form of  " Hand of God" -some positive or negative influence. Since the main actors are themselves using messianic language, it is not irrelevant to discuss the matter.
                           Modi said the other day,"God chooses certain people to do the difficult work. I believe god has chosen me for this work. Now I only need your blessings,"  So the main actor feels that he is the chosen one. And why he came to Varanasi the explanation is-"I don't think anyone has sent me here, or I have come here. I feel Mother Ganga has called me to Varanasi."
                           It is as if we are hearing words of Annie Besant who sailed to Varanasi from London ,  121 years ago, in 1893. According to Theosophical  reports Mrs. Besant was determined to go to India, stating “I am ordered to go” . She claimed to have received a message from the Master. She told the people that she was and is a Hindu, — that in her prior incarnation she was an Indian pandit, and she is now visiting her own land after a sojourn in the West, where she was re-incarnated to know the nature of the materialistic civilisation of those regions.
                           Kejriwal was as God driven as Modi. In his swearing in ceremony In New Delhi he declared," Aam Aadmi Party is Kudrat Ka karishma (God's magic)". And it was not a spontaneous, sentimental statement. In electioneering in the holy city he expanded The Kudrat Ka Karishma theory. He is saying, God has a plan to cleanse the rot. " Bhagwan Jhadu chala raha hai, hamen bhi jhadu chalani hai "(god is sweeping with Jhadu, we should also take jhadu in our hands and clean the dirty system ) In Indian mythology jhadu or marjani is related to folk Goddesses- Shitala and Dhumavati. Ojhas in Indian villages use a jahdu like  fly whisk to ward off evil influence on a person.
                   Then, there a distinct similarity between speeches of Modi and Kejriwal. Their voices are not sweet or melodious, their narratives often lack substance. But their speeches cast a spell over audiences in such a way that they respond like hypnotized lot, kathputlis, moving with thread of the masters.Are we witnessing beginning of an era of cult leaders and cult followers? How can one explain the cap vulgarity which engulfed the country in recent months ?
                   Attentiveness and frenzy of crowd are unbelievable.Sometimes It appears that both the  speakers and listeners are possessed. "Possessed" is not necessarily a negative term.
                  Not to compare Modi and Kejriwal to any other world orator but just to deal the issue in the perspective of social psychology, let us look into  personality and oratory skill of Hitler. One eyewitness describes the magic of Hitler and his speech-"When, at the climax, he sways from one side to the other his listeners sway with him; when he leans forward they also lean forward and when he concludes they either are awed and silent or on their feet in a frenzy"
   
                 Occult scholars tell us that Demi gods or inferior entities ( not the God) often interfere in human domain. British Prime Minster Benjamin Disraeli said  long ago, "Governments do not govern, but merely control the machinery of government, being themselves controlled by the hidden hand.....For you see, the world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes."
                 Who is behind scene ? God or Kudrat ? 
                Modi and Kejriwal should explain to the people - God's Hand and Kudrat ka Karishma theory.
And they should not declare themselves that they were chosen ones. God is very selective in this matter-
 “Many are called, but few are chosen” Matthew 22:14 
               At best Modi and Kejriwal are called ones and firstly Banarasis will judge them and later hand them over to God for final calling.
