Fire Still Burns with AGNI

Fire Still Burns in a campaign initiated by Artistic Revelations to bring change by doing what you know to do the best.

AGNI- the organisation who introduced the concept of Advanced Locality Management in Mumbai; one of the first propagators of the Clean & Green Mumbai idea; an organization that challenged strikes of essential services in Mumbai; an early starter to utilize the power of media to spread their message…

To cut a long story short - a visionary team who has withstood the test of time in working towards creating a better tomorrow.

And we are thrilled to announce that this visionary team is partnering with our movement to combine the energies of the youth with the expertise of the elders. A wholly voluntary association, AGNI is operated by citizens like you and me.

The details of the association will follow as we go along – as always ideas to make the association meaningful are welcome…

Keep the fire burning.

Fire Still Burns

They don't act or speak like they are on fire.
Gone are the times when it burned hard enough to spread free and spread wild.
It's all about petty issues today, divisive politics and finger pointing.
When will it ignite and burn us and say we are one, lets face our issues as one.
It's always about religion, who is better at whom for pulling down each other.
It's not about mutual support and lets do our job together.
It's not about a responsibility handed over to us by a whole nation full of dreams waiting for the great days after Independence.
They simply don't see this, they are not visionaries or statesmen.
Their visions stop after their bank coffers are filled.
They simply stop thinking and give up.
They get pulled down by crab mentality, each one do not let the other speak or act.
We are united for corruption, dirty politics, dirty living conditions, poverty.
We are only united till we seek their votes.
After that it's a roller coaster ride, when the people who voted feel cheated and dropped in the downfall, while they go up the roller coaster.
I simply wonder who enjoys the ride here.
Haven't we all heard this many times, what's the point, why choose a better thief among thieves? But choosing and entrusting is our responsibility, then accountability, we did our job, believing in you, we did it passionately, we did it after evaluating and thinking you'll do it, no matter what, come hell or high water.
We trusted them with a job, not for free, we sign their pay checks, we have a right to fire them, we have a right to question them.
How did all this happen?
Where did we all go wrong?
Did it stop burning?

It burned during independence, It burned when we asked for freedom.
It burned when they left our country.
It burned to build a better a nation.
It burned within all of us to see that country change and grow into a welathy culturally rich society where our kids can roam free and dream of better futures in the interest of humanity.
It burned when we all went to sleep , it burned every time we dreamed for a better tommorow, it burned when it was all taken away from us, It burned for innocent lives lost, It burned whenever we tried to ignore and act different.
It has not stopped burning since them, because I don't sleep peacefully, when it does not let me sleep.
It burns me...


I don't know about all of you reading this, but it burns in me.
I beleive if it burns in me, it burns in every one of us.
I beleive it's burning to bring change, it's burned me enough and I am going to do something about it.
To all of you who try to put us down.
I just have three words.....

FIRE STILL BURNS
