ADAM, HARD WORK AND TODAY'S GOVERNMENTS' POLITICS

When Adam and Eve disobeyed God, the Bible tells us that He banished them from the garden of Eden. We also know from the Bible that the order of things got all upset. God cursed the serpent, Eve and Adam. 

Eve's curse - “I will make your pains in childbearing very severe; with painful labor you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.”

Wonder why men and women always have problems? There's your answer.

Adam's curse - “Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat food from it all the days of your life. It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food..."

This is the interesting part. God actually cursed this whole earth! Even thorns are direct results of God's curse! Did you also notice what kind of food Adam was supposed to eat? Plants! 

Before Adam sinned, God said to him, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food.” 

The original diet for man was only seed-bearing plants and trees with fruits! Nothing else. For all the animals and every living creature, food was green plants! So basically, the original design never included meat for food. (There you go, vegetarians!)

Did you notice a change in diet after Adam sinned? From seed-bearing plants and fruit-bearing trees to plants of the field! Seed-bearing plants and fruit-bearing trees would not have required Adam to cultivate the land but plants of the field required hard labour because God said to Adam that he would have to eat those plants of the field by the "sweat of" his brow.

I've been blessed to have escaped the need for toiling in the field under the sun for food and sustenance, although I have experienced how hard it is. For those who earn their livelihood through agriculture, they are fully aware of this curse of God. And you should see their joy when they have done their job.

The only thing God did for Adam and Eve after He cursed them was to 
make clothes for them. The Bible doesn't even mention any crash course on agriculture! God made garments for Adam and Eve and He sent them out of the Garden of Eden to start feeding themselves through hard work. There were no short cuts. Plain hard work.

Did you ever wonder why individuals, families, societies and nations often get derailed in their path to self sufficiency? Well, in my opinion, it is because we have abandoned the notion that it is only through hard work that we succeed in life.

Sadly, through our temporary entity we call government we have fooled ourselves into thinking that our livelihood, sustenance and prosperity come not "by the sweat" of our brow but through the hand of the always-erring government, thus breeding dependency and not fostering the idea of self-sufficiency and self-determination.

A thinker of great significance Judge Andrew Napolitano said:

"Dependency breeds a sense of complacency and entitlement and fosters a government that -- in order to stay in power -- will further that dependency. Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton agreed on little publicly, but they did agree that when the public treasury becomes a public trough and the voters recognize that, they will send to the government only those who promise them a bigger piece of the government pie."

We need to get back to the original idea i.e., hard work if we are to truly beat the economic burden that's saddling us. But the question is: are we willing to take that approach and let go of the government's freebies that only further our dependency on the government whose main interest is to continue making us so dependent on it that it will do anything to remain in power?

SHOULD WE REVISE OUR HISTORY?

On the 14th August 1947, the representative and administrative head of the British India government in the Lushai Hills (renamed Mizoram) Superintendent L.L.Peters held a meeting with 50 accredited leaders of the Mizo (Lushai) community. Among them, five were Chiefs - Lalbuanga, Lamhliara, Ch. Ngura, Lianbuanga and Liansailova.

The reason for the historic meeting was to determine the destiny of the Mizo people because they knew that the British were quickly departing India and the leaders of the community believed in the principle of self-determination. The Mizo people, historically, never had any sense of togetherness with India, a country they were being slowly wedded to. The leaders of the community made it clear to the British India government, through its representative in Aizawl, that their destiny must be in their hands as it had always been.

Superintendent L.L.Peters and Assistant Sainghinga officially signed the resolution.

Resolution No 2.(iii) clearly indicated the right of the Mizo people to determine what they would want at a later stage -

"Resolved that if the Lushais are to enter Indian Union their main demands are...that the Lushais will be allowed to opt out of the Indian Union, when they wish to do so subjected to a minimum period of ten years."

The 50 representatives of the Mizo community were clear and the British representative understood in no uncertain terms that for the Mizos, it was not a question of "If" but a question of "when" they would want to assert their sovereignty at a later stage. A copy of the "Proceedings of meeting of the accredited leaders, Lushai Hills" is available on http://www.zogam.org/documents.asp?article=documents_212.

The officially binding recognition of the wishes of the people of Mizoram signed by the sole representative of the British India Government L.L.Peters deserve a sincere recognition and reconsideration as the political turn of events after 10 years of the signing completely ignored the resolution.

Notwithstanding the fact that the government of India signed a Memorandum of Settlement with the then underground Mizo National Front government on the 30th June 1986, I see no reason why the 14th July 1947 resolution signed by the representative of the British India government should not be honoured.

Perhaps the time is ripe for serious historical revisionism. After all, we the Mizo people lived in self sufficiency under the rule of the sovereign Chiefs. Today, we have money given (literally)  to us by the Indian government along with all the trappings of being part of India, a nation we never belonged to. Perhaps it is time we retraced our roots and rediscover our identity and destiny. Perhaps we should revise our history. Should we?
