How successfully has the NSCN (IM) been in taking the people of Nagaland along with their agenda ? This question may seem odd, even hollow in the face of the fact that ever since the NSCN came into being in 1980 and split into the Khaplang faction and Isak-Muivah faction in 1988, the outfit seems to have sold its idea to all the people it claims to represent.

Let us switch on the living mode

When you board an aircraft, you switch on the airplane mode in your phone. Just like that, in life, too, make an essential switch from survival mode to living mode. The survival mode is full of questions: what will happen to me in the future, where will i live? How will i fit into society and that too “successfully”?

Why is it all so big?

When knowledge is imperfect, vision funnelled through a tunnel, and grander possibilities exist only in the realm of philosophy or religion, any scientific change can come as a deluge drowning out the belief systems of an already abiding humanity.That’s exactly what happened in the western world when Copernicus whisked away a notional rug from under our feet that had long meant we — meaning our world in all its astronomical definitions and other senses — were the centre of the universe, read, creation. Suddenly all the observable heavenly bodies in the firmament were no longer seen to be orbiting the Earth as their magisterial focus; rather a heliocentric alternative was offered with empirical evidence which proclaimed that the Sun instead held the planets in its gravitational thrall. Geocentrism was dead forever. Soon tiny Earth would also be dwarfed by other gassy giant planets in its own backyard.
