progress of a nation. The annual report of corruption is issued through
International Transparency Index, which conveys that India is ranked badly
among 180 nations. The International Anticorruption Day is observed annually on
9th December to fight and raise awareness to corruption since 2003. The
precautions include removing the causes of corruption.
1. Avoid temptations and selfish motives.
2. Prepare Anticorruption policies.
3. Improve business environment.
4. Create better response in philosophical and religious
thoughts.
5. Transparency is the collective solution to our problems on
corruption. Success is the sum total of inspirations and learning attained in
the course achieving it.
6. Both Government and the people at large must come
collectively to achieve this national objective.
7. Honesty always pays honor and corruption dishonor.
8. Guidance from father, mother, teachers, learned members of
society and religious prophets can eliminate corruption.
9. Statesmen think for progress of coming generations, however,
politicians think of next elections.
10. Do not underestimate yourself. Every
noble person is the architect of his fate, therefore rise through virtuous
efforts. God helps those who help themselves.
Corruption is a ‘Great
Sin’--Beware of it:
Corruption is the fraud
and deception to the general masses, therefore, it disturbs the mental and
moral conditions of the persons involved. Although, it brings financial
richness to the corrupt but tends to disturb the spiritual status. The
importance of reliance and credibility can be achieved through good character
and positive thoughtful actions. One should try to become honest, kind and
compassionate. Try to provide manual, financial and moral assistance to the
needy. Always feel that you posses sufficient knowledge and skill in your
profession. Do not exploit virtuous time and qualities.
Persons attached with the
sense of spirituality realize that Almighty God is the sole benefactor and we
all are His beneficiaries. Try to investigate your qualities and prepare a list
of at least 20 persons who have developed confidence in your noble character
and amiable behavior. The positive reactions provide extreme satisfaction,
respect and success. Acquire humility, serenity and modesty of mind. Make your
life span beneficial to human race through selfless and voluntary social
services. True respect for humanity supersedes selfish motives and greed. We
should develop heartfelt reverence and gratitude to our spiritual guide who
provides initiation and motivates us to seek Divine bliss and attain eternity.
Strong belief and regular meditation promotes physical, moral and eternal
strength.
