Today I met ANNA HAJARE at RaleganSiddhi.
Still he is feeling a bit weak.
As per my observation he will take at least another 8 days to recover completely.
We were together for more than 2 hours.
We talked a lot about past & future, everything under the Sun! Vijay Kuvalekar ji was integral part of this meeting.
Nobody else was there in Anna's room then during this meeting of ours.
Anna prefers isolation now a days engrossed in thoughts about future strategies.
I will assure you that many socio-political Tsunamis are awaited from that room in the future.
Wait...& watch !!

Anna , Second independence & Common me........
Dear Friends,
This letter dated 13th October 2010 before Anna Hazare started his earlier agitation.
This letter is from Anna Hazare to me in which he has mentioned me as his first Satyagrahi.
I know him closely which this letter describes and illustrates and is self-explanatory. He is a man of convictions, paradoxical like life. He is fom different world.
Every Indian citizen including me is deprived from his comfort zone in this system which he is seeking eagerly and greedily. Whereas, Anna Hazare is a idealistic person living and exploring his own world where justice can be done, equity and equality could be bridged. When he asked me to become his first satyagrahi from that day to this movement when Anna has become the icon of the idealistic world I always thought that in this country, all of us including me are directly and indirectly immoral and corrupt by default as a legacy of 64 years of Independence.
Even today our Anna is leading the whole nation and world as well. I personally don't feel that this system doesn't allow me to be a non-corrupt atleast in indirect way. So 10 months back what I have thought when Anna chose me as his first satyagrahi that I won't be able to lie to myself about truth of myself.
I haven't changed my opinion even today when whole country is sort of hysteric and euphoric about Anna's movement. I have been privileged to get love and warmth from personalities like Anna and Vijay Tendulkar. But what I feel today is that I should be honest with myself that I want corruption-free world of Anna's dream but the paradox is as an Indian I want to exclud ine myself from this utopian world in struggle of day-to-day life in this society.
I SALUTE ANNA HAZARE FOR AWAKENING SPIRIT OF VIBRANT DEMOCRACY IN INDIA'S SOUL AND MIND BUT I WANT TO BE TRUE TO MYSELF I WAS ALWAYS INDIRECTLY AND RELATIVELY A PART OF CORRUPT AND IMMORAL ACT OF THE SOCIETY AND PEOPLE. IT COULD BE RELATIVE BUT I AM TRYING TO BE HONEST TO MYSELF.
I CAN'T ASSURE ON THIS HISTORIC DAY OF ANNA'S SPIRIT THAT I CAN AVOID THIS INDIRECT AND RELATIVE RELATIONS OF MINE WITH GREY PART OF MY NATION. I AM SURPRISED THAT EVERYBODY IN THIS MOVEMENT ARE COMMITTING THAT THEY WERE NEVER EVER PART OF CORRUPT PART OF SOCIETY DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY.
I WISH THEM A GREAT SUCCESS IN THEIR MORAL AND ABSOLUTE NON-CORRUPT FUTURE LIFE. I ALSO WANT FUTURE INDIAN SOCIETY TO BE ABSOLUTELY NON-CORRUPT.
I AM EXPLORING IT BUT NOT REACHED MY DESTINATION. TODAY MILLIONS OF PEOPLE HAVE DECLARED THAT THEY HAVE REACHED THERE. MY SALUTE TO THEM AND ONE SMALL QUESTION,
'HOW THEY HAVE REACHED WHERE I AM STILL STRUGGLING A LOT TO REACH?'
