Foreign
Ideologies Are Not Universal
Similarly those who would like to
make western ideologies the basis of our progress forget that these
ideologies have arisen in certain special situations and time. These
are not necessarily universal. They cannot be free from the
limitations of the particular people and their culture, which gave
birth to these Isms. Besides many of these ideas are already out of
date. The principles of Marx have changed both with the changing
times as well as with varying conditions to the extent that parrot
like repetition of Marxism for problems facing our country would
amount to a reactionary attitude rather than a scientific and
pragmatic one. It is indeed surprising that those who claim to
reform the society by removing dead traditions, themselves fall prey
to some outdated foreign traditions.
