1. Desires as Driving Forces

  • The most basic driving force is desire. Desires motivate us to achieve tangible goals, such as buying a car or winning an election. These desires require effort and planning. Modi’s rise from humble beginnings to the highest office in India reflects his early desires and ambitions. His relentless work ethic, strategic acumen, and ability to connect with the masses were pivotal in his electoral victories.

 

2. Intrinsic Driving Forces

  • When one transcends personal desires, intrinsic motivation takes over. This is the beginning of ‘nishkam karma’ – selfless action without attachment to the outcomes. Modi’s governance style often reflects this principle. His initiatives, like the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan (Clean India Mission) and Digital India, aim to serve the nation selflessly. These efforts go beyond personal gains and are driven by a deeper commitment to societal welfare.

 

3. Transcendental Driving Forces

  • The highest level of motivation is when actions are driven by a connection with the Parmatma. Here, the individual ego dissolves, and one works for the universal good. Modi’s reference to working for Parmatma indicates this transcendental motivation. His vision for India, encapsulated in the motto “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas” (Together with all, Development for all, Trust of all), reflects an inclusive and holistic approach to governance. It signifies a commitment to universal well-being, beyond narrow self-interests.
