Subhas Chandra Bose is the pride of the entire nation. His contribution to give us a free India is commendable. Born on 23rd January 1897, Subhas Chandra Bose was one of the most prominent leaders fighting for the freedom of our motherland. It was his courage, ideology and defiant patriotism that India still remembers him for his devotion towards the country and its people. The life story of Netaji never fails to inspire us to fight for our rights. Here are some of the ideologies he believed in in his lifetime. “Freedom is not given- it is taken”- Moving with this idea, Netaji and his army shook the entire empire that was ruling India at that time. He always believed in a proactive approach towards any life goals. “One individual may die for an idea but that idea will, after his death, incarnate itself in a thousand lives”- Netaji believed that just like the moving cycle of evaluation, ideologies and beliefs are carried to the next generations too. “A true soldier needs both military and spiritual training”- According to SC Bose, a person must be both physically and mentally strong to fight the daily battle. “We must build up our national defence on such an unbreakable foundation that never again in our history shall we lose our freedom”– Netaji wanted to protect India by building a protective and unbreakable wall around it. “Life loses half its interest if there is no struggle- if there are no risks to be taken”- According to SC Bose, there is no fun living a monotonous life without a speed breaker of challenges. “We cannot sit still because we cannot, or do not, know the truth” – Netaji always had a vision for finding the truth that lies behind every statement. “No real change in history has ever been achieved by discussions” – Netaji never liked the idea to sit and wait for given opportunities to come. He always appreciated hard working and enthusiastic people. “Forget not that the grossest crime is to compromise with injustice and wrong. Remember the eternal law: you must give if you want to get” – Netaji always believed that the person who compromises with the injustice are the biggest criminals. Those who want to achieve something in life, they must stand up for themselves. "Soldiers who always remain faithful to their nation, who are always prepared to sacrifice their lives, are invincible” – Eternal love and passion for the country is the building pillar of a powerful and unconquerable soldier. “We should have but one desire today- the desire to die so that India may live- the desire to face a martyr’s death, so that the path to freedom may be paved with the martyr’s blood” – It was one of the most powerful believes of Netaji that kept his going.
