Politicians Clad in White

       The dress code has been remained a great insignia since long time. The profound connotation is shrouded in it, it is never by chance. Often, the political leaders can be seen clad in white, although it is not mandatory. But that has become an emblem of status for them.  Why white dress? Why not other color?

     White color is also for ascetic, Widow and shroud. White color is the symbol of purity, peace, truthfulness and detachment. In Indian Mythology, white is associated with Lord Shiva and goddess Sarsawati. Sarsawati is depicted in white dress with no make-up or jewelry, sitting near river Saraswati along with Swan. All the thing avowed are white. Lord Shiva`s complexion is white. He is also called “Karpoor Gauram”, whose color is as white as camphor. Mountain Kailas, the abode of Lord Shiva, is clad in white snow, river Ganga flowing through His hair lock is white, the symbol of purity. Goddess Sarsawati is the symbol of knowledge. Lord Shiva is ascetic, Yogi. He has third eye, the symbol of vision. He is “Daani”, the bestower. He never hoard anything for Himself, rather He fulfill the desires of His devotees. His intention is the welfare of the existence. He becomes God of destruction, whenever the chaos and immorality take place in the existence. His Power, His Knowledge, His Vision are merely for the welfare for the existence. Hence, He (His qualities) is worshiped everywhere.

  Scientifically, the white color reflects all other colors back, this suggest that the white color is the embodiment of detachment.  And black color absorbs all the colors in it, so it became the embodiment of attachment. To associate this logic, generally, the Asuras are depicted in black and gods in fair complexion.

   As per the description of the colors, leaders clad in white, should be the symbol of knowledge, purity, peace,vision, detachment and altruism, not the pictogram of the hoardings. In the present time, the conduct of the most of the political leaders has become like Asura, clad in white to dupe the innocent public, and keep themselves busy in hoarding for themselves, rather doing justice with their position and power, which has been provided to them by the public. They have the dress in white hue on their body which is Lord Shiva`s color, the detachment, but they are very attached to their power and position only .White is the dress of Sarsawati, but they constantly craving for the Laxmi for themselves. Everything looks converse in terms of the dress, speech and action. Hence chaos and immorality have been taken place at an inordinate extent.  It is the clear indication for the destruction.

     Once, an asura named Rahu disguised himself in the form of god to get the nectar of immortality, the Amrut. Lord Vishnu was distributing the nectar among the gods. Rahu tried to dupe Vishnu, and Vishnu severed his head to maintain the law and order, the Dharma, for the wellbeing  of the humanity.  The time has come to recognize the real gods and to throw out the Asura clad in white to save the nation.
