When we think of a lamp, we see a burning flame. This flame guides us from darkness to light, from lies to truth, and from doubt to faith. It gives us hope and shows us the way forward. When a person reaches a state of deep focus and self-awareness through meditation, they often experience a sense of peace and inner understanding. At this point, they tend to let go of personal interests and start working towards solving social problems. They become more aware of the world around them and strive to make a positive impact. The solutions that emerge from this journey are effective for future generations.
The documentary “The Caste Rush,” directed by Nikhil Singh Rajputt, is a shining example of this. By creating this documentary, Nikhil Singh has lit a lamp in society, inspiring others to do the same.

When one lamp is lit, others in their respective fields start working together, illuminating the path forward. They come together under one roof, each contributing their unique light, and collectively create a brighter future. This collaboration happens seamlessly, without us even realizing it. In the universe, our energies are interconnected. When we link ourselves to society and tap into this energy, our consciousness expands. This awareness enables us to make a positive impact.
The “Centre for Social Development”, led by Professor Rajkumar Falwaria, is an organization that promotes self-reflection and social awareness. As part of its initiatives, the Screening of The Caste Rush Documentary is being organized to highlight the importance of unity and social change. The documentary “The Caste Rush” has also been funded by Indict Dialogue. This film aims to break down the long-standing discussions that have divided Indian society. These divisions have prevented people from coming together, both openly and subtly.
This documentary also reveals a powerful force that fuels divisions. Now, it’s up to us to decide: do we want to live in unity, with a shared vision and collective strength, or do we want to be fragmented and allow external forces to interfere with our internal social structures, culture, and spiritual values?
The choice Is ours. By increasing our self-awareness, knowledge, and inner light, we can take control of our lives and our society. In essence, we must become our own guiding light – be our own lamp.
