तंत्र्य हा आपल्या शिक्षणाचा पाया असायला हवा! स्पर्धा, बक्षिसं आणि शिक्षेला त्यात स्थान असू नये. मुलं पुस्तकातून लिहायला आणि वाचायला शिकतात; परंतु पुस्तकातला अर्थ त्यांना केवळ अनुभवातूनच समजून घेता येईल. पाठ्यपुस्तकं पाठ करून परीक्षेत पास होणं म्हणजे खरं शिक्षण नव्हे. मुलांनी निरीक्षण व प्रयोग करून नवं ज्ञान मिळवायला हवं. शिकणं ही एक मजेची प्रक्रिया असावी आणि ती आयुष्याच्या वाटचालीचाच एक भाग असावी!

भर वर्षांच्या अथक, एकाकी, समर्पित, कष्टप्रद, काही काळ यातनामय वाटचालीनंतर संघ आज निर्विवादपणे सत्तेत केंद्रस्थानी उभा आहे. संघाने स्पष्टपणे सांगितलंय आमचा फक्त एककलमी कार्यक्रम आहे, ‘हिंदूंचाच हिंदूस्थान' म्हणजे हे हिंदूराष्ट्र आहे. भारत हे संघराज्य नाही ते एक राष्ट्र आहे आणि हा देश एकाधिकारशाही मानतो. भारतरत्न बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर राज्यघटना बनवत असताना ऑरगनायर्झरने त्याला कडवा विरोध केलाय. या देशाची घटना मनुस्मृतीवर आधारित हवी म्हणून सांगितले. राजकारण करताना ‘वारांगनेव नृपनिती अनेकरूपा' हा मंत्र बरोबर ठेवा आणि मुखवटे घालून राजकारणात वाटचाल करा. हा आदेश संघाने राजकारणात पाठवलेल्या स्वयंसेवकांना दिलाय. पुरोगामी परिवर्तनवादी चळवळ ‘मुंगेरीलाल के हसीन सपने' म्हणून त्याकडे उपेक्षेने खरंतर उपहासाने पाहत उभी होती. आज ही चळवळ भांबावलेल्या खरंतर भेदरलेल्या अवस्थेत आहे. त्यामुळे खरी गरज आहे, यातून बाहेर येवून संघाची शक्तिस्थाने आणि मर्मस्थाने जाणून घेण्याची व पुरोगामी परिवर्तनवादी चळवळीने केलेले ‘हिमालयीन ब्लंडर' समजावून घेत रणनीती ठरविण्याची.या व अशा प्रश्नांचा मागोवा घेत अस्वस्थ मनस्थितीत गेल्या दहा वर्षात दत्तप्रसाद दाभोळकर यांनी लिहिलेल्या काही प्रमुख लेखांचे हे संकलन. आज आपणासमोर असलेल्या धार्मिक, सामाजिक, सांस्कृतिक राजकारणाचा चक्रव्यूह समजावून घेण्यासाठी हे पुस्तक वाचले आणि संग्रहीपण ठेवले पाहिजे.
