Tackling the majoritarian syndrome in cadre-based organization

An organization is governed by an unwritten set of principles that hold its sanctity and direction. These principles are protected not by rule but by the moral conscience of the majority cadre working in the organization. The majoritarian moral conscience assures that principles can be enacted in practice, but if the same opposes it, then no authority can guarantee them in the real sense of the word 'principle.'

The defying majority's goals replace the original path set as per the principles. The principles however righteous it may be, can never operate against a majority who are determined to defy it supported by an inaction of the authorities.

The silent minority allows the corrupt majority to legislate new rules towards their vested interests. Infact unable to adjust itself to changed and new condition, it falls back as an old man falls back into his arm-chair.

In a bid to challenge the authority, the majority manufactures it's own 'great men' that can take on the revolting minority that could stand loyal to the stated principles. This great men introduce idolatary which brings in blind worshipism and keeps criticism at par. They assure that their disciples never become wiser than their master for them to lead unquestionably.

The authority gets carried away by the perception play and overlooks the continuous decay tuning into songs of the glorification of the 'great men.' The original great men experience stagnation and come to a time when it sees no vision. They can't portray their worth as their worth is of the kind that they cannot speak of, or they are not conscious about it. Being frustrated by splendid isolation, they cannot help themselves much than to live as an outcaste in their own organization. Who will worship a scavenger even if he is motivated selflessly by the dynamics of a special purpose?

The chaos can only be challenged by a person with indisputable integrity with a high standard of moral righteousness, sincere convictions, and of public spirit, in courage, uprightness, and a certain soundness and rational moderation of judgment which springs quite as much from character as from intellect. On top of it, the patience to see dreams of others fulfilled in storms of unrest defines him. He must be cautious in his approach against the fugitive majority. The divinity in his goals must not provoke him to set up his ideal which is purely imaginary. He could even be victim of the same impersonal approach that he stands for.

Mazzini once said,"You may kill men, but you cannot kill a great idea." But how can an idea propagate without a medium?

The medium to propagate is to create cadre in the organization who would know the principles which once the organization stood for, and if they are convinced of their value and their worth, then to spread them. And like a scavenger, they must be ready to face all hardships, discredit, outcaste and tests of righteousness again and again to restore the principles on whose faith the organization can work to it's utility!
