Jaichand versus Godse
Actually there is no scope for comparison, except for a possible & quality called patriotism (which is controversial, about Godse π )
I was attempting to look beyond their actions….
( Ancients used to look thusπ°ππ’)
There is always a certain "quality" in us, which drives our thoughts towards translating it into actions!
So, which is a determining factor about a person and his character? Quality or action? ( Law looks at action as an evidence, to decide upon "cognizable offence".... Exactly why, Godse never attempted to plead, beg, request for any kind of mercy, pardon etc. He even refused to make a "statement" explaining the act of assassination, until judges complied with a condition he stipulated, namely the permission for journalists to record his statement. Ironically, we have a mighty evidence that the subsequent rulers of the nation deleberately kept this statement suppressed for 6 decadesππ€£π… why should an assassin's final statement be suppressed? This question never begets an answer!)
What were the qualities in these two historic characters, which drove them towards what they did in their lives?
Qualities….. traditionally are classified into two broad ways negative and positive π… Sanatana Dharma treats these as life_negative & life_positive qualities! In cosmic sense, it is stated very briefly as synchronous and asynchronous qualities( nature in a person)... Bengali language happens to preserve the concept of synchronous and asynchronous in the phrase "shoor, ashoor/ ΰ€Άूΰ€° ΰ€ΰ€Άूΰ€°" the epic stories called negative characters ( like Ravana, Kamsa etc) as ashoor/asuras…. irrespective of their extremely high qulaificationsπ πππ
So?
Jaichand???? At least we don't quarrel about his negativity ( of qualities).π
Which …..of the 4 main negativities did he possess? Oops! "He was possessed by negativity" π°πππ will be a better statement π°
4 are….. anger, hatred, resistance and fear…. Predominant ones might_have_been hated &/or resistance…. Anger or fear wouldn't have made him "famous" for his successful acts of treason πππ
Godse?
We don't have any "previous" record to substantiate the presence of any of the 4 negatives in him, from his "bio_data"( after the act of assassination, there was no scope to add to his biodata π€£….he got hangedπ)....
How often do we even_discuss about these 4 negatives, in a meaningful way in our trusted_conversations at least?ππ …. Are we equipped to evaluate these 4 in a search for life_partner or job_partner(H.R.)?????
Ancients had developed clear "visible signs" in the appearance of a person, to find out these negatives, and the "tolerable levels" of pollution in a person, due to the presence of these 4 πππππππ
I am ambitious that our education system attempt to revive the "science" of qualities needed, and those to be avoidedπ. ( We have fancy names "gunasheel, gunvanta, sarguna…. Sugunakara….etcπ€£…. Nothing to do with the owners of such namesπ)
Qualitatively yours,

Tail piece: there is a belief that "qualities" we imbibe, accompany us after life.....and absence of negatives liberate us from cycle of birth and death and ghost_situation as wellπ

How well you analyse and think where mind of most of us does not even bother to dwell or ponder. Qualities as well as intention defines our action. Intention is often looked into court but quality in courts care is limited to no quality or usound mind.
