616. A COMMUNIST PARTY CANNOT EXIST WITHOUT MARXIST IDEOLOGY.
//
A
revolutionary movement cannot exist without a revolutionary philosophy.
The Communist movement in India has not a philosophy since 1950s.
Promoting "CAPITALISM" means Anti revolutionary steps only.
//
Only
if the Party leaders understand Marx's crucial discovery that the
economic base of society determines the political and cultural
superstructure the danger of the position of that "free development of
capitalist society" will be convinced. Since 2002, I am trying my best
to convince the Communist Party (Marxist) leaders -- the Central
Committee and Politburo of this issue, but nothing
reach anywhere. Although the party program states in paragraph 6.5 that
the public sector will have a crucial place in the economy of
"people's democracy", the CPI(M) giving all support when BJP
Government privatizing each and every Public Sector assets. They don't
even understand the danger of the country becoming poor. No matter how
many all-India strikes are held, none of them will consider the demands
against the privatization of all public sectors and against a complete
ban on permanent appointments. There will not be a single word from the
party leadership against the complete elimination of job opportunities,
including for backward classes who deserve reservation. Such issues
will not be an issue even in the elections because the CPI; CPI(M) is
not prepared to make any change in its stance of "free growth of
capitalist society".
//
What the Communist leaders of 1950s, Comrades K. Damodaran and EMS, did not understand was not only that the entire written history was history of class struggles. contradiction-based materialism and class antagonisms, but also Marx's fundamental discovery is that the environment determines consciousness; consciousness does not determine the environment. Part of that is the discovery that a country's economic system deciding its political and cultural superstructure. These matters were made clear in the work "A Contribution to the criticisms of Political Economy", which Marx prepared before writing "Das Capital". This issue was presented distortedly in K. Damodaran's "Marxist Lessons". But that Comrade did not understand the issue. Otherwise, he would not have decided to promote Indian capitalism, which was built on Brahminism and feudalism. The monarchy was maintained by feudal lords. The capitalist system is maintained by capitalists or their money power. In India, it is the Indian National Congress and the BJP that protect Indian Corporates. In return, they will protect the Congress and the BJP. But no matter how much the Communist Party takes the stance that capitalism should grow, the Corporates, Congress, and BJP will not allow the Communist Party to survive in India. The philosophy of "Marxism" is entirely designed to establish all of this. It is quite natural that Pinarayi Vijayan, Prakash Karat, or Sitaram Yechury do not understand things that comrades K Damodaran and EMS do not understand. But what happens when we ignore the specific points made in all of Lenin's works is what is happening to the Communist Party of India, which has a history of over a hundred years.
//
Comrade EMS did not understand what democracy is, what the Constitution of India is, or the federal system of India. Therefore, considering Kerala alone, since it was not possible to complete five years in Kerala in 1957 and 1967, the CPI(M) Politburo stands firm in stating on page 53 of his work "The Science and Art of Working Class Politics" that there is no question of establishing "socialism" in India through "Parliamentary" means. But he don't knew that armed revolution and working class dictatorship are relevant only in monarchy, because, in MONARCHY, the whole "political power" vested only in the king and kingship was hereditary. If someone doesn't understand something, it's not their fault. But it's important to remember that the attitude of never changing their mind will affect a country of 1.4 billion people. Comrade EMS could not think outside the base or understand what democracy is, even though we ruled Bengal for 34 consecutive years. No state in India can move forward independently because the "sovereignty" of India lies with the Indian Parliament. If it wants to get a majority in the Indian Parliament, the Communist Party must be prepared to contest all elections across India. It must ask the people to vote for a socialist system. The CPI(M)'s stance at the 24th Party Congress, which has been continuing since the 1950s, that there will be no change in the independent growth of Indian capitalism, proves that it will never be ready for that. The "solutions" found was that it is enough to occasionally say "socialism is the alternative" proves that the comrades concerned simply do not know what capitalism is; socialism is all about.
//
If the party's political goal is a socialist system, then its foundation must be the common people, including the working class and farmers. They will protect that system. They will have the complete philosophy of Marxism to give them spiritual strength. That is what Lenin said: "While the working class finds its spiritual strength in philosophy, philosophy finds its material strength in the working class."
//
The
greatest helplessness experienced by the common people of India,
including the Indian working class, is that the Communist movements in
India will not accept the socialist system admitted by the
Constitution of India. .
//
In
all over the world, Communist parties can work only according to the
prevailing political conditions in any country. Even though the
Communist Party had been working in India for a hundred years, the
situation in India is not the same as it was hundred years ago. The
Constitution of India itself was amended in 1976, and the Indian
Government is currently a "sovereign; socialist; secular democratic
republic". According to it now any Indian citizen is also a person with
political power. During 1920-25 the political sovereignty of India
vested with the British Queen.
//
Party
Congresses become mere just ceremonies - Communist Party Leaders
don't understand that MARXISM not necessary except SOCIALISM. All
recorded history is part of class struggles -- the very origin of the "STATE" was to protect the interests of "slave owners" - What
exists are the laws they created for the rule of the exploiting class -
the continuation of the monarchy, the existing social laws, etc.,
and no one understands them. Because they don't understand what
Marxism is, they also don't understand that Marxism - and the working
class alone - can confront Hindutva extremists. Critics are seen as
enemies. The class enemies believe that the end of the Communist
movement in India is possible by deciding that no one should read
Harihara Kurup's social media posts; no one should respond.
//
When
there was a dispute over accepting "SOCIALISM" as "Party Program", as
Pre-revolutionary Russia was industrially backward, Lenin said that not
accepting SOCIALISM would only bury "Marxist ideology". The reason was
if SOCIALISM not the target, Marxist ideology cannot exist, because it
is the weapon of the working class' for establishing "socialism." That'
is the reason to write the work "What should be done?". That's where
the relevance of socialist ideology should not be underestimated even a
little bit. The acceptance of Lenin's words in Russia led to the
formation of the Soviet Union, which helped spread socialism throughout
the world. What Lenin pointed out happened in India. Lenin
said that if socialism is not accepted, Marxist ideology will only be
buried, which is exactly what happened in India.
//
The biggest proof that they have no idea what Marxism is that they do not accept socialism as Party Program. Promoting capitalism only means burying Marxism and socialism. That is the reason for the unity of all reactionaries, including the Congress and BJP, on the issue that there should not even a single red flag in India. In that, the Sangh Parivar, Jamaat-e-Islami, and Pamplani are all one. The
"COMMUNIST" leadership, which doesn't understand anything, won't understand that either. It also includes the stance that the BJP is "not fascist" because it is a stance that there are "no class enemies". The CPI(M) stance that each state is a unit is also part of it.
It is behind the stand that only peoples of Kerala deserves development. Because they does not even accept "working class internationalism". That too is part of the stance of promoting capitalism.
//
It is inevitable to understand from the experience of a hundred years that the Communist movement cannot survive without the basis of Marxist theory. But the Communist Parties in India are moving forward on the decision that when accepted "capitalism", the party should not survive. It is very hard to understand that "MARXISM" was introduced only to protect the world working class from the clutches of bourgeois exploitation. But even after a hundred years of its operation in India, it is not clear that socialist ideas have any special significance. What Lenin pointed out has happened in India. Lenin said that if socialism is not accepted as a party program, Marxist ideology will only be buried. That is exactly happened in India. That was happened when the late CPI(M) General Secretary Sitaram Yechury said that the Communist Party, with its hundred-year history, cannot save a country; only the bourgeois party called the Indian National Congress can save India. The philosophy of Marxism has completely disappeared. Despite claiming a history of a hundred years, no one knows what Marxist ideology is and whether it has any relevance in India. But that was not the case when socialism was the goal. Since 1950s in India, the goal of promoting capitalism has been adopted for over 75 years, and no one has know the true Marxist ideas. Marxist ideas have been completely abandoned, including the idea that the "Government," the "instrument of oppression" of the exploiting classes, as stated in the Communist Manifesto itself, should belong to the working classes. It is very hard to convince how the "BRAHMIN TACTICS"| working in India, the same worked in India through S A Dange and Sitaram Yechri itself.
//
SOCIAL JUSTICE IN SOCIALISM.
/
The
primary justice and foundation of socialism is to transform the
economic laws of the old monarchy into democratic ones. In a democracy,
political power is equal for all. The Indian Constitution should also
be amended accordingly.
//
What the Communist leaders of the 1950s, Comrades K. Damodaran and EMS, did not understand was not only that the entire written history was history of class struggles. contradiction-based materialism and class antagonisms, but also Marx's fundamental discovery is that the environment determines consciousness; consciousness does not determine the environment. Part of that is the discovery that a country's economic system deciding its political and cultural superstructure. These matters were made clear in the work "A Contribution to Political Economy", which Marx prepared before writing "Das Capital". This issue was presented distortedly in K. Damodaran's "Marxist Classes". But that Comrade did not understand the issue. Otherwise, he would not have decided to promote Indian capitalism, which was built on Brahminism and feudalism. The monarchy was maintained by feudal lords. The capitalist system is maintained by capitalists or their money power. In India, it is the Indian National Congress and the BJP that protect Indian Corporates. In return, they will protect the Congress and the BJP. But no matter how much the Communist Party takes the stance that capitalism should grow, the Corporates, Congress, and BJP will not allow the Communist Party to survive in India.

//
If the party's political goal is a socialist system, then its foundation must be the common people, including the working class and farmers. They will protect that system. They will have the complete philosophy of Marxism to give them spiritual strength. That is what Lenin said: "While the working class finds its spiritual strength in philosophy, philosophy finds its material strength in the working class."
//
Ever
since I heard in 2002 that the party's "view" was promoting capitalism
in a party class, I have tried my best to correct it. Through 22
letters one after the other, I have tried to convince the Central
Committee leadership that the philosophy of Marxism was not for
capitalism. At that time, the CPI(M) General Secretary was Comrade Har
Kishan Singh Surjit and the Kerala State Secretary was Comrade Pinarayi
Vijayan. Since the party as a whole have to examine all the
criticisms of the Party Program, a book was published titled "Why
Socialism Is Not Being Established in India?" (in Malayalam), which
included the basic principles and criticisms of Party Program". No one
understood the criticisms. The party decided that a party member did
not deserve the "membership" as criticizing being "mistake" of writing a
book criticizing the party program. Although received membership as a
new member in 2016, the party does not convinced that capitalism
should not be the policy of a Communist Party.
//
Social justice in socialism is not just only liberation from the exploitation of labor power experienced by the working class but also liberation from spiritual exploitation. Without
understanding the social justice of socialism, it is impossible to
defend Brahminism and its monstrous form, the Chaturvarnya system. It
is impossible to counter all communal arguments without conveying to the
people the Marxist view that all are human. The country's economic laws, which have been part of a long-standing monarchy, also need to be changed by the people in democracy. The four-caste system of Brahmin superamacy was implemented by the kings. According to Manusmriti, the "Brahmin Sabha" could decide what the "KING" not able to decide. That is why the BJP Government is challenging even the Supreme Court. The
Narendra Modi administration had no difficulty in overturning the
Supreme Court's Constitution Bench's decision that the Chief Justice of
the Supreme Court should be involved in deciding the Election
Commission. When they decide on an Election Commission that fully
accepts the decisions of the Sangh Parivar, they are able to implement
elections across India according to the decisions of the Sangh Parivar. People's democracy can only be established in socialism. The people have the eligibility to enjoy all the natural resources of the country. In a democracy, the majority of the people can decide matters. There was no opportunity for that in the monarchy. If there is majority in Parliament, amendments that apply to the entire country are also possible in the Constitution. Education, denied to the vast majority under monarchy, can only be made available to all under SOCIALISM.
//
Only if SOCIALISM is accepted as Party Program can its social justice be brought to over one hundred and forty crore Indian people. But those in the CPI(M) Politburo don't know whether there are any such thing as "social justice" in Marxism or socialism. None of them have ever heard of such a things. Because for the past 75 years, since 1950, they have only heard justifications for capitalism. All they know is armed revolution and the dictatorship of the working class. It cannot be told to anyone. They are unaware of the changes that have occurred throughout the world since the time of Karl Marx in the 19th century. They have not known that monarchies have disappeared and democracy has been implemented all over the world. Therefore, let the Indian National Congress or the BJP should rule in India. They will not allow CPIM to contest in Elections in all over India for SOCIALISM. That is the conclusion of the 24th Party Congress of the CPI(M). Communism and Marxism in name only. Socialism and Marxism -- the situation in India and the world during the 1950s was one where ideas "became material power". That was the perception in society that public sectors were the temples of the nation. The "promotion of capitalism" was the reason for eliminating all that.
//
The basis of Marxism is humanity. Even those who work have the right to live with dignity. That is the basic message of Marxism. Ninety percent of society is affected by it. Only ten percent of the wealthy are opposed to it. They own ninety percent of the country's wealth. Those are the social justices of Marxism and socialism. The vast majority of people are humane. They will only vote for socialism. But the Communist parties in India will never give the people a chance to do that. That is the main problem.
//
The fact that the stance that "there are no class enemies" will not change, no matter how many failures we experience, is only proof that it has nothing connected with Marxism. If those in the CPI(M) Politburo decide that they are able to do anything in the party, the party workers across India will have to suffer the consequences. The current approach is to get the people's votes by supporting all the evils of
capitalism. Part of that is the fact that in Kerala, apart from "development", facing elections without any kind of harm against bourgeois politics and are accepting successive stories of failure. It is not just the experience of the 2019 and 2024 parliamentary elections in Kerala that shows us that we are firmly protecting the foundations of bourgeois politics. To take as soft acceptance in the fact that it is a Congress constituency when the election results come out is to deny working class politics. If people are taught what Congress culture is, no one will vote for Congress. But that is not possible when capitalism is firmly entrenched, because "there are no class enemies". The Yechury "way" does not allow that.
//
The same thing is happening in Bengal and Tripura also. The Congress, BJP, and all other reactionaries have no doubt that there should be no red flag politics in India. But the CPI(M) Politburo cannot understand this in any way. That is the basis of the firm stance that the party program will not change. If capitalism alone is enough, the party's name should be changed. If it is a Communist party, it should accept Marxism. The party's stance should be "socialism" alone. Don't assume that P B can take any stand with millions of party comrades. Just stand firm in the "Indian Constitution". It has all the necessary elements. Because it was Dr. B. R. Ambedkar, the true representative of the Indian working class, who worked for it. The current position is to hand over the ruling of India any way to the Indian National Congress and merge with the Congress. The only thing is that the words using will be "unity of secular parties.". Now the Party is standing firm on the words of Sitaram Yechuri that only "Congress" can save India. That is why there was no consideration of changing the party program at the last 24th party congress. Even though out of PB, those who will decide things in the future will be those Prakash Karat etc.
//
The
concept that the exploiting classes can be "corrected" through
struggle is evidence of a lack of basic understanding of Marxism. When
completely changed to capitalism, there are no other options. An
all-India strike every year, against no one because
"CAPITALISM" should be strengthened. They don't know what democracy
is, they don't know what the Indian Constitution is, what the federal
system of India is. So for now, Kerala is enough. Because they know
nothing, they cannot even think about changing the "party program." The
only way is to repeat the old records at all Party Congresses. All
knew is that "the party nowhere says that "socialism can be established
through parliamentary means." The responsibility for that can be
completely place on to EMS. What a clever escape. So the shortcut found
by Sita Ram Yechury was that "only the Indian National Congress can
save India". None of the remaining Politburo members have any
differences of opinion placing the politics of INDIA to Indian
National Congress for the entire future of India. The conclusions of
last 24th CPI(M) Party Congress should be considered for ever of Indian
politics as Party Congress conclusions considering for the future as a whole.
//
The fact that the stance that "there are no class enemies" will not change, no matter how many failures we experience, is only proof that it has nothing connected with Marxism. If those in the CPI(M) Politburo decide that they are able to do anything in the party, the party workers across India will have to suffer the consequences.

//
Of course, to understand the "class struggle theory", one needs a third eye of goodness in the mind. Because no one is cruel because just they have wealth, nor is anyone good just because they don't have wealth. Engels, who helped Marx the most, was the son of a rich man and a businessman. The Communist leader in Kerala, Comrade EMS, was a landlord and a Brahmin. There are those who, despite being very rich, became poor by donating all their wealth to the poor. (St. Simon of France). In that list, Sri. Budha was a Prince. But Karl Marx's extraordinary talent caused the discovery that the conflicts between rich and poor has existed since the days of slavery and private property. It was because Karl Marx had it and hence, Engels said of Marx, "He saw from a great height and a great distance, like no other." It is the realization that there are people who work and suffer perpetual poverty; it has existed since prehistoric times; that makes Marx "hold the bar higher than anyone else." The position of Marx above all other great men is that he provides guidance for humanity as a whole.
//
Aryas were claimed that they were "DEWAS" and Dravidians are "ASURAS'. The evidence we could get from Harappa; Mohanjedaro culture. Their leader was "BHARADA" and he made his capital at "INDRAPRASTHA" at Delhi. Aryas killed thousands of Dravidas and after they made them SLAVES. Nobody will become slaves by themselves. Aryans were minority in population but were ferocious in nature. They knew use of horse and would attack sharply and destroy non Aryans who were the real inhabitants in India. The WONDERFUL THINGS WE CAN SEE IN OUR OLD TEMPLES AND OTHER PLACES MADE IN STONE which also part of Indian culture was built on the blood and skeleton of dravidian slaves. The DRAVIDIAN culture are far; far away when compared to "ARYA" culture which is based on 4 CASTE system. The EMPIRE MAHABALI; whose kingdom was known as everybody are equals; was also part of that. In India; Aryas came; Alexander came; Mugals came; and foreigners came. We should admit all of these and they all helped to make the present India. So India is a country of "UNITY IN DIVERSITY" and trying to destroy even any of them make hurt the social life. Now they all Indian Citizens and should be considered as equals. Anybody wants to go from India; that must be ARYAS first.
The evidence discovered from Harappa- Mohanjedaro taught us also this. The stone temples all over India had the work of only slaves and they were only Dravidians of encient India. Whether we could decide that they had themselves became slaves? Or Aryans killed a lot and balance kept as slaves? Aryans described themselves as Dewas and Dravidians were called as "Asuras". Dewa - Asura war was actually war against Dravidians. "Asuras" are old Dravidians.
//
Unfortunately, there were very few "Communist leaders" in India in the 1950s who had that. It is understood that the four prominent figures of that time were S. A. Dange; C. Rajeshwara Rao; Ajay Ghosh; and Basava Punnaiah. They understood nothing about the theory of class struggle, the cornerstone of Marxism. That is what led them to promote Indian capitalism and form an alliance with the Indian National Congress. Comrade EMS strongly opposed forming an alliance with the Indian National Congress because he had just understandings of what the "class struggle theory" is. But people like K. Damodaran, who did not even have a rough understanding, decided to promote "capitalism" in all its meanings skipping from MARXISM itself. The CPI(M)'s 24th Party Congress has reached the same situation. The reason for this was Sitaram Yechury's words, "Only the Indian National Congress can save India" declining MARXISM in total.
//
That is what all the hopes are placed on the Indian National Congress without understanding the fact that INC existing to protect Indian exploiters. The CPI and CPI(M) parties are in complete agreement on that matter. The position that SOCIALISM is not accepted means that Marxism is not accepted. Its purpose is to ensure that Brahmin rule and CORPORATE (MONEY) dominance should continue for ever. The depth and width of the ulterior motives of Brahminical tactics are far greater than anyone can comprehend, because it is rooted in thousands of years. Even if it is the small minority leadership of the "COMMUNIST" Parties that decides that socialism is not needed, the reason for that is solely the whims of Brahmin domination. Dange and Sitaram Yechury are in it. Even, it is the base of "only INC can save India". To prevent the growth of Communist Party in India.That is what happened when the late General Secretary Sitaram Yechury said that the Communist Party, with its hundred-year history, cannot save a country; only the bourgeois party called the Indian National Congress can do. The philosophy of Marxism has completely disappeared. Despite claiming a hundred years of history, no one knows what the Marxist ideology as.since 1950s in India, the goal of promoting capitalism has been adopted for over 75 years, and no one has known the true Marxist ideas.
//
Those
who don't understood anything what Marx, Engels, and Lenin had said
won't understand what a Harihara Kurup is saying. None of the people who
tried to teach it in India - Dange; K. Damodaran; EMS, etc. - really
not understood what Marxism is. This has become the tragedy of all
140 Crores people in India. Those who have come to leadership since then
cannot leave the "older
generation" behind. Otherwise, the "vision" of promoting Indian
capitalism would not have been reached in the 1950s because it's not
just something Marx, Engels, and Lenin said, it's completely against
what they said. They did not
fully understood that "all written history" is the history of class
struggles. In India, it is in the form of Brahmin supremacy and four caste system became in action. Dr B R
AMBEDKKAR was an actual victim of Brahmin supermacy in India. The
attitude shown to him was also an excellent example of poor grasping
capacity of MARXISM by those "COMMUNIST LEADERS" of 1950.
//
Even the
word "exploitation" was not understood by those who led the Communist
movement in India in the 1950s. The most important theory of MATERIALISM
based on contradictions is that there is unity and struggle between
opposites. But no one, including K. Damodaran, has been able to
explained it anywhere. It is as normal as birth and death; as breathing
in and out; as income and expenditure. History never repeats itself.
Because everything is always subject to change. That's something that no
one understands. No one will understand the changes that occur in every
object every second unless they are specifically explained. Under
favorable conditions, a seed germinates in three to four days. But every
second, the seed germinates as a result of changes occurring in it. If
the workers of the world unite, they can change the whole world. But the
class enemies are always on the alert to prevent that from happening.
They organize the working class and destroy it. They are destroying the
working class by organizing it. That is why the majority of the working
class in India is aligned with the organizations of the exploiting
classes. INC, BJP etc. bourgeois political parties organizing working
class only to continue their exploitation for ever by making them "VOTE
BANK". But even that is not understood by the "Communist" leaders.
Because for them, there are no "exploiting classes." The problem here is
the condition of the common people, who are incapable of understanding
any particular thing for themselves. Very few people even understand
that day and night are caused by the rotation of the Earth, and that the
Sun cannot rise or set. The exploiting classes use all their abilities
to fool them.
//
Marx's greatest contribution was his economic research. Marx
established in his work "Capital" that all wealth is actually created by
the exploitation of the labor power of workers, and that the worker who
produces all wealth is exploited. One of his famous quotes is - "He who
works does not achieve, and he who achieves does not work." If there is
a situation where the wealth that the capitalist acquires under the
capitalist system by exploiting
the labor power of all workers becomes the property of the nation -
that is, in a socialist system - it can be used for the overall
prosperity of the people of the country. But since socialism has been
postponed, it has not been possible to say such a thing to the working
class and the people in India for the past 75 years since 1950. That
means that Marxian economics is completely irrelevant when it comes to
promoting capitalism. We can't tell them about the economic exploitation
that the working class suffers. The theory of surplus value has to be
completely abandoned.
//
Promoting
capitalism means completely abandoning Marxist economy, including
Marx's theory of "surplus value." The great work of Marx, Das "Capital"
was written to teach the exploitation of labor power experienced by the
working class. But when capitalism is promoted, it is impossible to
teach about exploitation in party classes. When hearing how distorted it
is to take classes on Marx's "economics", any one will understand. You can't
teach "surplus value" without talking about production value. A comrade
in Bengal commented on an English post about surplus value, saying that
there is no such thing as production value. In effect, party classes
will become mere ceremonies. And that for a very long time (from the
1950s to 75 years). In such a situation, it is natural that no one,
including the Politburo members, knows what Marxism is. No one knows
what is its purpose of taught; why it is taught. The basic issue is that
exploitation is encouraged instead of eliminated. Disciplined party
comrades are cooperative in everything. What happens in effect is that
party classes become useless. Those who receive party class have
nothing to say to others. Real Marxism cannot be taught or preached
while capitalism is being promoted. Only through eliminating the
ideology MARXISM, capitalism can be promoted. That is going on for a
very long period. If we say that the "surplus value" in public sector
enterprises goes to the state, or that the public sector is the
foundation of the socialist system, neither the P B Members nor anybody
will understand. Because nobody knows anything except promoting
capitalism. //
What comrades K. Damodaran and EMS failed to understand was not only conflict-based materialism and class antagonisms, but also India's democracy and India's federal system. Marxism also recognizes that all recorded history is the history of class struggles. The slave revolt led by Spartacus that devastated the ancient Roman Empire is part of it. The Old Testament of the Bible is the history of the liberation of the people who were
slaves of King Pharaoh. In India, it was in the form of Brahmin rule.
//
Those Communist leaders including Dange, Damodaran, EMS, etc. considered that democracy meant rule by the majority only. They did not understood that political power, which had been concentrated solely in the king, is shifting to individual citizens in democracy. It was treated that socialism could only be established through armed revolution, which was only relevant in a monarchy. The monarchy was purely traditional. In India, which was made up of about five hundred princely states, there was not a single monarchy that could apply to the whole of India. There will be none in the future also. Even in Kerala, there were Travancore; Cochin; and Malabar (or "Zamuthiri" rule). Before independence, the political sovereignty of India vested to the British Queen. Marxism cannot deny the situation where every worker has political power. It is a characteristic of democracy and the position of Marxism that in a democracy, any worker is eligible to hold any position in the country. In a capitalist system, there is dominance by capitalists or their money. Only under a socialist system can it become a people's democracy - the rule of all people, including the working class.
//
What is "MAN POWER EXPLOITATION" suffering an employ.
Marx
divided a working day into two parts to explain the economic
exploitation suffering by every worker. Marx established that the
worker does the work necessary for the wage he is paid in the first half
of the working day, and that the second half of the working day is
spent doing more than the wage he is paid - a surplus. The second half
contains the "exploitation of labor power" experienced
by the worker. That is the basis of the theory of surplus value.
Considering the changes in the mode of commodity production since Marx's
time, the capitalist will get at least one hour's extra labor power
from a modern worker who works eight hours. What is being said here is
about a worker's day, and it should be taken into account in terms of
weeks, months, and years. If a firm has at least a thousand workers, the
employer gets a thousand hours in a day. That should be calculated in
weeks, months, and years. It should be calculated in weeks, months and
years. If there are at least 50 Crores workers out of 140 Crores people
in India, then Indian capitalism gets 50 Crores hours in a day. Marx
also established in his economic research that the basis of the wealth
that "God" gives to capitalists is actually created by them solely
through the exploitation of the labor power of the worker. What has
happened in India since the 1950s is that when capitalism is promoted,
none of this can be said to the working class.
//
Those
who examine his "Marxist Textbook" of Com.K Damodaran will understand
that the Communist leadership, including K. Damodaran, in the 1950s was
not convinced of what "exploitation" meant. The problem of a socialist
system that eliminates exploitation only arises when it is realized that
it exists. Those who have not experienced poverty cannot understand
what it is. Neither the CPI nor the CPI(M) party classes present the
word "exploitation" in a way that gives it any significance. The same is
true of spiritual exploitation. Therefore, the state of its
disappearance is not important to them. That is why they decided that
the materialist argument based on contradictions does not apply to
India. That was the cause of "ARSHA BHARATH" came forward in CPI
politics significantly than socialism. Therefore, the state of its
disappearance is not important to them. That is why they decided that
the "MATERIALISM AND DIALECTICAL MATERIALISM" does not apply to India.
That too has been the position since the 1950s. That is why no one in
India is convinced that Marx's economics, including the "surplus value
theory", is serious. That's why no one understands the reason for the
state of the Communist Party in India. It was decided that the name
"Communist Party" alone would suffice. All these "theoretical base"
leading towards the position that "ONLY INC CAN SAVE INDIA".

MARXISM
accepts Charles Darwin's theory of evolution and Lewis H. Morgan's
anthropological studies because Marxism is a Social Science. Over
billions of years, all the living organisms found on Earth today have
evolved. But all religions say that God created everything by saying without any Scientific basis, they teach people falsehoods made from mud, etc.
//
Comrade
K. Damodaran and others were aware that Marxism accepts Darwin's
theories of evolution and Lewis H. Morgan's anthropological studies.
Because Comrade K. Damodaran's book "Manushyan" talks about it all. But
even that Comrade did not understood why it was part of Marxism.
Theories of evolution and anthropological studies are facts accepted by
the scientific world. Marxism accepts them to correct the false
knowledge that man was created
from clay, etc. as stated in religious texts. Nowhere does it say that
Communist parties accept such things. (Those facts affected considerably in
"CPI" politics and caused to admit "ARSHABHARATHA" also).
//
What
comrades EMS and K. Damodaran failed to understand was not only that
written history is the history of class struggles. Marx's greatest
contribution to materialism is that "thought" cannot be separated from
the "brain", the biological substance that thinks. Which also
should be added as part of Marx's MATERIALISM as that is the basis of
human thought is the biological entity through the "brain". "MARXISM" formed through the process of thinking by Karl Marx through the live material substance "Brain" of Marx. Human culture developed through
millions of years since "tribes" were formed. So many ideas formed
through the thinking of ancestors which helped their normal living
such as languages, medicine, mathematics, etc. etc. Religious books
and "gods" formed only after getting considerable period in normal life
and after private property system as for such things "languages" are
inevitable. Religious
texts are shaped in the same way through the thinking of Moses; Mohammad; Veda Vyasa; Vatmiki, etc. While Marxism posits that
all humans are human, religious texts create the idea that none of us
are human. They create conflicts with each other. The murders that are
part of it are sequels. Along with them, they also create anti-science.
Nature is indeed full of wonders. Contrasts and diversity are part of
nature. None of that can be changed by any "gods" that are part of human
imagination. That is what Lenin said: "Marxism is invincible; because
they are true."
//
Unfortunately, the Communist Parties in India are unable to accept that the basis of Marxism is "humanity". They don't care how the vast majority of India's more than one hundred and forty crores people live. Seventy-five percent of the total Indian wealth is held by just ten percent of the population. Of that, seventy-five percent is held by just sixty-five families. That means ninety percent of the population is experiencing hardships in life. Unfortunately, the Communist Parties in India have been working hard since the 1950s - including through strikes - for the free growth of Indian capitalism. In India, it is simply known as the "Communist Party". A Communist Party that takes the position that there are no class enemies will only create astonishment in anyone who understands Marxism. Even the fact that the number of members in the Indian Parliament decreases with each election is not an issue for them. No matter what, they will not ask the people to vote for a socialist system. There are problems in India that can be solved if fair prices for agricultural products and a minimum wage of at least Rs. 500 for agricultural workers can be ensured. But that is possible only when a political change happens in India through the working class movement. Farmers in India waged a fierce strike that lasted for over a year in 2021. About a thousand farmers committed suicide during that strike. The stance taken by the Indian National Congress in that struggle was in favor of the Hindutva Government and Corporates. The communist parties are taking refuge in the Indian National Congress, which the Indian people abandoned after realizing that it could not solve any of India's problems after ruling India for more than 65 years. Because the position taken since 1950 is that there is no such thing as class enemies in India. That is the basis of the position that Indian capitalism should be promoted. Despite I have been doing my best efforts against this since 2002, experience so far has been a miserable failure.
//
Karl Marx could understood the contradictions in the interests between the slave and the master and between the worker and the employer. Without understanding the living circumstances which the "slaves" were suffered in "SLAVERY PERIOD", nobody could grasp the "contradictions" between the "SLAVE AND THE MASTER". Karl Marx could understood the power when working class all over the world gathering together, so Marx exhorted the world working class: "Unite, you have nothing to lose, but you have a great world to gain." But unfortunately, for a hundred years since working, the "communist" leaders in India do not seem to understand it. When Capitalism promotes, actually promoting slave owners; and their successors; Exploitative classes are now encouraged; which couldn't understood the so called Marxists K Damodaran; E M S; it remains a great mystery that no one, including K Damodaran and EMS, understood and still does not understand the theory of class struggle totally neglecting in effect. Any idea, any tool will be useful only for actually what it is intended. Marxism will not work if it is used against the working class and common peoples. That is happening in India since 1950s. Attempts to promote capitalism means only to exploit working class and common peoples more and more. Kindly do justice even to Karl Marx, who spent his entire life only for working class and eradicate capitalist form of exploitation otherwise at least avoid using his photo.

If a Hariharakurup says that "MODERN PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY" is part of Marxism, those who do not understand what "Marxism" will not understand anything. Because they still don't understand what democracy is. "Monarchy" was a social system that lasted for a very long time all over the world. It was hereditary. It was considered that "kingship" was a gift from God. That has completely disappeared all over the world.
Newly formed countries will not have hereditary monarchies. India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh were all countries that came into being in this way because when India got Independence in 1947, there were about 500 local "KINGS" all over India, but there were none as "INDIA". The reason behind the change was happened all over due to the influence of USSR. The world for this change is that socialism, led by the Soviet Union, became a social force in the world. The benefit to humanity that came from the Soviet Union's victory over Germany in World War II was the elimination of colonial tendencies around the world and the implementation of Modern Parliamentary Democracy all over the world.
//
Exactly, "MODERN PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY" is the after effect of the birth and the growth of old "USSR" and situations were changed all over the world after 2nd WORLD WAR. If the people of a country accepting the philosophy of humanity, Marxism and socialism, no one can destroy it. Proof of this is the former Soviet Union was able to survive the counter-revolutionary coup that lasted for four years after the October Revolution of 1917. Another proof of this is the defeat of Germany in World War II. The trend of making colonies all over the world by imperialist forces had also an end when USSR became a world power by victory over Germany. To defeat Germany, about 1.5 Crores men of old USSR had lost their life and their victory was very hard which was actually the power of MARXISM, and if USSR had failed, the victory of NAZI/FASCIST forces had been prevented even the present modern Parliamentary democracy. The success of CHINA was also the result of the victory of USSR in 2nd world war. When "CHINA" also in the field of "SOCIALISM", about 2/3rd portion of world population became socialist, which also have some good effect in MODERN PARLIAMENTARY DEMOCRACY.
//
Marxism, which admits Charles Darwin's "theory of evolution" and Louis H. Morgan's "Anthropological studies", admit "democracy" also in which the political power of the kingdom transferred to the individual citizen, which was "only vested in the king" in the monarchy.
//
In all over the world, Communist parties can work only according to the prevailing political conditions in any country. Even though the Communist Party had been working in India for a hundred years, the situation in India is not the same as it was hundred years ago. The Constitution of India itself was amended in 1976, and the Indian Government is currently a "sovereign;
socialist; secular democratic republic". According to it now any Indian citizen is also a person with political power. During 1920-25 the political sovereignty of India vested with the British Queen.

"ANYTHING IS THAT, BUT IT IS NOT".
Everything is always changing. An important discovery in MATERIALISM that preceded Karl Marx. (This was pointed out by Sri Budha and also one Greek Philosopher).
One most important point of "MATERIALISM" is that every things are changing in each and every second even though nobody is knowing it. In each day, everybody is changing which making themself something different from previous second which actually beyond their control, but everybody noticing only after some periods are over. "Anything is that; but it is not".
"YOU" are the same person, what was ten years back. But now you are changed physically. When did it happened? But you are the same person what was ten years back; but actually not. Every things are changing in each and every second and nobody can prevent it. Everything is always changing. A baby is always growing. But it is only later that it comes to our attention. It's just that the change that happens then doesn't come to our attention. This is for everyone; applies to all things. One year warranty on items we purchase; or two-year guarantee; after a certain period of time, they become obsolete and sometimes become useless. When did it get old? Those objects become obsolete due to the change that occurs every second. Then it is a fact that one can be convinced that "whatever it is, but it is not.
//
Karl Marx points out that changes is not consciously created by anyone. It happens by itself. Childhood, youth, old age and death will occur as a result of the change in the human body. It is not only in human body, but also happening each and every living thing whatever it is. It is controlled by nature and actually this is the facts behind "GOD", but human GODs also can't do anything by "praying of anybody. Anyone can try for the change as they want. But changes will happen even though like or don't like. No one can stop it. Just try to make the changes positive.
//
Marx
points out that the changing happening in each objects making changes
the surroundings also which also happening beyond the controls of
anybody. It is a fact that his findings were apt since the
Paleolithic era of history and the changes to slavery system,
feudalism, capitalism and the same will move to socialism through out
the world. Marx also pointed out that the changes that happening
every second in all material things is also happening in the universe
and society also. Although Hindu Communalists took a pro-British
stance during the Indian independence movement, the British
eventually had to leave India despite a series of massacres including
the Jallianwala Bagh by British rule in India. India got
independence on August 15, 1947. It didn't happen as they wished.
But what was lead to the the outcome of the freedom struggle in
India? In 1857, the first war of independence against the English
East India Company, which ruled India at that time, was also part of
it.

What is spiritual exploitation?
??
Spiritual exploitation is worse than the economic exploitation suffering by the working class. When
the "slave system" existed, the slave was taught that his slavery was
due to the sins of a previous life, and that if he continued to be a
"slave" in this life, he could reach heaven in the next life. (But "MANUSMRUTI" is deadly
against the "theory" of "rebirth" due to the reasons of previous life
of the "soul". (According to "MANUSMRUTI, BRAHMIN CAME FROM CHEST OF
BRAHMA; KSHATHRIYA FROM CHEST OF BRAHMA; VYASHYA FROM WAIST; SHUDRA
FROM FOOT). Then the
slave did slave labor without any resistance. The slave would never
understand that it was just an exploiting class tactic. The
basis of spiritual exploitation is that life on earth is not real life;
real life is after death. Through this, the exploiting classes make man
willing to endure anything. This is the position of all religions. In
the "Mahabharata" story, the justification for killing everyone in the
"Kurukshetra War" is not the material life in earth is "truth", but real
life is after death and the "sole" have no birth or death. The main
argument is that the soul is eternal and true; it has no birth or
death." Marxism's position is that material life is truth. The mind is
the part of the brain of a conscious person that stores knowledge. Once
things are "in the mind," the "mind" stores that knowledge securely. But
in the case of a disease that affects the mind (mental illness);
"Alzheimer's", the "mind" does not function in an unconscious state. If
brain death occurs due to any reason, the "mind" also dies. But
according to spiritual arguments, the "mind" is the "soul". All
religions hold the position that "the soul has no death". The argument
that "everything is God's will" is a ploy to cover up the poverty that
has been part of the economic irregularities in society since the
monarchy, and the cruelty shown to them. The spiritualist ideology that
"everything is God's destiny" perpetuates the ignorance and poverty of
the poor. Spiritualists are ever vigilant to prevent education from
reaching the poor. That is the reason for the tactics to eliminate
public schools as much as possible.
//
//
Language and scripts emerged only after human
culture had developed to a great extent. Only after that did religions
and their gods emerge. There was no God before the Bible was written, no
God before the Manusmriti was written, and no God before the Quran was
written. Rebellions in the name of gods create disunity and rebellion
for humanity. In nature, only humans see numerous gods and murders in
their name.

Ever
since I heard in 2002 that the party's "view" was promoting,
"capitalism" in a party class, I have tried my best to correct it.
Through 22 letters one after the other, I have tried to convince the
Central Committee leadership that the philosophy of Marxism was not for
capitalism. At that time, the CPI(M) General Secretary was Comrade Har
Kishan Singh Surjit and the Kerala State Secretary was Comrade Pinarayi
Vijayan. Since the party as a whole have to examine all the criticisms
of the Party Program, a book was published titled "Why Socialism Is Not
Being Established in India?" (in Malayalam), which included the basic
principles and criticisms of Party Program". No one understood the
criticisms. But the party decided that a party member did not deserve
the "membership" as criticizing being "mistake" of writing a book
criticizing the party program. Although received membership as a new
member in 2016, the party does not convinced that capitalism should not
be the policy of a Communist Party.
