Should we change or should we "undo change"

This article has been written by Potharaju ravindra , author of the bestselling book " fools work hard for others"  .His latest release is "give me back my guitar" published by Macmillan India .
------------------------

Change”  has become the current global Buzzword for solving most problems .  Everyone is talking of  it and trying adapt to CHANGE like never before .

If organizations are not doing well then the usual conclusion is that they have not Changed with times and a “ Change Strategy “ is evolved and a “ Change Process “ put in place .

 If nations are having problems then it is not unusual to see leaders talking about “ Change “ .

Motivational speakers and most leadership programs will never tire of expatiating the virtues of change and also the dire consequences of not changing .

 Counselors will always advocate “ Change Yourself “  if you want to improve a strained relationship .

 But CHANGE from what ? No one talks about that .

 What is the reference point for change ? How do we know what to change and what not to change ?

 Do we have answers to the following questions ?

 Why do millions of people across the world , including in wealthy nations , go to bed on empty stomachs ? This is in spite of the fact that Nature  has provided so much that it can produce and feed ten times over the current global population  ,

 Why are millions of lives getting affected due to violence in the name of religion  .?

 Why so many people get killed due to meaningless war ?,  .

 Why do Companies only think of top lines and bottom lines ?

 You will observe that the problem lays in change .

 Change has occurred and that is why :

 Nations no longer follow their constitution . The great people who founded nations always thought about internal prosperity through global peace

 Original preaching of the religions has been distorted to suit few individuals. We all know that , no religion in this world preaches violence or hatred .

 Companies deviate from their Purpose and Core Values to keep the business analysts happy  . Founders of great companies  have “ Service to community ‘ as the Core to their business .

 If  Change from the original state is the root cause for so many problems across the world , then the question I would like to bring to your attention is :

                                     Should We “Change” ?

                                                 Or

                                     Should We “Undo Change “?

 Should we not endeavor to “ undo Change “ and revert to the natural state that ensures peace and prosperity at the individual level across the world .

 If change is the ONLY CONSTANT  then should we not keep UNDOING IT .
