Reason, State dictates rules

Reason, State dictates rules

Rain is raining on the roof top,

So I am sitting in my room,

One doubt comes

Through the gloom,

Posed by my students,

Will I arrive truth,

I am thinking in the room?

The question is,

If reason of state or common sense,

Would prevail,

In the management of public life?


To answer this question,

Not so easy, As I think deeply,

Because to answer,

It is to resolved,

What comes first:

Common sense, or

The ordain of State,

If Common sense prevails,

Subjects would fall

into an uncontrolled anarchy,

As everyone would be free,

To justify their behaviours,

And,

It would be like approving 

The clash of All individual's interest,

Against All,

As every individual wouldn't 

Act in conscience.


We know the principle that

If one doesn't keep smalI promises,

He wouldn't keep the big one also.

If he is able to act without chains,

All good hope would be gone,

The need of desperate people

Would lead to a System of jungleraj.


On the contrary, 

The Reason of State dictates rules, 

Sometimes very strict,

To act as a parental force,

And under compulsion or

Fear of punishment,

Everyone must observe the rule.


So it is necessary 

That the rule or reasonable 

Ordain of the State,

As Austin said, to take precedence,

Over reason based on common sense.


As I have read from different jurists,

Law is nothing but experiences of life,

Law develops by appreciation and

application of common sense,

There is thin line difference,

Between common sense

And Reason of State,

The rule made by state must

Be reasonable on the basis 

Of common sense 

And, Reason.
