Dimapur, Dec. 29 (EMN): Convenor of Forum for Naga Reconciliation (FNR), Rev. Dr. Wati Aier, on Thursday, said Nagas gravitate towards idealism, and therefore advised to be realistic but imaginative, as imagination is not subjective idealism.
He was speaking during the silver jubilee celebration of Dorians Society (1997-2022), on Thursday, at Hotel Saramati, Dimapur.
‘I, as an elderly person, want to say we have taught you wrong things. Today we need to be inclusive, and forgive us if we taught you to be exclusive,’ he said.
“Exclusivity came from the wrong of elders and so do not follow us as we taught you wrong things. Young people have much better ideas than we do and it will be wrong for us to undermine young minds as they are much more informed and up to date,” he added.
He also commended the Dorians Society and called them ‘achievers’; he said they were not only an ethnic group leading the society but are determined in what they do.
To the young people, he encouraged them to keep doing what they have started, adding that they can excel in this world only if they are motivated.
‘25 years is not simple and it just does not come easily but it is all about sacrifice and imagination,’ he added.
Convenor of Jubilee planning and founding president, K Wapong Longkumer, shared a brief history on the society and the founding members, and how the Dorians Society became a household name.
