The Waste Land.

Eliot`s The Waste Land. 

 1) I can say that Eliot concept in The Waste Land, he believe past movement with passes his life and he was not believe in future generation and passes his life but he follow in continue life in past way. And Friedrich Nietzsche, with the concept of superman and he follow the future generation concept. So Eliot's against Friedrich Nietzsche, so my point of. View that Eliot think are not good because past is passes our life and future coming our life so why we are follow past generating?But believe true science rules and regulation, practical true disition. So that is my point of view.





                Eliot seems to be regressive and backward looking as he presented the things , which was presented historical events, and myths, it led towards to find answer of contemporary malaise in Upanishad, Buddhism, and Christianity.

        2) Eliot talked that our salvation depends upon that cultural tradition which was preserved by our forefathers. But here the thing is that if someone who wants to salvation they must do hard work, find out new path, rather depends upon preservative cultural ideas, values, rules and regulations because it is not gave the inner happiness and satisfaction because there we depends on that tradition which was already there so we don’t something new rather follow that tradition.

   So, in life of modern men we find out chaos. They are mentally disturbed. In their culture we find out sexual perversion, spiritual drought and uneasiness also.

   Here in the waste land he not does something new in his poem rather he take examples which were preserved in cultural tradition and he compared that with modern things.

           So, he told to Eliot that we be good preserver, if chaos is to be avoided. Thus, if we want to be good preserver we must lives with greater vigor that is within us than does primitiveness. So, that great vigor gave us satisfaction, happiness and salvation.

                            (3) In the last question to the last Indian thoughts in the wast land. Eliot good work leads salvation and progress and bad work leads to damaya life. He uses the word “DA”.  The gods interpret this as

                                     “Damyatta”or “control”,

 The humans as
                                      “Datta” or “Given”,

And the demons as
                                     “Dayadhvam” or “Sympathize”
