Controversial
and
maverick
film
director,
Ram
Gopal
Varma,
who
has
often
taken
jibes
at
Powerstar
Pawan
Kalyan,
has
written
an
open
letter
to
the
actor
turned
Janasena
chief.

This
is
an
open
letter
I
wrote
to
Pawan
Kalyan
after
i
read
his
book
ISM
on
PAWANISM
which
at
that
time
got
published
in
Hyderabad
times
Hey
Pawan,
Before
talking
about
ISM,
I
must
confess
that
I
have
long
been
obsessed
with
the
idea
of
you
starting
a
political
party.
I
have
always
admired
the
intensity
in
your
honesty
and
the
explicitness
of
your
integrity,
and
yes,
I
was
also
mesmerised
with
your
first
speech
at
the
launch
of
your
Jana
Sena
party.
When
I
heard
that
a
book
called
ISM
was
going
to
be
launched,
I
was
truly
ecstatic.
Being
a
voracious
reader
since
childhood,
I
finished
reading
Immanuel
Kant,
Arthur
Schopenhauer,
Descartes,
Wilhelm
Hegel,
Friedrich
Nietzsche,
Baruch
Spinoza
and
Ayn
Rand
way
back
in
my
engineering
college
days
in
vijayawada
and
then
moved
on
to
various
modern
day
philosophers,
who
thought
much
forward
in
terms
of
applied
philosophy
to
restructure
rapidly
changing
societies.
A
far
superior
advancement
in
those
thought
processes
of
all
those
earlier
philosophers
is
what
I
actually
expected
from
your
ISM.
And
why
I
expected
that
was
because
of
my
adulation
of
your
near
perfect
instinctive
intellect,which
I
have
always
been
observing
in
you.
But
when
I
finally
got
to
read
ISM,
I
was
appalled
at
the
elementary
school
understandings
of
the
great
social
philosophies
articulated
by
your
co
writer
Raju
Ravi
Tej
Please
note
that
I
am
primarily
addressing
Raju
Ravi
Tej
because
he
has
the
primary
credit
as
the
author
of
ISM
..Also
I
have
chosen
to
express
my
views
on
ISM
on
a
public
platform
only
because
ISM
is
meant
for
public
consumption
From
your
gestures,
your
lines,
your
expressions
and
even
your
pauses
at
your
meetings,I
can
tell
you
that
you
have
more
instinctive
wisdom
than
what
is
there
in
the
whole
of
your
entire-most-non-explanatory
book
called
ISM.
You
truly
don't
need
the
over
used
crutches
of
dead
and
gone
philosophies
and
that
too
so
falsely
represented
Its
evident
that
you
neither
read
Arthur
Schopenhauer's
The
World
As
Will
And
Idea
nor
Immanuel
Kant's
The
Critique
Of
Reason
and
probably
just
depended
upon
your
primary
writer's
extremely
superficial
misreading
of
it.
The
basic
fact
of
the
matter
is
that
your
instinctive
originality
has
been
corrupted
by
school
boy
interpretations
of
Schopenhauer's
Metaphysics,
Kant's
Epistemology
and
Marx's
Dialectic
Materialism.
To
make
matters
worse,
you
have
been
diverted
into
a
very
wrong
direction
by
a
complete
non
understanding
of
existential
nihilism.
Please
understand
that
the
best
of
yesteryear
philosophies
have
already
been
absorbed
into
the
evolution
of
modern
societies
and
what
is
needed
now
is
100%
pure
Pawanism
and
not
an
adulterated
version
of
pseudo
philosophical
understandings
of
second
handers.
Philosophy,
in
its
simplest
form,
is
a
pursuit
of
truth,
but
truth
by
itself
cannot
be
absolute
in
an
ever
changing
society.
Ayn
Rand
said,
"The
pursuit
of
truth
in
general
is
not
important
but
the
pursuit
of
a
particular
truth
is
important
which
helps
you
in
reaching
your
intended
goal."
Ninety
percent
of
ISM
doesn't
have
a
single
goal
oriented
direction
pointer
in
comparison
to
your
inherent
arrow
like
vision,
which
was
so
clear
in
the
inaugural
speech.
Also,
the
very
thought
of
moulding
a
relevant
ISM
for
today's
requirements
to
be
based
on
outdated
philosophies
of
bygone
eras
is
like
wantonly
carrying
an
unnecessary
and
fatal
burden.
Bruce
Lee,who,
incidentally,
apart
from
being
a
fighter
was
also
a
philosopher,
once
said,
Knowledge
should
be
used
like
the
steps
of
a
ladder
to
climb
up.
You
should
leave
the
step
behind
once
you
climb
up.
But
if
u
keep
collecting
all
the
steps
you
have
climbed
upon,
their
combined
weight
one
day
will
not
let
you
climb
further.
You
should
never
carry
what
should
carry
you.
Hey
Pawan,
I
mentioned
Bruce
Lee
because
I
truly
feel
you
are
a
combination
of
his
focused
intensity
and
dynamic
integrity.
Bruce
Lee's
style
is
unique
because
he
refused
to
be
influenced
by
others.
Only
what
you
feel
yourself,
and
how
you
express
it
yourself,should
be
your
own
unique
philosophy.
As
a
well
wisher
and
an
admirer,
I
implore
upon
you
to
get
away
from
diversive,
destructive
and
corruptive
influences.
As
a
last
word,
I
want
to
tell
you
that
yes,
I
am
thoroughly
disappointed
with
your
ISM
but
I
still
have
faith
in
PAWANISM
