The Urdu word ‘Jaag’ in its simplicity hides a meaning so deep. It symbolized awakening and no awakening is possible without realization, self exploration and a struggle for improvement. These are the very principles the forum Jaag stands for!
We shun our fears of rejection by the mainstream media; our quest is for the realization of real talent and exploration of that talent. We strive to help all those youngsters who do what they love not because they have any material gain attached to it but because it comes from the inside.
Your true talents joined together on this forum will create ripples in a stagnant pond; the time to shun your inhibition is now! Acceptance is a key a factor in any awakening and we accept that each individual has a talent. If it is not accepted by the masses it does not mean that it is not up to the mark. We are here to stand as a voice of our youth: the agents of change!
The tradition of true art and literature that got lost with the closure of the Pak tea house needs a renewal; we need an awakening, the first light after a dark night. Rise and join us we believe in the ideal of promoting talent of our youth. Robert F Kennedy once said, “Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope... and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance. “
Let us be the small ripples that join together to become a wave to sweep down all walls. The time for awakening has arrived; JAAG for it is your turn to shine!
