“This is not a correct approach at all…”- Who said this? What is the ‘approach’

“This is not a correct approach at all…”- Who said this? What is the ‘approach” Class 12 | English (Strong Roots) 6 Marks

Ans:

The remark mentioned above is made by APJ Abdul Kalam’s father, Jainulabdeen.

The ‘approach’ discussed in ‘Strong Roots’ is the way in which people in agony try to satisfy the demonic forces with prayers and offerings. People in sorrow regard their anguish as the expression of anger of the demonic forces. In the process to calm down the demonic forces, Jainulabdeen plays the role of a special healer.

In the opinion of Abdul Kalam’s father such an approach is incorrect as it is an outcome of the fearridden vision of destiny. The correct approach is to endeavour to detect the enemy of fulfilment within oneself.
