Although the law exists since the beginning of civilization.
It was only officially declared in 1933 by writer Aksel Sandemose
in the novel “A refugee goes beyond limits”.
The sad truth is that the Law of Jante is a rule applied in every country in the world.
Despite the fact that Brazilians say that “this only happens here,”
And the French claim that “unfortunately, that’s how it is in our country.”
There are two kinds of kings who usually rule, one is the destructive lion king and the other is constructive humble king.
Now this destructive king want to rule, ultimately leading everyone to destruction.
Where as there is another humble king, who ultimately leads us to paradise of peace.
Here is a brief Explanation, Meaning of this law:
“You aren’t worth a thing,
nobody is interested in what you think,
mediocrity and anonymity are your best bet.
If you act this way, you will never have any big problems in life.”
The complete Law of Jante says:
Don’t think you’re something.
Don’t think you are worth the same as us. (you are worth nothing)
Don’t think you’re smarter than us.
Don’t think you’re better than us.
Don’t think you’re wiser than us.
Don’t think you’re more than us.
Don’t think you’re good at anything.
Don’t laugh at us.
Don’t think anyone care about you.
Don’t think you have anything to teach us.
Don't think that there aren't a few things we know about you. (We know everything about you)
( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jante_Law )
The Law of Jante focuses on the feeling of POWER.
And this law is accountable for the world being manipulated in all possible manners by people who have no fear of what the others say and end up practicing the evil they desire.
We see a huge abyss between the rich and the poor countries of the world, social injustice on all sides, unbridled violence, people being forced to give up their dreams because of unfair and cowardly attacks.
Mediocrity may be comfortable, up to the day that tragedy knocks at the door and people start to wonder: “but why did nobody say anything, if everybody could see that this was going to happen?”
So in order to prevent things from growing any worse,
maybe this is the right moment to write the Anti-Law of Jante:
“You are worth far more than you think.
Your work and presence on this Earth are important, even though you may not think so. Of course, thinking in this way, you might have many problems because you are breaking the Law of Jante – but don’t feel intimidated by them, go on living without fear and in the end you will win.” ( http://paulocoelhoblog.com/2012/02/03/the-law-of-jante-3/ )
My view of Expression, considering my experience to other nations:
This is very true. There is absolutely an urgent need for an Anti-Law of Jante.
I have been born and brought up in Southern Part of INDIA.
Recently returned back from UNITED STATES after 4 years (from 2005 to 2009).
This Law of Jante is very much applicable everywhere,
Right from my home, to my housing colony, to my city, to my state, to my nation, and also to other nations.
This law is considerably milder at home, it gets a little bit stronger within our city limits,
even much redundant beyond state or nation limits.
As and how we go away from our loved ones, this law starts becoming much rigorous.
It is more over contagious, spreading from one person to another.
While I was in United States, this law was a bit milder at Newyork.
Later while I was in Texas this law became a bit more redundant.
I noticed that happiness is possible only when we are with like-minded people.
When we are with calmer, gentler and humble intellectual societies.
The law of Jante gets rigorous and worst, especially when powerful people at Higher Authority start applying this law, who have the right to punish others in the name of Security, Law and Order.
While I was in USA in the year 2005, this law was at its peak high, due to George Bush Policies. Every patriotic American had become much aggressive and arrogant. This was also due to Higher Immigrant Populations migrating to this nation. With higher population of illegal immigrants which had made the native citizens and Border Security much aggressive. While comparing New-york to Texas I could feel that people were much aggressive in Texas compared to NY.
As I had traveled to US with a L1 visa, which I had obtained by one of the Indian Immigration Consultant, after paying his service charges, only after making sure that it was genuine with no real hard risks and threats of any legal violations. After all I never had any intentions to commit any crime. All I did was what everyone else did. In other words, I would have not taken the risk if the India Immigration Consultant would have not convinced me about the genuine visa. I was convinced that it was safe to travel with this particular visa to US, by this Immigration Consultant.
Before going to USA I always thought that it was much better in US than in India, but after reaching US I stared feeling the existence of this "Law of Jante". While in NY City, which has a huge business potential, with huge economy, with huge immigrant population, with lots of Indians, etc.
But still none were helpful to me, I was unable to get any financial help nor any social status.
I was also not able to find like-minded people who could help.
As this was the first time ever, I had traveled abroad, to another nation, it was a strange feeling.
I had never seen snow before this ever in my life-time. I felt NY was too cold for me. Thus due to my curiosity to see and
experience different parts of USA, I thought of visiting warmer southern regions of US along with a friend of mine from NY, even he was on some immigrant visa like myself, for some jewelery business.
As in Texas this Law of Jante became much stronger. But the climate was warmer comparatively.
With hope and optimism to search for a better work option I decided to stay.
Later in 2008 I also got an approval for my student visa H1 from USCIS. Which was green signal for me to continue with my education. The law of Jante was still applicable at this time too. But before joining the school college I was traveling within US from one city to another, from Texas to Virginia by Air Flight. Unfortunately while I was at the San Antonio
Airport, the security officer applied this law of Jante much rigorously, and as a result I was sent back to my native country India, after a charge sheet.
After returning back to India, still this law of Jante existed but was not so rigorous comparatively.
By this time my fight for creating a peaceful society had become much more rigorous.
My good fight had become much stronger.
I was much focused to create a calmer, gentler and humble society, so that I could live with peace within this society.
Today when I look back at my life, I feel proud that I have contributed in distributing peace and happiness to a possible extent. What ever best I could contribute.
I strongly feel that this law of Jante gets worst with the higher leadership policies.
It gets liberal with calmer, gentler and humble societies.
Now, after all this experience, I have realized that it is very important for us to live with like-minded people, to achieve respect and dignity, to get appreciation, legal status, which has a priority before any financial stability or security.
QUANTITY is appreciated only when it has QUALITY.
In other words, there is no meaning in creating wealth without a proper good purpose to serve the humanity with compassion and brotherhood.
I could see lots of quantity but without any quality even in these highly developed materialistic societies.
With a higher purpose and a border mind, I strongly feel that the Anti-Law of Jante needs to be popularized in order to achieve next level of human generation. To attain a peaceful future generation.
We are all messengers of divine creation of intelligence. Angels are watching all the time.
Prayers grow stronger when distributed.
History proves, the law of evolution, Humans have thus evolved to the next level of much cleaner, better, sophisticated generations.
Illegal Immigration has thus been a much bigger issue in USA:
It is quite true that there are millions of illegal immigrants in USA.
The question remains unanswered, as to who is responsible for the reason of their migration to USA?
It is very important to NOTE that these are poor people broken financially.
They are hard working and intelligent but job less.
They are the victims of selfish manipulative materialistic society. They are looking for some money to live their lives.
Why would they come to US if they were able to lead a happy life, back home?
What has global economic Recession got to do with their illegal migration?
Why would they work in US for peanuts without any basic respect and human rights?
Why do humans need to hide their identity from the system, even after working hard for lesser wages?
Which are the doors, they are going to knock, if they are betrayed of their wages and rights?
Below is a nice picture.

These LITTLE ANGELS, were introduced in a phase of my life, as a symbol of, “FREEDOM”, healing and blessing.
The period in my life when I returned back to my motherland INDIA, after a torture, humiliation, fatigued and heart broken memories of United States.
To be brief, I was in United States for almost four years. My visit to US was not fruitful nor a pleasant one.
I sometimes wonder, as to what was the driving force which made me visit US. I visited US as I had a false image, or rather a wrong image, that everything was perfect and unique in US.
All these things, very much gave me a false impression of USA being a SUPER POWER.
I thought there was no unemployment in US.
I thought this was a great country which had a GREAT purpose, to serve the HUMANITY, MANKIND, JUSTICE, LIBERTY and FREEDOM.
I thought people in US were intellectuals, I thought they were spiritually balanced with Calmness, Gentleness and Humbleness.
I thought there was Respect and Dignity to Human beings irrespective of Cast, Creed, Race or Religion.
I thought there was Transparency and Appreciations for Good Quality Human beings.
Any Intellectual who has visited US, and who is balanced with justice, who meditates for reasoning and solutions, will certainly says one TRUTH, that US has lost its very purpose of leadership. It’s very purpose to serve the Mankind.
People in US have become very arrogant, Greedy, Wicked, Self-centered, with an ego of superiority to accomplish Bad Desires and Bad Ambitions. Moreover very Materialistic and Practical environment.
United States was full of unnecessary artificial desires, exaggerations and elaborations of destructive desires.
But spiritualism to attain peace is all about being human, with only bare minimal, basic necessities and requirements.
Spiritualism is all about achieving constructive happiness.
Where as US is all about achieving destructive happiness to boost the economy.
US has a history of principles to inject extreme desires into peoples lifestyle in order to have vibrant economy.
I am not criticizing US but I am loving it only because I expect it to change its principles and policies for a better future of humanity.
US is badly in need of spiritual peace.

Since my childhood whenever I saw:
SUPERMAN, SPIDER-MAN, CARTOONS,
INVENTIONS on televisions,
Astronauts on MOON,
UFO’S from space,
The ROBOTS, FIGHTER AIR-CRAFTS,
NUCLEAR technology,
High graded SOFTWARE,
BIGGEST BUSINESS TYCOONS,Words richest PEOPLE,
The RICHEST country, The most POWERFUL as interpreted my MEDIA.
All these things, very much gave me a false impression of USA being a SUPER POWER.

Advocate Kunal Sharma, has betrayed me with false promises.
On one hand, justice system is critical for a better nation. Providing law and order to citizens. It's important for citizens to be patriotic, to be caring, helpful and kind to others. With a commitment and passion to provide justice. At the same time there are people who are misusing the power of law, to manipulate with the justice system. Recently I was betrayed by an advocate, who is supposed to provide justice to others by profession.
Advocate Mr Kunal Sharma has betrayed me. This person who is supposed to provide justice is doing injustice himself. Such people are a curse to this great nation.
