Hindu Dharma and ‘Hindutva’ are the true protective sheath of secularism compared with other religions
‘Hindu Dharma’, the only universal Dharma that does not claim ‘It is the only way, the rest are false’ !
India has over 80% Hindus. Their ‘Hindutva’ is the true protective sheath of secularism ! Administration must guard it !
Only under Judaism, followers of other religions are not accepted !
Judaism is the most ancient among the religions claiming supremacy over other religions, believing what its Holy Scriptures preach is the ultimate truth and the last word. However, this religion emphasises on increasing its race, does not allow conversions of followers of other religions; therefore, there is no threat from followers of Judaism that there would be a cultural invasion on Hindus by them in this era of democratic governance.
Jesus Christ, who later became the founder of Christianity, was a Jew and he founded a new religion because of one ideology that believed in extremism. The Jews had to leave their homes later and the religion offered by Christ to his followers promoted mainly gaining of power.
Covert conspiracies of Christians and Muslims to convert people and take over their countries
While comparing religions such as Hindu, Christianity and Islam, Hindu thinker Navaratna Rajaram has said that the basic elements of Judaism, Christianity and Islam are found in ‘Biblical’ or Semitic (a sect in Israel) tradition. Considering this in the larger historical context, we can find a common thread in today’s Islamic and Christian political inconsistencies. The ultimate goal of these Semitic sects is to gain political power using the democratic system with the help of their sheer numbers. Christianity and Islam do not believe in nationalism (A new materialistic sect called Communism got included in them later), but in certain States where the Christian or Muslim population has become a majority, these States are called Christian or Islamic States. In both these types of States, there is always an overt or covert conspiracy to convert people and the country.
The Indian Continent and its surrounding poor regions are their soft targets to increase their population. It is quite obvious and there is no need to read new books on this subject. There is, however, a need to look at the incidents taking place now, with a new fearless (comprehensive) Hindu view.
Idol-breaker Christians and Muslims
While propagating Christianity in Europe, the Christian missionaries took lead in eradicating the ‘Pagan (Idol-worshippers)’. Everyone also knows that to propagate Islam, even in the central-east Asia, how the followers of the Prophet so gruesomely defeated the original Idol-breakers (who were Arabs). Today, after some centuries, Islamic history is also being re-evaluated and re-written.
‘Hindutva’ is the true protective sheath of ‘secularism’
There is no future for the intolerant religions who claim that what their Holy scriptures say is eternal and the final word. They will have to change as per the place, time and situation. There is no single Holy scripture of Hindus, no such representative or Prophet or Messenger who claims that there is only one God.
Christians have only one Scripture – Bible. They have one God who has one son. The son’s followers are taught that those who believe in him will go to heaven. Hindus started thinking that this was the strength of Christians and so they selected Shrimadbhagawadgeeta as their Holy Scripture. This was the right selection. Many revolutionaries had taken oath holding the Geeta and gone to the gallows. Hindu unity, therefore, got consolidated.
However, after bestowing all knowledge, Shrikrushna advised Arjun in the Geeta to do whatever he could. (Shrimadbhagawadgeeta, Chapter 18, Verse 63). He did not force Arjun to act as per His advice. This is the only country where there is freedom to worship any God, follow any rituals or worship; contemplation on Dharma is advised, but duties should not be forgotten.
This country has more than 80% Hindus. Their ‘Hindutva’ is the true protective sheath of secularism. It is, therefore, the duty of the administration of Hindustan to see that the Hindu population doesn’t reduce in the world. Those who convert and take Hindus in their dogmatic sects must be opposed and be made to realise the liberalism of the 21st Century, particularly so for the believers in one God, who are still stuck in the traditions followed in the middle ages.
Islam was first opposed in India
It is clear that Christianity was propagated through the sword. Later, Islam too was similarly propagated. What was once a Hindu and Buddhist country has now become Afghanistan. Thugs used to raid Hindustan – Turks, Barbar, Mongolian (from the Muslim community), but their religion was Islam; therefore, they started to be known as ‘Mussalman’. Islamic religious invasion of Europe and Central Asia till Afghanistan became easy. These religions were first opposed effectively in Hindustan. Arabs had planned to bury old ‘Pagan (Idol-worshippers)’ history while adopting Islam. Similarly, Persian culture was its second victim. Arabs expanded their rule. They became imperialists and used Islam as a means of expanding their empire.
Iranian Muslims becoming aware of their Iranian roots
After the World War 1, European Christians took control over the Islam-based countries. The allied countries (America, Britain, France, Russia, etc) divided the countries among themselves.
There are 52 Muslim countries in the world, but some of them are Islam-based. In an Islamic Republic country such as Persia, most Muslim citizens have a grudge against Saudi Arabia. The feeling of their being Iranian first and then Muslims is now increasing amongst them. Iranian rulers are encouraging religious books in the Persian language instead of reading religious books in Arabic. They insist that their original culture was destroyed by the Arabs.
