Ye The Children of God...
Some recent events disturbed me. I was a bit shocked to
know that the media and some Indian Secular Intellectuals(ISI) failed to
understand the Sanatan Dharma. Besides even those whom I admired a lot also
fell flat. The newsrooms were full of so called ‘Ghar Wapsi’ events with anchors
bashing on Dharm Jagaran Manch and Vishwa Hindu Parishad to an extent to call
them ‘Saffron Terrorists’. And none objected to it; sadly. Some great authors
whom young India looks upon as inspiration went on to an extent to compare VHP
and RSS with ISIS and Al Qaeda and other terrorist groups. It hurt the
sentiments; but there were no angry protests as such from Hindu Community against
so called Intellectuals. Then came the ‘‘P.K” storm which yet again paved a way
for Main stream media to criticise Hindutva and its philosophy (which sadly
they never understood). Some Indian Secular Intellectuals also were seen
ridiculing the Indian Premiere for saying that at Vedic times, Plastic Surgery
was possible and Veda’s are a source of today’s science.
I was reading and listening to all this at home and asking
myself if We are really the same Indians whom West admired and owed a lot to?
This too said by the West itself that they owe a lot to India. I m not making
false claims. Let us have a look:
Julius Oppenhimer, Father
of Atomic Bomb said,’’What we shall find in Modern
Physics is an exemplification, an encouragement and a refinement of the old
Hindu wisdom.
Brian David Josephson, Physicist and a Noble Laureate said, " The Vedanta and
the Sankhya hold the key to the laws of mind and thought process which are
co-related to the Quantum Field i,e. The Operation and Distribution of
particles at atomic and molecular levels.’’
Albert Einstein, renowned scientist
said, "We owe a lot to Indians, who taught us how to count, without which no
worthwhile scientific discovery could have been made."
Dr. Lin Yutang, Chinese
Scholar said, "India was China’s teacher in religion and imaginative
literature; and World’s teacher in Trigonometry, Quadratic Equations, Grammar,
Phonetics, Arabian Nights, Animal Fables, Chess as well as philosophy and that
She inspired Boccaccio, Goethe, Herder, Schopenhauer,Emerson, and probably also
old Aesop."
Erwin Schroedinger ,
Physicist and a Noble Laureate said, "In all world there is no kind of framework
within which we can find consciousness in the plural, this is simply something
we construct because of temporal plurality of individuals but it is a false
construction.The only solution to this conflict in so far as any is available to
us at all lies in the ancient wisdom of the Upanishads.’"
What else do I need to prove? All the
theories these scientist proved were somewhere or the other once related to or
had deep roots in the Vedanta and Upanishads. But today instead of learning
what our ancestors left for us; we are fighting over who’s more secular or who’s
communal!! No one would have thought that the same Indians would go down to
disrespect their own writings, culture and traditions.
Many Seculars
actually allege even today that whatever Veda’s and Purana’s say is a Myth! Irony! The Indians who were the makers of Veda’s
and Purana’s today say that whatever it contains is false, imagery and
illusionary. And then when an eminent scientist makes a breakthrough research
and gets the Noble Prize; we then start questioning ourselves as to what are we
doing today when West is busy making discoveries. India, Go back to Upanishads
and I bet you’ll be at forefront. Mathematics, Physics, Biology, Nuclear
Science, Literature, Logics, Political Science, Economics, Warfare,
Spirituality and what not ....... Everything is there but alas! We always hid
behind this Secular and Communal debate . Amazingly even after debating this
till today; India has never been able to understand even this theory of
Secularism. This will continue till we
get rid of this notion that Hinduism is a religion opposed to all the rest in
the world!
The problem India faces
today is the lack of self respect and confidence with which She can shout out
loud that it is India who taught Science to the World. Even when as I write
this no doubt some would say, I am a perfect Communal piece who doesn’t know
the bitter truth that India is a poor nation with no good sanitation facility
and illiterate poor people lying on ground and full of insanitary conditions
with diseases and malnutrition at all time high etc etc etc ...... Still I say,
accepted that India today remains a developing nation with Her farmers committing
suicide but cannot ignore that the political establishment totally failed the
citizen of this country and kept debating on secularism to garner votes not
paying heed to what India needed. The tax payers money was used to fill up the
pockets of dynasties and political class not even thinking for what they once
were elected. The trend continues hopefully with some changes made and some to
come.........
When any Government tried to
do anything good; the so called opposition always tried their best to stop them
from doing so instead of asking the Government why what and how of it.... The main rivals parties always did it. This
time it was overboard.
What is so debatable of this ‘Ghar Wapsi’ program? Some
Hindus who were forcefully converted to another religion when come to know of
the fact that they were duped now wilfully wish to reconvert back to their
religion what is the problem? This is exactly as when a fish is out of the pond
left to die, you say its sad and do nothing but when someone helps her get back
into the pond you harp on that person because it violates the Constitution! How
come is helping fish get back into the pond without any force against
Constitution? So according to same logic when fish is left to die outside the
pond, it is well suited and is according to the Constitutional framework &
when someone as per the wish of that little creature helps it to get back to
her home giving her a lifeline is against the Highest Law of the Land.......This
can be termed as Secular Hypocrisy
The Indian Secular Intellectuals (ISI) shall never focus
on how Hindus are duped and forcefully converted to Islam or Christianity. Will
they ever take on these missionaries? No. It needs spine which is vulnerable in
this case. Sanatan Dharma never teaches to be Inhuman instead the Vedic Dharma
is the epitome of Humanity...... Alas, we have forgotten this........
In Bhagvad Geeta , The Lord Himself asks Arjuna to kill
his own family as they are inhumane and not good for the society while Arjuna
is confused as to how can he destroy his own family......... At that time, Lord
says, Fight and finish them not because they are your family or they did bad to
you but because they need to be eliminated for the good of the society. Fight
for that which is Right, for that which is Righteous and not for that which is
unholy. The unholy needs to be decimated and finished off from our own minds
and thoughts. Stop being what Macaulay wished and be that which Lord
wished........... Stop being Arjuna; Try to find out Lord hidden in yourself,
wake up with wide eyes and see the only goal of Rising High as our ancestors
would have wished us to be.......... Get back to the Veda’s, Vedanta and
Upanishads not because they are Hindu but because they secular, scientific and
more Indian, tried and tested, without giving in to all those who play down
you......... Wake Up India! This is your Time.
Great post, Rucha, here is my thought, Hindus r in a position where we cant Win, Too Many enemy living Among us, i think only option is to Remove secularism, Bring in Hindu raj, throw All illegals to There Own Countries, then Take incharge of Our country, Remove Cast, Only Hindu all Hindus Under one Religion Sanatana Dharma.
