Guest guest Posted October 2, 2002 Report Share Posted October 2, 2002 Namaskar Mitra, Hindu bashing seems to have become the favourite pass time in India. A Hindu just cannot do anything right. It has been happening English style for long perhaps since 1830-1840's. Amongst modern India's greatest patriots & philosopher Swami Vivekananda had to suffer similiarly. Here is a letter by him published in the Chicago Daily Tribune of 20 September 1893. " We who come from the East have sat here on the platform day after day and have been told in a patronizing way that we ought to accept Christianity because Christian nations are the most prosperous. We look at history and see that the prosperity of Christian Europe began with Spain. Spain’s prosperity began with the invasion of Mexico. Christianity wins its prosperity by cutting the throats of its fellowmen. At such a price Hindus will not have prosperity. I have sat here today and I have heard the height of intolerance. I have heard the creeds of the Muslims applauded, when today the Muslim sword is carrying the destruction into India. Blood and sword are not for the Hindu, whose religion is based on the laws of love". Mind yu Swamiji said this before the Moplah Rebellion in Kerala, 1920-21, Direct Action of 1946, Partition riots of 1947, Jammu & Kashmir ongoing massacres, Babri riots of 1992 or Godhra / Akshadham of 2002. Has anything changed? When will people in India learn to call a spade a spade? Cheers & om sanjeev Discover your Indian Roots at - http://www.esamskriti.comLong Live Sanathan / Kshatriya Dharam.
