Sri Sri Ravi Shankar Confirms Lord Rama's Existence .

September 14, 2007

SRI : || Lord Rama's Existance. Dear Bhagavathas, Hare Krishna. Our Pranaams to all. We are deeply wounded to know that the Central Government of our Secular Country has filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court, in which it is said to have stated that there was no historical evidence to prove the existance of Lord Sri Ram. It is any ones guess to know to what extent our leaders in

power can stoop down to claim their SECULAR Character by wounding the sentiments of Hindus.It is a pity that in our country "Secularism" is firmly getting defined as "anti-Hinduism". There are always some miscreants who want to trouble in fished waters. As individuals, the common man of our Great Country, do not harbour wrong thoughts or hatred amoungs the different Religions. In fact the harmony with which all sections of our society has lived in the past is a matter of great pride. Once the divide & rule tactics of the political parties has been injected, with an eye on the ballot box, the very fine fabric of United National Outlook of the country has been torn to pieces, inflicting untold misery in the lives of common man who is already struggling for existence due to various factors

emenating from the complex life styles of Modern Time. While the constitution of The Country provides equality of all citizens, inequality in all walks of life has become the order of the day. The only reason for this unfortunate state of our country is the fact that the majority of the political parties, and hence the politicians , thrive well by dividing the people - by Religion, Race, Region, Language and so on. But one thing is certain. A day will dawn when the awakened people of this Great Country will drive away all divisive forces and make this place a heaven on earth - As The Lord Will Certainly Ensure Enforcement of Dharma at The Appropriate Time.

In a statement issued from Germany, Sri Sri said: "Ramayana and Mahabharata are called "Itihasas" (histories). Itihas means it happened. That Sri Ram did exist is recorded in the epic Ramayana. "The

ancient seers had made clear distinction between "Puranas" (classical literature) and Itihasas. Puranas are mythological, symbolic stories, while Itihasas are that which actually happened." The founder of the Art of Living Foundation said it would be wrong to assume Lord Ram was a mythological character and not real because there was no scientific evidence to prove his existence. "There were unproven miracles in the lives of religious figures of other faiths. If we dismiss Lord Ram as a fictitious character, then we have to dismiss all miracles in the lives of Jesus, Moses and Mohammed as myths," he said. In its affidavit to the Supreme Court on the Sethusamudram shipping channel, the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) said there were no "historical records" to prove the existence of Lord Ram or the Ram Setu (bridge). The affidavit has kicked off a major political controversy with the BJP pressurising the government to withdraw the

controversial affidavit from the apex court. The government later said it would file a fresh affidavit in the Supreme Court, omitting the reference to Lord Ram. The BJP and other right wing parties have been protesting the Rs.24 billion-canal project that would see a navigational route through India's west and east coasts, saying that it would damage the bridge that Hindus believe was build by Lord Ram millennia ago.
