    • Britain’s first Indian-origin judge - a man known for his outspoken and uncompromising views - was Thursday named for the country’s topmost honour.

      Judge Mota Singh, who once shredded the US-led war on terror in an address at the US embassy in London, was named for a knighthood in the British Queen’s New Year’s Honours List.

    • Singh hit the headlines in 1967 when he appeared in a British court as a turban-wearing barrister. In 1982, upon becoming Britain’s first Asian judge, he again insisted on wearing his turban rather than the traditional judge’s wig to court.

    Cheryl Balwani
    • BORN into a Catholic family, Cheryl Balwani was always concerned from the time she was a child about where she would spend her eternity. As she grew up and met people from different faiths, she started questioning the authenticity of the Bible and wondered how God could send ‘nice people’ to hell just because they didn’t believe in Jesus Christ and acknowledge Him to be the only living God. She started exploring various religions besides occultism and astrology only to realize they were all wrong paths. She realized no matter how many good deeds one does, every person has a sinful nature inherent in him which cannot be cleansed by mere religion, rituals, prayer, meditation, yoga or doing more good deeds. When she realized only Jesus can save a person, if he chooses Him as his personal Lord and Saviour and obeys His word, she became a born-again Christian eight years ago. Cheryl has recently released a delightful collection of seven Gospel songs titled ‘The Right Path’. The album targets both non-believers and believers in their quest to find meaning in their lives. THE CHRISTIAN MESSENGER met Cheryl Balwani, the upcoming Gospel singer, at her Mumbai residence recently. Excerpts from the interview:

    • You come from a Roman Catholic family. How did your family and the Catholic church react when you became a born-again Christian?

      When I became a born-again Christian, I was already married to my husband who is a Sindhi Hindu. Before my marriage my parents were concerned that I would lose touch with my religion as I was getting married to a non-Christian. I became a born-again Christian a few years after I got married.

    • Your husband is Hindu. What did he have to say about your CD? How is your son growing up with the Lord?

      My husband and I went through a rough patch after I became a Christian. I’ve made many lifestyle changes since then. We have had a lot of fights and quarrels over religion. Earlier, I would go with him to the temple and bow down to idols and do puja at home. When I stopped doing that, initially it was a major issue with him.

      He has known me for a long time and I guess it was natural for him to behave in that way. Now, he doesn’t mind in letting me be a Christian as long as I don’t talk to him about it. My husband heard a few songs from the CD and didn’t say anything. I am praying for my husband to know God just as I do, so that he too can be saved.

      My son is just four. I encourage him to pray and talk to God all the time. I am building him up with the Lord. I take him to church on Sundays sometimes. I never force him to go to church if he is unwilling, maybe asleep or busy playing.

    • Kolkata
    • Here’s bad news for couples in West Bengal planning a quick marriage at the registrar’s office without telling their parents.

    • The law and justice department will amend the West Bengal Special Marriage Act and West Bengal Hindu Marriage Act and make it mandatory that couples’ parents or legal guardians be informed before the marriages are solemnised. However, lovers need not panic even if their parents object because they are not bound to obey them.

      Soon, couples will have to submit their recent photographs as well as documents verifying residential address, names and other details of parents or legal guardians. The marriage certificate will also carry scanned photographs of the couple.

    • Though law minister R Moitra said the initiative is meant to stop people from using forged documents, officials said it was aimed at stopping repeats of the Rizwanur Rahman-Priyanka Todi episode. “Rizwanur and Priyanka got married without the knowledge of the Todis. Had Priyanka’s father known about it, the matter could have taken a different turn,” the official said.

    • Muslims had made their intentions abundantly clear from as early as 1905 when Bengal was partitioned, that they were working to return Islamic rule over India; failing which they were ready to use violence to create an Islamic state from the body of the Hindu nation. As demonstrated in the writer’s book Eclipse of the Hindu Nation, Gandhi’s INC set political freedom as its goal only in 1942. Even after 1942, Gandhi’s INC wanted political freedom only from British rule; rather than mobilizing the Hindus against Muslim intention to vivisect the nation, Gandhi’s bizarre sense of nationhood and his criminal unilateralism in deciding the fate of the Hindu nation drove him to consent to the return of Muslim rule over India if that would avert partition.
    • -         The greatest coercion is British coercion. And the Congress is impatient to get out of that coercion. My hope in desiring a Constituent Assembly is that whether the Muslims are represented by the Muslim League mentality or any other, the representatives when they are face to face with the reality will not think of cutting up India according to religions but will regard India as an indivisible whole and discover a national, i.e. Indian solution of even specially Muslim questions. But if the hope is frustrated, the Congress cannot forcibly resist the express will of the Muslims of India. Needless to say the Congress can never seek the assistance of British forces to resist the vivisection. It is the Muslims who will impose their will by force singly or with British assistance on an unresisting India. If I can carry the Congress with me, I would not put the Muslims to the trouble of using force. I would be ruled by them for it would still be Indian rule. In other words, the Congress will have only a non-violent approach to every question and difficulty arising. (March 17, 1940, CWMG Vol. 78, page 66) 
    • Sheikh Abdullah began to utilize the critical years after 1942 to realize his own manic ambitions. Sheikh Abdullah was another Jinnah already in the making, but typically, neither Gandhi nor Nehru or even Patel read the danger signals emanating from J&K in 1946. “Even as the INC was in the midst of the make or break negotiations with the Cabinet Delegation, trouble erupted in Jammu and Kashmir. Sheikh Abdullah, a commoner from the Valley saw a great opportunity in the generally troubled times, to realize his own towering Muslim ambitions in the turbulent years preceding 1947. Playing out the drama for civil liberties and ‘freedom’ that the INC had staged in Rajkot, Jaipur and other Hindu kingdoms, Sheikh Abdullah launched in May 1946, the ‘Quit Kashmir’ campaign. Abdullah was promptly arrested and incarcerated. Nehru, playing the Great Democrat to the hilt, attempted to enter Kashmir and was also speedily detained by Ramachandra Kak, the Prime Minister of Jammu and Kashmir. Gandhi jumped into the fray and in a passionate letter to Jawaharlal Nehru, pleaded with Nehru to return to Delhi with the promise that the Congress would make Nehru’s cause in Kashmir its own cause, and Nehru’s honour, its honour. The draft reply, drafted by Gandhi contained the ill-concealed threat to the Maharaja of Jammu and Kashmir that Nehru would return to retrieve his honour and fulfill his mission, a threat which however does not find mention in the official Congress Resolution.
    • Gandhi’s unilateralism gifted Nehru with J&K on a platter to do with it as he pleased.

    • The imperial government in London allowed the INC to be led first by white British citizens, and thereafter only by non-Hindus like non-ideologues or notional Hindus like Dadabhai Naoroji, Surendranath Banerjea, G K Gokhale, M K Gandhi and finally Jawaharlal Nehru, who piloted the INC till 1947 when colonial rule was brought to an end on terms determined by the Muslim League and the British Empire. The festering, gangrene-infected sore that is J&K today is a Gandhi-Nehru legacy.
    • When World War II had drained London’s coffers and when Subhash Bose’s INA threatened to overrun India, and when the INA shamed Indian armed forces in the Royal Indian Navy and British Indian Army to revolt, the imperial government in London sent the Cabinet Mission to India in May 1946 to work out the modalities for transfer of power.
    • If Gandhi and Nehru had understood Mountbatten’s role in Indonesia and had they been outraged enough at Mountbatten’s desecration of the war memorial in Singapore for Bose and the fallen soldiers of the INA, they would not have welcomed him as wholesomely as they had; nor would Gandhi have asked him to play umpire (that was Gandhi’s prescription exactly) between the INC and the Muslim League; in effect, Gandhi asked Mountbatten to play umpire between him and Jinnah. It is pertinent at this juncture to recollect that Gandhi had also welcomed the Cabinet Mission proposals as “the best document in the circumstances” while refusing to even consider the Sapru Committee report which had drafted the broad contours and contents of the future constitution of independent India.

    • Gandhi was the sole interlocutor with the British government in the negotiations, while Sardar Patel and other Congress luminaries merely stood grimly on the side-lines; thus only Gandhi could have rejected the document had he wanted to. Instead he welcomed it within four days after the document was presented to the INC and the Muslim League, without reading the fine print.

       

      The INC, after Gandhi’s endorsement, never summed up the will to reject the proposals and went along with the Cabinet Mission document (henceforth referred to as Mission document), carrying the Hindu nation inexorably towards vivisection.

    • The Mission document concealed the time bomb of vivisection and Pakistan in the cleverly worded offer for maximum autonomy for the Muslim majority provinces “approximating to but not quite” Jinnah’s demand for a separate Muslim state.

    • Nehru with the full backing of Gandhi was meddling in the affairs of J&K. With no thought to the grave danger and the imminent instability that he was causing to the shape of the emerging post-independence India, Nehru convened the State People’s Conference in the first week of June 1947. Nehru convened this conference of the people of the princely states, thus pitting the people against their rulers at a time when the support of the Hindu rulers would have been critical for the shape of the emerging independent India.

       

      Unmindful of the consequences of antagonizing the rulers and encouraging a peoples’ uprising in the princely states against the rulers, particularly in J&K where the so-called peoples’ movement was only a Sunni Muslim movement led by Sheikh Abdullah and his All Jammu and Kashmir Muslim Conference (later National Conference) against the Hindu king, Nehru declared, on June 8, 1947, “Sovereignty must reside in the people and not in any individual. The State people’s claim to represent for themselves is justified and will see to it that they are heard. And certainly their rulers cannot speak for them,” before the delegates of the State People's Conference.

    • Gandhi and Gandhi’s INC remained mute spectators as Nehru kept J&K out of Patel’s jurisdiction and insisted on handling the affairs of J&K single-handedly. The result of this unchallenged claim to J&K as Nehru’s personal domain to do with it as he pleased created the bloated parasite called J&K which is living off the blood it continues to suck from the body of the Indian Union.
    • This writer has noted with alarm the penetration of foreign women in the lives of very important Hindu leaders in the twentieth century – Vivekananda, Aurobindo, Gandhi, Nehru, Bose, Farooq Abdullah and finally Rajeev Gandhi. Sheikh Abdullah married the lady who was earlier married to Lawrence of Arabia! Hindu nationalists must begin to look at this phenomenon fearlessly. If Kashmiri Hindus fail even now to render their history from the perspective of the Hindu Nation, then Maharaja Hari Singh and Ramchandra Kak will remain history’s villains, instead of Mountbatten, Nehru and Sheikh Abdullah.

Before leaving the temple, the miscreants even tied the throat of the stone made murthi of the Goddess with a thick rope. The vagina of the idol was blackened. Keeping in view to the nature of the crime and mixed population of the area, one can easily understand that no Hindu can do such a heinous and sacrireligious deed. The finger of suspicion is definitely pointed to the Muslim community.

    •  By Stephen Knapp
    •             On the spiritual path those who are the most inclined to lead a peaceful existence that respects the value of all life often adopt the vegetarian lifestyle. For some people this is a very big step. This is in accordance with the yogic principle of ahimsa, which is to observe nonviolence and abstain from injuring any being in any way. However, many people ask what about the plants that are killed in the process of cooking vegetarian foods. Don’t they suffer? And don’t we get reactions for that?
    • If we merely cook for ourselves, we become implicated in karma or the reactions if we cause the harm of any living being, even plants. The vegetarian lifestyle surely causes less karma than the unnecessary slaughtering of innocent animals. However, the system of first offering food to the Lord and then taking prasadam becomes the perfect yoga diet and frees us from such karma.

Draupadi: The Heroic Princess of the Mahabharat, by Aparna Garg | Tattva

  • Draupadi: The Heroic Princess of the Mahabharat, by Aparna Garg | Tattva

    tags: no_tag

    • A personification of shakti (strength) and bhakti (devotion), Draupadi was one of the bravest and strongest characters in the Mahabharat. Despite being both born and wed into powerful royal families, Draupadi went through countless hardships. She nevertheless emerged victorious and will always be remembered as a valiant woman who stood for the protection of Dharma.
    • A Source of Inspiration for the Pandavas

    • In her resolve to protect Dharma, Draupadi kept the Pandavas motivated and inspired to fight. She vowed to keep her hair unkempt (which was considered undignified at that time) until she had washed her hair with Dushasan’s blood. This was a constantly reminder to the Pandavas to defeat those who had wronged her. She kept her vow and tied up her hair only after Bheem had killed Dushasan.

      During their years in exile, there were several times when the Pandavas lost their motivation to fight for Dharma, particularly Yuddhishtir. During these times, Draupadi recounted the horrendous acts committed by the Kauravas and reminded them of their duty. Throughout the thirteen years of exile, Draupadi did not let her husbands forget how she was dishonored and how they were deceitfully deprived of their kingdom.

    •  
    • Sought Revenge, but not for Herself
    • Draupadi is sometimes criticized for being too self-centered in terms of her desire for revenge. However, a closer look at her actions shows that this is not the case. She did not encourage the war because she was trying to carry out her own personal vendetta against the Kauravas; rather, she knew that the Kauravas had to be defeated for the protection of Dharma. Evil acts were flourishing under the Adharmic rule of the Kauravas. When even the queen could not find safety in her kingdom, how could any ordinary citizen hope for protection? Duryodhana was a menace to society, and it was for this reason that Draupadi, Krishna, and others sought war. As a counterexample to this, after the war, when Ashwatthama cowardly killed Draupadi’s five sons in their sleep, Draupadi did not allow the Pandavas to kill Ashwatthama. She argued that in this case, killing Ashwatthama would not be for any greater cause but simply for personal revenge.
    • Draupadi also demonstrated her selflessness after the dice game. Furious at all those who silently watched as she suffered, Draupadi was ready to curse everyone in the court. She exercised self-control at the request of Queen Gandhari; at this point Dhritirashtra, fearful of Draupadi’s power to curse him, finally spoke up. He offered her as many wishes as she wanted, but she asked only for her husbands’ freedom and for their weapons. She said that if she asked for anything more, she would consider it greedy. With their freedom, the Pandavas would be able to get back all they needed by their own karma.
    • Because of her virtuous nature, Draupadi is considered one of the panchakanya, a group of five women who are especially venerated in the Hindu tradition. The other four are: Kunti, the mother of the Pandavas and an accomplished scholar of the Atharva Veda; Tara, the wife of Vali who was instrumental in reconciling Rama with Sugreev; Ahalya, Sage Gautam’s wife who was given a blessing of purity from Shri Ram; and Mandodari, the virtuous wife of Ravan who had the courage to speak out against her husband when he abducted Sita. Simply remembering these virtuous women destroys great sins.

He entered into a sham marriage — “dishonestly and fraudulently went through the marriage ceremony fully knowing that it was not a lawful marriage”. “The first counter petitioner, knowing fully well that the marriage is not lawful, caused me to cohabit with him leading me to believe that he was lawfully married to me,” Sharmila added in her complaint on September 7, 2009.

    • राजसमंद जिले में समुदाय विशेष के युवकों द्वारा कथित रूप से एक बाड़े में आग लगाकर गोवंश को जिंदा जला देने की लौमहर्षक घटना के बाद उपजा तनाव मंगलवार को भी जारी रहा। धारा-144 लागू होने के बावजूद घटना से आक्रोशित लोगों का रोष रहा और कई जगह बाजार बंद करवाए जाने के बाद हालात बेहद तनावपूर्ण रहे। यहां ताजिए ठंडे नहीं होने से भी स्थिति बेहद नाजुक बनी हुई है।

      उधर भीलवाड़ा में भी सांगानेर कस्बे में दो समुदायों के बीच लाठी भाटा जंग के बाद पुलिस चौकी पर रखे गए ताजिए भारी सुरक्षा के बीच उठाए। वहीं, देर रात पाली जिले के बाली कस्बे में समुदाय विशेष के युवकों द्वारा पूर्व विधायक के परिजनों के साथ ही गई मारपीट के विरोध में मंगलवार को हिंदू संगठनों के आह्वान पर बाली बंद रखा गया है।

Vijayvaani.com - Jammu & Kashmir tests Hindu resolve

  • Vijayvaani.com

    • Jammu & Kashmir tests Hindu resolve – 3
    • Radha Rajan
    • Gandhi parroted ‘Ramanama’ as the palliative for all ills, including malaria, even while he rejected the historicity of Srirama.
    • When Gandhi rejected the historicity of Srirama and the Mahabharata, he in fact rejected the Hindu nation, its nationhood and the exhilarating tradition of rajadharma. The Ramayana and Mahabharata constitute the best in the history of the Hindu nation, because they emphasize that the ultimate duty of the King is to protect the Hindu nation by enforcing dharma as the ordering principle of life. Hindu dharma or Hinduism and the Hindu nation are therefore an indivisible whole. When they have been torn apart from each other, the Hindu nation has lost territory.
    • Nation is both territory and people, said Kautilya; it follows therefore that the king or the state must protect not only the nation’s frontiers to safeguard the territory from external aggressors, but also ensure that the people inhabiting the nation do not pose a threat to its territory or to its nationhood. The Hindu nation is paying the price of Gandhi’s description of this nation when he declared that this nation belonged equally to Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Parsees and Beni-Israelis; and Nehru’s megalomania which made J&K his private dunghill. When and if the religious tenets of Muslims and Christians, Sikhs, Parsees and Beni-Israelis pose a threat to the territory and nationhood of the Hindu nation, it behooves the king or the state to annihilate the threat.

    • Kautilya’s definition of nation as being both territory and the people of that territory is the most accurate and concise so far. The Abrahamic religions spread their tentacles across the globe conquering continent after continent not only by conquering territory by the sword, but also by converting non-Abrahamic peoples to their faiths, also by the sword. They posed a threat to the nation not only by threatening the territory, but also the nationhood by de-rooting the people from their civilisational, dharmic roots.

       

      This is how Hindu Kashmir became Muslim-majority Kashmir; the change to the religious demography was effected not only when Kashmir’s rulers became Muslim through the agency of Muslim queens and concubines, but also by the Sufi cancer.

    • The challenge posed to the Hindu nation in Kashmir is the state’s Muslim population. If Hindu leaders would only pay heed to Kautilya, they will know that at the core of resolving the problem of J&K is to dilute its Muslim identity. If the leaders will summon the will to move in this direction, the road to our objective will reveal itself.

    • Why were the people of J&K more special than the people of the other princely states? And how is Raj Thackeray’s ‘Marathi Manoos’ exclusivism any different from the Hurriyat and other jihadi claims of Kashmir is for Kashmiris only?

       

      Gandhi and Nehru both subscribed to the idea that this was not a Hindu nation; therefore they made common cause with Sheikh Abdullah even after he had issued the ‘Quit Kashmir’ call to the Hindu king. Gandhi and Nehru made common cause with the Muslims of the kingdom against their Hindu ruler. It is not surprising that the Congress cannot and will not set down the coffin of the political legacy of Muslim separatism in J&K bequeathed to them by Gandhi and Nehru; but the Hindu nation is not obliged to carry this coffin.

    • Savarkar’s exposition on who had the right to claim the Hindu nation as his own is brilliant for its clarity. In his Presidential address at the 19th session of the Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Mahasabha in Karnavati (Ahmedabad) in 1937, Savarkar stated in words of one syllable that only they, for whom this bhumi is both punyabhumi and pitrubhumi, can claim the Hindu nation to be their own. Pitrubhumi must be translated as land of our forefathers and ancestors.
    • If the Hindu nation is not carrion for Islam and the Church, then Hindus must steel themselves to reclaim the Hindu nation in Kashmir, not only for the Hindus of the valley, but also for the Hindus of the Hindu nation. We have to do what we have to do.

* VivekaJyoti *: "Terrorists have no religion" -- Shah Rukh Khan is not telling the truth

  • * VivekaJyoti *: "Terrorists have no religion" -- Shah Rukh Khan is not telling the truth

    tags: no_tag

    • From: Narain Kataria, New York
    • At a public meeting held on Nov. 29, 2009, Actor Shah Rukh Khan is reported to have said that: “Terrorism has no religion”. This is grossly misleading and nonsensical twaddle by a crafty actor to lull Hindus into believing that Islam has nothing to do with terrorism. It has not a whit to do with reality. It is completely out of sync with the general view held by millions of Hindus, Sikhs and Buddhists who have suffered unprecedented brutalities and savagery at the hands of Radical Islamists for the last 1400 years.
    • Hindus have been terrorized into submission by Islamists to such an extent that they never stand up and come out openly to speak the truth. The truth is that more than 90% terrorism-related activities all over the world are carried on by Radical Islamists. Almost all the prisoners in jails in UK and USA on the charge of terrorism are Muslims. “Islamic terrorists have carried on 14,510 terrorists attack since 9/11” (a rate of about three to four a day). (www.The Religion of Peace.org) These attacks were not carried on by normal Muslims for money or personal jealousy but as a religious duty performed in the name of Allah.

    • The Bollywood Star further said that he has read the Quran. But he did not tell the ignorant audience that “sixty-one percent of the contents of the Koran are found to speak ill of unbelievers or call for their violent conquest; at best only 2.6 percent of the verses of the Koran are noted to show goodwill toward humanity”. (Dr. Moorthy Muthuswamy, an India-born anti-terrorism expert, in an interview with Jamie Glazov of Frontpage Magazine at http://frontpagemag.com/2009/12/14/the-yemeni-koran-by-jamie-glazov/. [More details about Dr. Muthuswamy's book, including its relevance to the ongoing jihad in India and where to buy the book are given here:

      http://www.moorthymuthuswamy.com/.]

    • Ostensibly, Shah Rukh was following the Islamic law of al Taqiyah which enjoins on Muslims to lie and cheat in the furtherance of Islam. Shah Rukh fully exploited the non-comprehension of media and ignorance of the non-Muslim audience about the tenets of Islam.

Fighting Secular Tyranny Against Hindus | Babu Suseelan

  •  Babu Suseelan

    tags: no_tag

    • Written by Dr. Babu Suseelan   

    • Today, Hindus are faced with acute problems, and Hindus have no political power to influence corrupt secular politicians looting our country, stealing our temple wealth, destroying our culture and diverting Hindu tax money for Hajj subsidy, Mosque construction, Mullah Pension, missionary training, and lavish luxury lifestyle for the elected corrupt secular politicians.  If Hindus had to survive, Hindus must restore that vital relation between our spirituality, culture and politics. Hindus need to develop the skill and audacity for confronting pseudo secularists, develop some worthwhile interests and work hard to promote it. "What is the best of all things that are praised?": "SKILL". (The Mahabharata)

      Hindus should not elect secular politicians unwilling to challenge coercive religious conversion, jihadi terrorism, cultural pollution and corruption.  Hindus and religious organizations must break their thick wall of denial and fight vigorously against bogus secular politicians seeking to serve their own self interests by serving our enemies. Mayavadis who preach Ekam Sad Viprah Bahudha Vadanti" should be confronted with reality. Their weakness begins to unravel when one asks "why don't you go to Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Iran, Bangladesh, Syria or Kashmir to preach your philosophy? Their diatribes are nothing but expressions of their subjective preferences.

    • Our society is full of moral cowards, and secular politicians paralyzed by the loss of moral standards and goals. Hindus must take the initiative to assume the responsibility of asserting rational Hindu values. No matter how hard the struggle, Hindus must act. If not now, when?

Chemical Weapons: India's Forgotten Armaments - Windows Live

  • Chemical Weapons: India's Forgotten Armaments - Windows Live

    tags: no_tag

    • India’s chemical-weapons record holds key lessons
    • Brahma Chellaney

    • Rather than first eliminate its puny, militarily insignificant CW stocks before becoming party to the CWC, India’s penchant to take the moral high ground, whatever the price, found expression in its ratifying the treaty ahead of its regional adversaries, and then rushing to meet the pact’s 10-year deadline for stockpile destruction. It incinerated most of its CWs by the 2007 deadline, even as the other possessor states had set protracted timeframes for stockpile destruction. While the US and Russia sought and got five-year deadline extensions in 2007, India asked for only two years’ more time, fully completing its dismantlement in March 2009. Meeting deadlines took precedence over guaranteeing environmentally safe and sound destruction, with secrecy the leitmotif even in dismantlement. The government’s fiat to the DRDO was to meet the deadlines, come what may.

       

      But India hasn’t earned international respect from such faithful, speedy compliance. Indeed, like in the nuclear realm, India has been left to blow its own trumpet about its “impeccable” credentials. Far from gaining any reward, India has little clout in The Hague-based Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), where no Indian has yet held a top-management position. Worse still, Indian taxpayers have had to pick up the tab for international verification of stockpile destruction, with the obliteration bill surpassing the CW production expenses several fold. Pakistan and China, by contrast, have come out better.

    tags: no_tag

    • धर्म से क्या नहीं प्राप्त हो सकता? महाभारत के स्वर्गारोहण पर्व में महर्षि वेद व्यास  जी ने बडे जोरदार शब्दों में अपनी अन्तर्पुकार समाज के हित में कही है। वे कहते हैं कि " मैं दोनों हाथ ऊपर उठा कर पुकार-पुकार कर कह रहा हूं,परन्तु मेरी बात कोई नहीं सुन रहा कि धर्म से केवल मोक्ष ही नहीं अपितु अर्थ और काम की भी प्राप्ति होती है। फिर भी लोग उसे ग्रहण क्यों नहीं करते ?
      न जातु कामान्न भयान्न लोभाद ।
      धर्म त्यजेज्जिवितस्यापि हेतो:
      नित्यो धर्म: सुख दुखे स्वनित्ये
      जीवो नित्यो हेतुरस्य त्वनित्य: ।।
      अर्थात कामना से,भय से,लोभ से अथवा जीवन के लिए भी धर्म का त्याग न करें। धर्म ही एक नित्य है,सुख दुख तो अनित्य है। इसके अतिरिक्त जो व्यक्ति धर्म का पालन करता है तो धर्म ही उसकी रक्षा करता है तथा नष्ट हुआ धर्म ही उसके पतन का कारण बनता है। अतैव जीवन में सदैव धर्म का पालन करना चाहिए।

    • बीजेपी को चुनाव जिताने का ठेका लेकर गड़करी भी नहीं आए। उनने साफ कहा- ‘पार्टी को आम चुनाव के लिए नहीं। अगली सदी के लिए तैयार करना चाहता हूं। सत्ता प्राथमिकता नहीं। प्राथमिकता है गरीब और विकास। बेरोजगारों को रोजगार। जहां सत्ता है, वहां गुड गवर्नेंस हो।’ गड़करी ने ऐसे बात की। जैसे वह राजनीतिक दल के अध्यक्ष नहीं। किसी एनजीओ के अध्यक्ष बने हों। उनने यह मानने में परहेज भी नहीं किया- ‘मैं एनजीओ की तरह काम करता हूं।’ पहला काम आज वाजपेयी के जन्मदिन पर रक्तदान का करेंगे। अपन को सोनिया गांधी का वह वक्त याद आया। जब वह अध्यक्ष बनी थी। तो एनजीओ की तरह पार्टी चला रही थी। रक्तदान शिविर भी खूब लगवाए थे सोनिया ने। आम आदमी की बात करके पार्टी को सत्ता के शिखर पर ले गई।
    • उनने कहा- ‘देश सबका, सब देश के।’ सकारात्मक राजनीति के सबूत भी दिए उनने। बोले- विरोध के लिए विरोध की राजनीति नहीं करेगी बीजेपी। सरकार आतंकवाद-नक्सलवाद और गरीबी से लड़ेगी।

St. Thomas in India: Thiruvalluvar ‘baptised’ to betray Hindus – B.R. Haran « Bharata Bharati

  • St. Thomas in India:

    tags: no_tag

    • As brilliantly shown in the article St. Thomas in India: An IAS officer revisits a 400-year-old history hoax by V. Sundaram for the last four days, many attempts have been made at regular intervals to impose the concocted history of Thomas on the people, thereby removing the facts from their minds, about the persecution of Hindus and destroying of Hindu temples by the Christian invaders (Portuguese, French, and British) from the fifteenth century onwards.
    • It would be appropriate to conclude with the sensible and courageous words of Dr. Subramanian Swamy, “The church will have to go, and the Kapaleeshwara Temple re-built on that site. Hindus will do it with the help of sane and civilised Christians if possible, without them if necessary, and despite them if forced. When 83 percent Hindus unite, let those who are seeking to debase Hindu icons by bogus history realise that a religious tsunami will wash them away.”

भारतीय नागरिक - Indian Citizen: कसाब को छोड़ दिया जाना ही उचित है.

  • भारतीय नागरिक - Indian Citizen

    • कारण नम्बर एक - शुक्ला जी के नजरिये से भी एकदम उचित है, वही क्रिकेट वाले शुक्ला जी जिन्होंने कुछ दिन पहले ही कहा था कि कुछ करोड़ रुपये की घूसखोरी के आरोपों के चलते एक विदेशी मेहमान को कितनी दिक्कत उठानी पड़ी और इस छोटी सी हकीर रकम के आरोपों की जांच के लिये सैकड़ों करोड़ बर्बाद करना कहां तक ठीक है. इसलिये कसाब के ऊपर करोड़ों खर्चना कहां तक उचित है जबकि एक गोली की कीमत मात्र चालीस या पचास रुपये, राइफल की कीमत साठ-सत्तर हजार रुपये और ग्रेनेड की कीमत दो-चार हजार रुपये, कुल मिलाकर आठ-दस लाख रुपये के खर्च के ऊपर इकतीस करोड़ रुपये का व्यय कहां तक उचित है?
    • कैसे पता चलता कि हम लोग धर्मनिरपेक्ष हैं, कैसे पता चलता कि हमारी गंगा-जमुनी संस्कृति की जड़ें मुम्बई से घुसकर दिल्ली में यमुना तक फैली हुई हैं. कैसे पता चलता कि इन छोटे-मोटे काण्डों से मुम्बई रुकती नहीं, चलती रहती है.
    • कैसे पता चलता कि एक नेता तो इतना बहादुर है कि गोलियों के बीच ताज में जाकर कुछ लोगों को बचा निकालने का माद्दा रखता है.
    • कारण नम्बर चार - आखिर इस सब का ही नतीजा है कि यह तो पता चल गया कि कुत्ते शहीदों के घर नहीं जाते.
    • कारण नम्बर पांच - इस सब से सुरक्षा एजेंसियों तथा गृह मन्त्रालय की मुस्तैदी भी पता चल गयी. खुफिया वालों ने गृह मन्त्रालय को सूचित कर दिया था कि हमले की आशंका है, गृह मन्त्रालय ने राज्य सरकार को और राज्य सरकार ने सुरक्षा एजेन्सियों को. सुरक्षा एजेन्सियों ने भी सुरक्षा चाक-चौबन्द कर दी, लेकिन इस का क्या किया जाये कि जहां की सुरक्षा व्यवस्था मजबूत की वहां इन्होंने एक भी गोली नहीं चलाई, एक भी ग्रेनेड नहीं फोड़ा.
    • कारण नम्बर आठ - अजमल कसाब को छोड़ने से साम्प्रदायिक सद्भाव में वृद्धि होगी. जो चला गया सो चला गया अब इसे सूली चढा़ने से उनके प्राण तो वापस नहीं आ जायेंगे. क्षमा बडेन को चाहिये का सिद्धान्त हम लोग भूलते जा रहे हैं. आखिर यह सब न होता तो कैसे हम चिल्लाते कि अंकल देखो पड़ोसी का बच्चा हमें मार रहा है. अंकल आप पड़ोसी को टाइट करो. कैसे दुनिया को पता चलता कि पड़ोसी का बच्चा हमें परेशान कर रहा है. कैसे हमारी सहनशीलता का पता दुनिया को चलता. कैसे हम इतनी सिम्पैथी का स्टाक कर पाते और कैसे हमारी सहनशीलता की परीक्षा हो पाती.

      कारण नम्बर नौ - यह व्यक्ति मन्त्री बनने के काबिल है. युवा है, धर्मनिरपेक्ष है, जुनूनी है. यदि वास्तव में उसने ही गोली चलाईं तो यह पूछकर नहीं चलाई कि भई बता तू हिन्दू है, नहीं पूछा न. ग्रेनेड फेंका तो क्या जाति पूछकर फेंका. इसके अन्दर एक लायक नेता होने के सारे गुण मौजूद हैं, यह सब सुनता-जानता है लेकिन एक चतुर नेता की तरह चुपचाप रहता है और एक चतुर नेता की तरह ही अपने रिकार्डेड बयान से पल्टी मार जाता है.

    • स्वयंभू योग गुरू बाबा रामदेव और कांग्रेस की नजर में देश के भावी प्रधानमंत्री राहुल गांधी के बीच एक घंटे से भी अधिक समय तक विचार विमर्श की जमकर चर्चा हो रही है। दरअसल अपनी विदेश यात्रा के पूर्व बाबा रामदेव ने कांग्रेस के युवराज राहुल गांधी से भेंट करने की इच्छा जताई तो राहुल के राजनैतिक मैनेजरों ने तत्काल इसकी स्वीकृति दे दी।

      राहुल और बाबा के बीच चर्चा का दौर आरंभ हुआ। पता नहीं कब साठ मिनिट से ज्यादा समय बीत गया, और दोनों को पता ही नहीं चला। राहुल गांधी के करीबी सूत्रों का कहना है कि राहुल बाबा यह जानना चाह रहे थे कि कहीं बाबा रामदेव के मन में उत्तराखण्ड से कांग्रेस के टिकिट पर चुनाव लडने के बलवती इच्छा तो हिलोरें नहीं मार रही है। बताते हैं कि राहुल ने इशारे ही इशारे में बाबा को यह पेशकश दे भी दी। चतुर सुजान बाबा रामदेव ने राहुल के इशारों को समझकर इस पेशकश को सिरे से खारिज करते हुए कहा कि वे फिलहाल राजनीति से दूर ही रहना चाह रहे हैं। उठते उठते बाबा के एक चेले ने बाबा के मन के मर्म को समझा ही दिया। शायद बाबा रामदेव पीछे के रास्ते अर्थात राज्य सभा के माध्यम से संसदीय सौंध तक पहुंचना चाह रहे हों।
