Haindava Keralam - Be united and nobody will dare to touch you - Swamy to Hindus in Kerala

  • tags: no_tag

    • By S Chandrasekhar - Organiser
    • Addressing the meet, Dr. Subramaniam Swamy said the Devaswom Bill was violative of Article 25 of the Constitution which gives freedom to profess religion. He said, "The practise of only Hindu MLAs of Kerala, participating in the election of Temple Board members is absurd and legally inadmissible in a secular society. Moreover, participation of Communist MLAs, who are diehard atheists in the election is comic. This bill will be quashed by courts, even if passed by Assembly."

      He further said, "As per Article 31(a) of the Constitution, Government cannot takeover any religious institution for more than 3 years. It has to be given back to original owners or a committee of devotees! My case against takeover of temples is coming up for final verdict in Supreme Court in May. I am confident of a favourable verdict. It will a huge victory for Hindus of Bharat, as lakhs of temples all over India taken over by the government, since 1947., will have to be given back to Hindus."

      "Like in Ram Sethu issue, courts want to know the overall public mood. Strong protests have to be launched throughout Kerala. It is time for Hindus of Kerala who are hardly 52 per cent to be assertive and strong. A thousand goats, together, can take care of a single tiger. Be united and nobody will dare to touch you," he concluded.

Haindava Keralam - Indian woman held in Saudi Arabia for husband’s 'murder'

    • Indian woman held in Saudi Arabia for husband’s 'murder'
      Vinod Sharma, Hindustan Times
    • An Indian doctor in Saudi Arabia has been in solitary confinement with her infant child for nearly 18 days pending investigations into her husband’s suspected murder, after he allegedly converted to Islam.
       
      Traumatized by the ordeal of the young mother and her children, including a two-year-old daughter, the family is hoping against hope. Her husband, also a doctor in Najran, died on January 31. Suspicion that he was poisoned was raised a month later despite certification by a legal medical specialist under the health ministry that cause of death was “myocardial infarction” (heart attack). The spanner came while the family was preparing to leave for India with the body following clearance by the Indian Consulate General in Jeddah.
    • On March 1, the doctor was summoned to a local police station and told that her husband had embraced Islam before his death and for that reason she could not carry the body to India. A fortnight later, she was again made to report to the police and put in solitary confinement with her infant son, born to her on February 18.

      According to family members, she had no inkling of her husband having changed or planning to change his religion. He even now remains a Hindu in his travel papers and documents with his employer.
    • “We are doing everything possible to help. But even engaging a lawyer to represent the case in faraway Najran is an expensive and difficult proposition,” a senior MEA official told Hindustan Times.

Nityananda Paramahamsa should not resign. He should continue | Great Hindu

    • Even if he had it… there is nothing wrong.   Remember, if not for Parashara’s fall, we would not have had Veda Vyasa.  If not for Vishwamitra’s fall, we would have never had Gayatri mantra.

      It is the Yoga Brasthas who have contributed to the welfare of the world.  The perfect Yogis are absolutely useless.

      It is the fallen Yogis who contribute to the world’s welfare.  The perfect Yogis are meditating in the deep Himalayas — totally useless to the world atleast materially.

    • Hence we should support all those Yogis in the Hindu samaj with kindness.   Remember Lord Krishna’s words that Yoga Brasthas will always have another chance.
    • So all Yoga Brasthas of the world Unite.  You have nothing to lose except your own liberation.

महाजाल पर सुरेश चिपलूनकर (Suresh Chiplunkar): प्यार-मोहब्बत की किताबी बातें हाँकने वालों से सिर्फ़ एक सवाल… यह मोहब्बत(?) वन-वे-ट्रैफ़िक क्यों है?…… Love Jihad, Hindu-Muslim Love Relations, Conversion

  • tags: no_tag

    • हिन्दू-मुस्लिम के बीच प्यार-मुहब्बत के इस “खेल” में अक्सर मामला या तो इस्लाम की तरफ़ “वन-वे-ट्रैफ़िक” जैसा होता है, अथवा कोई “लम्पट” हिन्दू व्यक्ति अपनी यौन-पिपासा शान्त करने अथवा किसी लड़की को कैसे भी हो, पाने के लिये इस्लाम का सहारा लेते हैं। वन-वे ट्रैफ़िक का मतलब, यदि लड़का मुस्लिम है और लड़की हिन्दू है तो लड़की इस्लाम स्वीकार करेगी (चाहे नवाब पटौदी और शर्मिला टैगोर उर्फ़ आयेशा सुल्ताना हों अथवा फ़िरोज़ घांदी और इन्दिरा उर्फ़ मैमूना बेगम हों), लेकिन यदि लड़की मुस्लिम है और लड़का हिन्दू है, तो लड़के को ही इस्लाम स्वीकार करना पड़ेगा (चाहे वह कम्युनिस्ट इन्द्रजीत गुप्त हों या गायक सुमन चट्टोपाध्याय)…
    • शेख अब्दुल्ला और उनके बेटे फ़ारुख अब्दुल्ला दोनों ने अंग्रेज लड़कियों से शादी की, ज़ाहिर है कि उन्हें इस्लाम में परिवर्तित करने के बाद, यदि वाकई ये लोग सेकुलर होते तो खुद ईसाई धर्म अपना लेते और अंग्रेज बन जाते…? और तो और आधुनिक जमाने में पैदा हुए इनके पोते यानी कि जम्मू-कश्मीर के वर्तमान मुख्यमंत्री उमर अब्दुल्ला ने भी एक हिन्दू लड़की “पायल” से शादी की, लेकिन खुद हिन्दू नहीं बने, उसे मुसलमान बनाया, तात्पर्य यह कि “सेकुलरिज़्म” और “इस्लाम” का दूर-दूर तक आपस में कोई सम्बन्ध नहीं है और जो हमें दिखाया जाता है वह सिर्फ़ ढोंग-ढकोसला है। जैसे कि गाँधीजी की पुत्री का विवाह एक मुस्लिम से हुआ, सुब्रह्मण्यम स्वामी की पुत्री का निकाह विदेश सचिव सलमान हैदर के पुत्र से हुआ है, प्रख्यात बंगाली कवि नज़रुल इस्लाम, हुमायूं कबीर (पूर्व केन्द्रीय मंत्री) ने भी हिन्दू लड़कियों से शादी की, क्या इनमें से कोई भी हिन्दू बना? अज़हरुद्दीन भी अपनी मुस्लिम बीबी नौरीन को चार बच्चे पैदा करके छोड़ चुके और अब संगीता बिजलानी से निकाह कर लिया, उन्हें कोई अफ़सोस नहीं, कोई शिकन नहीं। ऊपर दिये गये उदाहरणों में अपनी बीवियों और बच्चों को छोड़कर दूसरी शादियाँ करने वालों में से कितने लोग अनपढ़ या कम पढ़े-लिखे हैं? तब इसमें शिक्षा-दीक्षा का कोई रोल कहाँ रहा? यह तो विशुद्ध लव-जेहाद है।
    • इसीलिये कई बार मुझे लगता है कि सानिया मिर्ज़ा के शोएब के साथ पाकिस्तान जाने पर हायतौबा करने की जरूरत नहीं है, मुझे विश्वास है कि 2-4 बच्चे पैदा करने के बाद “रंगीला रसिया” शोएब मलिक उसे “छोड़” देगा और दुरदुराई हुई सानिया मिर्ज़ा अन्ततः वापस भारत में ही पनाह लेगी, और उस वक्त भी उससे सहानुभूति जताने में नारीवादी और सेकुलर संगठन ही सबसे आगे होंगे।

      वहीदा रहमान ने कमलजीत से शादी की, वह मुस्लिम बने, अरुण गोविल के भाई ने तबस्सुम से शादी की, मुस्लिम बने, डॉ ज़ाकिर हुसैन (पूर्व राष्ट्रपति) की लड़की ने एक हिन्दू से शादी की, वह भी मुस्लिम बना, एक अल्पख्यात अभिनेत्री किरण वैराले ने दिलीपकुमार के एक रिश्तेदार से शादी की और गायब हो गई।

      प्रख्यात (या कुख्यात) गाँधी-नेहरु परिवार के मुस्लिम इतिहास के बारे में तो सभी जानते हैं। ओपी मथाई की पुस्तक के अनुसार राजीव के जन्म के तुरन्त बाद इन्दिरा और फ़िरोज़ की अनबन हो गई थी और वह दोनों अलग-अलग रहने लगे थे। पुस्तक में इस बात का ज़िक्र है कि संजय (असली नाम संजीव) गाँधी, फ़िरोज़ की सन्तान नहीं थे। मथाई ने इशारों-इशारों में लिखा है कि मेनका-संजय की शादी तत्कालीन सांसद और वरिष्ठ कांग्रेस नेता मोहम्मद यूनुस के घर सम्पन्न हुई, तथा संजय गाँधी की मौत के बाद सबसे अधिक फ़ूट-फ़ूटकर रोने वाले मोहम्मद यूनुस ही थे। यहाँ तक कि मोहम्मद यूनुस ने खुद अपनी पुस्तक “Persons, Passions & Politics” में इस बात का जिक्र किया है कि संजय गाँधी का इस्लामिक रिवाजों के मुताबिक खतना किया गया था।
    • सवाल उठना स्वाभाविक है कि ये कैसा प्रेम है? यदि वाकई “प्रेम” ही है तो यह वन-वे ट्रैफ़िक क्यों है? इसीलिये सभी सेकुलरों, प्यार-मुहब्बत-भाईचारे, धर्म की दीवारों से ऊपर उठने आदि की हवाई-किताबी बातें करने वालों से मेरा सिर्फ़ एक ही सवाल है, “कितनी मुस्लिम लड़कियों (अथवा लड़कों) ने “प्रेम”(?) की खातिर हिन्दू धर्म स्वीकार किया है?” मैं इसका जवाब जानने को बेचैन हूं।

Gandhi and The Myth of Non-Violence | Socialist Alternative | Sourced

  • tags: no_tag

    • Mahatma Gandhi is feted as the leader of the non-violent campaign for India's independence. Many believe he showed how to change the world peacefully. But as Simon O'Neill explains, this is a myth that hides the truth about both the independence movement, and Gandhi's role in it.

      The independence movement was ultimately held back by Gandhi's elitist ideas. According to George Orwell, who was a police officer in India, "Gandhi made it easier for the British to rule India, because his influence was always against taking any action that would make any difference." (The Collected Essays, Journalism and Letters of George Orwell, Vol. 2, p136.)

    • Then at the height of the struggle, a crowd of villagers responded to police violence by burning a police station, killing 22 police officers. Once again, a horrified Gandhi promptly cancelled all civil disobedience across India.

      As Congress leader Subhas Bose wrote, "to sound the order to retreat just when public enthusiasm was reaching the boiling point was nothing short of a national calamity". (Subas Chandra Bose, The Indian Struggle 1920-1934, p90.) Other Congress leaders sent letters of protest to Gandhi from prison. But Gandhi replied that the men in prison were "civilly dead" and had no say over policy.

      Gandhi's backdown demoralised the movement for several years. Congress had failed to provide a secular, united voice for the oppressed masses, and the movement began to polarise on religious lines.

    • A movement united along class lines could have constructed a united India. But Gandhi had derailed the popular upsurges of 1919-1934, and angry peasants and workers now turned to opportunist religious leaders, who demanded independence on the basis of Partition - the division of Hindu India and Muslim Pakistan. In the chaos, millions were murdered in religious violence. India and Pakistan today remain close to war, and both countries suffer massive inequality and oppression.

    • On the Nazis and the Holocaust

      Prescribing non-violence as the antidote to the Nazi war machine, Gandhi said: "The calculated violence of Hitler may even result in a general massacre of the Jews by way of his first answer to the declaration of such hostilities. But if the Jewish mind could be prepared for voluntary suffering, even the massacre ... could be turned into a day of thanksgiving and joy that Jehovah had wrought deliverance of the race even at the hands of the tyrant. For to the God-fearing, death has no terror. It is a joyful sleep to be followed by a waking that would be all the more refreshing for the long sleep." - M.K. Gandhi, Zionism and Anti-Semitism, from Non-Violence in Peace and War (Ahmedabad: Navajivan, 1942), Vol 1.

Page 2 | How Come Rajiv Not Guilty If Modi Is? | Column - Amba Charan Vashishtha | Amba Charan Vashishtha

    • It cannot be whiled away just as a coincidence that riots and butchery of Sikhs and attacks on their gurudwaras started simultaneously all over the country but only in Congress-ruled States. No such incidents took place in any State ruled by non-Congress parties like those in West Bengal, Kerala, Tamilnadu etc. If Congress party and Congress governments at the Centre and the States were not in any way involved, why is that the non-Congress States remained calm and no harm was done to Sikhs or their places of worship there?
    • And the successive governments had been heartless to the bewailing of the bereaved families of the brave Sikhs whose nationalism has always remained unchallenged, unqunestioned. The nation cannot overlook the great sacrifices made by the Sikh community during the freedom struggle, the untold miseries it underwent in the aftermath of the partition of the country and later in defending the country at the borders during wars with China and Pakistan. During the 1982 Asian Games, even serving Sikh generals not in uniform were humiliated while entering Delhi, not to speak of the ordinary Sikhs.
    • "Secularists' unfair to anti-Sikh riots

      Surprisingly, whether it is our so-called ‘secular' leaders, media, intellectuals and liberals - and even courts --, they have not been as fair and condescending to the anti-Sikh riots as they have been to the Gujarat riots. Even towards Gujarat riots, they have been partial to the extent that they beat their chests for the post-Godhara riots that were sparked off by the burning alive in the train of 59 kar sewaks at Godhara. None of them speaks of the Godhara carnage and the need to punish the guilty and provide relief to the bereaved families. All of them shed a hundred tears, incessantly, only for the post-Godhara riots.

      Anti-Sikh crime more heinous than Gujarat

      Comparisons are odious, yet unavoidable. The ‘secular' media and politicians has only tried to overplay the Gujarat riots as have they downplayed the anti-Sikh riots.

      Late Mr. Rajiv Gandhi had tried to justify the pogrom against Sikhs with his now (in)famous quote: "When a giant tree falls, the earth below shakes". But no one in the NDA, or BJP ruling at the Centre in 2002, and not even Mr. Narendra Modi himself, ever justified the riots.

    • If Modi is ‘guilty' of a ‘crime' that took place in Gujarat, then the late Mr. Rajiv Gandhi is no less ‘guilty' because he confessed the ‘crime' that he failed to prevent the earth below from shaking (killing of Sikhs) "when a giant tree (Mrs. Indira Gandhi) falls (is killed at the hands.of her Sikh bodyguards).

      If Mr. Modi as chief minister of Gujarat is ‘guilty', how can the then chief ministers in Congress-ruled States escape being so where hundreds of innocent Sikhs were butchered?

      Why has no SIT been constituted for anti-Sikh riot cases? Why has no SIT or any other special investigating agency not gathered the courage to so far summon a single chief minister then ruling in the States where the anti-Sikh riots took place? Why has, so far, no court took that very action in the case of anti-Sikh riots as has been taken in the case of Gujarat?

Page 1 | His Canon Spiked | Outlook India | Sourced

  • tags: no_tag

    • Kancha Ilaiah's Post-Hindu India should be essential reading for all who get panicky about Mayawati's brand of Dalit politics. Unlike the bsp supremo's bid to empower marginalised groups through the levers of electoral democracy by wooing a wider ‘sarvajan samaj', Ilaiah wants to launch an all-out civil war between Dalit Bahujans and Hindu society. This is an angry, provocative book written by a leading Dalit thinker, who is convinced that Hinduism is the root of all evil in the country. Indeed, virtually every sentence here drips with venom against Hindu society, underlining why we need Mayawati's social engineering skills to succeed.

      Despite the outrageous nature of Ilaiah's onslaught on Hinduism, it would be unfair and inaccurate to describe him as just a poseur. He is no armchair scholar but a self-made ‘organic' intellectual who grew up in an impoverished shepherd Kuruma Golla (not Dalit, but poor backward caste) family in the forests of Andhra Pradesh. His mother, who cast a seminal influence on his thinking, was a fierce fighter for his community and was actually killed while battling forest guards. So there is a ring of genuine commitment and passion in whatever Ilaiah says, however confrontational it may be.

Christianisation of Chennai Doordarshan « Indian Realist

    • Christianisation of Chennai Doordarshan’s Podhigai Channel – 1  
      By Thamizhchelvan 

      Myriad evangelical programs are shown on Podhigai in different names. Evangelisation is going on blatantly in the name of ‘Happy Living’, ‘Success in Life’, ‘Progress in Life’ and ‘Personality Development’. Going by the names, readers could mistake them for Human Resources Development or Educational programs or personality enhancement programs. The conductors of these programs are not Professors or Intellectuals, but Pastors, Padires and Evangelists indulging in tele-harvesting.

    • At a time when private channels charge huge amounts for sponsorship program slots, these evangelical organizations easily get slots in Doordarshan for paltry sums from Rs.2500/- to Rs.5000/-, which helps them to harvest and reap more benefits at lesser investment.

Haindava Keralam - Bollywood actor Johny Lever's conversion programme thwarted by vigilant Hindus in Mauritius

  • tags: no_tag

    • MAURITIUS, April 10, 2010: What was to be a big concert in Triolet to mark Mauritius’ Independence celebration anniversary was, surprisingly, just a mere tactic to lure Hindus to Christianity, reports the Hindu Common Front. The Light Ministries of Mauritius, a Christian Federation representing the several Protestant and Pentecost Churches of the island, invited Johnny Lever — a famous Bollywood star — as chief guest to entertain the audience at Triolet, a well known locality mostly populated by Hindus.

      What annoyed many Hindus attending the concert was that other than seeing Johnny Lever performing as a comedian, which he is usually in Bollywwod films, the latter was mainly involved in Christian prayers on the stage. The Voice of Hindu deplored that Johnny Lever was there to purposely convert the crowd and many Hindus were disappointed by his performance. This led to a serious a incident where the concert had to be immediately stopped due to angry reactions from Hindus of the locality.
