The Incredible Bharat

THE INCREDIBLE BHARAT.
India is incredible not for Taj Mahal, Ajanta caves, Sarnat & Konark or anything like world’s biggest democracy, etc, etc, but for its abundant freedom an average Indian citizen enjoys in India. One has to leave India to realize the true value of its freedom. India is the most free land on the face of the globe. One will never comprehend it unless he leaves India. Again, India is a free land because the majority of Indians are Hindus. The day the equation changes, one must infer that it is not at all free. This we have already witnessed in various parts of India like J&K, Hyderabad, Malappuram, Nagaland, some parts of UP & Tamil Nadu.
Most of the Hindus do not care for any rituals or formalities of Sanatana Dharma even though they are born to that faith, still known as Hindus. No one can excommunicate a Hindu from his born faith or caste even if he does not follow any of its rituals. There is no other religion on earth, which gives unlimited freedom for an individual to grow up like in Sanatana Dharma. The day one accepts other dharma and sees the difference in his life. The other societies keep a remote control on the freedom and day today religious activities of its members, and if any one rebels with, he will be either exterminated from this world or excommunicated from that clan. So at any cost, we will have to defend our precious jewel- our freedom. There comes the importance of defending and preserving our great heritage of Sanatana Dharma.
The second important point is that the death of Sanatana Dharma will be the death of various art forms as well from the globe. Arts like Bharata natyam, Kuchuppudi,Manipuri,Odissi, Mohiniyattam, Kathakali, Theyyam, Thira, Classical music, mural painting,yoga, sculpturing, jothisha, vasthu shashtra, various metal & wood works connected with temples and martial art like Kalari payattu , etc have emerged , taught and learnt basically as a part of Hindu spirituality. Therefore, I stand to defend Sanatana Dharma not for winning an election to be in power but for all the above-mentioned reasons. We got freedom because of the dedication of many great Indians after a long struggle. The original defenders of India’s free air are intrinsically Hindus. Freedom is the inevitable part of our great Rishi lineage. Others are interested only in increasing their numbers. As long as they are numerically minority in number, they will be somewhat secular and the moment they become majority they will show their true color.
Our country has given us name, fame, honor, education, wealth etc, etc and it is our duty to reciprocate. Being realized with many facts, it is our responsibility to awaken the slumbering young generation. It is my luck to be born in India to enjoy its free air. My vision is a self-reliable, scientifically far advanced modern India where every living being is respected with reverence. My great Bharat is the one and only land on Earth where the great souls realize the divinity of the unknown power in every living being and greet “Suprabhatham” or “Namaskar” with respect even to a plant and an ant.
Jai Hind

  1. but then there is nothing we can do about it realistically...isnt it? i mean we are hindus...known for its tolerance and acceptance of other cultures....we never were, are, and will be a organised group...and as long as it remains like that there is no way of 'protecting things' which u refered to in the blog...
