My Speech 14th Feb 2013 Kolkata Hindu Samiti

नमस्ते भाईओं और बहेनो ,

सबसे पहले तपनजी , हिन्दू समिति ,और आप सबका में आभारी हूँ के मुझे ये मंच पे बोलने का मौका दिया गया .

आप सब ने सरदार पटेल और नरेन्द्र मोदी का नाम तो सुना ही होगा - में भी उन्हिकी जात का हु . जनम से में भी एक किसान हु। फर्क येही है की मेरा जनम आफ्रिका में हुआ और छोटी उम्र में मेरे पिताजी मुझे england ले गए। एक अंग्रेज़ नागरिक होने के बावजूद दिल से में भारतीय हूँ और एक हिन्दू होने का मुझे बहत गर्व है . और आप सब के बिच में आ कर में बहोत खुश हों। बांगला बालो भाषी 

तपनजि  और हिन्दू समिति ने मुझे बताया के बंगालमे हिन्दू धर्मं का अस्तित्व खतरे में है। क्योंकि हमारे साथ वोही हैवानियत और अत्याचार हो रहे है जो कश्मीर के हिन्दू पंडितों के साथ हो गया। आज वो अपने ही राज्यमें निराश्रित है। उनका जीवन खतरे में है। जो बातें मेने तपनजिसे सुनी वोह सुनकर मुझे बहोत दुःख हुआ और ईसि लिए में ये मंच पे हूँ।

हिन्दू सनातन धर्म ये सदियों पुरानी हमारी पहचान है - हमारा अस्तित्व और गौरव है। आज येही अस्तित्व खतरे में है। क्योंकि, आज हमारी शिक्षा में हम रामायण, महाभारत और भग्वद गीता की पढाई नहीं करते। हमारे हिन्दू देवी देवता को सिर्फ मुर्तिरूप मंदिर में पूजते है। पर हमारी सही शिक्षा तभी होगी जब मंदिर में स्थापि हुई मूर्ति को हम आत्मसात करे। हमारे ऋषि और गुरुओं ने दी हुई सीख का अमल करें। और सबसे पहली सीख है - अहिंसा परमो धर्मं, धर्मं हिंसा तथैव च - मतलब येही है की अहिंसा हमारा धर्मं है पर धर्मं के बचाव के लिए ज़रुरत पड़े तो हिंसा का उपयोग करना चाहिए। अगर आप देखें तो हमारे हर देवी देवता शस्त्र अस्त्र से सज्ज है। येही सिखाते है की हमें निर्बल और निर्दोष जीव पर वार नहीं करना चाहिए। पर अगर येदी कोई हमें मारने आये तो अपनी सुरक्षा के लिए ही शस्त्र उठाना चाहिए। आज जब हिन्दू धर्मं पर अतिक्रमण हो रहा है तब हमें जागृत और निर्भय होना चाहिए। और एकता बनाये रखनी चाहिए। किसिभी वार को चुप चाप झेलना हमें और निर्बल बनाएगा। इसके लिए आवाज़ उठानी चाहिए। 

एक बार में, हिन्दू समिति का आभारी हूँ के हिन्दुओं पर हो रहे अत्याचार को वे सही माध्यम से जागृत करते है और आवाज़ उठाते है। मेरे ख्याल से हमें उनकी लड़ाई में सहभागी होना चाहिए।

आज जब हम हिंदुओं के साथ अन्याय हो रहा है तो हमें एक हो कर न्याय के लिए लड़ना चाहिए। जितना हम चुप रहेंगे उतना हम सहेंगे। मेरा येही कहना है हमारी गौरवता और सम्मान पे अगर कोई वार करता है तो हमें चुप नहीं बेठना है। जो सीख हमें माँ दुर्गा से मिलती है उसका अमल करना चाहिए। 

अंत में और एक बात कहना चाहूँगा। सच्चाई की राह पर हिम्मत से चलिए और अपने भारत देश को प्रगतिशील बनाइये। स्वाभिमान और गौरवता से जिए और निर्भय रहे।

English vs Sanskrit

Below is an example of the early use of  English in the Bible, spelling of 500 hundred years ago has changes every 100 years, the Americans have their own spelling the language and grammar is not logical, nor logically thought out, it just happens. Today's English will look like this in another 200 years time but not Sanskrit.

This is the boke of the generacion of Iesus Christ the sonne of Dauid the sonne also  All the generacions from Abraham to David are fowretene generacios. And fro David vnto the captivite of Babylon are fowretene generacions. And from the captivite of Babylon vnto Christ are also fowrtene generacios. The byrthe of Iesus Christ was on thys wyse. When hys mother Mary was betrouthed to Ioseph before they came to dwell to gedder she was foude with chylde by ye holy goost. The Ioseph her husbande beinge a perfect ma and loth to make an ensample of hir was mynded to put her awaye secretely. Whill he thus thought behold ye angell of ye Lorde appered vnto him in a dreame saynge: Ioseph ye sonne of David feare not to take vnto ye Mary thy wyfe. 

 Sanskrit has not changed in 2500 years and can not change for it is a mathematical language, when Panini 2500 years ago codified it. Sanskrit as Maths where studied in the same logical manner AS ONE, an example of this is Patangil,author of Mahabashya, (a comentery on sanskrit grammer) and in  Chandaḥśāstra presents the first known description of a binary numeral system in connection with the systematic enumeration of meters with fixed patterns of short and long syllables.The discussion of the combinatorics of meter corresponds to the binomial theorem.  Halāyudha's commentary includes a presentation of the Pascal's triangle (called meruprastāra). Pingala's work also contains the Fibonacci number, called mātrāmeru, and now known as the Gopala–Hemachandra number.

Maths the New Religion

We all have heard from the west about Einstein, Hawking, Newton, Galileo and others and many  accept readily what ever they say as the truth, science is about testing the truth and validating observations, and not many can argue with that, so why is western science in particular maths the new religion. The simple truth is mathematics was invented in ancient India as a practical tool for agriculture and navigation, (both used astronomy) it arrived in the west in 1202 via   famous book by an Italian Islamic scholar Fibonacci called "Liber Abaci". Medieval Europe was under the iron fist of the Catholic church, the language of learning was Latin,  the early "universities" where run by monks, the likes of Oxford and Cambridge, they still have that look today that of grand churches. These where strictly Christian institutions where all new knowledge had to be theologically justified as God's Law before it was taught.

The monks toiled to discover the creators perfect grand designs and mathematics was made fit this picture. They turned the purely practical Indian maths, into a complicated but theologically correct version. Ideas of Gods perfect creation, and his eternal laws is how maths is taught today, because maths  holds his eternal truths. Newton even proclaimed himself a prophet when he proposed his  "Laws of motion" . Today Hawkings writes on the origin of creation in a language (maths) ordinary people do not understand, we have to accept believe and have faith in the new edicts from the pulpit of Cambridge for they are the new eternal universal truths.

The Christian Edict to Exterminate Non-Christians

The Christian Edict to Exterminate Non-Christians

"Unbelievers deserve not only to be separated from the Church, but also...  to be exterminated from the World by death." - Thomas Aquinas (Summa Theologica, 1271). Christian civilization, by virtue of its exclusivist heresy and monotheism, became the self-justifying destroyer of all non-Christian culture.

http://www.hiddenfromhistory.org/

"[Saint Thomas] Aquinas is held in the Catholic Church to be the model teacher for those studying for the priesthood. The works for which he is best-known are the Summa Theologica and the Summa Contra Gentiles. One of the 33 Doctors of the Church, he is considered the Church's greatest theologian and philosopher. Pope Benedict XV declared: 'The Church has declared Thomas' doctrine to be her own.'"

Hinduism Studies in America

Those of you who are Hindu intellectuals, this will make you think and question the vast amount of garbage we are fed by the media and the education system                        Read 

Invading the Sacred: An Analysis of Hinduism Studies in America by Krishnan Ramaswamy

http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/8129111829

Was the US Senate Attack on Hinduism an isolated Instance?

Article by: Rajiv Malhotra, USINPAC Leadership Committee Member

The US Senate has a long tradition of opening with Bible prayers, occasionally extending a symbolic courtesy to prayers of other faiths. For the first time in its history a Hindu priest was invited to conduct the opening prayer. Indian-Americans, having contributed immensely to America, naturally felt proud to be afforded equal respect alongside other American religions. But the Hindu prayer was attacked as an “abomination” by hate-filled heckling that resulted from an organized mobilization by civic groups such as the American Family Association attempting, to demonize Hinduism as heathen, immoral and dangerously un-American. The President of the Family Research Council mobilized Americans to block the Hindu priest, saying, “There is no historic connection between America and the polytheistic creed of Hinduism.” David Barton, one of the scholars informing the attackers, declared that Hinduism was “not a religion that has produced great things in the world," citing social conditions in India as proof of its primitiveness. 

The denigration of Hinduism influences the way Americans relate to Indians. Andrew Rotter, an American historian, in his book on the US foreign policy’s tilt against India and towards Pakistan during the Nehru era, cites declassified documents revealing US presidents’ and diplomats’ suspicions of Hinduism. They regarded “Hindu India” as lacking morality and integrity, and its “grotesque images” reminded them of previous pagan faiths conquered by Christians, such as Native Americans. American ideas about India are intertwined with stereotypes about Hinduism.

There are domestic implications concerning the diaspora as well. The great American meritocracy has enabled us to succeed as individuals, and many Indians see American Jews as a role model. But it took the Jews over half a century of organized lobbying and litigation by organizations such as the Anti-Defamation League, to establish their religious identity in public life. The lesson Jews had learnt in the European Holocaust was that their individual success could easily be used against them if their civilizational identity was defamed. Indians also faced hate crimes in New Jersey when the Dotbusters targeted Hindus. Recent rants by Pat Buchanan and Lou Dobbs generate xenophobia against Indians for “stealing” jobs from “real” (i.e. white Judeo-Christian) Americans. As Indian-Americans stand out for their individual success, while US economic standards deteriorate, we may one day regret having neglected the projection of a positive civilizational image. Unlike many other ethnic and religious groups, we have not adequately engaged US universities, schools, media and think-tanks deeper than the pop culture layer of cuisine, Bollywood and fashions. On the contrary, many Indian writers have fed the “caste, cows, curry” images of India.

Hindu-Americans need to be educated on the history of American public religion and the “American way” of claiming one’s religious identity across the spectrum of liberals and conservatives. In fact, even liberal Americans have always been a very Christian people. Hilary Clinton’s devout Christianity has shaped her liberalism. She told New York Times that her Methodist faith has been “a huge part of who I am, and how I have seen the world and what I believe in, and what I have tried to do in my life.” She carries a Bible on her campaign travels and confidently quotes from St. Augustine, Thomas Aquinas and John Wesley, the father of Methodism. Another liberal, Barak Obama, proudly projects his Christianity and delivers many of his key campaign speeches before church congregations. It comes as a surprise to many secular Indians that the very liberal President Jimmy Carter describes himself as a Bible evangelist, and asserts that his Christian faith provided the moral compass to guide his presidency. 

Liberalism in America is about egalitarian economic and race policies, and is not a rejection or even a departure from the nation’s majority religion, i.e. Christianity. The equivalent scenario would be for India’s CPM leaders (the liberal/left equivalent of Obama, Clinton and Carter) to quote Hindu sacred texts and deliver campaign speeches in major Hindu temples. While American labor unions have always been very deeply rooted in Christianity, India’s labor unions are encouraged to discard the Hindu identity. Unlike in Europe, American public life has never abandoned its deep rooted Christian foundations. America’s separation of state and church affects only formal institutions, and does not imply de-Christianizing the leadership or the national ethos.

Indian intellectuals have misunderstood America’s Christian psyche because the Indian notion of secularism in India is very different to that of the American  Indian secularism requires distancing from the majority religion, i.e. Hinduism, by one or more of the following ways: by espousing a “generic spirituality” without any specific religious identity, by condemning any Hindu identity as a mark of communalism with BJP links, or by explicitly blaming Hinduism for all sorts of human rights problems. The equivalent situation would be to blame the Bible for all the US abuses in Guantanamo and in its domestic society, and to de-Christianize America into a sort of generic spirituality. While Hinduism, like all other world religions, does have social problems, it also has internally generated reformations, as well as immense resources to deal with the human condition.

Unraveling this requires understanding Hinduphobia’s nexus in the American academy and seminaries. This is the subject of a well-researched eye-opening new book, titled, Invading the Sacred: An analysis of Hinduism Studies in America. (See: www.invadingthesacred.com for details.) The book exposes influential scholars who have disparaged the Bhagavad Gita as “a dishonest book”; declared Ganesha’s trunk a “limp phallus”; classified the Hindu Devi as the “mother with a penis” and Shiva as “a notorious womanizer” who incites violence in India; pronounced Sri Ramakrishna a pedophile who sexually molested the young Swami Vivekananda; condemned Indian mothers as being less loving of their children than white women; and interpreted the bindi as a drop of menstrual fluid and the “ha” in sacred mantras as a woman’s sound during orgasm. To understand the hatred spewed at us by the Senate hecklers one needs to understand the systemic creation and distribution of such one-sided “data” by an army of “scholars” whose mission is to bolster the image of Hinduism as a danger to the American way of life.

Hindu action points

After a study of some forty years and more of the great religions of the world, I find none so perfect, none so scientific, none so philosophical and no so spiritual that the great religion known by the name of Hinduism. Make no mistake, without Hinduism, India has no future. Hinduism is the soil in to which India's roots are stuck and torn out of that she will inevitably wither as a tree torn out from its place. And if Hindus do not maintain Hinduism who shall save it? If India's own children do not cling to her faith who shall guard it? India alone can save India and India and Hinduism are one. ~~~Annie Besant

It is the obligation of all Hindus to take the responsibility of preserving, maintain and protecting the Hindu edifice – that is being attacked by all sides. Hindus have to lit the Hindu torch to dispel the ignorance and spread the light and freedom Hinduism has enjoyed for centuries not only for them and for the entire humanity if it has to live in peace and happiness rather than terror and chaos. Irrespective of one’s political affiliation, all the political leaders, religious leaders and spiritual leaders have to work tirelessly to nourish the roots, protect the Hindu ethics, embrace the vasudaiva kutumba principle and restore the grandeur of Sanatana dharma that is the hall mark freedom of speech and beacon of peaceful coexistence. All Hindus must support, endorse and adopt the following agenda to restore pride among Hindus, root out terrorism, and create Hindu mindset to establish Hindutva in Bharat.

Global Hindu Heritage Foundation [GHHF] is submitting these concerns to a number of religious, spiritual, and political leaders either in person or by email requesting them to act to revive the richness and grandeur of Sanatana dharma in Bharat.

Repeal Hindu Religious and Endowment Act giving the religious freedom enshrined in the article 26 of the Indian Constitution.

All Hindu Temples should be given back to Hindus to manage their affairs the way the Christians and Muslims are allowed.

An Apex Committee consisting of Hindu spiritual and religious leaders should prepare white paper on the proper management of Hindu Temples with definite time lines.

All the Temple lands that were sold or auctioned should be recovered the respective Temples.

Religious leaders must be consulted on all major issues facing the Hindu Temples.

All the encroached Temple lands must be recovered.

All 2000 Hindu Temples that were converted to Mosques must be returned to Hindus.

Sri Ram Temple in Ayodhya must be completed without any further delay.

Priest salaries must be set depending on the qualifications, training and experience.

Priests who abuse and cheat the system and bhaktas must be removed and prosecuted.

The practices of the pandas / priests in Gaya, Mathura, Allahabad, Kashi and other Northern states must be streamlined, and controlled. The Hindu leaders should speak out and take corrective actions.

Thorough discussion must take place about abuse of dakshina system and playing with the sentiments of bhaktas.

Corruption – this thousand-headed demon must be vanquished at all levels – political, economic, religious, educational and government. It is threatening the very fabric of the Bharat.

Lok Pal Bill must be passed making all government officials from lowest to highest level liable for prosecution for their failure to follow the guidelines to preserve the integrity of the nation.

Black money stashed in foreign banks should recovered and declare it as a national treasure to be used for the welfare of the nation.

Prosecute any one who denigrates other religions, destroys religious institutions, abuses the idols, and denigrates the religious practices.

Prosecute the media who allow their channels to demean other religions.

Stop Hajj Subsidy to Muslims to go to Mecca and subsidy to Christians to go to Jerusalem, Vatican and other places. No subsidy to any religions for pilgrimages. Enforce strict separation of religion and politics/government.

All Hajj Houses must be converted to the use of all the citizens irrespective of their religion.

The equivalent money spent on Hajj subsidy for Muslims and travel grants to Christians must be used for establishing Hindu studies in various universities.

Bangladeshi infiltration must be curtailed and send back the illegal immigrants or occupy portion of Bangladesh to accommodate the illegals.

Courses on Gita should be introduced in all educational institutions from lowest level to the highest level.

Suryanamaskaras, Yoga and Meditation should be introduced at all levels of educational institutions.

Minority Quotas must be eliminated. Meritocracy must be promoted. Bharat should not be a heaven for less qualified and least educated.

Repeal Atrocities Act, which is giving license to the minorities to abuse the act. Minorities are abusing the system to the extent that innocent people are jailed without having an iota of evidence produced by the minorities.

Anti Conversion Law must be passed banning the conversion through deceit, deception, allurement, inducements and enticements.

All educational institutions started by Christians must be investigated for high percentage of Hindus converting to Christianity.

All Hindu organizations and Hindu Religious leaders must engage in reconversion of Hindu converts.

All Hindu organizations and religious leaders must investigate and take appropriate action against those who convert Hindus through deception, allurement and inducements.

BJP, RSS, VHP, Janata Party, Acharya Sabhas, Hindu Mahasabha and other Hindu organizations must work together for the greater cause of the preservation and protection of Hindu cause. They must select the most qualified candidate to lead the country rather than the established candidates that may have served the party many years. Welfare of the Hindu Country should be given top priority.

All religious and spiritual leaders should get united and speak with one voice and encourage their followers to work for the preservation and protection of the Sanatana dharma. Make them a viable and a powerful force to reckon with by all politicians. Otherwise, Hindus have to face the possibility of their existence.

No Hindu should forget the massive destruction of Hindu Temples and Hindu culture, Goa Inquisition, displacements of Kashmiri Pandits, Baagladeshi infiltration, extinction of Hindu population from nearly 20 percent to near zero in Pakistan, depletion of Hindus from 26 percent to 7 percent in Bangladesh, forced conversion of Hindus, constant terrorist attacks on Bharat, etc.

Uniform civil Code should be passed and enforced.

Family planning should be encouraged and stipulated number of ideal family must be enforced with proper penalties. No nation can afford to have unlimited number of children for religious reasons, lest natural resources will be depleted.

Noise pollution laws must be enforced strictly; minarets must be banned.

Illegal use of houses as Churches must be stopped and strict penalties imposed against the violators of the law. The houses being used as Churches must be demolished.

Terrorism – India is being targeted to create havoc by the Islamic terrorists. Separate independent agency should be created to monitor and prosecute the terrorists. This agency should be in a position to take necessary action against any group that profess or engage in preemptive strikes regardless of the sources of terrorism.

The verses in Quran and Bible that advocate terrorism, killing, destruction of Idols, imposition of Jizya tax, and denial of freedom of speech must be expunged.

Kashmiri Pandits – Repeal article 360 and make sure all the Kashmiri Pandits are returned to their property rights restored. Allow Hindus to own property.

Prosecute people who engage in no-patriotic activities such as hoisting the flag of Pakistan on Independence day, burning the Indian flag, insulting the Indian constitution, etc.

Any body that declares Fatwa on any Indian citizen must be prosecuted and severe punishment imposed.

Government officials, who do not discharge their responsibilities, fail to maintain neutrality in fulfilling their responsibilities, engage in nonprofessional activities or act in a partisan manner should be individually liable for prosecution.

Cow Protection – The laws banning the slaughter of cows must be enforced strictly.

Beef imports must be stopped; violators must be prosecuted with severe penalties.
All Hindu organizations, religious leaders, and cultural organizations should heed the words of Arnold Toynbee who said Indian belief in Ahimsa – nonviolence – should be embraced by the humanity if it wants to avoid the destruction and annihilation of human race. Hindus should not remain silent spectator to the spectacle of terrorism and the demolition of Hindu edifice. They should be assertive participants to restore the glory and grandeur of the richest culture that ever existed in the human history.

Hindus and Sikhs Unite

AKALI SIKHS VERSUS RASHTRYA SIKH SANGAT

RE: Rashtrya Sikh Sangat on VANDE MATRAM – Part I

To: Respected Prime Minister Sri Man Mohan Singh, & Respected Members of Parliament, News Media, Intelligentsia & Friends around the world:

An unholy alliance, anti-national, appears to be taking place; Indian Muslims and Sikhs are (unfairly) singing in unison: We object to Vande-Matram, the national song.
Please don't forget: our Bhagat Singh Shahid. I am sure, dear Sikh brothers, he stands ten feet taller, a better Sikh than we all. Bhagat Singh sang this patriotic song, rankling the Imperial British administration of India. This happened in my lifetime. Bhagat Singh is not alone. Kavasheer, Sampuran Singh (of Punjab), Bhai Dyal Das, Haqikat Rai (the Sikh Bahadur), Baba Dip Singh Bahadur, Baba Gurbaksh Singh, Baba Ram Singh Bedi, Baba Ram Singh Kuka, Baba Trilochan Singh (I could keep citing more names) happily roared Vande-Matram. This made our enemy more nervous.

Finally by 1942-47, enemy was so nervous, decided to quit India, and India got independence, thanks to our united and patriotic singing of Vande-Matram.

There is no Sikh religious objection; Bhagat Singh as well as Baba Deep Singh made it very clear; all Sikhs are not Akali; Mona Sikhs (even when they follow the ten Gurus 100%) continue to stress that we Sikhs are a Hindu sect, - that we are loyal to Hinduism (also called Bharat-Mata).

I have been to Iran; Iranian Muslim youth were singing Madre - Watan. Now give me your reply. In Farsi language, Madre-Watan, the mother land is worth bowing to (our parents, as per Vedic culture, Iranian culture included, bow unhesitantly to our mother land and pledge to defend it from the external enemies.

The Egyptian case comes to mind. The Arab Islam was trying to defeat the Egyptian patriotism (Egyptian Coptics, the defenders sang Mother Egypt). The Arab attackers were very savage and barbaric. They threw up the Coptic babies in the air, catching them on their spears on the rebound. These babies were thus threaded on to the sharp-edged spears with instant death. Why so much cruelty on the innocent children? IS THIS YOUR WAY OF EXPLAINING ISLAM THE PEACEFUL RELIGION!

Jehad: You tell the Kafirs, you have no right to be Hindu or Sikh or Farsi Zardushti: “Convert to Islam instantly or be beheaded.” Is this the peaceful Islam or the live and let live coexistence?

With Jihad as Islamic tenet, it gives Islam the liberty to become Al-Caponic (an American Mafia, Chicago gangster) gangster, terrorizing the Hindu or Christian neighbor. Who can give you this right in a non-Muslim country, like USA? Jehad is totally unacceptable in any modern nation. It should not be legal even in Muslim majority countries. The non-Muslims have the right to practice their religion peacefully unchallenged; This is the UNO. World Charter... no religious persecution just because we are non-Muslims.

Every year, Pakistan has a case, a Christian youth is about to be lynched. No modern country in the world should terrorize its minority and the Muslim majority must let their non-Muslim minority practice their religion as first class citizen.

The Muslim practice is to the contrary: In Malaysia and Bangladesh, Hindu temples are being systematically destroyed, not the adjacent mosques. We tell such Jehadis: Stop terrorizing the peaceful Buddhists or Hindus or else stop claiming yourself to be "A Peaceful Islam."

Islam spread in the world through sword and cruelty, not through peace. Islam suppressed the conquered Buddhists (the whole Central Asia later called Turkistan) savagely.

In India, Islam fights not to let Hindus revive their Ram temple, but in reverse, totally unrepentant that Islam destroyed 3,000 temples and forcibly made these into mosques (why do you claim Islam means Peace and Shalom?).

You staged a (forced) game on the Buddhists..... two circles, inner and outer. The inner circle is of Buddhists, they must keep circling, dancing, even if they are tired. If and when they give up, they move to outer circle, which indicates: O.K. I am converting willy-nilly to Islam. All this time, the inner circle was being flogged by the Muslim Jehadis. In Egypt, the Coptics were unallowed to speak Coptic language. Arab language came as an outside imposition by the Arab invaders. Neither by language nor by blood, the Egyptian are Arab per se.

Now you moved into Iran and the terror finished the Zurdushti religion & culture. The Iranian police beat the native girl, if not in burqa. In Turkey however, Kamal Pasha encouraged the dropping of Arabic language or culture. You can see unveiled lady engineer, a pilot, an attorney or a judge. Now the world scholars are predicting - you are extending the game of denationalizing on the Western world. This means, Islam is not a religion, it is Arabic imperialism, political as well as socio-culturally. Europe or USA may wake up but it might be too late, as was the case with many others. Spain recovered - just in time.

Well, back to our Sikh saint Baba Faqir Chand of Sialkot district (pre-partitioned Punjab, his village named Kotli Faqir Chand. Tradition credits Baba Faqir Chand with possessions of miraculous powers, hence venerated by the public.

Later, his son, Ram Singh Bedi would rise to the same level of veneration. The villain in this history, Shahanchi Khan was cruel in contrast, having a persistent habit of savage cruelty towards peaceful Sikhs and Hindus of Sialkot area. He would go to Hindus & Sikhs homes, his goons promptly beheaded the males and kidnapped the women and girls for rape and for sale as slave (in Kabul market). The freshly cut Hindu/Sikh heads were placed on hot griddles (the beads would dance thus on the griddle).

After the old father Faqir Chand’s martydom, Baba Ram Singh started the counterattack, to make the cruel Shahanchi Khan stop this barbaric savagery. Both sides grew large; Khan’s army up to 30,000 Jehadis and the patriotic defense up to 8,000 volunteers. To make it in brief, despite heavy odds, the patriots won the day; Shahanchi Khan got killed while fighting and non-Muslims heaved a sigh of relief. We can ascertain this piece of history (BOOK: History of Punjab: Author Mohammed Latif, the historian).

Peaceful Nanak Dev (1439-1533) heart bled at the thought of mass scale Muslim savagery in India. Says he: “The age of sword and rules are butches Muslim virtue had taken wings and fled the dark night of Amavas has enveloped the moon of Truth and Justice and Indians look for fair men and coexistence in vain.”

CONCLUSION: There is nothing wrong with Vande Matram, India’s sacred slogan. WE MUST LEARN NOW: “UNITED WE STAND TOGETHER– DIVIDED WE FALL.”
