Namaskaram,
The Hindu Society is made to live in a pipe-dream that we can become a ‘Hindu Rashtra’ someday soon. It is believed that if we put pressure on the govt, especially on a civilisationally-conscious government, such as the current one, then this vision can be achieved.
We have prepared the attached note (PDF) to bust this myth.
There is a basic structure of the Indian Constitution. This is inviolable. ‘Secularism’ among other values are a key part of the spirit if this ‘basic framework’. And therefore the Hindu society, including our Sadhu samaj, need to understand that no government can turn India into a Hindu Rashtra. When this truth is accepted, only then an alternate and more practical pathway will open up.
In this pamphlet, we have listed out some key problems that the Hindu society faces, which leads it to demand a ‘constitutional Hindu Rashtra’. We argue that by focussing our collective energies on ‘large-scale Gharwapsi’ of willing Muslims & Christians, we can get over all these problems, therefore already fulfilling the raison d’etre of asking for a Hindu Rashtra.
“Willing Muslims?”, you may ask. Yes. It is our well-thought out argument that there IS a category of Muslims, albeit small in %age, who feel stuck in their religion or find Islam anti-humanist and anti-India. The rising #ExMuslims within India vindicates this assumption. We simply could open our doors to them.
Gharwapsi can become a movement, when it is not done clandestinely. Calls for Gharwapsi should be ‘open and public’. Propagation of one’s religion and resulting voluntary conversion are rights offered to all religions by the Indian Constitution. It is therefore completely legal to appeal to Muslims and Christians to return to their native faith – Hindu Dharma.
Each Mutt and Sampradaya and even every Kathavachak, can define their own processes of Shuddhi for inducting returning Muslims or Christians into the fold of their Mutt or Sampradaya.
Hope you shall agree with this effort and position.
If you do, kindly share this PDF with friends in your network, but also make an appeal to your Mutt or Sampradaya or Kathavachak who you follow.
Do leave your comments on this post.
Regards,
Rahul Dewan
