WE WERE NEVER A HINDU RASHTRA
WE WERE NEVER A HINDU RASHTRA
Rise of fanatic religiosity in India is a product of British Rule which has been strengthened and fostered by Hindu and Muslim outfits which have taken the form of political parties under the compulsion of democracy. Choice of democracy is not natural for them. India has been a land of most diverse religious ideas even before arrival of Muslims and the most striking feature was that all different streams could coexist with occasional minor aberrations. And they were in continuous coexistence with mutual dialog, argument and discussion with one another. This rich and tolerant tradition could keep Indian originality to a large extent despite about 700-800 Muslim rule. Theism and Atheism, Spritualism and Materialism coexisted with keeping due respect to each other. That's why India in her ancient past was never a Hindu Rashtra despite Hindu Kings which would otherwise didn't permit contradictory philosophies to coexist .
In modern times this coexistance is artificially threatened. And modern means of communication are now being used to obscure GREAT INDIAN PAST in the name of Hindu Rashtra.
