BATTLE FOR THE MINDS OF MEN
By S.P. Attri ( USA)
1. Religious doctrines, dogmas, designs, and depictions in our
time & nealy always in the past have been competitively
presented & pursued particularly by the religions of
exclusivity (Islam & Christianity). It is a fact of amazing
stupor & stupefaction on the part of so many people of the
religions of non-exclusivity, such as Hinduism, that this such a
transparent & obvious fact of"competitiveness" has
completely escaped their notice & speaks volumes for thetorpor,
languor, and the passive attitude of the Hindus towards religion.
2. The recurrent competitiveness of religion really picked up
steam after the emergence in the world of the religions of
exclusivity (Christianity & Islam). These two religions
immediately embarked upon a cut-throat competitive course through
the usage of "word and sword" and the accounts of the
carnage & the blood-soaked bigotry of these two religions
through the centuries constitute an agonizing assemblage of
historical record. The fact of reality is that these two religions
have always viewed their religious engagement as a cut- throat
business, as a total war and as a competitve battle for the minds
of men. It does not make one bit of difference that in reality
Christianity & Islam are not even religions at all, they are
imperialistic ideologies disguised as religions because they are
both ever & ever busy with endless efforts to snare as many
people of the world into their "Imperialistic Religious
Net" as they can. If they did not pursue this
"Perpetually Inculcated Objective", they would have lost
any rationale or reason for their continued existence and they
would simply vanish & disappear into thin air. It is also
worth observing that these two religions are the "Only
Religions" that call themselves as the Religions Of Peace, no
other religion gives itself this noble title. The title is
patently false but provides a convenient subterfuge to conceal the
Barbaric & Imperialistic face of both Christianity &
Islam.
3. Both Christianity & Islam have been upgrading their
imperialistic arts & arsenals of religious war with the
passage of time. Guns have now largely replaced the sword &
the usage of modern information media such as the newspapers,
magazines, radio, TV, computers, and the Internet have become
their new arsenal of religious war, arranged in battle array. They
are spending lavishly on their new arsenals of religious war to
present "The Stocks And Stones" of their creeds as
"The Ultimate Truth." This vast effort is generally an
"Operation Of Disinformation War" designed &
demeaned to run down religions other than their own. Billions of
dollars are being poured into this Disinformation War by the
Moslems & the Christians & their agents are hard at work
trying to present a bold front of the best image of their barbaric
creeds. Words like the "Humanistic Side Of Islam" and
"The Prince Of Peace, Jesus Christ" are used without
abandon. Nobilitated words such as these of halo, blazing glory,
& blushing honors come in real handy & seve as subtle
subterfuges to conceal the real face of Islam & Christianity,
a face barbaric & imperialistic to the core and bad to the
bone. Through this convenient subterfuge art of preaching &
proselytizing procedure, they are trying to Islamicize &
Christianize the whole world.
This clever, contrived religious disinformation war of the
religions of exclusivity (Islam & Christianity) inevitably
carries with it a cargo of colossal damage to religious of
non-exclusivity, such as Hinduism, which are being run down
through terms of abuse & disgrace and they are aided &
abetted in this unholy effort by the Western media which tend to
portray religions like Hinduism as primitive. The Pseudo-Secular
media of India & the pronouncements of the leftist press, who
have never been accused of love for Hinduism, also do their
damnest bit to do Hinduism in as a regressive force, as an
impediment to the economic development of India. 4. The Western
colonial masters are now gone from the Asian mainland but the
Western media & their commercial enterprises are not; they
have gotten a firm hold in Asia & they are trying to replace
the native cultures & their basic beliefs. Islamic countries
are alert to this challenge of the Western media & they have
strictly limited the role of the Western media which they use only
to project & stress the "Virtues Of Islam." Islamic
countries completely shut out the Christian Missionaries. Period.
Thus Western media & Christianity are kept completely out of
Islamic countries.
5. The situation in India is totally different. Western media,
Western commercial culture, & the Christian Missionaries have
a field day in India. India has also been dominated by Marxist,
Socialist, & Pseudo-Secular thinking for fifty plus years and
they have regarded Hinduism as their "Enemy Number One."
The net result is a convergence of the interests of Christian
Missionaries, Islamic Jehadis, Indian Leftists, &
Pseudo-Secular Hindus who have now ganged up collectively against
Hinduism to do it in royally. The disinformation & pure
perversion of their collective approach can be seen from their
usage of words like "Theocratic Hindus, Fundamentalist
Hindus, Communalist Hindus etc." Now, look who is using these
words. You guessed it.
Those groups (Christians, Moslems, Communists, Leftists) whose
ideology is Exclusivity & and Utterly Undemocratic. This
disinformation war, besides misrepresenting Islam &
Christianity, tends to seriously undermine Hinduism & they
succeed in it because Hindus generally do not react to or
challenge these imperialistic ideologies. The inevitable result is
the enormous erosion of Hinduism & Hindu Culture wherever this
pernicious propaganda plague appears. Falsehood has reached such a
ludicrous point of perversion that communists who are Nazis by a
different name are accusing Hindus of being Nazis. This
unadulterated hostility of the Falsehood Manufacturers towards
Hinduism continues. Falsehood is a potent weapon & repeated
often enough, it begins to stick. Most people neither have the
time nor the interest to ascertain facts & they swallow the
falsehood in the form in which it is presented to them. In time,
they become conditioned by the type of information that they have
been fed by the Manufacturers of Falsehood. Simply put, Hinduism
is being eroded by this multi-pronged attack, is being pushed in
the corner, & stays under siege.
6. Hindu religion is much more than the worship of a deity or
deities or an observance of a particular doctrine. Hinduism is a
way of life, a method of thinking, conduct, & speech. It
teaches values that inspire good deeds & it teaches us how to
know the difference between right & wrong, between good &
evil, between Dharma & Adharma. Hinduism has been tolerant to
a fault. Other religions, especially the religions of exclusivity
(Islam & Christianity) have taken advantage of their
over-tolerance, benign neglect, & passivity. Hinduism has had
a time-honored spirit of respect for other faiths but this
attitude of respect has worked against its own interests.
Hinduism needs to extract itself from simple, passive tolerance.
Tolerance lets lie the half-truths and the half-baked stereotypes
that others hold about us Hindus as a result of the relentless
anti-Hindu assaults from the Falsehood Manufacturers. We Hindus
need to go beyond tolerance and enter into active Hinduism Defense
engagement, with full involvement & commitment. This effort
should not be considered as a mere chore. We have to fight in
earnest the demoralizing minimalization of the Hindus & the
warped depiction of Hinduism in the Western & the
Pseudo-liberal Indian press & daringly challenge the
anti-Hindu propaganda bull-horn of the falsehood manufacturers
(Christian, Islamic, Marxist, & the recitations of the
pseudo-liberal Hindus) against Hinduism.
7. Abrahamic Religions (Islam & Christianity) claim that their
scriptures commission them to evangelize the whole world. We
Hindus have been massacred, brutalised, disgraced, and assaulted
as a result of their divine mission of proselytism Anyway, what is
their special grouse against us Hindus? Answer: That we Hindus
exist...along with our paraphernalia of polytheism, idolatry etc
which they have sworn to decimate from the world. In reality, it
is a desire on their part to grab political power in the crudest
possible manner, in the disguise of religion. If anybody amongst
them question their hate against polytheism & idolatry, they
fly into a rage & retort, "Don't you know how evil &
dangerous idolatry & polytheism are and that they are devil-
inspired and that the practitioners of these devil-inspired
rituals are on their way to hell. With stock phrases like these,
they insult Hinduism in every possible way.
We Hindus need to remind the people of the Abrahamic religions of
the simple rule of law that is taught in the first year tort
classes: Your right to swing your arms freely ends at my nose.
Standing by our beliefs & convictions, we need to put our foot
down & assert that we Hindus are not going to accept the
inferior & meek position that the falsehood manufacturers have
designated for us Hindus.
8. We Hindus have been under the "aggressive ideological
attack" of the religions of exclusivity (Islam &
Christianity) for 1200 plus years. Ideological aggression is the
first phase of war & if not adequately resisted, is invariably
followed by the second phase of war, the actual physical conflict.
If ideological phase is properly & effectively resisted in
time, it serves notice on the aggressive adversary that he will be
resisted and many times the second phase, the actual conflict, can
be averted.
9. The inevitable question: What do we Hindus do? As an absolute
minimum, we Hindus must create a new class of intelligentsia that
can challenge media distortions in every area, in schools, in
books, newspapers, and Internet. The Hindu intelligentsia class
must debate issues & expose the distortions & false
beliefs & face upto the challenges of the religions of
exclusivity, warning others about the dangers posed by the
exclusivity religious creeds. Hinduism must come out of its
"Other Worldliness" and the veil of its spirituality and
must not allow the forces of Adharma to take over the world.
Hindus need to come off their lethargic attitude & actively
work for Hinduism Defense & the defense of Hindu Dharma. We
must foster Hindu solidarity as a unity in diversity amongst all
Hindu sects & lineages. We must dispel myths, illusions, &
misinformation about Hinduism. It is about time that we Hindus
fight back to protect our great religion & cultural heritage,
in the true Kashatriya spirit, in the defense of Hindu Dharma. 9.
There is no truth whatsoever in the statement often expressed by
some that Kashatriya Hinduism will promote Hindu Fundamentalism or
Hindu Nazism. Kashatriya Hindus have always fought for the
protection of Dharma, never for aggression, have never resorted to
forcible conversion of people of other religions ( as the
Abrahamic religions have been routinely doing for centuries) but
have always fought for upholding Dharma. It is time for Kashatriya
Hindus to rise up again. Upon the buoyant ascent of the Kashatriya
Hindus depends not only the survival & the future of Hinduism
but the survival of Dharma itself in this generally Adharmic
world.
