Communalism and Dharma in my point of view.

Some discussions on Communalism is always on air in some form...whether discussion on terrorism or on Mandir/masjid/vaandemataram...or films related these issues...etc. I have written few lines about it earlier on many ocasions...Sudhirji is invited for a discussion on Communalisn by some organization...so that Bill can be drafted on it from their side.!!

Let me explain it, in my view,mixed version of mordernity and traditional thinking means, if you do not follow any tradition or western concepts mindlessly.If you think universally,logically and do scintific interpetation of things, understand what is right and wrong for you and society as society has some norms and we are a social animals.For example- even Ayurveda, yoga, ved, upnishad, Ramayan, mahabharata,Panchtantra...has its value if we take benificial things out of it or interpret things scintifically and weed out wrongs like supertitions, bad traditions etc.., as some people say -apne suvidha ke mutabik sochna. But If I say it in one line, its a doha- SAR SAR GAHI KARE, THOTHA DE UDHAYE.

Our country is speacial because of its diversity, we all are so different from each other but united. It is a COMPOSITE society where we all belong to different states, different castes,different religion, different strata or financial background. We have different, eating habits, dress, traditions, language,thinking, climate, topographical situation, crops...so many things...still we are united and live with love, affection and respect. We always did as, history has proofs, so many civilizations created and destroyed, so many
dynasties invaded us, ruled us, tried to distroy us,but finally get absorbed. Their impact is still on us as we are large hearted multiculutured society, which has seen ups and downs in so many years but survived and thrieving, as IQBAL rightly said, QUA BAT HAI KI HASTI MITATI NAHI HAMARI, SADIYON RAHA HAI DUSHMAN DAURE ZAMAN HAMARA. SARE JAHAN SE ACCHA HINDUSTAN HAMARA. We have lots of responsibilities on us as in history its we who shown paths to the whole world, whether as rulers or as spiritual dharm gurus...or in many other specfic fields.

Recently Martin Luther king III has said, Its Mahatma Gandhi's Ideas and thinking which change America, so as Gautam Buddha, Mahavir, Vivekanand, or Sikh guru's has its influence, other than our mythological dieties or historical rulers. In contemporary India Nehru was pioneer of NAM, Panchsheel...contributions of our leaders of different fields are noticeble in world arena...So why is this that why we can not guide them at this difficult time of ECONOMIC RECESSION, TERRORISM, OR FEAR OF NUCLEAR WAR...POVERTY, UNEMPLOYMENT,PSUEDO COMMULISM FOR VESTED INTEREST...MISINTERPETATION OF DHARM..JIHAD AND KILLING IN NAME OF GOD OR SELF DEFENCE? (Though self defence is important after a point of of patience.)Environment problems are issue which is taken care of seriously, question is adaptability, or learning process from each other is always there, which is called GIVE-AND -TAKE, but can't we take initiative to guide them? Umeed ki kiran Bharat se kyon nahin nikal rahi?

I define Dharma as a kartavya for and aastha in any thing. If you believe in a stone and start doing seva as vaishnav's do to krishna's murti,you start feeling the emotions for that piece of stone or murti, which we describe as a pranpratishtha...this is what make as Insaan instead of robot. Only this Aastha, Prem,Karuna,sneh bhav..can make world free from hatred, jealously, bloodbath...

I am writing one writeup in Aditifoundation.blogspot.com...discussion forum of our website...www.aditifoundation.co.in!!

Its a baatcheet with school kids on dharma/paramparayein/and related stories and its scientific interpetation and message behind it....my thinking behind it is to convey things correctly which exists in our Society and need not get propogated in a way that spread AANDHVISHWAAS/BHRAANTIAN/WRONG THEORY....OF OUR TRADITION AND CULTURAL ASPECTS...!!

Though Holi is approaching but I'll write about Diwaali as "an example"...how I interpret things.
