Still wondering why Hindu Defense League?

On the 7th March 2011, in a post here on Deshdaaz, the need for Hindu Defense League(HDL) was expressed. As expected readers expressed concerns in private. I remain fettered to that view. Take a look at this video why the need is NOW. Once you finish watching begin to count how many "NO-Go Zones" in Bharat. More importantly are these NO-Go zones increasing/decreasing over time. Lastly salute to the brave French woman in the video.

Awesome footage just in from NNN(Nationalist News Network)

Friends,

Please don't miss this raw unedited/uncut videos of  Barkha Dutt being forced to leave from India Gate in New Delhi. She attempted to cover people's movement against Corruption. Barkha Dutt, a tainted journalist from media house called NDTV, is alleged to be facilitating negotiations on union ministerial positions between ruling Congress party of Bharat and her ally DMK.

Introducing Darul Uloom Deoband in Bharat

Post partition of Bharat, Darul Uloom Deoband has been by far the most renowned and influential school of thought for spreading Islamic thought throughout the world in modern times. It is also the largest school in terms of out-reach beyond Asia, consistently ranked above University of Al-Karaouine and Al-Azhar University, most noted chief centers of Arabic literature and for spreading Sunni Islamic thought.

That is what prompted to read and research more about Darul Uloom Deoband. What comes next is un-comforting and unnerving. Every aware person irrespective of his religion must know what Darul Uloom Deoband based in Uttar Pradesh is teaching about religions, well beyond borders of Hindustan. Watch patiently and carefully and wait until it comes to teaching about Hindus/Hinduism. This video is only part 1 produced by EDL or English Defense League. Other parts are available on youtube.

Note: Mentally prepared to take on abuse and threats that will follow as this post goes live. Perhaps would not have gathered courage to raise my voice if not for the NYPD :). Thank you USA.

It is time for HDL, Hindu Defense League, if we care as much about our kids, as much our parents cared for us. HAF or Hindu American Foundation is first step in that direction.

Patriotism personified

Salute to Shri Ranjit Sinh. Apologies to viewers who cannot understand Gujarati. Please write/comment if you would like to hear translation. FYI, the village is just North-East of Godhra, the nearest known town.

Responding to Mr. Vir Sanghvi.

Our self-confessed member of secular establishment, Mr. Vir Sanghvi has published this in view of latest court verdict on Godhra case. (Link with details on verdict)

Here are Deshdaaz's quick and initial observations on the post by Mr. Sanghvi.

Dear Mr. Sanghvi,

Wrote to you on twitter and again writing here(talk about 140 chars limits!). Your article is very interesting in many respects.

1) The timing of the article : Post Nira Radia gate, you & other journos(Barkh Dutt to be precise) desperately seek to claim back the space ceded to upcoming journalists. Let me point out the obvious that it takes years to build respect,moment to loose.

2) This article is indicative of secular establishment acknowledging tough road ahead(painted saffron!!) on the way back to power in 2014.

3) It is also an inkling of rift within secular establishment and your article serves to limit the fallout by drawing attention of the stakeholders of the establishment AND at the same time personally score some points on the blackboard of Narendra Modi :), an indeed intelligent maneuver Mr. Sanghvi.

Lastly, for whatever reason(s) behind, it is refreshing to see a New Delhi based writer to able to call spade a spade. Believe Mr. Sanghvi deserve pat for it.

Uttar Pradesh staggering in darkness....light to come

Hurray ! Finally poor Hindu Indians will be shown light !


India (MNN) ― After hearing story after story of church growth in India, it's easy to start believing that everyone in the country has access to a church--and certainly to the Word. India's a big country though, and although the Lord has undoubtedly been moving, there is still a vast field to harvest.
According to Operation World, the state of Uttar Pradesh in India is one of the least-evangelized places in the world. Operation World experts say, "This single state of India probably represents the most intense concentration of unevangelized people and groups in the world, and thereby the greatest mission challenge."
A recent census says 579 of the state's 613 people groups have no Christians at all.
The church in the state of Punjab in India is growing a little faster. 60 percent of people in the state still follow the Sikhism, but believers are growing in number. One Bibles for the World missionary recently reported baptizing over 100 new believers across Punjab in 2010.
Church growth is encouraging in Punjab, but still the majority of people are not following Christ.


Each state of India has its unique challenges, but Bibles for the World has taken up the plights of these two for now. In response to the darkness covering Uttar Pradesh and the need in Punjab, Bibles for the World is preparing to print 1.2 million copies of the Gospel of John in Punjabi and Hindi in 2011. The Word will be distributed across Punjab and Uttar Pradesh.
Bibles for the World invites you to join them in this exciting effort to plant the seed of God's Word in these two states this year. Your financial and prayer support are most welcome. If you feel God calling you to be a financial part of this transformative year, click here.
Image of Hindi Bible distributed in Bharat
Pray that these Gospels would reach the hearts of millions across the two states. Pray especially for Uttar Pradesh, that the number of people groups without believers would drop significantly in 2011, and that the powerful light of Christ would shine brightly across the entire nation.

Hindus should be ashamed of their-selves for not being able to stop evangelists from converting their 'own' poor and uneducated Hindu brothers and sisters by means of force/deception/enticement.

We, The Hindus

First things first, the title of this post is inspired by News anchor Barkha Dutt's show "We the People". Despite all the allegations against her (which perhaps will never be proven but personally speaking, I am inclined to believe they are true), rightfully so I would give her credit for it. After reading @nationalizer post on Citizen Journos a thought struck me like a lightening on this icy morning. Sooner or later, this thought will strike more or less every Hindu. 

Until just yesterday, I believed KP's exodus from valley in the 90's was the only instance when either due to circumstances/shortcomings/
lack of preparedness/anticipation whatever you call it, Hindus retreated 4m what was their beloved home/motherland. Well, nationalizer's post says that was not the only incident of the its kind. Konkani's moving away from Goa due to incoming Portuguese was also one such case. Just then I was forced to sit back in think in retrospect. It made me realize that if we think carefully we, the Hindus have lately developed the mindset and psyche of a defeatist, always stepping back when the adversary pushes ever so lightly. And it is systemic which is tied to our culture, the culture of how way we raise our kids. Here is small list that I could compile based on my personal life experience and knowledge and I am sure many readers will have their own additions to it....

1) It all begins in the childhood during school days. Take a case of a 5th grader going to school being bullied by kid(s). What are the actions of his Hindu parents. a) Ask the kid to stay away from the bully. b) Try to get his/her class changed from "A" to "B" through special request. c) In extreme case, change the school of their kid. These hypothetical scenarios do play out in real life.

2) We grow up and some of us fall in love with the "wrong" person. One of the possible action is elopement.

3) Most of our neighbors were from the "old city" or the "walled city" area. This is the part where main bazars of the city are and were once 100 % occupied by Hindus. Slowly Muslims started to occupy some residential places thanks to progressive Hindus who started to sell their properties to them, breaking away from the norm/tradition. Although there is/was no apparent harm in living together in peace, slowly the existing residents started to move out to newly developed western part of the city.

4) Many well-educated Hindus from almost every state of India, riding high on their educational success took first available flight to USA(including myself). Though some of us would be genuinely interested in pursuing higher studies or have passion in fundamental research that would eventually help mankind, majority fall in the basket tagged "Let's run away from India". To put it out there, I am no exception to this. I was being pushed away from the corrupt and future-less India perceived then. Thanks to Congress rule, and prevailing pessimism about India's growth, many middle class families had sent away their kids. Again knowingly/unknowingly going away from the problem.

5) Here in USA, where we do all the due diligence before we buy our first house. Despite that, say for instance the public school that your kid goes to in your neighborhood is now ranked lower consecutively for 2 years OR the beautiful park near our house is going to be converted in to a commercial complex. What would be our next step ? Of course Sell Baby SELL!! Sell the house and look for better area,new house.Trying to fight back and keep the park? Oh, that's for the white residents of the subdivision !!!

6) Hindus remaining in Pakistan/Bangladesh have repeatedly requested asylum in India.

7) In recent(actually on-going) communal clashes between Hindu Rabha Community and Christian Garo community on Assam-Meghalaya border, Hindus ran away from their properties and later complained about their burnt down/vandalized houses/shops. Yes, I know that you do not know about this because because CON-gress hired paid TV media did not report. Here are some links. 

Careful thinking of all the above situations reveals only one thing. Lack of willingness to fight back the odds. Mahatma Gandhi once said something to the effect that one can fight strong body but it is impossible to fight a strong mind. Sadly we, the Hindus lack both.

Just how long will we, the Hindus would keep running away from our problems ? This "Run-away" marathon worked well so far for us. Left India to settle in other parts of the world to avoid fighting back. BUT WHAT NOW? As more and more nations curtail their immigration inflow, there is NO MORE place on this planet left for the Hindus to run away. Our only last remaining (and diligently avoided all this far) choice is to stand up and fight WHEREVER we are. Communities/states/nations can be better or worst based on our collective efforts. Will we ever realize that ? What will it take for us as a community to realize this?

This right or wrong over-thinking/analyzing Hindus/Hinduism motivated me to get up @ 3 am and pen down these thoughts. Full credits for this goes to my beloved state leader and Chief Minister Shri Narendra Modi. He once said "Dreams are not what you see when you sleep, dreams are those which don't let you sleep"...I have one such dream...Do you ?

Firmly in agreement with @nationalizer in that "I dream  to see all kashmiri pandits happily living  in their homeland Kashmir,at least two years before I die…!!!!"

Though I have NEVER been to a single RSS(Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh) Shakha/presentation/function, I would like to conclude by para-phrasing one of their song lines...."हिंदू जागे तो विश्व जागे"

 जय हिंद |
