Malegaon blasts: Hindu terrorism

Image
[ It will be very interesting to observe how various parties and especially the central government (the Congress) deals with this situation. We need to watch the scales turning between the Muslim terrorism and of Hindu. Whatever be done with the Malegaon case, must be applied to all over India wherever it has proven involvement of muslim groups. ] Blasts in Malegaon must be condemned without bias. The sanyasin and the army personnel allegedly involved must be booked under equivalent of POTA (if found guilty.) This should send a message to all those who terrorise India that the Law is same for all. It is also to be learnt from series of terrorist activities in India, that while the Muslim groups were demonstrating against the Hindus of their certain acts in the past, Hindus in the Malegaon case has retaliated the Muslim onslaught. I am surprised to read that Jayanthi Natarajan who enjoyed watching Muslim terrorism, quickly started issuing statements after Malegaon once the culprits wer...

Sarvam Brahmamayam

Everything belongs to Brahma Sadasiva Brahmendra believed to have composed this sometime between 16th and 18th century AD. The simplicity of this composition is mind boggling. I add the lyrics and the meaning below here. Priya Sisters, the wonderful duo have rendered the song excellently well. I loved the neraval part of 'sadaaa' in the third charanam. If you dwelve into the feel of the song along with the depth of meaning in the lyrics, I am sure tears jerk off your eye with exstacy. Lyrics: Raag: Darbaari Kaanada Pallavi Sarvam brahma mayam rE rE Sarvam brahma mayam Charanam Kim vachaneeyam kima vachaneeyam ..(what can be spoken what cannot be spoken) Kim rachaneeyam kima rachaneeyam...(what can be created/written or not created/written) Sarvam brahma mayam ...............(all belongs to Him / Brahma is everywhere) Kim paTaneeyam kima paTaneeyam .....(what can be read and what cannot be read) Kim bhajanIyam kima bhajanIyam ....(what can be...

Oct 10: Think it over...

National Integration Council meet had only ONE agenda, to ban Bhajrang Dal. Congress government chose to ignore what was more important to have been the agenda for NIC: Terrorism in India by SIMI (read as Home Grown Terrorism,) Forcible and deceitful conversions by New Life Christian organisation, Issues of border crossing by neighbouring countries, Separatists calling shots under various governments, POTA alternative, Naxals, Maoists, Kashmir (as separatists) .... were not important to them!! And so, Congress and its supporters are secular, BJP+VHP+BD+RSS+.. are Hindu fundamentalists. Saroj Bala's Amazing Facts about Ancient India3 accused in nun rape arrive in Orissa, Father Chellan refuses to help Police

Congress, Hindus and BJP

It is more than proven that the local home grown Indian muslims have been growing up as terrorists within India under the fundamental Islamic training by their counter parts, the Talibans. These trained Indian muslims are those who obviously have no patriotism towards this great country which has bred them, given them education, wealth and everything, including a life better by multitudes than in any other Islamic country. They do not see the Nation as mother, for if they did they would never have taken this course of dastardly action against their motherland (Islam does not approve 'Motherland' concept, however.) What is it for the 'Secularists' to oppose anything Hindu? It originates in the Congress party, their negativism spreads its tentacles across all its allies. I for sure admire the consistent opposition of the Congress party ever since its birth. So I believe, Congress and their allies oppose anything Hindu only because they see to that their principle oppositi...

National Debate on Conversion

LK Advani has called for a national debate on religious conversion (25 Sept.) "A free and honest democratic debate on the issue of religious conversions is the need of the hour." BJP has suggested this many times in the past but only once after Babri Masjid was demolished a all religion meet was organised. But it failed to come to any understanding. Why? Obviously the political thugs poking their noses into the affairs of faith will ruin the atmosphere. Now the Imams and Priests must come forward and have a national debate. None of the directly or indirectly connected ministers should participate in the meet. There must be ABSOLUTELY NO intervention of any political party or government in the meeting. Let the purely religious heads discuss and take a stand and let the government then decide how to make it work. More than just an outcome of the meet, there must be a DECISIVE CHAPTER written by all the religions participating and signed by the leaders. Let a whole week be all...

Lost my eye..

I am yet to believe I lost my FujiFilm camera at Silpaaram in Hyderabad, two days ago. It was a gift from my cute niece and nephew, that's what bothers me most. [Photos: Shilpaaram on Flickr & Engadget.com]

Oct 7: Think it over

A three member commission to probe into 'attacks on churches in Karnataka' has reported, blaming the Karnataka government's inefficiency of handling the issue. This is just another Lalu Prasad's commission into Godhra train burning, and again Nanavati commission giving exactly opposite report to that of Lalu's. Bottom line: These are useless commissions. You just cannot trust anyone. But the very UPA government at center has not so far bothered to send a fact finding team similar to the above, to probe into Swami Lakshmanand's brutal murder when the people on victim's side has claimed it was handiwork of militant groups of christians. What a double standard by UPA! Why wouldn't the christians be happy about all this? :D It appears like every party, every organisation has narrow selfish intentions, protected interests in handling fundamentalism in India. I wonder why the UPA should spend our tax money in setting up a commission with the sole intention of ...

No Smoking in India

Image
Great Move. Health minister, Anbumani Ramadoss's persistence has resulted in the law being truly implemented, all over India. As he said, in the democratic India when 90% of people are non-smokers, the other 10% must accept the public pressure and abide by the law. He is right. Smokers who would protest against the ban, if sent to California or UK, will they ever dare to disobey the State's law there? Like Dr Kalam had pointed out, we Indians may spit just anywhere on the streets or walls or even in some corridors but the same people will never dare to spit in Singapore. There are some well known personalities who are already cribbing about this law. Whatever illogical justifications (like separate smoking cabins in the flights! If not inside the flight can you go out to smoke?) these personalities seem to justify their own lifestyles which they cannot change. It is their problem, not that of 90% others. " I’ve been a heavy smoker for years, and even when I still lit my 25...
