False Equivalence Industry by Minhaz Merchant

https://openthemagazine.com/columns/the-false-equivalence-industry/

Don't focus on personalities, focus on issues, agenda. People come and go after passing time 5-10 years, by that time we also get old or busy. Make issues so strong that everyone who adorns the chair is compelled to do something. 

On Quran: Any long piece of writing, contains statements that can be linked with some truth by stretching and some pseudo logic. But that doesn't make entire writing true. Muslim apologists cheery pick bits and say it’s proof, there are so many errors in the Koran that anything that’s actually right is down to luck.

Their best card is victim card; poverty, western-Israeli conspiracy, bla bla. So first they try to prove that they are victim, and then by some weird logic whosoever is victim, everything he says is true. They play this victim card even when there are 56 Muslim majority countries on planet, of which 36 have more than 90% population following Islam and most of these Islamic countries have laws to protect and encourage Islam, special rights for Muslims, not the tiny minorities. When they are themselves biggest aggressor.

On Islamic Golden Age: 

Thanks to a guy who wrote this blog with evidence, I added stuff below.

 The Nostalgia of Islamic Golden Age vs. the History of Science by Syed Kamran Mirza

https://www.irfi.org/articles/articles_1551_1600/the_nostalgia_of_islamic_golden.htm

Quality matters in Science, Thinking, Ideas or any Mental Activity.

It is foolish to expect goodness from a person who is not informed, intelligent and logical enough. I have met many people who were good at heart, but later on I found them to be very stupid and I fell off.  UG, SAML, MKS, AM many others. 

I have repeatedly seen that just faith or purusarth is not enough to make a person good, make his actions bear good fruit. Faith in right direction helps, but is insufficient. How good we can be is often limited by our knowledge. How good we can be in our feelings and self assessment is another matter and often not the correct measure of how good we are in objective world. I have seen people with very good intentions, kindness, empathy, doing stupid things. 

There are things written on piece of paper, which feels to be right, working. And then there is man, who is subject to not only the cold reality on piece of paper, but also to dark world of emotions, feelings, brain mechanisms/workings, about which he has very little knowledge, about which very little has been written, and even less has been read, so an ordinary person knows extremely less. To control or intervene is even more difficult, but knowing is first step. 

In everyday life, I meet people who are full of faith but have stalled the another horse of their chariot, Just thinking is not good enough. Most humans think. First person can do GOOD with incomplete thinking and feel his thinking is complete. Second person can do things resulting in BAD outcomes with incomplete thinking, but staying in a shell he doesn't feel it. The first one of these is more dangerous.  It is like that guy with 5-6 keys, opening 5-6 doors. Since he is able to open each door in the first or second attempt, he thinks all keys open all the doors. Only a complete thinking (eternally unachievable) can ensure good results over time in different situations (which itself means one needs to rework and understand). We Hindus failed and lost because of our Hubris. We were like first one. 

Confidence people have in their belief, their feelings are very often not justified objectively. People who sit in higher position or belong to so called higher social status, or national status, they automatically are more confident about their views in my observation. However baseline remains same, we human beings are statistically very similar BIOLOGICALLY across the groups, nations, religions, races. So even if someone belongs to certain privileged group or nation, he/she still needs to do objective thinking from scratch. That hard work most privileged people dnt do, hence a lot of dissonance between their views/confidence/social ratings and reality.

One history teacher in school used to say, "whosoever has came up, he will go down, no nation or group is at the peak forever". He said that in the reference to many golden periods in Indian history upto 1200 AD. I think this happens because people become sloppy once they are doing well and are privileged. It is like Marine Diesel Engines (which are most well functioning only when loaded to 75-80% of MCR), we need stress and pressure all the time to perform. Our bodies and minds become useless otherwise. 

Those who have imagined superiority on the basis of birth in certain religion, or caste, or country are careless lot. No wonder India has produced nothing good in last 800 years. Our role in shaping the modern world has been next to zero.

Our main asset is not our passport, our birth cast, or affluence. Our main asset is our mind and on the development of our mind rests everything else, more or less. And while dealing with that you cant afford to be over confident, delusional, careless.  __________________________________________________________________________________

I guess at least 50 million Indians must have played cricket for few years in life. The number in New Zealand would be 0.5 million I guess. But still they are able to challenge us. 

Hebrew university of Jerusalem, Israel has produced more mathematics than entire Indian universities combined. We Indian just like quantity. 99% of our universities are welfare projects to keep people busy and feed them. They produce nothing of scientific value whatsoever. 

Everything which has to do with thinking, that tiny edge is all that matters. Difference between our genes and that of Chimps is very less. Smart societies focus on that extra edge, that one successful research even if 100 fail, that one entrepreneur even if 50 fail. 

Mediocre societies focus on numbers. They can't imagine, they can't see the importance of that. 

They don't see the difference between one successful work and 1000 mediocre work. 

So people in India focus on buying flats, owning land. 

But very few take genuine interest in science and technology or even philosophy or psychology. 

In our daily life, most Indians talk without going into details of matter. Without any thorough analysis. We are in habit of silly talks and shallow thinking. 

Suppose ideas are stones or projectiles being thrown in the sky to move around the earth or into the space out of earths gravity. Ideas should be powerful enough to defy the gravity, to escape the gravity and set its own inertia, other wise idea will die. The weak idea will only start moving away from earth if a second planet with similar strength will come close to the earth. In that case also the projectile will have probability to spin around  the second planet, not take its own path.

Group have their own inertia/gravity. The culture of mediocrity is contagious and pervasive in India. When everyone is doing same thing, it feels to be right and normal. Our herd mentality kicks in. 

When hundreds of human sing a song in a religious gathering, and even if no-one remembers it, you hear the same song which was intended. Even you sing out of tune , you soon adapt to the tune. It will not depend on a particular person. (Result will be different if hundreds of monkeys start singing. Monkeys have completely different set of vocal and brain.)

In vortex induced vibration analysis, formation of vortices about a pipe in sea water depends on the flow velocity and diameter of the pipe. Suppose the natural frequency of the pipe is 0.5, if vortex shedding frequency comes close to this natural frequency, around 0.4-0.6, it will adapt to the natural frequency in very very small time, and vortex will start shedding at 0.5 Hz. (please ignore the numbers)

We humans are very close to each other in genes, such that we can have sex and can produce similar kids. We are not far away from each other like chimpanzee and baboon are from us.

No wonder, most human are predictable in many ways. And behave in the ways in which a person of our group in that particular situation is likely to behave.

A person born in Syria, even with very good innate nature, in most of cases is likely to become part of one of the parties to the war. A person in government job in India will need extremely high will to not do a single act of corruption in life.

A person in an inefficient system will most likely be tuned and bring poor results in-spite of his initial intentions and efforts.

On 14 August 2018, four people were chosen to give slogans during a lamp march in evening (RSS people do this every year, to mourn partition of India). There were hundred people. I was one of them. Few people were assigned to give slogans, others followed. Initially I also tried meekly to give slogans, but I failed. Later on others weakened and my voice grown so loud that I could drown the other sloganeers, others had to stop. If I was not that loud, I would never get opportunity to lead. So remember the fate of your ideas.

If it is too strong to pull you out of the gravity, all ok. Idea will survive. If it is strong but not enough to pull out then it's fate depends on other factors, a wait for another source of energy, inspiration, gravity. It may come in short time if idea is lucky or it may never come.

You will be part of the system, moving with the inertia of the system, like an ant on the back of a camel.

People in Somalia, nice people, one of them helped me without asking. But they can't escape (most of them) from the fate that average Somalian has, the effects on psychology, drug habits, crime, doing nothing. 

Why almost all Japanese soldiers would commit harakiri than escape during world war? There are few planets in the solar system and few moons. Fate of the dust particles, stones is fixed on those planets.

Idea here can be replaced by another set of system, habit, etc or it can be many other thing. 

What I mean is when you make effort for something very difficult, think about it. If it doesn't have enough momentum to escape the current situation then result will be zero. You need to cross a very high threshold to get out of it to a different situation. If it doesn't acquire that then output of the efforts will be naught. 

Unless you jump out of well with certain minimum energy, you will be trapped and only lose energy by jumping more and die sooner. You simply don't have energy to collide with that big mass again and again. 

Every stone you throw out of the earth will fall down to the earth. It doesn't have energy to keep fighting against the gravity for very long.

What I meant is your conviction should be very high and must not hope a change with moderate effort

Or otherwise luck is helping you a lot. 

Second thing is detailed plan, responsible brainstorming. Even for satellites, apart from utilizing available energy, a detailed plan is needed and must be executed with precision in time.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I used to watch motivational videos in past, but these videos didn't seem to change much. 

Different solutions apply to different situations and one definitely needs deep experiences to be able to apply. 

Those who try to swim in shallow in the safety, cannot cross ocean. 

Mostly only those ideas, about which I have well thought out, read properly in detail, are retained by my mind a bit. 

It is like theories, only well studied theories can be applied. Only well thought out plans can be executed, rest are waste of time. 

Essentially good habits are not just trick, in many cases these demand a change in unconscious habits of person. Those habits come by drill. There is no shortcut. 

Every time a person needs to do the same drill. 

People read about Buddha, that doesn't make them Buddha. 

Buddha had best education available in that time probably. And he knew his questions, he had thought enough, before leaving home. 

After leaving home also, he spent seven years. 

Assuming he spent 40 hrs a week 10 months a year, he spent 13000 hours, sincerely thinking, experiencing, experimenting. 

Those who just dally with things, are essentially wasting time. 

If putting 10 hrs a day in study brings some result, putting 5 or 7 hours a day wont bring half result, it will bring zero result. It is waste of money, effort (I don't mean it literally). 

____________________________________________________________________________

My email to somebody: "There is one similarity between you and many third world people. 

If someone asks you about some complex problem, you wont understand much, you will say I believe in doing good person to person and kindness, rest is beyond my understanding. 

Muslims say the same, they don't get into all this confusion about human rights, Darwin and all that. 

For them whatever is written in the Quran that is right, moral. 

It is a lot more simple and easy than law books and thousands of pages of constitution. 

Also primitive laws were very simple. Be it Hammurabi's code or shariya. 

Similarly millions of my efforts at millions of different points of time, don't add. 

It is repetition of simple emotional reactions. It doesn't matter if I react millions of times the same way, or a similar type of millions of people react the same way in a few moments. 

Bukowski said "I am a thousand year old soul". What he meant is that, he has lived much more intensely in one life, than many would live in ten lives. 

Just as billions of Muslim believing and reacting to Shariya in emotional way millions of times in their lives, don't help them understand much reality. 

Democracy is better than dictatorship, or aristocracy. 

But democracy doesn't mean the masses will elect wise leaders. 

A billion people trying to solve Fermat's theorem, doesn't mean they will be able to solve it. 

For their efforts inside their minds, don't add. Every effort dies inside the brain of an individual. 

Like 7 billion trying to throw stones to the moon, will not be able to make it, just like they thought in the old days that the sky would be maybe 500 meters away. 

That is the approach of people to their brains, mechanisms. 

Before it can be added, it has to be solved to such an extent that it can be articulated on paper. 

Since human beings don't understand their emotional reactions very well, they are never in a situation to write much in detail. 

Hence they are never able to add up. 

You always bring numbers, that so many people contradict me so I must be wrong. But you won't succeed. 

Emotional reactions are very simple in nature. These can't solve complex problems. 

Emotions flow like electricity in humans, just like you received this idea of being enlightened by virtue of belonging to Dutch nationality. 

Real knowledge, hard thinking is like trying to flow electricity from a semiconductor. 

Below a certain bias voltage, the semiconductor will simply not pass any current. No matter how many times you apply the low voltage. 

You don't work on your brain and like me you keep repeating your reactions. 

That is at the heart of effective thinking. To get out of repetitive emotional reactions and make some progress. 

Why masses like simple ideas, it is like passing a thread through a thousand needles. 

Only that thread which can pass through the narrowest needle hole will pass through. 

Same way our emotional reactions, which are very simple in nature, and we exhibit them in every hour of life. 

While thinking is like a thick thread, it takes a lot of energy to arouse thinking, and can't pass from moment to moment, we are simply not ready to think. 

So these things have to be reminded again and again and again and again and again, millions of times, to get something done in life. "

If you don't know who your are, and if you get manipulated by anything and everything then you are the problem.  

Why popular story looks normal, real, to people?  

For the same reason as people know their facts. 

From media; it is not that media shows facts; it is that whatever media shows becomes fact.

There have been thousands of cases of piracy close to Somalia. 

Those who do piracy, Africans, they are mostly illiterate, dumb. They are like animals. 

But they don't do the main work. 

Main work is done by some white man, who writes to the shipping company, to owner, charterer.

He negotiates. Africans don't know much, whom to contact, whom to mail. 

But not knowing who is who, and just getting manipulated, makes a person dangerous. 

People like Rahul Gandhi, Shekhar Gupta are those white coordinators, who tell to Muslims do this, we will manage, you get this I get this.

And at this point it is important to discuss who among the so called great authors said anything or expected anything like partition even after so much happening? They were Tagore, Premchand, who wrote anything about that? Most important event for India and they were as clueless as one can be. Did Subhash Chandra Bose know what is going to be fate of Bengal? He did not learn from 1906 partition. Wasting his energy in a futile battle, British would leave India anyway after WWII. Only Ambedkar and Savarkar did some thinking, and predicted it coming. Others did not think, they were like typical Hindu, doing chamchagiri, being nice. Coward, slave of habit, wanting to please people, wanting to be seen good, instead of thinking. Hindu bravery only comes in false show of ego during personal fights and wedding etc, which every dumb person lacking any vision and even animals show. What thse authors and leaders said or wrote was usually not genius. Most of them did not show element of strong independent thinking. They did not make some big flight of imagination. They mostly learned, what one can learn by reading books, and seeing west. 

Gandhi did not think, people did not think. People of India worshipped Gandhi and Gandhi came to his conclusions mostly by belief. 

On RSS Method व्यक्ति निर्माण से राष्ट्र निर्माण

There can be many sources of obtaining views on RSS. One may know views from individual Swayamsevaks, that may be informative but not authority. Because Individuals add their own understanding and that differs from person to person. Only RSS organized events, in which say 20 Swayamsevak participate and their is some person speaking on or to them, that has more value.  Official RSS views are shared to media by RSS representatives (spokes person), who are authorized for it, e.g. Sri Dattatrey Hosabale. There are RSS authorized intellectuals to put their views in Media, like Dr Marakand Paranjape, Dr Rakesh Sinha. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRJcgAp-PdY&t=48s

Rest who writes what and who says what on RSS in media and daily life, is their freedom of speech, their bias, wishful imagination and rumor very often. 

The kind of vilification and distortion which is done by media, and vested interests, makes it difficult and dangerous to say much, because everything will be distorted. People who want to know more about RSS, I would suggest them to read Bunch of Thoughts by Guruji 

https://www.amazon.in/Bunch-of-Thoughts/dp/8186595198

or Dr. Hedgewar The Epoch-Maker

https://www.amazon.in/Dr-Hedgewar-Epoch-Maker-H-Seshadri/dp/B01FM1GWG2

My writing below is based on my personal understanding. 

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

RSS philosophy is not about external factors affecting Hindu society and country. Focus of RSS is internal problems, lack of interest among Hindus, towards country, and lack of brotherhood, lack of honesty, character. RSS main concern is that we have not been able to hold our people, so High castes discriminate against low castes in villages, there is corruption etc. RSS main focus is character building, brotherhood. This yagna of character-building would exist even in absence of British, Muslim, Christian missionary onslaught. It is like working on good health, and we need good health even if there is nobody to fight. 

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

This is my answer to some leftist, masquerading as pro-Hindu, criticizing Mohan Bhagwat Ji on speech in the snap below. 

Person writes: "Hindutvawadi mask is finally off. Inn moodh andhbhakton ke saamne toh dikhawa bhi karne ki zaroorat nahin. .....That's their real character. Not difficult to see why the Hindu is such a perpetual loser."

It turns out that person is some dupe, some fake profile. But still it is important to counter. 

My Response: 

There is a lot of wrong information about RSS in public. I did not listen to his speech, but being with RSS on and off, I have not come across anything in last 12 years which would suggest that so called 'real character'. Without knowing the context such objections do not have meaning. 

There are two types of attainments, one can be obtained by just wishing, talking and thinking.

However many of the important skills involve a lot more. These involve unconscious and subconscious, mind and body. One cannot learn perseverance only by reading essays on it. No matter how many lectures a person gets in the classroom, he won't become a soldier.

Hence in RSS, we see that most of the activities are applied, not taught. Minimum amount of written text exist. In the ancient guru-shishya system, the teacher was not just a speaker or audio, giving theories, he made practical demonstrations, himself and his life being an example.

For very long period, ancient texts were passed from guru to shishya, by word of mouth, before Vedas were written. Same way among the monks who preached philosophy of Buddha, first text was not written until 200 years after death of Buddha. In Japanese Shinto there is very little written text and we can talk anything about Shinto, but most of Shinto is passed through person to person without use of books or texts. Samurai skills have been passed through practical demonstration, takes 15 years to become expert in Samurai. In good in bad, we cant overlook it. Mohammed was not successful just because of Quran, he brought all the applied things like 5 times prayer, Bakrid slaughter, Zakat. So we see that all the calls for moderation (in Islam) through the written texts have failed. Western and upper middle class Indians remain very clumsy in dealing with Muslims. Half knowledge of human psychology produces poor results compared to one who knows nothing about human psychology. It is not required for a soccer player to read books on soccer.

And there are many things which cannot be explained through words. We humans communicated even before we had words. Animals communicate without language. Emotions, body language all are kind of things which we absorb unconsciously and subconsciously. Leftists take advantage of this lack of much written text and media bulletins on each and every thing. And many well meaning people also project their imaginations about RSS. But RSS stays on the ground, because people have experienced what RSS means, their families, old, young everyone. Leftists can claim victory on twitter, but that wont uproot RSS. We all might have many acquaintances on Facebook and Twitter, but in real adversity, it is the people whom we know as a person they only help. Successful politicians maintain mass contact, they attend wedding and funerals in their constituency. 

Marxism is a written philosophy which has produced abject results and it relies on written texts. It has superior propaganda ability with books, talks, but it has always created disaster when applied on the ground. 

Main aim of RSS is character building. And one builds his character in family. RSS creates that family like atmosphere, creates love for country through that practical approach. It is important to keep people away from lime light during that phase. Afterwards, everyone is free to read and write. Every Indic is a family member.  Shakha is play ground, talking corner, just like aangan of the household where kids of the family play and elders gossip and pass values.  

Marxist take advantage of this, lack of written words from RSS. Marxists targeted universities, press, think tanks to demonize RSS and spread their agenda. RSS went to the houses and families.

Poor people, children, old may not always understand complicated political theories. But they understand that this is the place where they belong. They recognize friends, feeling of friendship, a sense of belonging. They know that these are the people who will help. That is how it works. As a Pracharak said during an event: "हमें मित्रता करनी है, हमें दोस्ती करनी है " (We have to make friends). I am living in Mumbai since 2017 and I made most friends through RSS. For good and for bad, you need to learn teamwork. In Shakha they learn teamwork. 

You can't explain theories to masses. But in Shakha they inculcate feeling of brotherhood. They develop good habits. Habits useful for character building and nation building. Side by side they help each other understand the country a bit. You wont like to discuss theories every day. But here we play, we sing geet, we do yoga, celebrate festivals together, sometimes we eat together. That we can do all round year without getting bored. We can't get rid of caste discrimination by reading books. Langar tradition was started by Sikh gurus to eradicate caste discrimination. Most of the RSS tiny booklets are about geet, khela and yoga which we do in Shakha.

There is power in written texts, in propaganda, but that Swayamsevaks can do themselves later. There are many walks in the lives of individuals. That discovery remains open for lifetime, one can join university, media, politics or social service, anything afterwards. 

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Another talk I had with a friend on email, about open mind: 

I didn't learn whatever little I learned by trying to learn or trying to be open minded. I learned in the course of life, from the problems, situations which I faced.

It is not just about keeping an open mind. It takes a lot more to go into depth. I think a lot of people who think they are open minded, don't realize that. A soldier is not a title, it is a name of ability and experience. 

The Same way, a person who has not tested his mind on a variety of ideas, real difficult situations, will not mean much. I had this experience in life many times. With myself and with others. I am still evolving, in the process. The mind opens not like a container lid. It opens with experience and questions. It is a lifelong process. 

I had this experience with many eastern/western friends as well, who were very open minded, had much broader view on many aspects. But after a while I see that they reach the limit. Because they reached the limit of what they had thought. Often very early. 

We humans cannot be completely open minded. It is a relative term, open mind. We don't have ages to think, we need to survive as well. But still we can acknowledge it if we are serious.

Vajpayee Ji on RSS

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjEki8ft1uU

Today Vijayadashmi 2021: I recall some friend from Kolkata what kind of training RSS is giving, why this training, terrorists need training. Well Police, volunteers all need training, not just terrorists.

For the first time saw a gun today during shastra puja. Afterwards I asked the owner of gun, he said it is air gun, not real gun. Two swords were kept at venue. Both were blunt ones, kind of used in shows, without edge. The fact that a gun and two sword was kept meant nothing more. But leftists fill in that vacuum in absence of credible information. But a leftist would conjure, this is what RSS does, armed training killing Muslims, all without any proof. Upper middle class public doesn't want proof, public makes out anything what suits them.  To train you need real gun, bullets, range, target, etc, and you can't do it in small field in city. But who would ask that, people want fast conclusion. 

When during one event some Swayamsevak had brought sword, RSS founder, Dr. Hedgewar, had himself asked Swayamsevaks not to bring shastra. During shastra puja 2-3 swords are kept, these swords don't have sharpened edge. When you buy a sword from market, it doesnot have sharp edge, it is blunt. But you can't see that photos, videos. Indian penal code doesn't restrict possession and carrying of blunt blades for ceremonial purposes with no intent or reason for law and order. Sikhs have more freedom. 

99% RSS processions have no swords or anything. I have not personally seen in 12 years. Processions are carried out always with police permission. When police doesn't give permission, processions have been cancelled, always. 

Crores of Muslims come out in streets during Muharrem, in every kasba, town of India where they have good numbers and some carry sharpened swords as well, with which they bleed themselves during mourning. These processions start around a week before final event. Has anyone heard Hindus objecting to these processions? Has anyone written any article connecting it to something? 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvfWiAq62ig&t=39s

I am thinking that if Muslims managed to  finish Hindus in India, liberals Muslims and leftists would write in books: "Hindus were blood thirsty people, a cult of devil, worshipping snake poison God Shiva, Blood drinking Goddess Kali and that Goddess Durga who wielded 18 weapons in her 18 hands, killing black Mahishasur. We beat those devils and saved humanity" They have done it in Pakistan, where textbooks show Hindus as evil. Abusive words about Hindus are common in live TV shows, news etc. 

They did same to Kashmir, they said Hindu Pandits were elite and Muslim proletariat was fighting for freedom from elite. They said that about genocide of Hindus in Malabar as well. Same they did about Godhara train burning. Same way they covered up Muslim role in partition, instead blamed RSS, which had no say in affairs. Which was not even formed when Marle Minto Reforms was brought in 1909, giving reservation to Muslims and Muslim only constituencies in representative houses.  

When I was a child, there was a Trishul Vitran event by VHP in Rajastha, in that event symbolic small trishuls (which can't harm anyone) were given and some oaths. It appeared in media everywhere that VHP is militarizing Hindu, plans for bloodbath...bla bla. 

Before Modi Ji came in 2014, they spread rumor, "pure desh me danga karwaega...muslamano ka katleam karwaega...", many so called intellectuals said they will leave the country...What happened to their prophesies and oaths?

It is strange that I have been in RSS since 2009, but everyone seems to know more about RSS than me, and they are very confident. Even when they have not seen a RSS Sakha ever in life. But they try to teach me. This is how confident people can be in their ignorant views. 

Every person who has never been close to RSS seems to know everything about RSS. More remote the person, stronger his opinion and confidence in truthfulness of his opinion. They all seem to teach RSS, about what RSS is. As a person be told by everyone else what is his name and who he is.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Dr Hedgewar, founder of RSS was a Telegu, he had done LMS from Calcutta Medical College in June 1916 and was a physician. He was member of Anushilan Samiti the revolutionary organization of Bengal, friend of Shubhash Chandra Bose, and other revolutionaries. His early inspiration Bankim Chandra Chaterjees works, he was also friend of M N Roya who was also a member of Anushilan Samiti, and founded Marxist Communist Party.

Subhash Chandra Bose, and MN Roy all these were terrorist? Is this the way to treat political opponents, the way Congress did, maligning everyone except one family, with factious stories?

And nobody talks about it, Dr Hedgewar was member of Congress from 1920 till 1925, and Seva Dal, the congress team of youths founded in 1923; disillusioned by attitude of Gandhiji etc who did nothing to stop everyday riots against Hindus by Muslims in Malabar and elsewhere, during Khilafat movement, post the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire after World War One. 

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

There is a parallel organization, Seva Dal, started by Congress in 1923, two years before RSS. Unlike RSS, seva dal diminished in popularity at Grassroot. But Seva Dal and RSS were very similar, had similar methods etc. Is Seva Dal a terrorist training organization? Was Nehru in seva dal uniform a terrorist?

Constitution, law of land is still holding. There are 42 designated terrorist organizations in India, most of them are banned from before 2014. There are around a dozen communist organizations in them, 16 Islamic organizations, 5 Khalistani organizations. No Hindu organization. For government to designate terrorist organization requires proof, which can be defended in court of law. Social media doesn't require proof.

There are around 100 terrorist organizations banned by Government of Canada, almost 90% Islamic organizations. A similar number is in list of FTO (Foreign Terrorist Organizations) of USA. UK, Germany. None Hindu. 

Almost all UN Designated terrorist organizations are Islamic organizations. 

Even all organizations banned in Bangladesh and Pakistan, Islamic countries themselves are Muslim organizations. For all their Hindu hatred, they can't find a single Hindu organization to blacklist legally following their own Islamic constitution.

On another question, why there is so much disproportionate focus on Hindutva, RSS etc. And no focus on Islam, Jihad, killings done all over the world in the name of Islam? Why fanatic Muslim leaders don't look into their own house and get away with abusing RSS? Before becoming PM, Modi ji had sent some delegation, he wanted to talk to Syed Ali Shah Gilani. Gilani insulted them, that he has RSS history, he is extremist and Ghilani will never talk to him. Said the man who said:  "A Muslim can't live in non-Muslim majority country, he needs a country of his own, Islam and Islamic state are inseparable". Who said: "Ham Pakistani hain, Pakistan hamara hai". 

All such fanatics tell RSS is extremist. Minhaz Merchant said : "For Akhtar to compare the RSS—however distasteful he might find its ideology—to the Taliban reflects deep-set prejudice, unworthy of a creative man of letters."

These are people full of hate, but they find fault with others.

In my 11 years in RSS I hardly see anyone wearing saffron kurta, Bhagwa kurta or robe. That Bhagwa and tilak is mostly used for fake photo shoots, to malign RSS, by paid actors and actresses, for TV and twitter. 

Muslims and leftists are spreading hatred and are predicting that about RSS since 1925 that RSS will do genocide, they predicted same about Modi before 2014. In the meanwhile they did genocide in Malabar in 1921, Kashmir in 1990s, Pakistan and Bangladesh in 1947, 1971. That is how they cover up themselves and put the blame on Hindus.

My answer to an idiot: How much do you know about RSS? Apart from what you read from internet? How many people you have known in real life? Those people who write about RSS on internet, they write for ignorant people like you.  when you write "xxxxx" , It implies you knows all other people of RSS background. I am simply asking a question, how many people of RSS you have known in real life. I am not talking about fiction you like to read and believe.

What I observed while in collective singing is that most of the people don't memorize the lines even after two years, ten years. Only few remember the lines and still everyone manages to produce a great rhythm. Get ten idiots from road, make them recite some song or poem and then ask them to do it collectively, even if none of those idiots remember rhythm or lines properly, still you get great rhythm. That is beauty and power of association, harmony, beauty and power of the original rhythm and its power to be remembered by those idiots even if partially. Weaknesses, faults of the individuals are covered in such singing. You can't trace who did what, as long as he/she is not notorious. 

It happens in team work, many people cleverly shield themselves. There is less incentive for an individual to remember, to develop his voice, rhythm, and other stuff. But then you reach a limit and then you have to work on individuals to change the overall quality. Same things happen in culture which promote individualism, like in the west, individuals are more likely to be capable. These individuals may abuse or call that original song as bad, useless etc. And will seek to rupture the original song so that they have even more of what they like. But then somebody or somehow another powerful song appears and that song gathers many people. Songs of some culture, democracy, communism, Islamic state etc. Then Individuals are again on the backfoot, because they can't match collective power, even while they have developed themselves. In collective societies, collectively they hit a wall too. And in order to make changes, they need to be busted and then each of the individuals in that group need to change then they reform and form new organic entity. If society is flexible then it needs amendment, and can survive without busting. 

The thing we call organic as a rule, our bodies and brain being one, also are not free from faults. Cultures are small things, Indic people of India say it is 5000 years old. But even the mind and body for which nature took two billion years and all things which were available on earth, still the work is faulty. So we human beings are stupid, and ignorant. So now we are coming up with medication and surgery of various kinds. But we don't call for killing the body as long as we can make changes. If some body is suffering from cancer and not changing then that body will be killed. Collective process, song, shifts the energy and power to the process, and hence individuals have less autonomy. Individualist puts power to the individual, then he/she misses the beauty of the collective works. For ordinary people collective thing is relatively better. For extraordinary people individualistic thing works. For best results both need to push hard. Intelligent societies have harmony between both. We see that in Jews who are well developed as Individuals, but they also work very well as a social team. 

A good process exists to add value, not merely to recycle. Just as purpose of tax collection is not just to collect taxes and redistribute it again. That money has to be used for growth. Purpose of government school is not to collect tax from public, and building and teachers, redistribute tax money. We can compare it to cooking. Collective things are like pot, motivation is fire, individuals are ingredients. If pot is small, you can't cook. But if ingredient itself is bad, whatever you cook will be bad. And purpose of pot is not just to collect and shake ingredients together. 

RSS is trying both to unite and to change individuals again according to our eternal ethos; RSS will serve its purpose as long as it is not losing its second purpose of changing the individual for better, while serving its first purpose of uniting people. If RSS men become like other lazy and ignorant like men in society and start following the all habits which they naturally get from society, purpose will be lost. So even if there is tendency among people to be like they are in society, that tendency has to be countered, as it happens normally hopefully. 

_________________________________________________________________________________________

Biggest reason of RSS success is that it is able to inculcate feeling of samskar, love, respect and brotherhood among 1 million people. 1 million Hindus are able to work as a team towards the same goal. Otherwise no five Hindus can work in a team without any self-interest. That people can work as a family, otherwise no family among Hindus is more than a physical blood family. Biggest thing is samskar, love. So RSS automatically becomes strong and provides leadership to Hindu society, as no other group can cooperate and at the same time claim to represent Hindus. Hindus have no option, but to look towards RSS.

So many prominent journalists show photoshops images, many 10-20 years old from somewhere showcasing entire RSS as armed group. But lakhs of Muharram Julus in which Muslims threaten Hindus on loud-speaker, carry Klashnikovs (mimics), nobody makes snip of that.

Rabindranath Tagore on Communal Problem in India

In his article titled “Samasya”, Rabindranath Tagore quoted  from the report of Dr Munje: “The Hindus of Malabar are generally speaking mild and docile and have come to entertain such a moral fear of the Moplas that the moment any such trouble arises; the only way of escape the Hindus can think of is to run for life leaving their children and womenfolk behind, to take care of themselves as best they could, thinking perhaps honestly that if the Moplas attack them without any previous molestation, God, the Almighty and the Omniscient, is there to teach them lesson and even to take a revenge on their behalf.”

Tagore further states: “Hindus are not accustomed to handle earthly matters in a realistic way, they have snuggled themselves in the hegemony of ‘nitya’ and ‘anitya’ and have lost their common sense. As they insult God by replacing intelligence with rituals, projecting God in place of self-reliance, they suffer, and don’t understand this due to inertia of mind.”

Delving deep into the cause of the riots, Tagore notes: “In another portion of the report, Dr. Munje briefed that eight hundred years back, Hindu king of Malabar allowed the Arabs to settle in his state, following the advice of Brahmin ministers. The Muslims were encouraged to convert Hindus in such an extent that, the king directed every fisherman’s family to allow one of their family members to be converted into Islam. The reason was very simple, adherent king and his ministers considered the voyage as against religion. They delegated the responsibility of coastal security upon the Muslims, those who used believe in their common sense and not in ‘Manu’.”

In the same article, Tagore writes: “The king of Malabar once gave away his throne to idiocy. That idiocy is still ruling Malabar from a Hindu throne. That’s why the Hindus are still being beaten and saying that God is there, turning the faces towards the sky. Throughout India we allowed idiocy to rule and surrender ourselves to it. That kingdom of idiocy—the fatal lack of common sense—was continuously invaded by the Pathans, sometimes by the Mughals and sometimes by the British. From outside we can only see the torture done by them, but they are only the tools of torture, not really the cause. The real reason of the torture is our lack of common sense and our idiocy, which is responsible for our sufferings. So we have to fight this idiocy that divided the Hindus and imposed slavery on us …If we only think about the torture we will not find any solution. But if we can get rid of our idiocy, the tyrants will surrender to us.”

In an article titled “Swamy Shraddananda” in “Kalantar”, Tagore writes: “Whenever a Muslim called upon the Muslim society, he never faced any resistance—he called in the name of one God ‘Allah-ho-Akbar’. On the other hand, when we (Hindus) call will call, ‘come on, Hindus’, who will respond? We, the Hindus, are divided in numerous small communities, many barriers—provincialism—who will respond overcoming all these obstacles? We suffered from many dangers, but we could never be united. When Mohammed Ghouri brought the first blow from outside, the Hindus could not be united, even in the days of imminent danger. When the Muslims started to demolish the temples one after another, and to break the idols of Gods and Goddesses, the Hindus fought and died in small units, but they could not be united. It has been provided that we were killed in different ages due to our discord.”

In a letter to Hemantabala Sarkar, quoted in Bengali weekly “Swastika” (21-6-1899), Tagore states: “The terrible situation of the country makes my mind restless and I cannot keep silent. Meaningless rituals keep the Hindus divided in hundred sects. So we are suffering from series of defeats. We are tired and worn-out by the fortunes by the internal external enemies. The Muslims are united in religion and rituals. The Bengali Muslims the South Indian Muslims and even the Muslims outside India—all are united. They always stand untied in face of danger. The broken and divided Hindus will be again humiliated by the Muslims. ‘You are a mother of children, one day you will die, passing the future of Hindus society on the weak shoulders of your children, but think about their future’.”

In the article Swamy Shraddananda, Tagore writes: “So, if the Muslims beat us and we, the Hindus, tolerate this without resistance—then, we will know that it is made possible only by our weakness. For the sake of ourselves and our neighbor Muslims also, we have to discard our weakness. We can appeal to our neighbor Muslims, ‘Please don’t be cruel to us. No religion can be based on genocide’—but this kind of appeal is nothing, but the weeping of the weak person. When the low pressure is created in the air, storm comes spontaneously; nobody can stop it for sake for religion. Similarly, if weakness is cherished and be allowed to exist, torture comes automatically—nobody can stop it. Possibly, the Hindus and the Muslims can make a fake friendship to each other for a while, but that cannot last forever. As long as you don’t purify the soil, which grows only thorny shrubs you cannot expect any fruit.”

He believed that Universalism is the only solution to divisive and destructive influences of religions. He wanted India to hold on to the Indian ethos and believed that other religious visions were detrimental to the intellectual and moral progress of humanity. “There are two religions in earth, which have distinct enmity against all other religions. These two are Christianity and Islam. They are not just satisfied with observing their own religions, but are determined to destroy all other religions. That’s why the only way to make peace with them is to embrace their religions.” (Original works of Rabindranath Vol. 24 page 375, Vishwa Bharti; 1982.)

Tagore had compared Semitic religions to Bolshevism, which was spreading very fast in the country in those days. Communism is also a sequel to Christianity. In the article, “Aatmaparichapa”, published in his book Parichaya, Tagore states: “When two-three different religions claim that only their own religions are true and all other religions are false, their religions are only ways to Heaven, conflicts cannot be avoided. Thus, fundamentalism tries to abolish all other religions. This is called Bolshevism in religion. Only the path shown by the Hinduism can relieve the world form this meanness.”

In an interview to the Times of India (18-4-1924), Tagore states: “A very important factor which is making it almost impossible for Hindu-Muslim unity to become an accomplished fact is that the Muslims cannot confine their patriotism to any one country. I had frankly asked (the Muslims) whether in the event of any Mohammedan power invading India, they (Muslims) would stand side by side with their Hindu neighbours to defend their common land. I was not satisfied with the reply I got from them… Even such a man as Mr. Mohammad Ali (one of the famous Ali brothers, the leaders of the Khilafat Movement-the compiler) has declared that under no circumstances is it permissible for any Mohammedan, whatever be his country, to stand against any Mohammedan.”
