Why a Muslim Can Never Be a Leftist

Why can a Muslim never be a leftist? In the winter of 2004, I had the opportunity to attend SFI's Parliament march. Two days and two nights were to be spent at a camp near Humayun's Fort. A large hall was reserved for the stay of comrades from Bihar, Kerala, and Karnataka. All the leftists there from Bihar

Why the Surf Excel Ad is Symbolic of a Divisive Mindset

The 'Surf Excel' advertisement is currently a subject of discussion, but amidst that advertisement lies a serious issue about which those who understand and shape human sensibility do not show concern, and their lack of concern is precisely what nurtures separatism, fragmentation, and other such mindsets in India. On 27 February 2018, Surf Ex

Even Jinnah and Iqbal Will Not Escape Islamic Fundamentalism

If you visit the official website of the Government of Pakistan, you will find the photographs of two individuals on the homepage: one of "Allama Iqbal" and the other of "Muhammad Ali Jinnah". In Pakistan, the stature of these two is nothing less than that of a 'Waliullah' (friend of God), which is why people there proudly append *Rahmatullah Alaih* (mean

PM Modi's Ayushman Bharat Yojana Is a Crisis for Missionaries

Where motherhood is considered a curse in the 'Old Testament' of the 'Bible', every illness that befalls us is deemed a boon. The reason given for this is that God gives us disease so that we may be purified and become like gold. Therefore, their proselytizers consider patients to be like the crops in their threshing floor, wh

Devendra Swarup Is No More: A Beacon Extinguished

This dates back to the very nascent phase of propagating the work of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh in Bihar. A pracharak (full-time Sangh worker) had been sent to Bihar to initiate the Sangh’s work. When he went to establish contact with an eminent and influential figure, it was only after many days that they were able to meet. When they met, that person ... this p—

When Shri Ram was instructing Bharat in statecraft at Chitrakoot, He asked him whether the purohits (family priests) and brahmins in his kingdom were living in peace and happiness.

The Story of Madalasa Proves the Supreme Place of the Mother in Hindu Culture

माता गुरूतरो भूमेः (The mother is weightier than the earth)—in the Mahabharata, when the Yaksha asks Dharmaraja Yudhishthira, ‘Who is heavier than the earth?’, Yudhishthira replies, ‘माता गुरूतरा भूमेः’ (The mother is weightier than the earth). Yudhishthira’s affirmation of this exalted preeminence of the mother is by no means casual; if you study the Vedas (revelatory canonical scriptures), the Veda, extolling the glory of the mother, proclaims that the mother...

Jabala, Satyakama, Maharshi Gautama: Essence of Hindu Dharma

Are the DNA of Hindus and Muslims the same?

While reading the novel "Doosri Jannat" written by Nasira Sharma, born in DNA Allahabad, I suddenly remembered Allama Iqbal, who in his "Jawab-e-Shikwa" restlessly and immersed in grief says to his co-religionists: "वज़ह में तुम हो नसारा तो तमद्दुन में हनूद/ ये मुसलमां हैं जिन्हें देख के शर्माये" (The Christians are [ahead] in reason, and the Hindus in culture; these are Muslims, seeing whom [even Islam] is ashamed.)
