The Third-Eye 

By- Pamarty Venkataramana

Who is a Hindu? A humanist? A person who worships the entire universe ? One who ignores other cross-currents of human thoughts?
India is the truest land of Hinduism. Where despite centuries of plunder,loot and destruction by greedy invaders and acts of treason by moles in the polity,the fabric of humanity exists unabated.
The label of being the largest democracy in the modern world is but just that. What this nation of multi-cultural,multi-lingual,multi-religious conglomeration ought to be identified is by the idiosyncratic syndrome of letting loud sinners enjoy place of pride with the silent winners: Hindus are a most tolerant race. For,they know not fanaticism nor frenzy of passion for what they believe. Those that sought to divide and differentiate amongst mankind soon came to be exterminated.
Hinduism, in its original form,has been the powerhouse of all knowledge and secrets of civilisation. Existence meant co-existence. Tolerance meant indifference. Passion meant discipline. Totalitarianism is unknown. Authoritarianism was banal. All life is subservient to the Almighty. Nature is Mother. Rebirth isn’t a fancy notion but one which propels and determines the actions of the present lifespan. Dharma or righteousness of being a Being of Mankind is the factor of being alive as a living being. This, being in the Being is Hinduism.
Metaphysical to the physical;nature of man towards Nature-such is the spectrum of thought and deeds imparted by Hinduism.
Yet, what ails India today?
Although the present generation have grown aware of the fact that the colonialists has split this mighty land into different countries before departing and that India was declared to be -‘India,that is Bharat!’,the lineage of semi-literate and illiterate leaderships have twisted and mangled the essence of being an Indian.
No longer does the State not permit the religious label of a citizen to influence its policy making duties but the very lifestyle and span of life of an Indian is determined by whether or not he or she belongs to a particular ‘protected’ denomination or following. The majoritarian population of Hindus has been reduced to becoming the nanny of ‘nano-leaders’.
Visible evidence lies not only in the fact of State control of temples and Hindu endowments which are rich In philanthropic funds and dispersion of faith,the very fact that these donations made by devout Hindus are blatantly and shamelessly used by atheists and for welfare of non-Hindus must be a slap in the face for every donor and professed Hindu.
There are cowboys and playboys galore who play to the gallery announcing themselves to be a Hindu and there are umpteen other pseudo leaders of regional outfits who escape confrontation with such a gross reality by taking refuge under the empty phrase of ‘being bound by a oath under the Constitution’ !
Gone are the days when the August Houses of Parliament were haloed wells of thought and purposeful debate. The recent slogan-shouting during the oath-taking ceremony exhibits the composition of mindlessness and fanaticism influencing the land of Hinduism.
A most compassionate land of wisdom has got transformed into becoming a country which panders to terror unleashed in threats and coercive acts by ‘minority’s pet lads’ .
Wake up,oh party that rose to power uttering the name of the epitome of righteousness – Lord Shree Rama.
Reawaken Hinduism 🕉 for its peaceful and assertive role. Stop letting dummy establishments from controlling your places of worship. Stop offering wealth into hundies and donation-boxes – be it gold,silver ornaments or cash and kind: unless the Temple-managements begin to set up distinct boxes with the labels-‘ for Hindus ‘ and ‘for non-Hindus’ .
After all,when someone dubs your Goddess or God as ‘satan’ , why would that someone deserve to benefit from that very ‘God’ and ‘Goddess’s mercy’ ?
Ponder.
Begin a movement.
Call it -‘Rashtriya Sampathi Bachawo Andolan ‘ or call it -‘ Hindu Jagruti Abhiyaan ‘ but do it- without further slumber or much ado.
This is the way to reawaken the most ancient culture of the planet. Not to air dash to land of Adi Shankara and announce more apps to non-Hindus and those that spew venom at Hinduism.
Galvanise your aged,senile leaders to pen the third eye of democratic structures and restructure Indian Nation.
Rewrite laws. Reknit the land. Reunite the population.
After all a non-Hindu uttering ‘Jai Hindu’ is halfway to shouting -‘ Jai Hindustan’.
One does not become a Hindu by turning a blind eye to the daily shrill screams of millions of cattle sacrificed by greedy pot-bellied non-Hindus ringing across walls of hospitals and schools five times a day. Nor do you become a Hindu by forwarding tiny posters of dead and gone ambassadors of Hinduism or sharing photographs of the myriad forms and avatars of Gods and Goddesses.
The real traitors of Hinduism are the hypocrites who swear by Hinduism but continue to let those who swear at Humanism become their bed-partners in politics and real life situations.
It is not a fabrication of history to note that the guru of asuras had gone westwards to set up a parallel clan away from Devabhoomi-Bharatvarsh.
Hinduism must begin by demanding their ‘nationalist’ leaderships to direct the setting up of distinct donation-boxes at all temples -‘ for well-being of Hindus’ and ‘for welfare of non-Hindus’. Such a segregation of charitable acts would but help imbibe a sense of awareness among the ‘blind believers’.
The Third-Eye must open up!
