The article truly analyzes the present scenario in the country. Every word is worth it's weight in gold. I am glad a foreigner is able to understand this country, its culture and the ethos so minutely and could express it so touchingly. His concern reflects mine and millions of fellow Hindus. You have echoed my heartbeat friend - truly. Those who reacted angrily and offensively to this article are the true betrayers of Hinduism. They are opportunists who are afraid that writings like these may awaken Hindus against the situation and are worried about a slowing down of the process of proseletyzation which is in overdrive eversince the pope visited this country during the reign of BJP and given an open call to convert India and Asia in his 'Ecclesia in Asia'. They are worried about a reaction from the Hindus. I feel such a reaction is slowly taking shape - not from opportunist political parties like BJP or movements like VHP(which have done the most harm to the spirit of Hinduism by the demolition of the sacred Babri Masjid), but from the common hindu. Ordinary Hindus are waking up, grouping together and are trying to find a way and a direction. Let us only hope it will be peaceful
