Prashant, Why are you denigrating Hindu culture? What is your point? And where do you live? Do you not see the reality in India. Our Hindu dharma is threatened thanks to our politicians and semi-literate population. Every ancient culture be it christian, Greek, Hindu, or islamic had a few weird practises. Why can't we absorb the best and ignore the rest? I have been reading Rajeev's columns regularly and it is my observation that he cares deeply about India, its history, its potential and the problems it is facing today. Read, understand, think, and then speak Prashant. It is we who need to protect our country and take pride in our culture. Finally, I would not be so naive as to accept and defend the western media's portrayal of our culture.
