by Bhajiya on Apr 14, 2008 03:55 PM

All citation and translation of Ramayana from various work of fiction, Novel, Imaginary tale, creative writing, literature.
Research wing of RSS and Hindu fundamentalist organizations who are spreading myths all over world should not taken as fact because they are doing this business since many decades specially after independence. There is not Hindu religion and Idol worshipers world over cannot be treated as Hindu because in various part of the world since beginning of civilization idol worshiping was trend such as Pyramids in Egypt, Inca and Maya civilizations and African Tribes are idol worshipers do not mean all are Hindu. Similarly in India majority of people worship different idols which are no t matching to the so called popular idol gods because each tribe and sect has their own idol which is worshiped during social rituals such as birth, death, celebrations, marriages, etc they are not these so called mythological idols such as- Shankar, Vishnu, Brahma, Ganesh, and like many identified from the tale of imaginary stories.
The word %u201CHindus%u201D is concept ofspecifically is Brahmin caste from the north India who spread many parts of India like %u201CBhaiyya%u201D being instrument of mobilization of some rituals and idol worshiping and spread of %u201CRamayana Story Telling Art Form, Mahabharata Story Telling Art Form, and then playing drama and classical dancing and musical recital based on this Ramayana and Mahabharat makes this tale more popular.
