I hope most of us agree that corruption and lack of integrity is a common factor in all political parties and politicians though the degree of indulgence could vary significantly. I am also sure that problems like poverty and lack of amenities will also be in place for perpetuity. There could be some degree of difference between parties but it will be insignificant to make a difference on the ground. Many Hindus are also acutely aware that the media, NGOs, political parties have a bias against Hindus despite the country being hindu majority and despite the fact that we ought to be secular. I wish all such Hindus to consider: A) FORM A VOTE BANK THAT CANNOT BE IGNORED BY GOING OUT AND VOTING; B) SUPPORT HINDU BUSINESSES ONLY; C) NEVER CONTRIBUTE ANYTHING IN A TEMPLE MANAGED BY THE GOVT; D) VISIT YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD TEMPLES AS FREQUENTLY AS POSSIBLE; E) PUT IN YOUR BEST EFFORTS TO CONVINCE OTHER HINDUS WHO HAVE BEEN SO INDOCTRINATED THAT THE P-SECULARISM PRACTICED BY OUR POLITICAL PARTIES IS NOT SECULARISM EVEN IN THE REMOTEST WAY; THIS MAY BE DIFFICULT BUT ATTEMPTING THAT WILL NOT HARM; (No need to be against other religions)

My point is more social than religion; I remember Lord Krishna proclaimed that He will appear whenever the evil rises. But, I think nobody can dispute the fact that the evil today is several times more than what was in the days of Mahabharatha. Still the Lord has not come. So I am slowly loosing faith in god. BUT, I WISH NOBODY SHOULD SURRENDER THEIR JUST RIGHTS AT THE THREAT OF A SWORD; IT IS SIMPLY NOT ACCEPTABLE IF WE ARE ASKED TO SURRENDER OUR INDEPENDENCE AND FREEDOM WHATEVER MAY BE THE COST OR REWARD AT STAKE.

all religions are meaningless and absurd. i mean seriously, some one born out of virgin, someone who stepped on a black stone and went to sky from mecca, all ridiculous items with 4 heads, 5 hands and what not. read darwins book on evolution and stephen hawkins book on big bang theory and try to reason and think about how the universe was created. recently they found albert einstein's article on how religion is something to cover human weaknesses. enjoy the power of science and math. this will reduce ill and hatred in society, bring more common sense and let us all spend more time and resources in uncovering more mysteries abotu nature and universe. dont waste time, money and blood pressure behind religious things.

I do not about my own scriptures as much as I ought to know. I never said anything against islam as what i know about it is superficial. I am only pained at the fact that there is trouble EVERY WHERE IN THE WORLD WHERE MUSLIMS HAVE A SIZEABLE PERCENTAGE. If there is nothing wrong in Islam, then there should be something wrong with those who are practicing it. Hope you will agree with me.
