Its easily said! But when the statements are made without knowledge of the WHOLE , as regards what is in hinduism or in brahminism, what were the situations in the past 1000 years, OR is it a total misconception ,it is a sad 'one eyed deer' debate! 1)If a boss is unscrupulos and tortures, is the boss bad or system of service bad? 2)If the results of a democratic government is useless, is democracy bad or the politicians are bad? 3)If a doctor mishandles a patient to death, is the medical science bad or the doctor is bad? 4)If a lawyer looses the case due to ignorance, is the law bad or the lawyer is bad? Friends! study 'hinduism'and 'brahminism'as a part of 'hinduism' study the situations and environments what prevailed under muslim and british rules, also study what wasthe activities of men of positions during those periods , specially those during british periods to gain favours, and how the well functioning system was choked to suffocations by the cunning and selfintersted british, all doubts will go! Till then, all such debated are based on half or little knowledge!

RY You have raised very valid questions, they are for those who are willing to study. What about those who want a place in every pie, without doing any serious study.
Such a study will help remove reactionary tendency.
On my side I am proposing a practical side,i.e
1) Work hard in present and build a future. NO ONE CAN CHNGE PAST.
Recently I spent 2 months in West Indies. Trinidad has 1.4 Million population,They have people of India and Africa. Indians were brought in Shacles. They were slaves and worked in Sugar cane farms. Right now Indian community is very strong, rich, perhaps every one in family has car. So are Africans Trinadians. None of them are complaining about past or hunting for English people. Rather British Gas and British petroleum are to main oil producing companies. Economy is booming. All Indians are well educated.
It seems in India , people wants protection.
Where as It is known fact that protectionism is a recipe for disaster, and anything protected ( human or Bussines) can never flourish.

Indian hindus (I mean true hindus, not the fake ones)live for a reason different from others! This life they take as a 'blessing ' of GOD! It is meant for 'aradhana' though livelihood is a need too! Shastras of SASANATAN DHARMA have advised how to lead a humble life with full attention towards others'(even animals or trees or anything)goof! No quarrels! no jealousy! no fighting! But when one acts as enemy , trying to destroy the peace or the wealth for sustaining life, or his men and wife, the INTRUDER mey be treated accorfingly(even by killing) The king is appointed personality for foing wrong things straight! Alas!the state of India ignores HINDUS FIRST! WHY? IS THAT SECULARISM? The priblem is not of reservation as it is the ANTI HINDU ATTITUDES OF THE CONGRESS, COMMUNIST, RJD, SP , BSP AND ALL! THEY DONT KNOW THEYBARE IMMORAL LOT!OR KNOWING IT THEY ARE LIKE THAT! LET THE REAL HINDUS UNITE AND SEE THE EFFECTS! Without dharma life is just as an animal lives! I appreciate your vision about forgetting the past, BUT IF THE FUTURE IS MADE DHARMIC WAY!
