Very interesting and insightful article. But, it is a fallacy to say that the west has "absolute morals". In fact the western civilization has done far worse things - crusades, slavery, genocide - all under the guise of moral principles. All religions except hinduism has persecuted and decimated followers of other religions. Only hinduism states explicitly - all paths lead to salvation; let all prosper. This attitude was OK when hindus' very existence was not threatened. But now, the abrahamic religions abuse hinduism and want to destroy it. hence it is essential to act for self preservation.
