Auragazeb was great
by Joseph on Feb 22, 2007 01:34 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

Aurangzeb was a great man. At least better than the Modis and Gautiers who spread the venom of hatred and violence in the modern age. Aurangazeb lived in the barabric age. so he should be measured by the standards of the barbaric age.

What about our modern day aurangazebs? Why did he write an inflammatory article about a hisorical person, whose history is well known?

The age Aurangzeb lived in was barbaric because of his bigotry and tyranny, the reverberations are still being felt today. That should tell you something about the madness of the man and his ideology.

The ideals of the age that preceded Aurangzeb, in fact I would go so far and say, before the arrival of Islam on our shores there existed a far less barbaric age. Amply borne out by evidence from Ashokas edicts, you are well advised to read them before making bombastic and false claims. Further, closer to Aurangzebs time, approx. 150 years earlier, Guru Nanak's teachings give lie to your assertion.

I disagree. And BTW you said 'Aurangazeb lived in the barabric age'. You fail to understand that India had a golden age prior to this. Maybe Aurangzeb contributed to this barbarism that existed in that age like you said. As far as Modi goes, I think his is the only state that has a double digit growth and the higest per capita income. I think he is great!!!

Rightly said. Whats the difference between Aurangzeb and the CM of Gujarat, Narendra Modi in terms of being destructive? At least the former is known to have a good taste for art, unlike the latter who just knows the taste of being in power (at any cost)

You need to fix your mind first before commenting. Clear your concept. You family is not bad till you practice evil and destroy the values of family. So..... Clear your concept man.
