india teaches the meaning of life
by jayakrishna c on May 08, 2007 09:48 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

if you want to learn the meaning of life you need to learn india first and the scriptures produced in this country. indians have to be proud of this becoz it is a global statement.

bharat as a country has always been wonderful. everybody wanted to loot this country, brits did it in the name of business, turks robbed this country for the riches.

india is so ancient tht it has undergone so many rapid changes, some were enforced on it, some came as the time has passed .

we had civilization when people in the western countries were hanging to tress like apes.

this country has seen everything and has everything.

instead of blaming one another for the recent bad past, if we move into the future with the values/ethics that our scriptures had taught us, our future generations will definitely enjoy a very bright future.

Mr. jayakrishnan,
I appreciate your Vision... But one thing that I like to clarify is, before the Invasion of Muslims in India, India was not a single country, but divided into 300 small countries.. All these 300 countries never dwelt in Peace, even in a small state of present Tamilnadu, Pandyas and Cholas are fighting each other..
Today why India is a single country Bcoz, it is governed by Medieval Invaders as One country for 800 years and then taken by British..
If there was no invasion, then still India would have been 300 small countries... Everything is for your good.... Think about it

O IBRAHIM SHEIK
Before ADVOCATING BARBARIC MUSLIM INVADERS......Just Go and Search For Your Identity !!!!!
Whether You are A DESCENDENT Of CONVERTED Hindus or a Descendent of BARBARIC MUSLIM Invaders !!!!!

If You are Descendent of EVIL BLOOD then Continue with Your HATEFUL Teachings of KURAN and TAAREEF of ALLAH and Its FOLLOWERS !!!!!

Also When BRITISHERS THREW OUT Muslim RULERS and UNITED INDIA From Afganistan to BURMA.......Why Were YOUR MUSLIM Kings and MUSLIM Civilians....NOT HAPPY with BRITISH RULE !!!!
If you have ANYTHING in your HEAD Except KURANIC BHOOSA .....You Will UNDERSTAND the PROBLEM of FOREIGN RULE !!!!!

SHAME on You Like People Who Justify the BARBARIC Acts of MUSLIM Invaders !!!!

You should little bit of islamic history a bit.
India became more fragmenteddin muslim rule.
They were many muslim rulers at a any given time,you are under wrong impression that all of india was under one muslim ruler.And by the way they were more bloody wars continues wars in muslim period with different muslim rulers and an between hindu rulers.Dont forget even the relatively considered peaceful mogul rulers like shahjahan was contantely under war nearly 1 war each year!!!Further more they bloody battles or murders within royal families killing 10's of prices.Muslim ruler bruality does not syop there they just did not fight wih the enemies army but also burned fields and houses of enemy citizen and killed thee civilians too.

This practise was of attacking villages ,civilians,crops,slaving females and children was never never practised in India before the muslim envasion.You can read this testamony from not only indian rulere rules but even from outside evidence from greek hisorian,travelers and chinese travels.

ok.. i will agree that there were several kingdoms. however, there is a caveat in your theory! although there was no concept of India, there has been a concept for bharat for long before the earliest Muslim invasions. there is also a basis for what i'm saying.
even though the neighboring kingdoms were vying against each other for farmland and resources, people from villages across borders were still visiting each other and calling each other brothers. there would be weddings across borders, and on occasion when the wedding was in the family of an important figure of the village, kings from both sides would visit the wedding and give their blessings to the couple!
so you see, the "division" between the people was only political. in reality, you always had a sense of belonging between people across the entire country!
as for "our own good", i think we as indians should start thinking in terms of developing the country, not our religions! if there is something in our religion that is hampering the progress of our Nation, we should change it. i don't mean to be offensive, but i think the days when it was wise to "reproduce and proliferate" are gone. it's more prudent to control our population for the sake of our country and its people. would you be strong enough to make a statement saying "I will accept birth control measures. I shall not be detrimental to my country's development and vow not to produce more than 2 children!"? If yes, then you would be patriotic..
