In recent years the emphasis on the worship of Ram has been politically motivated. The VHP and its allies have been working overtime to forge a national and international unity amongst those it defines as Hindus. Without unification there can be no awakening of the public face of the Hindu spirit and, ergo, no political power for the BJP.
Now how do you go about uniting the Hindus? In one area of the country there is the worship of Ayyappa, in another the regning deity is Venkateswara and in a third it is Jagannath. All of them are gods and all will help their devotees attain salvation. Enter, the BJP. In recent times we have witnessed two simultaneous developments. To start with, the votaries of Hindutva have set about remoulding and redefining Hinduism.

Only with the efforts of some one to AWAKE the hindus the Nation and the culture will survive and BJP has all the right to work towards this objective. Atleast it is not playing games of money and power to win election.

MANY YEARS BEFORE THE "RAM" NAME USED BY MAHATMA GANDHI. IS IT MEANS THAT HE WAS A POWER HUNGER??? DEFINETLY NOT. THE HINDUS WILL PRAY FOR RAM, KRISHNA, AYYAPA, JAGANNATH, VENKATESHWARA................ETC. EVEN AFTER PRAYING GOD WITH SEVERAL NAMES THERE ULTIMATE BELIEF IS GOD IS ONE. INSTEAD OF BLAIMING BJP GO AND SEE HOW UR MINORITY LEADERS USING THE RELIGION(MANY TIMES FOR MAKING TERRORISTS).
