Secularism Is A Weapon To Control Hindus

A dictator controls majority by brain washing, disinformation and force. An incompetent democratically elected politician controls the majority by using the same tricks except force. He uses guilt and shame. Those of us who are not blind, can see that in India on a daily basis. In India, the education system takes care of the disinformation by hiding painful history in the name of protecting the minorities. The same Macaulayite education system assisted by the media has been used by the various Congress administrations in the same vein as the British – to keep India divided so they can rule it. This is where the guilt and shame part comes in. The Hindus in India have been subjected to a warped idea of secularism which makes us feel guilty and ashamed of our own identity. In short, secularism has become a weapon in the hands of Congress and other leftist liberals and assorted regional parties who do not know the meaning of the word. Tavleen Singh raises a very valid point in her article. This is what she says about the word secular:


It is a foreign word that evolved in a European context when the powers of the church and the state were separated. In India, since none of our religions were led by pontiffs who controlled armies, or had vast temporal powers, we had no need to make this separation. But, the word secularism is used in India more than almost any other country. Why?


Clearly secularism was a trick used by the wily Brits and almost criminalized by the Congress and others to control the Hindu majority. It has become so bad that the moment someone starts to talk of Hindu nationalism, they are branded communal or worse. The “Bhura Sahib wannabe” middle class Hindus who are so label conscious that they get bullied into accepting the liberal brand of secularism without questioning the validity of the term. Thanks to the leftists and liberals, the word Hindu has now become a “gaali”. People behave against their core beliefs and behave “open minded” and “secular” to avoid being mocked. In fact, the surrender of the Hindus to the secular brigade is so complete that one has to wonder if, as a society, we are suffering from a Societal Stockholm Syndrome (SSS). Here is what Wikipedia says about Stockholm Syndrome:


In psychology, Stockholm syndrome is a psychological phenomenon in which hostages express empathy and have positive feelings towards their captors, sometimes to the point of defending them. These feelings are generally considered irrational in light of the danger or risk endured by the victims, who essentially mistake a lack of abuse from their captors for an act of kindness.


It has already been established that a society can also suffer from this syndrome when faced with an onslaught of oppression by a group or an ideology or an oppressive environment in general. Our history tells us that Hindus are very passive people and accept anything as fate. Our psyche is not confrontational in nature. Our desire to join the elitists (read English speaking glitterati) and subservient nature has removed any resolve to stand up to the incessant bullying by the secular brigade. In fact most of the Indian middle class will now defend the very secular brigade even though doing so is against their own interests and nature. If that is not SSS, I don’t know what it is.


The Muslim mobs roasted the Kar sevaks alive did a huge favor to the secular brigade. Because the riots that followed saw more than 1400 dead muslims. What has always been ignored is the fact that more than 700 Hindus also died in those riots. No one also raises the original crime because the killings were done by Muslims. Why is that? It is because that way, the secular brigade ably assisted by the media and the leftist NGOs can keep the Hindu conservative on his or her backfoot and keep the middle of the road Hindus feeling guilty. All in all a perfect weapon for the secular brigade to control Hindus and keep their agenda alive and well. They have used this weapon to keep the most able leader in India down and have used every dirty trick in the book against him. It is a testament to Bhai Narendra Modi’s focus that he has marched on, undeterred, ignoring the hysterical liberal crowd and converted Gujarat into an economic juggernaut in the process. Now that he has rightly staked a claim for the top job, We are seeing the irrelevant term “secular” being thrown around by foes and some friends.


The Hindu middle class needs to grow a spine and stand up to the secular brigade and tell them off. We need to educate ourselves and make ourselves aware of what is it that makes us tick as people, society and a nation. When they think deeply about it, they will realize that it is a combination of our religion and culture (which in turn borrows heavily from our religion) that makes us who we are. When that realization sinks in then we will get the courage to stand up to these pseudo secular bullies.
