APPEAL TO THE INDIAN MUSLIMS:
SHOULD YOU GO FOR THE NATIVE FRAGRANT ROSE, OR THE SMELLY THORNY CACTUS FROM ARABIA?
WHICH CAR WILL YOU BUY IF GIVEN A CHOICE? THE ONE MADE IN JAPAN OR GERMANY, OR THE ONE MADE IN ARABIA?
WHERE WILL YOU RATHER BE? ON THE BEACH, IN THE MOUNTAINS, OR IN THE DESERT?
SO, WHY, O' WHY, DO YOU LOVE ALIEN ISLAM THAT INSPIRED SEPARATION AND PARTITION, WHEN YOU CAN EASILY LOVE ANY OTHER FAITH ON EARTH? AND WHAT IS SO TERRIBLY WRONG WITH YOUR OWN NATIVE MOTHERS THAT YOU CALL THE ONE FROM ITALY YOUR "MOTHER OF NATION"?
IF YOU EXPECT AN ARAB TO PROFESS ISLAM, WHY SHOULD WE SEE IN INDIA, OUR LAND OF MANY MESSENGERS, ANYONE CARRYING THE PLACARD, "MY ISLAM IS SUPERIOR TO YOUR HINDU AND SIKH FAITHS."?
IF THEY DON'T ACCEPT A TEMPLE OR A GURWARA IN ARABIA, SHOULD YOU NOT RAZE THE MOSQUES IN INDIA TO GROUND IN PROTEST, OR AS A TOKEN OF EMPATHY WITH YOUR OWN FELLOW CITIZENS?
WHAT THE NATIVES, LONG SUPPRESSED, CRUSHED AND BRAINWASHED IN SLAVERY, OUGHT TO DO NOW IS TO THINK, THINK AND THINK, TO REMOVE THE UGLY SORES ON THE BODY OF THEIR OWN RELIGIONS.
WHAT ARE THE UGLY SORES ON THE HINDU BODY?
CASTE SYSTEM, THE SYSTEM OF DOWRY, THE PRACTICE OF INFANTICIDE AND CHILD MARRIAGE, OVER WHICH THE NON HINDUS LAUGH, OR HAVE PLENTY TO WRITE ABOUT.
THE AFFLICTIONS ARE NOT GODSEND. THEY CAN BE REMOVED BY HUMANS. SO DO IT NOW.
WHAT IS SO WRONG WITH THE SIKHS?
THE SUMBOLS, WHICH ARE ACTING AS A REPELLENT AND A DETERRENT TO THE REST OF MANKIND.
IT IS THE SYMBOLS THAT ARE KEEPING MILLIONS OUT OF SIKH FOLD EVEN IN INDIA, THE LAND OF ITS BIRTH. NONE SEEMS TO BE PERTURBED OVER THE STALEMATE, OVE THE DOLDRUMS. THERE IS NO INTELLECTUAL BREAK THROUGH, NO INITIATIVE ON THE PART OF THE SIKHS. FOR MOST OF THEM THE SIKH RELIGION IS CONFINED TO FIVE SYMBOLS, "AKHAND PATHS", "LANGAR" AND "NISHKAM SEWA". TO MOST SIKHS, THAT IS ALL.
WHAT IS WRONG IN LIFTING THE CLAMP FROM THE ORDINARY HUMANS WHO WOULD LOVE TO EMBRACE SIKHI WITHOUT SYMBOLS? WHY NOT MAKE THEM MANDATORY FOR THE SIKH PRIESTS ONLY?
IF WE LOOK AROUND, MANY SIKHS, ESPECIALY THE YOUNG, ARE DISCARDING THESE SYMBOLS. SOME ARE EMBARRASSING EVEN TO MENTION IN THIS ENLIGHTENED AGE WHERE EDUCATION AND PERSONAL HYGIENCE AND CODE OF MORALITY DO NOT DEPEND ON A "KACHCHA" (UNDERWEAR).
WHAT STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT DO SYMBOLS LIKE A COMB AND UNDERWEAR DEMONSTRATE? WHY NOT "DUMP" THE LOT AND GO FOR "KAKKA" ("K") FOR "KOMPUTERS"? THAT GOES FOR THE IGNORANT, INTIMIDATED HINDUS, TOO. IT IS RIDICULOUS TO FIND SO MUCH RESISTANCE TO SUCH IDEAS ON THE PART OF THE SIKH LEADERSHIP AND ORGANISATIONS.
ONCE AGAIN THESE SYMBOLS, WHICH ACT AS A BRAKE ON SIKH EXPANSION, ARE MAN MADE AND CAN BE DONE AWAY WITH BY HUMANS. GOD IS NOT INTERESTED IN THEM, NOR DOES NIRVANA DEPEND ON THESE. AT BEST THESE SYMBOLS CAN BE LEFT TO THE INDIVIDUALS THEMSELVES. THEY ARE NOT SO INFANTILE NOW AS IN THE CENTURIES GONE BY.
THERE ARE NO TERRIBLE TALIBAN (THE HATED MOGULS) AROUND TO COPY THEM WITH REGARD TO "APPEARANCE" OF A MODERN SIKH.
BUT WILL THE "DULL AND THE DUFFER" RISE UP TO THE CHALLENGE? NOT LIKELY, CONSIDERING THAT THEY HAVE YET TO LOOK BACK AT PARTITION THAT CAUSED THEIR MASS EXODUS FROM WEST PUNJAB.
SYMBOLS WERE OF NO HELP TO THE SIKHS IN 1947 WHEN THEY WERE EXTERMINATED THROUGHOUT WEST PUNJAB BY THOSE WHO HAD NONE OF THEM BUT A LOT OF SPIRIT.
ISN'T THAT WHAT GURU GOBIND SINGH JI TRIED TO INFUSE AMONG THE DOWNTRODDEN HINDUS, BEING FORCED TO PAY THE JEZIA TAX, HAND OVER THE NEWLY WED BRIDE TO THE LOCAL MUSLIM GOVERNOR, AND BEING CONVERTED BY FORCE IN KASHMRI AND ELSEWHERE?
THE FACT IS THAT LORD RAMA, LORD KRISHNA AND GURU NANAK ARE NATIVE TO THE SOIL OF INDIA. MOHAMMED IS MOST CERTAINLY NOT.
MOHAMMED WAS THE PROMISE OF THE BREAK UP OF UNITED INDIA IN 1947, AND HE STILL REMAINS DNAGEROUSLY POISED OVERHEAD TO UNLEASH A BLOODY CIVIL WAR TO FINALLY "SETTLE" THE ONGOING SIMMERING KASHMIR DISPUTE.
SO, IF THEY DON'T ACCEPT A TEMPLE OR A GURDWARA IN ARABIA, ISN'T IT TIME TO CLOSE AND SHUT ALL THE MOSQUES IN BHARAT?
WHAT THE NATIVES OUGHT TO DO IS TO IMPROVE THE IMAGE OF THEIR OWN RELIGIONS. WHAT'S SO PAINFUL FOR THE HINDUS TO REMOVE CASTE SYSTEM? WHAT IS SO SINFUL FOR THE SIHKS TO PUT SPIRIT ABOVE SYMBOLS?
Indian Muslims, where will you rather sit? Next to a spiritual CESSPIT with historic background of invasions, murders, rape, plunder, destruction of others' places of worship and PARTITOJN, or in a garden radiating the fragrance of universal love and peace on earth, with no connection to invasions, forcible conversions and bloody conquests.?
Indian Muslims, make up your minds. Shed Islam. BE PROUD INDIANS.
