Maanoj Rakhit (written 2005 Nov 10)

(Extracts from ISBN 81-89746-13-8)

You have been reading about illegal migration from BanglaDesh. First stop thinking of them as BanglaDeshis. Nationality is of no consequence.

If you have read my other publications you would have known why I keep cautioning you not to think in terms of nationalities or continentality like British, German, European, American, etc. These descriptions are very deceptive. They do not allow you to look beyond certain boundaries. Your vision does not penetrate beyond those barriers. You miss to identify the true culprit. The true driving force behind all their conducts remains hidden behind masks created by those images that you carry in your mind when you think of people as British, German, BanglaDeshi, Pakistani, and so on. This is particularly true in today's context.

First thing you must realize that there is no point evaluating human conduct without a proper and adequate understanding of the religion which shapes their thought process. Therefore I invite you to read at least the chapter on Islam in Judaism Christianity Islam Secularism Hinduism (Seed 4 ISBN 978-81-89990-17-6). It brings you face to face with those core teachings of Qur'an that help build the attitude of a common Muslim towards the Hindus. One thing you must know that Muslims are much more attached to their religion, as compared to we Hindus, and they read Qur'an more regularly than we read Raamaayan or BhagavadGita. We have many books on religion and not all Hindus read the same book but as for Muslims they have only two books: one Qur'an and the other HadIs (which describe in great detail the real-life conducts of Prophet Muhammad). Muslims read those two books again and again, over and again, so much that what is written there becomes their second nature but that nature remains hidden under the mask of polite face so long they are not in sufficient number to reveal their hidden character.

Do not get swayed by those lovely movies that portray one Muslim saving the life of a Hindu. Those instances, wherever true, are exceptions. What you need to realize is that such exceptions well treated by a crafty director can make a good story line and moving theme which will move Hindus but not the Muslims because Qur'an and HadIs that they read regularly tells them the opposite every day. Beware of such deceptive literature and media exposures and please do not take them seriously. Instead, look at their conducts that are documented by limited few, while deliberately kept under the lid by the most.

You keep reading about what is happening in Kashmir these days. I need not repeat all that here. Though you hardly come to know what has truly been happening there. The reason is simple. The English language media which controls and distributes news is anti-Hindu. Why it is anti-Hindu that I have discussed in adequate depth in my other works.

The information, that I shall present you here, is based on certain regional language newspapers from BanglaDesh. Their names are Ekota (meaning unity), Aazker Kaagoz (meaning today's newspaper), Bhorer Kaagoz (meaning early morning newspaper) and Glaani (The Disgrace). Besides these, there are three other publications (1) Communal Persecution and Repression in BanglaDesh (2) Communal Discrimination in BanglaDesh: Facts and Documents (3) Parishad Barta.

The information from these sources have been culled out by Taslima Nasrin and presented in Lajja (meaning shame) with the following statement to their authenticity in its Preface:

"I have also included in the text numerous incidents, actual historical events, facts and statistics. I have verified those to the best of my ability; my sources of information include Ekota, Aazker Kaagoz, Bhorer Kaagoz and Glaani (The Disgrace), "Communal Persecution and Repression in BanglaDesh", "Communal Discrimination in BanglaDesh: Facts and Documents" and "Parishad Barta". Taslima Nasrin March 1994.

Lajja has been published by Penguin Books in BhaaratVarsh. I am ignoring the story, the fiction part of this book. I am also ignoring the views of Taslima Nasrin on the subject. I am reproducing only the documented facts which she has presented as quoted text. Those facts are the premise on which I am building up my theme.

My theme revolves around one single message. That is: These things have happened now because Qur'an and HadIs teach Muslims again and again, over and again, that they must destroy Hindus -- who worship idols and have not converted them into Islam. HadIs contain documentation of real life conducts of Prophet Muhammad which have become Law for the Muslims to follow in all ages. These things had happened in the past for the same reason that I have brought to your attention through my other works duly supported by documented evidences. These things will continue to happen in the future for the same reason as has happened in the past and as has been happening in the present times.

1979 February 8

Location

Village Sabahaw ~ subdistrict Daoudkandhi ~ district Comilla ~ country BanglaDesh.

Events

• at least four hundred Muslims, from neighbouring villages, together attacked a group of Hindu sages who were living there

• they had yelled as they swept down on the sages: The government has declared Islam as the national religion. So, if you wish to stay in a Islamic state you must become Muslims, and if you don't then it will be best for you to leave this country

• the holy men had looked on helplessly as their homes were looted and their temples were destroyed

• many of them were captured and taken away and some hadn't returned to this day

• the women were brutally raped and tortured, and some of the people who were attacked never recovered completely

Think

It was 8 December 1992, that is, 13 years and 10 months later. People who had been captured and taken away had not returned yet. Women brutally raped and tortured had not recovered from the trauma yet. What would have been the intensity of brute torture?

You were not there. Your families were not there. If you had been there what would you have done? Rather, what could you have done?

Do you remember the role of BhaaratVarsh in getting BanglaDesh liberated from Pakistan? I do. Bhaaratiya Jawaans fought and gave their life to get them liberated. Most of these men from BhaaratVarsh were Hindus who shed their blood for liberation of BanglaDesh.

Before liberation Pakistani army Jawaans used to come to BanglaDesh and rape their women. At that time Punjaabi Muslims from West Pakistan raped Bengali Hindus and Bengali Muslims. For them West Pakistan owned East Pakistan. Therefore, East Pakistani women, whether Hindu or Muslim, were their property.

For liberation Bengali Hindus of East Pakistan shed their blood so that they could be liberated from the tortures of West Pakistani Muslims. They thought that after liberation all will be Bengali. So it will no more be a case Punjaabis raping Bengalis. Once the power comes to the hands of the Bengalis they will be free and safe. Were they?

What failed them? The utopian theory that: 'first they are Bengali' and then 'they are either Hindu, or Muslim'. They did not know that a 'Muslim is first a Muslim', and then 'anything else'.

Anywhere in the world it is the same. They are first Muslim and then they are British or American or Canadian or Bhaaratiya or BanglaDeshi or Pakistani or Saudi or French or German.

Earlier days Muslims were more honest about admitting this openly. Now days they fear harassment from American, British, French, Italians, if they live in those countries. Therefore, they have learned the trick to say openly only what would be acceptable to the people of those countries because yet they are in minority. Remember the word 'yet'. They are working hard at multiplying there as well, so that they can gradually gain control. France has become wary of growing Islamization of France.

It is only in BhaaratVarsh that Muslims do not face the kind of harassment they started facing from the ChristianWorld. Hindus have long been put in a state of coma. ChristianBritish, ChristianizedHindus and Hindu preachers have made their respective contribution towards this. They have done it in their own respective ways. I have discussed those things in detail in two of my earlier works titled as Arise Arjun - Awaken my Hindu Nation and Do your History textbooks tell you these facts? You may want to refer to them about the role played by the ChristianBritish, their ChristianizedHindu stooges and the MarxistCommunist who wore the mask of a Secularist.

Let us return to the events of 8 February 1979. The holy men had looked on helplessly as their homes were looted and their temples were destroyed. What else could they have done? They are the holy men of Sanaatan Dharm Hinduism. Do they truly remember what Sanaatan Dharm practiced?

Let us go back into the history. I am starting here where I left in my earlier work titled These documented results of 4 Varn system can make you proud of your Hindu heritage.

Every man would not become a Sannyaasi (the renunciant). Those few who take to Sannyaas will do so during the last quarter of their life. Before that they would have gone through three more stages of life, in each quarter of their life. This would have made them more of a complete man: A man who has experienced all facets of life, one who has understood the significance of each stage in life through personal experience. Such a person would have taught the society what all it needs.

His vision would not have been limited by real life experience as a Sannyaasi alone. He would not be teaching the masses based on what he heard or read or thought about those aspects of life, which he himself did not live through.

He would have taught them based on what he had personally been through in life. He would never forget that the life itself is a battle ground of its own kind. He would not have run away from such a battle ground. Nor would he have been a meek spectator. He had not renounced life and he would have known the demands of life first hand.

With prince Siddhaarth of KapilVastu all that changed. He took a shortcut to the demands of life. He quit life half way through and became a Sannyaasi. There was novelty in his approach (though not in concept as he him self admitted). It had its unique appeal to many. From this time on, Sannyaas became institutionalized. It no more remained a personal matter of an individual. With the followers of the Jewish shepherd Jesus of Nazareth the process gained further momentum. Institutionalization of Sannyaas became the norm. Today Hindu Sannyaasis are following their footprints by adopting institutionalized Sannyaas.

Sanaatan Dharm had a specific role for the Sannyaasi. His focus was tuned towards one object. He meddled not with the householders. Today the Sannyaasi has become the teacher and guide to the householder. It has become necessary for his living. If he does not gather a brigade of householder followers his institution will collapse.

Exceptions can be found in life almost every where. Exceptions can be found among institutionalized Sannyaasis too. But they are relatively few and far between. They are doing good work towards awakening the masses. They are silent workers because the time has not yet come for them to come out openly. They have to wait for a very dynamic leadership to emerge who can sway the masses.

The fire of Kshatriya spirit has to be kindled among the masses. No society is complete without well defined roles. Braahmans, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas and Shoodrs all have their roles cut out for them. They all complement each other. Together they make a colossal mass, which stands on its own.
