Saffronization

Breaking news, Chnadrayaan launched successfully, India becoming hub for Medical Tourism and Delhites performing yagna ( major hindu ritual) to get rid of Kala Bandar. Bang!! Though is a scene of a flop hindi movie but interestingly so true.

Take any of the filmy drama or serials coming in any channels. All will show some religious family with a family Saffron Man. It is interesting to note all these started mostly in last few decades. Why this man becomes so important who takes all worries away?

Well lets take up Babari Masjid Demolition. It is very clear that the Mosque was there for years and i am quite sure no was of the present era was present centuries ago to communicate if there existed a temple there. And please no mythical evidences. People were living peacefully in ayodhya before and after the incident. And if they were not , has the peace increase or decreased in that region? All religions claim ultimate peace and salvation as the aim of human life. So was it done for any such reason. I don't see that being a reason. So who benefited Hindu people, Muslims or someone else.

Again past is past come to a more recent incident . Post godhra riots in Gujraat. The political party in power before remained and actually it didn't need the riots to be in power. The opposition? No way. The government machinery cant be used so effectively by opposition. So again who benefited remains a question.

Rama Sene incident in Mangalore. Well do i need to say anything.

So who is benefiting. I feel its the Saffrons in a split of a second taught comes, isn't it same as the Green Taliban. How is it difference. If we trace the groth of Green , it has been similar. They also masked themselves with some political alignance and what they are today, i dont think it needs any description.

Some people take advantage of these colors may be saffron or green. In India its Saffron and other place its green. They think they are using the saffrons to rise to power but in fact what is happening is Saffrons are using them to their sough after recognitions by everyone. Who doesn't want to remove a Peepal Tree which stands in middle of a busy road which cause unnecessary heavy traffic . But no, the saffrons come spirited up with their soma ras and beat up the people who try to clear.

Some people profess Hinduism is a way of life. Quite possible . But is saffron a part of Hinduism. No way. Never. Some day if some saffron lunatics plan another Malegaon, who the hell can tell its very different from 26/11.

wah wah... maro sab ko.. chorne ka nahin hai.. BTW I can't agree more with the analogy.. down the line 20-30 year I may see this bhagwadhari as a terrorist organization if things doesn't turn the right way.. And I bet if these prophets are doing anything for there religion, they are doing this for there own good and greed without paying heed to innocent life going waste.. #@$%#@

O thou learned one!!!Please throw your enlightened views on the fact that why do one feels compelled to preserve his culture? Does culture gives us sense of identity which we always desperately cling right from childhood? What if someday we do away with the concept of religion? Will it reduce some of the chaos existent in world?
