GANDHI JAYANTI IRRELEVANT.

Gandhi Jayanti Irrelevant.


Tomorrow 2nd October is Gandhi Jayanti. To mark this day India declared tomorrow as holiday. This shows the importance India and Indians give to Gandhiji even after his 139th birthday. Is Gandhiji having relevance anymore and are his teachings and principles viable now in the current turmoil we are facing in India? I think not and I think his teachings have no value and relevance anymore. This end to his teachings came not only immediately after his death but soon after the independence of India when he was put behind the curtains by the very Congressmen headed by his right hand man Nehru after gaining all the benefits from his frail self and mighty intelligence. We have discarded his teachings and embraced the teachings and principles of Hitler, Mussolini, Saddam Hussein and devil. That we rejected his teachings are known from the fact that Gandhi’s own co-religionists have disgraced their own religion and Gandhism in India and embraced Criminalism. The attacks on innocent and peace loving Christians in India by the Hindu fanatics is a great slap on the principles of Gandhiji. On 2nd October we as traitors will be paying lip service to the sacrifices and principles of Gandhiji by showering eulogy on him. But is it important to praise Gandhiji without imbibing his principles of non-violence?

By killing innocent Christians, why innocents only, by killing and destroying others, Hindu fanatics are doing disservice to Gandhiji and for all the sacrifices he made for the cause of India and Indians. Indians are not only Hindus. Other religious communities in India are also Indians and Indian Christians are very much a part of India. I am surprised how overwhelming majority of Hindus is keeping their silence over the atrocities committed on their Indian Christian brothers and sisters. Non–violence is the major principle of Hinduism and making its use Gandhiji shook the British Empire into surrender. I cannot understand how my Hindu brothers are accepting the modus operandi in violence of killing Christians in India by their fellow Hindus! When I observe their silence I feel they accept the butchery of Christians by the Hindu fanatics.

Gandhiji always supported the weaker section and minorities. He once said in one of his writings that "the society that ill treats its weaker segment is a sick society". This sick society is the Hindu fanatic society which requires medical treatment. The Government of India under Dr. Sing and Sonia Gandhi is a weak Government. There will be under this Government more threats for Christians because Hindu fanatics have already noticed the weakness in our Government at the Centre and in the States. We must spit at the Government officials and Ministers when they make eulogy of Gandhiji’s principles on 2nd October. They have no right to talk in praise of Gandhiji. They have killed Gandhiji’s principles by allowing Hindu fanatics to kill and destroy Christians in India. We must not attend Gandhi Jayanti functions where these people are going to preside. We must tell them loudly and openly that “STOP CELEBRATING GANDHI JAYANTI BECAUSE YOU ARE TRAITORS WHILE GANDHIJI IS NOT. YOU ARE TOO SMALL TO TALK ON GANDHIJI WHO WAS TOO BIG FOR YOU. YOU ARE NOT WORTHY TO TAKE THE NAME OF GANDHIJI ON YOUR UNWORTHY TONGUE”.

Those in the Central Government and in the State Governments who are guilty of allowing atrocities against Christians will be making a mockery of Gandhiji if they celebrate Gandhi Jayanti on 2nd October i.e. tomorrow. They are not worthy of Gandhiji.

SUB: ATROCIOUS ATTACKS ON THE CHRISTIAN MINORITY

India wakes up every day to the news that Radical Hindu Extremists areattacking peace loving Christian minority based in India with thepretext that they are forcibly converting them to Christianity. Even of the attack on a Swami Despite knowing that it was a maoist groupthat claimed responsibility. One cant term this just as attacks orprotests but one of the worst pathetic invasion against the practicesof the Christian faith. Hurting scenes were seen across all majorNewspapers and I would like to also point at how late the TV mediacovered the subjects. In what is termed as the worst one could everimagine the Extremists Hindus commit; Churches were burnt, ChristianPlay schools, Schools and Colleges were destroyed Priests and Nuns publicly desecrated in ways one could never imagine, the Holy figuresand Images of the Savior Jesus Christ, Virgin Mary and the number of Saints that the Christian Faithful honour were seen strewn across thefloor, the Crucifix and Idols disfigured. On top of that many of the faithful were beaten up, burnt brutally and tortured at places evenforcing the people to flee for the jungles or to relief camps. Somewere even made to convert to Hindus.

What is the meaning of all this?Isn't this supposed to be India, the country where our FreedomStruggle took place where numerous Indians gave their life up for thesake of a better India. Indian constitution have gifted the 'INDIANS'rights. The rights that would deliver India into better citizens wherea citizen could choose to make decision favourable according to him orher without any external force. I have seen many Christians convert to Hindus and Muslims, so would that mean that the affected should go and destroy India and its constitution? I say India because this countryis made up of all religion, languages and people irrespective of casteor creed. Retaliation took place in such a way that a lot of peoplewere killed, harmed even to the extent of poisoning water at reliefcamps, attacking a pregnant woman, police brutality. No this is not right, no one has the right to harm, attack or murder another. This isthe basics of all Religion whatever it may be.

The types of attacks on the Christian faith were so brutal that many TV news channels could not even air it due to very graphical scenes.Remember people that it was those very nuns that helped India during times of hardships specially famines, plagues and other medicalcatastrophes. These missionaries have started schools dedicated tosaints so as to educate the few that cannot afford it in India. Children of different faith were always treated equally in suchschools. Peace and Equality were the mottos practiced in theseorganizations. So many hospitals, clinics, medical camps, blooddonation drives, and awareness were spread by them so as to rescuethose that needed it the most. When there are floods, famines andnational calamities; various Sisters and Nuns were always there totend to the needy. There was even news that in the recent flooding in Bihar and Orissa many Christian Organizations helped those that needed serious medical attention and also medical relief and food supplies. It would be great if there were the other organizations to help out inthese matters, but instead of supporting the cause they attack the few that sacrifice their services for others. Indeed this is not the India that our past leaders would want to see. This type of communalism is not needed at this stage. And in case the government has not noticed Christians in the country are suffering and they are made to think that Article 355 or 356 will help them.

Lives are gone unnecessarily and still more are in hiding, there is a lot more that is needed to bedone if this is to be prevented in the future. What are the states of Orissa, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh and many others going to do about the destruction and loss caused to the Christian Faith? India still has a long way to go from a developing nation. People are suffering because of diseases, poverty, starvation, lack of housing and are indesperate need of such resources. We should change our focus toeradicate these things and not add further sufferings and pain byadding fuel to fire in such communal atrocities that will only shame India further.

SUBJECT: "DEVINE PUNISHMENT FOR CHRISTIAN HATERS.":

Its a article to be pondered on Mr Veronica, indeed its like rose water for those who are blinded with sore eyes. Prayer is the call as of this time more so that we can avoid such type of communalism and also for the many innocent people of Orissa who are undergoing turmoil for the few that cast these type of calamities on themselves.
