My Mother's Crown - Kashmir

This is not intended to be a detailed prescription to the Kashmir problem.... but just a small, modest trigger of a thought in the possible direction of an eventual solution. 

The recent nearly week long unprecedented visit by an Israeli Prime Minister Honourable Shri Netanyahu has given seed to many new dimensions in not only Indo-Israel or Indo-Arabic equations but also a new INSPIRATION for other solutions. 

And yes, this wont be liked and welcomed by all......... But then ..... Have germs and viruses ever welcomed MEDICINE ???????? 

Israel's absolutely stunning and super achievement in not only CLAWING back to their ROOTS, from a near extinction but today holding their fort with Pride and Power, directing new potential inspiration for our own Gaza Strips....... Kashmir... mind you.... is just ONE of them..... nearly every major region of Bharat has many Gazas lying quiet and READY for ACTION......... and this, is not to SHOCK you but simple TRUTH on the ground.....

Kashmir is NOT a new boil on the skin as is being aggressively projected by most of the media and Khangress gang. We have been falling into the TRAP each time we REACT to THEIR line of attack.

First WE need to stop reacting and execute well planned strategy that is AIMED to eventually bring out the HISTORICAL, POLITICAL & SPIRITUAL TRUTH of Kashmir !

YES, SPIRITUAL TRUTH. Remember Bharatvarsha has been a CULTURAL EMPIRE for over 6000 years, much before any human could utter a word in Latin, English, Arabic or Persian...  

Kashmir is etched ETERNALLY in the spiritual and religious palate of Bharatvarsha and has always been land of Maa Sharada, Rishi Kahsyap Tapobhumi... this was thousands of years before bearded militants even took their FIRST steps on this planet. The DNA of Kashmir both, physical and psychological , will establish an unbroken chain of over 6000 years with Bharatvarsha and Sanatan Vedic Dharma.

The Shankaracharya Hill in Srinagar from where Adi Sankara was supposed to have left for his moksha [Now being officially named as Takht e Sulaiman]

The Hariparbat hills of Goddess Durga which is so powerful http://www.kashmirherald.com/main.php?t=OP&st=D&no=208 

The Sharada Peeth and so many thousands of other Vedic sites and temples. There are so many cultural, religious and spiritual aspects which have roots in Kashmir, Kashmir Shaivism, Hindustani classical music, Devi worship, art, literature, including having their own Sharada script [now near extinct].

Each one establishes OUR DIRECT connect providing EMPIRICAL justification to do EVERYTHING possible to maintain, contain AND retain Kashmir.

We need to continuously hammer in the HUGE legacy that has been left behind as PROOF of OUR Kashmir.

We would need to involve many stakeholders right from the HRD Ministry, Education boards, TV Serial makers, Film Directors to help promote and propagate HISTORICAL TRUTHS and ONLY TRUTHs which are in abundant numbers in so many established references.

For example, how can a Javed Bhatt, Bhatt being the generations old surname of Kashmiri Brahmins / Pundits, today say Islam is his roots ??? and much more nonsense around undue and false historical facts ????

Just like Israel did with the Jewish religious monuments in West Asia, which they now control and now run a very successful religious/cultural tourism activity around the same, right in the middle of the Islamic heartland.

And as a part of the same strategy, we now come to the most vital part. Aggressive decisive action!!

Our strategy MUST NECESSARILY have a very CLEAR and LARGE Component of AGGRESSIVE ACTION.

Our existing route of engagement, discussions, appeasement, subsidies etc.... will only extend the problem over decades with human loss and pain dotting the longer line. Kashmir is NOT and absolutely NOT a KASHMIRI problem. The HANDLING of the issue may surely be a Kashmiri problem because the common Kashmiris are affected by the events on a day to day basis. Stone throwing.... etc etc

But the Kashmir problem is essentially a PAKISTANI problem. After formation of an Islamic Pakistan by a NOT SO Islamic Jinnah, the country itself lost its course and was confused on its objectives and aims. Soon led by progressive Bhuttos on one side and the Army who felt it could use right wing Islam as a whip to control and enjoy power. Which they have learnt, mastered and now successfully managing till this very day.

Pakistan today depends HEAVILY on keeping the Kashmir issue alive, that is their ONLY route to continued funds from West and China. Infact Pakistan is running the Kashmir problem as a BPO on behalf of global entities, who would want to exploit any dubious Human Rights issues, to elbow into the Indian narrative as and when required. Kashmir is a DYING Pakistan's OXYGEN. The West and China would always love to have a STUPID Pakistan sit on the Kashmir issue to tickle India whenever needed. A strong India might be a threat to the West and also to China.

Infact Kashmir today has become one of the TOP reasons that unite Pakistan, though ninety nine percent of them donot have a clue about the issue. Kashmir is that UNKNOWN reason which DRUGS Pakistan into a UNITED Frenzy of a GREEN festival bound by Islam.

The Army needs Kashmir to INVOICE large bills, the Politicians need Kashmir to DRUG common people into an amnesia of ZERO HUMAN or ANY Development and ensure maximum Pakistanis think and believe that Kashmir is the ONLY problem they face. 

These guys are NOT going to listen to logic or reason. Period. If you are NOT STILL able to grasp this TRUTH then better stop reading this post and wait for SantaClaus to deliver your goodies.

But in case you do realise this TRUTH then after building a large scale historical JUSTIFICATION for Kashmir being ONLY Indian, we should take cue from Israel and take a FIRM CONTROL of the state with ZERO Tolerance to India's territorial integrity. ZERO Tolerance. 

To an extent where we could even invite Israel to develop Kashmir, very much as China has been invited to build many areas and projects in Pakistan.

The ONLY long term sustaining solution is decisive AND aggressive ground level action.

There are a significant number of Kashmiris who are CONVINCED of a future with India. We need to nurture and promote this part of Kashmir to develop more footprints in ground level support and acceptance of the truth that is Bharat.

We also have, like the current norm, where the BAD is given more publicity and more value, a smaller population has been INFECTED with venom against India and some others a deadly deception that Pakistan and Islam are the ONLY answers to their BEAUTIFUL & PEACEFUL future. 

We will HAVE to IGNORE NGOs Human Rights and whoever comes in way of our MOTHERLAND's Aabrooo. 

This is not intended to be a detailed prescription to the Kashmir problem.... but just a small, modest trigger of a thought in the possible direction of an eventual solution. 

Let every child of the mother Bharat work in strategic unison to RETAIN, CONTAIN & MAINTAIN the CROWN of MAA Bharati in the form of Sri Kashmir!!

Vande Mataram !! 

Are we Secular ? Satyameva Jayate ???

From over 5000 years till this very day on the 14th January of 2018, a huge geographical land mass centered around modern day India and its inhabitants, in majority, have been celebrating with the same fervour, for the same agrarian reasons, a few days of festivity, known as Bihu in the North East, Lohri in the northern parts, Pongal in the south and Makar Sankranti in the entire region. 

For over 5000 years. Yes 5000 years. Before even the first alphabet of ENGLISH LATIN or GREEK was even discovered, not to mention any traces of any ISMs that currently crawl the world as dangerous predators. This land mass in the Indian Ocean, known and represented better as BHARATA has been a Cultural Empire for all these thousands of years and the miraculously CONTINUES to obstinately retain this character of cultural integrity. A lot of water has flown down the bridge and this very land mass now has new political maps dividing into many nations including Afghanistan, Pakistan, Burma [ I will always stick to this], Bangladesh, Lanka and India. 

Through all these years, despite having multiple, and often conflicting dynasties ruling parts and pieces of this land mass, there was never ever any pressure to alter or even notice the plurality of religions, language, regions and customs across regions. In fact, the whole region has always erupted in a united roar to celebrate and recognise the cultural unity despite the multi-angled social, religious and political spectrum that coloured this geography.

This very geography is presently afflicted with a condition certified as SECULARISM. An environment where small groups are given benefits, with a vengeance, as if to say we are the majority, and that is OUR SIN, now please do everything possible to make us feel like criminals for being the majority and also let us atone for our SIN by giving you every opportunity to exploit us and explode into majority, as soon as possible.

This entire orchestration around one word and a perception called SECULARISM.

Does this hold water ? Does SECULARISM truly represent and reflect ACTUAL TRUTH of the social, political and cultural mirror ????

Lets start with accepted definitions

Definition by Oxford Dictionary

Not connected with religious or spiritual matters.

As you notice the very meaning of SECULAR is ANTI Religion & Anti Spiritual

For a geography and demography which has had RELIGION & SPIRITUALISM as its CORE for over 6000 years, it was a CONSPIRACY by Nehruvian Mafia and A BLUNDER by rest of the country, including absolute gems like Sardar Patel and very doubtful saints like Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi to have even ALLOWED the mention of the word SECULAR in our nation.

So before even debating SECULAR vs NON SECULAR we need to grasp and fully comprehend the nature of blunder already committed by our forefathers. 

To give you an analogy, we have for decades been taking sides, arguing, debating around a MANGO tree when we actually wanted to protect the Pipal tree. The MANGO tree was never the truth it was always the PIPAL tree.

And the historical truth is......

India NEVER has Nor ever will be a SECULAR geography. We have always for over 6000 years and in future too remain a PLURAL geography. A land with multiple streams of thoughts, cultures, religions, sects and beliefs. Each one breathing FREE but NEVER EVER trampling on each others toes.

Despite our PLURALITY, essentially arising from the common pot of #SanatanVedic origin, [Shaivism, Vaishnavism, Shaktism, Jainism, Buddhism, Sikhism and many others] we have also shown Super Character, Courage and Large hearted Spirituality in accepting & HOSTING & Protecting & ENCOURAGING alien belief systems like Christianity, Islam, Judaism and also far off RE-VISITING cousins of Vedic people  the #Zorasthians... better known as Parsis or simply our lovable Bawas..

Were we SECULAR ? NEVER... we have always been a highly mature plural society and our biggest asset and virtue as an highly scientific and advanced civilisation was the fact that we were able to exist in a coherent and culturally integrated society for thousands of years. We always have had religion and spiritual foundations that gave the stability to social integrity across millenniums.

We were PLURAL..... the numerous events in the lives of Adi Sankara, Madhavacharya, Ramanuja, Das Kabir, Nanak Devji, Dyanehswar, Mira and so many countless gems of human souls who attained super levels of spiritual wisdom, without ANY compromise on their individuality, only HAMMERS the fact that we were PLURAL and never ever SECULAR.

The current emphasis of a vicious dangerous hateful gang of losers we often know as Left Liberals, a Mafia, that has played on a word SECULARISM. This malicious attempt is nothing but symptoms and signals of a deeper plot in our society. But now our focus remains on the veracity of SECULARISM.. so here we go.....

Throughout the CONVENIENT #Khangress decades this Mafia was slowly eating into the Indian discourse right from INFILTRATING the education system with HUGELY UNDER QUALIFIED Morons who spoke ENGLISH, to infiltrating the neo US NGO conversion gangs that were altering the religious demography ACROSS India.

A resurgent Right wing [RIGHT here is NOT left or RIGHT but RIGHT as in Wrong & RIGHT] in the early 90s with their minor victories had forced this CONVERSION Mafia retreat and plot with more VENOM... and this that we experience today is the result of that plotting. More importantly the intellectual wing of this mafia wants to TRAP us to indulge in a debate and establish the narrative around SECULARISM. Either for or against. When IRONICALLY the existence of Secularism as a realistic or viable path itself is under cloud of suspicion. 

The move to establish a social narrative around SECULARISM itself is a non starter and a TRAP. This is TRAP because we can never win the debate around the WRONG tree. SECULARISM has never and cannot be applied to Bharatvarsha. NEVER. PLURALISM has been a proud Genetic thread, one may be allowed to use scientific evidence, TRUTH will prevail. Bharata has been the womb to multiple streams of philosophies, sects, religions...... Jainism, Buddhism, Sikhism and ever before these neo streams, we had multiple conflicting, opposing social thought streams existing together, without losing their individual identity and also without compromising on their individual compulsions.

A PLURAL society like India where every minority is allowed to breathe free, SHOUT using loudspeakers, 5 times a day that ONLY THEIR GOD is TRUE, the REST are all FALSE, where they are allowed to SPONSOR their religious Haj trips using Alms from majority. Where HISTORY that is painful to MINORITIES [ Like 1000+ years of Rape, Plunder & destruction of 1000s of temples, Forced Conversion etc..] is forgotten and History that is Gainful for them [ Guj 2002, Babri demolition etc..] is made the narrative, Christians conversions OPENLY going around ABUSING, MOCKING Hindu gods & systems..... in such a PLURAL society, there are Media Prostitutes and a few Social Pimps who are working overtime to prove and establish this as a SECULAR state or as a Mature Plural society.

But we have crossed the THRESHOLD of being a Mature Plural society [SECULARISM forced on us ]  and now we are stepping into a highly SELF-DESTRUCTIVE zone of our camouflaged Plural character.

If you Google any research report on the future demographics of India, you will be smacked with a  majority of scientific analysis that proclaims danger for a PLURAL Hindu character for India.... very very soon......

As far as this debate is concerned we have to completely steer away from SECULARISM and establish OUR framework around PLURALISM, which is a more TRUTHFUL and Correct representation of the India character through 1000s of years. 

We are NOT SECULAR, we believe in Religion #Dharma and in Spiritualism #Adhyatma, we are PLURAL... we have been this way for 1000s of year and intend to be this way as long as possible....... if gifting bibles and forcing girls into conversion is your vision of future.... then ..... stop.... go get a life....... allow differences to be and breathe.... be true, be Plural....... and THIS should not be an APPEAL ........

This should be  an ORDER....... 

Every Indian, every Media person, every Politician who works against this PLURALITY through conversions or hate against ANY other should be ashamed by us... by you... by me.... by us... by the Hindu samaj.... We should build a NO NONSENSE wall of defence around the plural character of BHARAT and destroy once and for all the SECULAR nonsense of INDIA.

The best way to RESPECT sacrifices of #GuruGobindSinghji #ChatrapatiShivajiMaharaj #RanaPratapji #BhagatSingh #Rajguru #RaniLaxmibai #BajiraoPeshwa and EVERY soldier who has died for our nation and continues to die for the PLURAL concept of a SANATAN VEDIC Cultural EMPIRE... Bharata!!!!!!!

Let us NOW say I am a HINDU and proud one at that, you may be whatever I respect that, let me BE and I will let you BE.... PERIOD

May truth prevail, may every EVERY life form including Christmas turkeys and Id wale goats be at peace.....

Om ! Om ! Om! 

Kamla ka Hamla

The Kamla Mills tragedy 

& 

the White Line on the road

Action - A Boil on the skin

It was indeed a tragic tail end to 2017 in Mumbai, where a very happening social cluster bursting with champagne and pasta snuffed out 14 human lives in a fire related tragedy. 

The Kamla Mills Compound has now for sometime been the HQ for fun and frolic in and around the very corporate Lower Parel area. Thousands of young and upcoming corporate stars descend to have a time-out at the many plush establishments that offer an array of wine, cuisine and relaxation. 

A horrible fire broke out in one of these high end fun bars. Two lives were lost due to the fire and the rest due to fire RELATED suffocation. The cause of the fire is clouded in the smoke and ash of the devastation.

Whether the fire was caused by an accident or due to some other factor is a mater best left to proper scientific and forensic investigation, but what causes worry is the lack of planning and readiness for crisis management, considering 12 out of 14 died due to suffocation, a completely avoidable event.

Since it was quite late when the fire broke out [around mid night] it can be assumed that the patrons in the establishment would have near or over their tilting spiritual limits and that could also impair human efficiency, specially under panic and stress.

But what is central and most important is the loss of lives, an entirely AVOIDABLE tragedy, a LOSS only felt by the families who have LOST their OWN so abruptly and for such a Criminally frivolous reason.

Civic Apathy.... no.... Civic ANARCHY!!!! 

Reaction - A speciality ointment for skin Boils

The families too numb to fathom why and how on their invaluable losses.

A few shadow Samaritans did risk their own lives to react as humans. Insaaniyat still alive, thank you!

The print media poured gallons of ink, in thick Helvetica fonts, yelling out expert opinions and academic post mortem, while the electronic media couldn't contain their adrenaline levels and fingers on Social Media fluttered faster than wasp wings in peddling digital dope.

And finally the great heroes, local administration & government Babus [Doesn't matter BMC or who and also it even doesn't matter which political party is in power] arrived with the genetic Indian habit of rushing to a Dentist ONLY when your toothache becomes unbearable.

The authorities in a super fast sweep descended down on the Kamla Mills compound and demolished every inch of cement and iron which was existing without official permission for the past many years. With every hammer bringing down illegal structures, the media played the pastor's role with aplomb and splashed Holy water as if washing off the sins of ignorance and cash-backed omissions committed earlier by the authorities. 

   

And finally us, we, you and me. Well, with the poise of highly accomplished ascetics, WE, the aam janata, were able to not only put aside this horrible tragedy but WE were able to bounce back to the same bubbly spirits and pasta at the same location with a snap of the fingers. The Kamla Mills Compound and its establishments those which had been spared the glare and hammer of the authorities were brimming with people, smiles and wine... within a TWO days of the tragedy.

Symptoms - Look below the skin

Each time ANYWHERE in India, i.e. those few cities where traffic signals work and where those traffic signals are acknowledged, just try stopping for a red light. 

You will have the following events. 

A few vehicles will ignore the red light and just buzz off. 

A few will respect the red light but retain their Manly EGO by staying well ahead and beyond the white line of control. 

A timid few would stay back for the red signal before impatience gets the better of them and they inch forward as if threatening to leave if the signal doesn't turn green any faster. 

My eyes turn moist in memory of those rare diamonds who do not budge till the green light allows them to proceed, but not before suffering a high decibel attack from vehicles behind who are shocked at such a disciplined display.

Very few, specially very few policy experts or governance experts would identify this as a symptom to the civic apathy that we face today. 

I have read somewhere " If you want to know the character of a city just take a drive through its streets and the traffic will give you enough hints"

Coming back to Aamchi Mumbai and Mera Bharat Mahan..

Absolutely NO FEAR, NO RESPECT, NO SOCIAL CULTURE for SAFETY.......

Diagnosis - Impure blood

Very High level of IGNORANCE to reasons and logic of human and social well being, safety and efficiency behind civic rules and regulations coupled with a double attack of NO FEAR of being caught and NO FINE and no retribution have led to an EPIDEMIC of NON COMPLIANCE across the country.

From Ghaziabad to Gangtok, Kanpur to Kanyakumari, take a walk down any busy market place area and look around. You will find under a sky of dangerously criss-crossing electric wires an amazing spread of Indian JUGAAD delivered in fast food joints, restaurants, hotels with innovations on very vital things like gas cylinders, electric wires, plumbing, surface area extensions.........

If you did simple math, we would have an average of 17 disasters EVERYDAY... yes EVERYDAY.  But our Nation is truly running on Bhagwan Bharose... at the mercy of the heavens and hence,  though it sounds sadistic, even a few deathly disasters in a year is high levels of efficiency.

And this, is not just up scale restaurants, it is across every aspect of civic infrastructure. Illegal Shanties, dhabhas, incomplete road and PWD works, sewage systems [ Please recall the flooding in Mumbai and a PRECIOUS & ACCOMPLISHED Doctor who was lost to an OPEN MANHOLE], lifts just collapsing in buildings... and so many other areas of potential disaster, almost all due to NON COMPLIANCE to existing rules or LACK of rules. 

Disaster stares at us everywhere.

We sit on a tinder box EVERYDAY and that my friends, is the simple truthful Diagnosis, which is YET to be accepted, OFFICIALLY.

Prescription - Cleanse the blood

Citizen participation and more awareness amongst common citizens to the logic and reasons behind civic rules and the direct impact on the safety of their lives, their business and also a good run through the disasters which have occurred in the past due to NON Compliance.

Let us run Janata Adalats to explain the core theme behind civic rules is the safety and good of each citizen. On the flip side this exercise can also show out any current rule which is to the contrary and can go on the chopping block.

Even a SELFISH & FEAR driven albeit VOLUNTARY compliance from citizens is the best step towards evolved social infrastructure.

This BUY IN from citizens will be the MOST important BRICK in the wall of Civic well being and safety. Because NON Compliance, bribes and all deviations initiates from ONE INDIVIDUAL citizen's greed and ignorance.

Visible, swift and ruthless action for authorities found guilty of conniving with the defaulters. For example if the newspapers instead of splashing photographs of demolitions after the Kamla Mills tragedy had announced the immediate sacking of a dozen odd officials from service with their photographs and shaming them for their role in the mass deaths would have served as a great barrier for any future omission.

Zero Tolerance and Visible action against citizen defaulters. Period!

Loud noise, excited reactions, delinquent & delayed demolitions are like reacting to boils on the skin with an ointment which may even clear the boils, but it the blood which is impure, and until that is accepted and cleaned, you may expect such boils, off and on.  And again innocent human lives will be sacrificed to this disease.

Until even if we Indians get truly SELFISH, FRIGHTFUL and STOP at the White Line at a Traffic Signal we can ATLEAST hope for a safer and saner CIVIC infrastructure for the common man on the street.

Lets work on the cause and not just be a bunch of Pseudo RUDALIs on the effect.

Let us STOP before the WHITE LINE.......

Pray for the souls lost in this tragedy and pray for strength to their families to face this utterly ridiculous yet MOST PRECIOUS LOSS !!!!!

Om ! Om ! Om !

To blog or not to blog………..

This has been a long battle in a very noisy battlefield cluttered with flashes of clarity only to be flushed away with confusions and conflicts. Would it even matter if I wrote or didn’t,

Kya farak padega boss….. Should I too fall easy prey to the hallucinating false sense of power which new age digital platforms dole out with complete unbiased generosity matched possibly only by that almighty God ?

Digital platforms, Social Media…. What levelers these guys are…. Equal access to everybody & anybody …. And we have tweets & sermons from Important citizens like Iyers, Guptas, Patels, Nairs, Banerjees and all DIRECTLY directing lesser capable Citizens like the Prime Minister, the entire Cabinet, Reserve Bank head, Army Generals on how to administer the country….

“Dear #Modi please immediately take action on the statements of the Pak PM….” Tweets Mr. Deshpande before royally settling down with his cup of tea towards the end of a hard day at work where his boss showered him with choicest adjectives for his inability perform even the basic duties after 20 odd years of secure soft Government Naukri. He gets a sense of vindication at his power to advice to the PM of India and life goes on …Mera Desh Mahaan….

It has been said by many wise forefathers….. The wise speak because they have something worthwhile to say, while the foolish speaks because he JUST has to say something….. so then what would be my instigation for speaking out my mind….???? 

Foolishness or wisdom……

The value of anything is often gauged by its utility. Even the spoken words which help better understanding has value and in modern times is helping build many careers across industries from software to politics.

The digital space uniquely also allows one luxury that isn’t always found or always afforded in the brick & mortar space. We are able to exist and occupy Bytes of data without disturbing or intruding onto anyone’s toes…… We are able to just stay put…. We are able to let others visit our space at their own leisure & discretion….

And THIS helped me solve my puzzle ……. My Ego of course says I’m WISE but my status… my aukaat….. shouts I am FOOLISH………. And not wanting to let circumstances define my wisdom, I borrow some thoughts from LEFT overs and decide to go in for a mandate ……..

And then there was a little Rap on my knuckles from a person who has been after me to write for the past decade. A person, I rate very very highly and possibly one of the best brains we have in the country.

I present my case through these blogs.  I shall await in this eerie digital silence to let you decide the UTILITY of my words……

If you find any sense… any value …. please stay… keep visiting …. and share……
