Re: [IAC#RG] Definition of "Hindu"

Mr Garg,
The people who are talking and agitating you, are achieving their aim, if you get angry as that is their aim - to create discord, enmity between Indians. Beware.

IN RE OUR "ASMITA" AND HINDU IDENTITY....

HELLO EVERYBODY,



Over a period of time, a lot has been discussed about Hindu, Hinduism
and Hindu identity etc. forum.

Kindly read this argument with an open mind.

In Delhi, there was a death in my neighbourhood about a decade back.
Seeing a tent in front of a house, I had asked an old acquaintance as
to what happened? "A Hindustani died", pat came the answer. I was
shocked for a moment and asked him what did he mean by a "Hindustani"
and if he was not a "Hindustani". This old man was emphatic in his
answer saying "I am not a Hindustani". "Aap ko to asli meaning pata
nehin nan", he said. Curious, I asked to know more about it from him.
He said "people of low caste earlier were being referred to as
Hindustani".

Now, let us see what is the meaning of Hindu. Somebody has suggested
on this forum that the original word was from Persian language. Kindly
have a look at the meaning of word Hindu in Persian language. I am
sure you will get the meaning as "black, uncivilised, irreligious
etc".

Some historians say that Hindu word has been derived from Sindhu as
Aryans, who came from Persian side, could not pronounce Sindhu and Sh
was pronounced "Sh" as "Hh". Then Persia should have been pronounced
as PERHIA and not Persia. Now I put a question, is there any language
in the world at any part where the S" or Sh" is silent? It cannot be.
Because such a sound emerges when two sets of teeth in your mouth
crash with each other or tongue hits roof your mouth.  There was a
senior IAS officer who had argued with me in Delhi that in Assamese
language, S remains silent. I said Hiteswar Saikia (former Chief
Minister of Assam) should have been called as Hitehwar Haikia.
Rubbish, is not it?


To the best of my knowledge, no historical account does support any
theory that the word is Hindu has been derived from Sindhu. But I
cannot say how such a rubbish argument had entered into the history
book.

Let us go back to 11th century. When Mamood of Ghazni had come to
attack Somnath temple (1015-1028 AD), his army had taken on the local
fighters calling the latter as Hindus. This is for the first time the
term Hindu was referred to by Alberuni,  a traveller who had
accompanied Mahmood.

According to B R Ambedkar, the foreign invaders had for the purpose of
identifying non-muslims had called the Indian natives as Hindus.
Indian natives during the six hundred year's Muslim rule were to pay
Zijiya tax and therefore identified as Hindus being non-Muslims.

Hindu has never been referred to as a religion in the history, not has
it been referred to a great glorious culture in any of the ancient
text of India. A friend of mine, who has great allegiance to RSS
ideology, had asked me " what is our religion?"  My view was, like in
western world, the faith system has been Christianity and Islam in
Arabian countries, India's faith has been "dharma". Religion is not
the English translation of word "Dharma". Dharma is the name of our
faith system. The beauty of this faith system is what ever comes out
of its contradiction again becomes a part of it. Budhism came out of
the faith system and again became part of it, Jainism came out of it
and against became a part of it. We do not consider Sikhism being out
of our faith system. We called Budha an incarnation of god.  Even to
bring and end to hostility between Muslims and Non-Muslims, the Bhakti
movement had ushered in Dargha culture. So in Indian faith system
Dharma, there is no place of hatred. It is an ocean of love. Let us
not name it as Hinduism and give a contour to it. I feel, the great
Indian faith system had a name for thousands of years as Dharma.
Naming the faith system as Hinduism is a great disservice to our
Dharma.

Let us abide by our Dharma. It is all endearing, encompassing and
widest possible term of describing what we are and what we should be.
Our faith system Dharma is secular. I think Indian faith system
Dharma, not Hinduism, would help demolish the walls of hatred between
faith systems which have evolved primarily to keep the human behaviour
on the rails.

(MY INTENTION OF WRITING THIS PIECE IS NOT TO HURT ANY BODY. I WROTE
THIS KEEPING IN VIEW A GREATER NATIONAL INTEREST AS BHARAT IS ALSO A
HOME TO CRORES OF MUSLIMS AND CHRISTIANS. THERE ARE NO ENEMIES OF THIS
SOIL.  LET US KEEP OUR INDIAN IDENTITY PARAMOUNT ABOVE OUR OTHER
IDENTITIES. '" LOVE YOUR NATION. BE A GOOD CITIZEN. THERE LIES THE
ANSWER.

With love
