Dear All,
Vidyadhar gadgil provided some quotes related to RSS
and Guruji. Let me quote mahatma gandhi verbatim:
"There is no doubt in my mind that in the majority of
quarrels the Hindus come out second best.But my own
experience confirms the opinion that the Mussalman as
a rule is a bully, and the Hindu as a rule is a
coward.I have noticed this in railway trains, on
public roads, and in the quarrels which I had the
privilege of settling.Need the Hindu blame the
Mussalman for his cowardice Where there are cowards,
there will always be bullies.They say that in
Saharanpur the Mussalmans looted houses, broke open
safes and, in one case, a Hindu woman's modesty was
outraged. Whose fault was this?? Mussalmans can offer
no defence for the execrable conduct, it is true.? But
I, as a Hindu, am more ashamed of Hindu cowardice than
I am angry at the Mussalman bullying.Why did not the
owners of the houses looted die in the attempt to
defend their possessions?? Where were the relatives of
the outraged sister at the time of the outrage?? Have
they no account to render of themselves?? My
non-violence does not admit of running away from
danger and leaving dear ones unprotected. Between
violence and cowardly flight, I can only prefer
violence to cowardice."

India, 29/5/1924; reproduced in M.K. Gandhi: The
Hindu-Muslim Unity, p.35-36.
Does the above excerpt look more like savarkar or does
it look more like Gandhi?
Regards,
Bhandari
