A friend of mine sent me a link to a video on Ganesha, a Film by Prashant Kadkol. I always maintained that liberally depicting the Gods and Goddesses was central to the practices in Hinduism and that Hussein was being unfairly targeted by radical groups. This video hammers this point even further.
I enjoyed this animated film thoroughly and I forwarded this link to many of my friends, who too found it pretty humorous, creative and fascinating. In this animated Film, one can see Ganeshas dancing and singing to the beats of Hindi songs, and there are a few funny incidents too. The kids will just love it. The gravest threat posed by organizations like the Hindu Janajagruti Samiti is to the Hindus themselves. I wonder how they would react to a video like this. By their radical thoughts, beliefs and practices, they want to stifle the creative liberties that prevail in the Hindu religion. If they are allowed to have their way, they will eventually destroy the true essence and meaning of Hinduism. In their books, God is merely meant to be feared and worshipped, not to be loved or to be creatively inspired with. Organizations like this must be shunned by the society.
