In continuation with the discussion between Santosh and Fredrick, it needs to
be clarified for those who are not aware, that Hindutva and Hinduism are not
the same or synonymous. Hindutva is an ideology of the extreme right which is
fashioned after the fascism of Mussolini and Nazism of Hitler. Whereas Hinduism
is all inclusive and embracing, hindutva tends to divide people between 'we'
and 'them'. The hindutvawadis in order to gain respect and acceptance of the
wide peaceful majority try to project that they represent and speak for the
majority. In order to understand the hindutva ideology, discerning readers
should refer to the books 'We or our nation defined' by M S Golwalkar, former
RSS chief as also ' Brotherhood in Saffron' and 'Bunch of thoughts'. This will
give a keen insight into the mindset of the hindutvawadis and explain all the
violence taking place against minorities.
What should especially disturb peaceloving, liberal and secular minded hindus
is the fact that they too are considered as enemies after the muslims,
christians and communists.
Recently there was an interesting article on how hinduism is being hijacked by
hindutva. It bears reading once again.
