You are a Hindu first and a Hindu last only then you can survive , exist and live with pride as a Hindu. This is the need of the present time.

Who is a Hindu? Yogesh Kumar Saxena, Advocate, High Court, YOGREKHA

I am a Hindu, my ancestors come from Hindusthan and my holy places or places of pilgrimage are in Hindusthan.

In Hindusthan over many thousands of years the Dharma,culture, civilisation, traditions, philosophy,Yog vidya, Ayurved,music, literature, arts , fine arts, dance, and languages had developed without outside compulsion and force in total harmony with nature and eternal laws that is why it is so pure and unique and if you approach with open mind then you will love it and you will find vast treasure in it and that is the experience of many people around the world , so try to know more about it you will be spiritually, morally and culturally richer and peaceful. Everything in Hindusthan is attached to word Hindu and greatest strength of Hindus has been the freedom of expression in thought, talk and action .The culture of this country is Hindu Culture, the history of this country is the history of Hindus, so is the architecture, literature, sculpture, folklore, poetry, dramas, stories, comics, sorrow and laughter, music, languages and heritage around us is all Hindu.Where ever Hindus went they took their culture and religion and people were attracted so adopted without compulsion or force so south east Asian conutries fell in love with Hindu culture and the influence can be seen in these countries from Mangolia to Burma toLuthvania and now in Europe and America. We must go a bit back and deeper and infact it has all its source from Sanatan Dharma. All the religions of Hindusthan are branches of Sanatana Dharma which is generally known as Hinduism ..Hinduism has the capacity and capability to accommodate all those who believe in the freedom of individual in thought, talk and action following the eternal laws of equality, justice and freedom in development of humanity. The time has come that Hindus must rename India officially as Hindusthan which is long over due, this will bring a new energy in Hindus and make them feel proud , bold, assertive, responsible and courageous . This is the demand of majority Hindus and cannot be ignored anymore.

A very simple fact I would like to mention here is this that anybody can become a Hindu according to the above definition so you do not have to be a born Hindu . Swami Dayanand Saraswati first started conversion of Muslims and Christians who were converted from Hindus and later Swami Vivekanand came in favour of this and promoted this and recently Swami Chinmayanand, Sivaya Subramaniya swami came in favour of this. Can a Hindu boy marry a non-Hindu girl? The answer is yes but he must convert her as a Hindu by giving her a Hindu name and introducing her to Hinduism so that children have no confusion in their identity and bringing up. Can a Hindu girl marry a non-Hindu boy? The answer is yes .She must give Hindu names to children and bring them up as Hindu. The Hindu boys and girls must be bold,assertive, progressive and strong in their traditions,heritage, culture, religion and character. They must learn about their religion, culture and traditions only then it is possible and here the parents and guardians of society must play their roles with farsightedness and responsibility to teach them to survive and preserve the interest of their culture. The reconversion work is going on in Hndusthan and all over to get Hindus back where they truly belong. This is a sacred duty of every Hindu to welcome these brothers and sisters whom we had lost and create a society so that we do not lose them to foreign faiths because we have been divided by these foreign faiths as a result our motherland was divided. Before the arrival of these invaders, Muslims and Christian we were the most prosperous, happy and peaceful this is the fact we must know.

Who are you?

Your answer must be that I am a Hindu.

You are a Hindu first and a Hindu last only then you can survive , exist and live with pride as a Hindu. This is the need of the present time.

You are not a Brahman, not a Kshatriya, not a Vishya and not a Sudra but you are a finished product of al these because when you use your brain you are a Brahman, when you use your power[ arms]you are a Kshatrya, when you do business you are a Vaishya and when you serve you are Sudra so do not weaken your community by dividing in Jatis or castes but be proud of what you are and what you do. I wish to quote a speech of Lord Macaulay given in British Parliament in 1835 regarding greatness, superiority and civilisation of Hindus.

I have travelled across the length and breadth of Hindusthan[ India ] and I have not seen one person who is a beggar, who is a thief, . Such wealth I have seen in this country, such high moral values, people of such calibre, that I do not think we

would ever conquer this country, unless we break the very backbone of this nation, which is her spiritual and cultural heritage, and, therefore , I propose that we replace her old and ancient education system , her culture, for if the Indians think that all that is foreign and English is good and greater than their own , they will lose their self-esteem, their native self- culture and they will become what we want them, a truly a dominated nation.

This was the most unfortunate strategy adopted by British government and they destroyed everything good in India which had taken her to develop thousands of years.
