Dharma got wrongly translated to mean "religion". Dharma more closely relates to morality or ethics. Dharma should be taught in our
schools to our kids and to our legislators. Let the textbooks and the
teachers be religion-agnostic or even atheist but don't stop teaching.
The British took it away from us and ruled us effectively. Bring back
our biggest cultural loss to the colonial rule - DHARMA. Bring Dharma to
everyday life, to governance, law and order, politics, etc.
Sagarika Ghose brings in clarity on the subject of Secularism in Democracy with new terms like "silly secularism" and "Righteous Administration" in her TOI editorial on Sept 17. In his first ever interview after assuming office, PM Modi has finally broken his silence on Indian Muslims. He says - "If anyone thinks Indian Muslims will dance to Al Qaida's tune, they are delusional. Indian Muslims will live for India. They will die for India. They will not want anything bad for India." That's good sound byte for the minorities. But it is still not clear what Modi's going to do to reign in the fringe elements in and around the party who have hijacked Hinduism. As far as the silly secularists in Congress, SP and other such "secular" parties, I think they are already finished or will be soon. Take a look at this interesting piece.
Speak up for Religious Neutrality and Dharma (Righteousness) in Governance.
