religion not mentioned in any talks or speechesDavid ji,I was at the VFA

meeting at Swami Dayananda ji's bidding. It was nice to meet some of the

people. I was hoping to see you too. I think we met once long time ago and have

exchanged emails a couple times.I think one important thing that the VFA can do

is to make the ordinary people here in our country (USA) understand that it is

Islam that is a danger to almost every other religion not the Hindus. Prof.

Samuel Huntington in his now well known book, "The clash of Civilizations"

refers to the fact that every one finds

it easier to live with each other than with Islam. As you are well aware Hindus

want to simply live and let live. However, we think that if Bhagavaan gave us

birth in a Hindu family there must be a reason. To disturb people's faith is

the greatest violence and culminates in pain and tragedy for the perpetrators

of such actions. We see this in the unhappiness of our people here even in the

presence of great affluence. Destruction is upon us too. So are we going to

target the wrong enemy and loose two good countries ? On the News I see praise

for Musharaf and Pakistan. In reality the two most dangerous Nations on earth

at the moment are Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. Some how both the US Media and the

Christian groups continue to target the Hindu Tradition the most. This fact

apart from being painful to a Indo American Hindu like me, continues to harm my

adopted country the USA in various ways. My children and grand children live

here and I feel very strongly that for us to construct a

more Dharmik society here, we need to stop this Hindu phobia. In my extensive

talks and teaching classes I have not found the general public hostile in any

way -it is a purely "Leadership" formula, where the ordinary citizen gets to

sacrifice and the leadership sets us against each other.I very much hope that

VFA will first and foremost attempt to change the perception of Hindu Dharma

here in the USA-then we will be able to bring change with in Hindustan too.Warm

the Hindu religion is mentioned much more prominently than any other

non-Biblical faith by the Christian fundamentalists in America. But that is

targeting it for conversion purposes.Vamadeva Sponsor
