Dear all, The only way to counter such people is to have multi pronged action plans. 1 Each one of us must spend some time in understanding and propagating our religion. This includes studying and teaching our scriptures, learning the past history and disseminating the greatness of our hoary culture.

2. The target groups must include all sections of the society, be they Hindus or not , but most specifically Hindus. The niche sections could be marginalized sections of the society, the middle class, the professionals and the movers and shakers. Each one of us should understand who they can work with best and ensure that maximum benefit is drawn in such an arena. The personal benefit should be sacrificed at all costs.

3. The scriptures must be made a part of our curriculum, For e.g., you will notice that the school texts teach the preachings of Buddha, Mahavira, Jesus Christ and Mohammed but they never write what is taught by Vedas, Upanishads and epics, which are in fact epict the greatest human values ever known to the mankind.

4. Last but least, most of us abhor proactive and offesnsive action against those who abuse Hinduism but it looks like the need of the hour is to be offensive, at least towards those who are abusing Hinduism in a pre planned way with malicious intentions, such as the Christians who propagate the falisifcations that Vedas are prior to Jesus Christ or most of today's Hinduism has its roots in Christianity etc. Unfortunately, most of such people who propagate these falsifications are Indian converted Chrsitians. There should be radical Hindu groups which should be encouraged to file criminal cases against such people and even those who falsify or abuse Hinduism in the name of art and literature such as MF Hussian

In any case, more unity and more awareness is essential on the part of common Hindu. Kindly acknowledge as the problem pertains to you, me and all of us. regards, Kishore patnaik
