Mr. Sushil Sharma with the objective to reunite India and Pakistan to create Indo-Pak Mahasangha {strategically a partner for peace and development in the region}, which will stop blood bath among friends and relatives. It's well known fact that, before leaving India the Britisher’s created conflicts between Hindu and Muslims by dividing India and Pakistan and left Kashmir independent under their great policy. They knew very well, on this issue both the countries will fight with each other and never live peace fully forever. Because of the “divide and rule” policy till this day we have lost millions of friends and relatives. Nevertheless, we are still not able to solve the problem created by the British.



Rejoining India and Pakistan could not take place because of unexpected death of our father of nation Mahatma Gandhi who was killed by an extremist who thought Mahatma was responsible for slaughter of innocent people. According to him if Mahatma had elected a conscious prime minister and not insisted Nehru to become prime minister of united India, millions of innocent Hindus and Muslims lives could be saved and partition had not taken place. However, it was a great British policy to break the union of Hindu and Muslim of the undivided India.



"United we stand, divided we fall"



Make Indo-Pak Mahashanga to provide better education, create more employment and business opportunity in region



If Germany can be united, which was divided by the British in 1945 and unite for the development their citizen in 1990, why India and Pakistan cannot be re-united for its citizens?



If our union can eliminate the Britsher’s from our country once upon a time, then, our re-union can also create ripples of secularism round the world.

There are indeed bad effects of in-breeding



Marrying a 1st cousin decreases IQ by 8, a niece by 15 and a sister by 30 points

Extrapolating , marrying a cousins daughter would decrease IQ by 4 and marrying a second cousin by 2 IQ points

So one could say that all inbreeding effects are negated if the genetic distance is at least 2nd cousin.



In the pre-scientific age, this could be the initial basis of ban on same gotra marriages



In the following posts, I will post more

>>> TO MODERATOR - If this TOPIC is not in right place please move to right location.



I can relate the discrimination agains Brahmins (including Saiva pillai and saiva mudaliar and nattukottai chettiar) to the discrimination against Tamils in SriLanka, both are discriminated in their own land.



And one lesson the rest of TN has to learn from Brahmins in TN and Srilankan Tamils is the more you compress a

spring it is going to bounce hell of a lot.



I respect the Srilankan Tamils a lot as they are not influenced by the Stupid non-tamilian EVR's (who himself is a Naidu - vadukar or northener) idealogies and they have a great respect for Brahmins. Especially in europe they are so keen to learn the carnatic music and vadhyams (seen as Brahmins stuff in TN), I can categorically say that atleast 90% people learning carnatic music in Europe are Srilankan Tamils.



One simple example, most of the Tamil Temples in Europe were established by Srilankan Tamils, so if they wanted they could have appointed one of their non-brahmin people as priests? did they? Still all the priests in Tamil Temples are from Brahmin community (SL and TN). They are more broad-minded than TN non-brahmin Tamils and they know appointing specialists for a job is always the correct thing.



This might sound silly, but remeber one dialogue from movie Madrassapattinam , where after independence the heroine tells her dad that "why should we leave the country we have made this our land" for that the dad replies "indians (he meant locals of madras at that time) are ungrateful people and we cannot stay". Excellent and True, I would say TN non-brahmin tamils are so ungrateful people who forget how brahmins have contributed to the development for Tamil language and literature and are stupidly influenced by the EVR and KK's idealogies, who both are non-tamilians. And one can tell that DMK Karunanidhi is NOT a tamilian because he did not care for the Tamils murdered or r**ed in SL during the recent war. I also have to agree that Vijakanth and Vaioko both Ethnic Telugu Naidu people supported Srilankan Tamils, may be for political benefits.



Accept or not 50% of IT in South India is dominated by 2-3% of Brahmins, however there wont be a Brahmin doctor in the future in TN.



Btw Naidu's themself does not care about Periyar EVR as they come under FC category.

Many Hindu texts and saints have been of the view that India (aka Bharatavarsha) is the most virtuous nation or subcontinent in the world. For instance, it is said in the Vishnu Purana that it requires a lot of karmic merit to take birth in (the supposedly holy land of) India.



From the Hindu point of view, and in, say, pre-Christian times, this would have been absolutely true. However, considering that such statements of praise continue to be made by saints and politicians alike, this needs some explanation.



First off, India is obviously not the most comfortable country to live in. Some folks there in villages don't even have access to clean water. However, if we compare per capita carbon emission rates as well as per capita consumption rates, India is among the lowest in the world. The country with the maximum percentage of lacto-vegetarians is also India, so much more virtuous than the atrocities of China and the US on killing animals for their food.



A Hindu here will probably say that since India lets others use the world's resources and suffers herself the plight made by the greed of the rest of the world instead of fighting it out ruthlessly and stealing it away, it is among the most virtuous countries there is -- or at least that its citizens are some of the most virtuous men around (in terms of progress/harm caused to the rest of the world at the cost of one's own trouble/flourishing).



In light of the chaotic state of affairs as far as public welfare is concerned, a Hindu might well argue that since India is the most dense country by population, the way things are going on right now is actually far better than how messed up it could have been, had it been the case in an American or Chinese cultural setup.



What do you say?



[please keep an open mind here and your patriotic and ethnic prejudices away]



P.S.:

1. Caste is not an exclusively Indian phenomenon. Other countries have all kinds of social divisions and many of them more oppressive than caste. China is much more oppressive with its people -- India is so much more liberal.

2. Women, again, have been abused and disallowed their rights for most of recorded history and in all nations and cultures. A Hindu woman only gets herself assigned by social laws to specific duties (childrearing, homemaking, etc.) but have not been banned from political action, whereas until the 20th century in Europe and China women were actively forbidden from political participation and downtrodden.

3. Over 80% of India is Hindu.

[url="http://www.hindustantimes.com/Obama-in-trade-mode-announces-deals-worth-10-bn/H1-Article1-622778.aspx"]Obama in trade mode, announces deals worth $10 bn[/url]

Quote:US President Barack Obama is announcing $10 billion in trade deals with India that are expected to help pay for 54,000 US jobs. He's also unveiling new export rules to make it easier for US companies to do business with India. Some of the changes, including relaxing controls on India's purchase of so-called "dual use" technologies that could be used for civilian or military purposes, have been top priorities for the business community.

"Americans helped build India and Indians helped build America," he said in a speech to business leaders in Mumbai.



Obama made the announcements on Saturday in a speech to US and Indian business executives on the first day of his 10-day, four-country Asia trip. In the wake of Democrats' midterm election losses, attributed partly to continued high unemployment in the U.S., the White House is working overtime to present Obama's trip as singularly focused on US jobs and the domestic economy.



The commercial deals include the purchase of 33 737s from Boeing by India's SpiceJet Airlines; the Indian military's plans to buy aircraft engines from General Electric; and preliminary agreement between Boeing and the Indian Air Force on the purchase of 10 C17s.

What happens to the forum Santabanta?

Earlier they have erased three of my blogs after nearly 100 hits of each blog without showing any reason. Whereas the blogs are running in other international forums.

Now, as I am going to access the forum I get the reply:

This topic will look at the temperory pause in muslim rioting - post partition, and the restarting of muslim rioting

Implications of the verdict



HC has given a very clear verdict, leaving little scope for conjectures. It has surprised VHP, being much beyond their expectations. After all, there was a real risk of HC trying to appear secular.



It has left Congi clueless. They seem to be in a daze. Karunanidhi has been struck dumb. Reds too are silent. Wind has been taken out of their sails.



Sickular trio of Mulayam, Laloo and Paswan are not disclosing their cards, but they must be scheming about how to exploit the judgement. Even they seem to be stymied.



But recall that none of these sso called secularists has ever declared : There shall be a masjid there.



Laloo-Paswan strategy



It is a heaven sent opportunity for the duo to frighten or cajole the muslims into their camp. They will, of course, blame Congi and Central Govt, for their inability to to protect "secular" cause. If that happens, Congi might be pressed making some "secular" noises like a possible law for masjid. It cannot do it openly, but hints can be dropped. Otherwise Congi has no alternatives, and it rout in Bihar is gauranteed.



What about Nitish and NDA? A consolidation of muslims behind Laloo-Paswan will defintely bring in pressures. BJP has nothing lose, but Nitish might lose a lot. Will he now be a bit defensive about his opposition to Narendra Modi? Likely, but not gauranteed. In response to muslim consolidation, BJP too might try for a Hindu consolidation. After all, Yadavs are not "secular" enough to disown Ram Lalla. After all, they too are Hindus. What has Laloo got to offer the OBCs now? Nothing more.

They have got their share of pie.



Bihar election will tell a lot.
