First it was Cambridge and now Berlin's Institute of Indology. Some of the academic cartels of ignorance and arrogance are shutting down. Right enough our bigoted racists "hostile academics" (Judge Damrell's words) are feeling the pinch.
Witzel and his cronies are on a new crusade to save their dwindling careers and dying profession. Seems like they are desperately seeking funding from NRIs to find 'chairs' for their stinky fat musharaffs. Paki lobby money squeezed tight for moolah? FOSA coffers going broke? FeTNA not offering help since it's busy bailing out it's officers on US gterrorism charges? "Dalit" orgs busy with Christmas collection? We don't know, we might never now - like the fate of that "Arun Vajpayee"
Nevertheless, enjoy some of the emails I've received on this..
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->How about an online petition congratulating Cambridge and the Berlin school authorities?
Apart from creating distortions and indulging in motivated denigration, what has indology contributed to unraveling the bharatiya traditions, ethos and civilizational inheritance?
I for one would congratulate Berlin's Institute of Indology for planning to close it down. Same goes for the closure of indolgy studies elsewhere outside of Bharatam. Bharatiya studies should be studied of bharatiya, for bharatiya and NOT allowed to be kept unde seige by eurocentric creationists. Arya, ayya, leave us alone; we have had enough of the colonial loot followed by william jones type indologists wearing skull-caps. It is reparation settlement time.
Some moves are afoot to tap funds from wealthy NRIs. I hope NRIs will see through the pathetic plight of eurocentric creationists who are themselves to blame for the emergency situation they find themselves in. Solution? Do prayas'cittam. Penance on Alps or Colorado heights may help. Of course, some may prefer Nepal or even China. There is little prospect that witzelites will really care to instill a sense of pride in the children in schools studying Hindu civilization. The mess is too deep for tears.
