HINDUISM IS THE LIFEBLOOD OF INDIA, HER NATIONAL IDENTITY
We must not waste even an ounce of energy or effort, not lend ourselves to indulge in fruitless frivolity if we truly wish to serve the nation, for every moment of our lives well-spent alone can rescue it from the ruins we have been left into after conquest and colonisation for over 1200 years. Our sustained labour of love, our service and sacrifice for the nation alone can revive its past glory and even surpass it to place it preeminent among the comity of nations.
Our country may be economically raising its head again but our culture lies smashed, as rootless we remain in utter confusion as to our national identity. There has been a consistent effort to paint our motherland as the habitat of all peoples and, so, in such multiculturalism, there has also been this machination to oust the Hindu identity from the national discourse by supplanting it with such newfangled ideas of secularism that run contrary to the very idea of our ancient and continuous civilisation. This must not be, for it will be the death of the nation and, with it, the death of the world whose survival in these precarious times needs the light that still shines undimmed in the hermitage of the sages of eternal India. India must live and that implies the survival and flourishing of Hindu culture and spirituality, the triumph of the Sanatan Dharma. And this is our national identity.
