CONVERSION, A CULTURAL CONQUEST
If I 'convert' a giraffe to a human by uttering some mantra, will it assume human form or attributes? In a like manner by uttering some 'holy' words is it possible to convert a Hindu to Islam? No, it certainly is not. It is the consequent cultural invasion of the person that does it and this is the brutality of it, the very violation of the sanctum sanctorum of a person's heritage, the desecration of his lineage and legacy.
Proselytising religions like Islam and Christianity are ever at it, this game of converting the infidel, the kaffir to the 'only true faith' in the name of supposed submission and peace, and this must be clearly understood by the Hindu if he is to preserve his identity as a race and a civilisation that has seen much wounding from alien theological invasions. And the trend continues unabated in the subcontinent while we keep living in the fool's paradise of an imaginary ever-thriving religious harmony that supposedly has been the culture of our much wounded motherland. It surely is time to wake up to the hard realities of this religious-cultural invasion and do whatsoever is necessary to defeat the dark forces that design India's impending disaster.
