Perhaps you are not the typical 13-to-17-year-old boy

How's that India-Pakistan reunification prediction thingy going for ya, Jay?
"Based on one of mankind's most time-tested sciences, Jyotish,
(_no experimentation here_!) the India-Pakistan reunification
should occur on our about July 26, 2000 (the date of the final
signing of the pact.)"

IS SANATAN DHARM A MONOTHEIST RELIGION?
Non-Dualist/ Monistic, Monotheism and the Polytheism
By Rabinder Kumar Koul
Very often limitations of our language bind us and cannot let us see
beyond these limitations. The Judeo-Christian- Islamic traditions are
bound by these inner constructs. They can only classify the world's
spiritual traditions in to Monotheistic and polytheistic traditions.
These are the blinders put on them by the nature of their discourse.
This classification is not broad enough to encompass the non-Judeo-
Christian-Islamic traditions. This classification is thrust on the
Judeo-Christian- Islamic traditions because they posit two separate
class of realities. First one of these two realities is called God,
and the other realities are every thing else "that is", and is
different from God. In general, God creates these from no-where and
can vanquish these in to non-existence. There is no connection
between the nature of the God and the nature of the other realities.
Thus, Judeo-Christian reality is of many kinds. There is God, then
there are angles, then there are Men, women, then beasts and then in-
animate things. All of these are distinct from each other and are
fundamentally different in Judeo-Christian- Islamic worldviews. Such
a model of the reality is called the Polyistic model of the reality.
God is just one category of reality in their worldview (even though
highest) but in existence are many different kinds of realities,
completely dis-jointed from each other in a fundamental way. In other
words, the Judeo-Christian- Islamic view of the reality is a
collection of distinct and un-connected realities, which are
fundamentally different in Character from each other. Looking from
this perspective, their reality view is Polyistic worldview. Also
note that these traditions have no basis of substantiating their
first category of reality they call God/Allah etc. while living.
Therefore, the system is not only Polyistic but also, only a faith.
I.e. Ask no questions and I will tell you no lies.
On the other hand, the scientific worldview as propounded by the
modern Physics is Non-dualistic worldview. Based on the experimental
observations and the internal consistency arguments, it claims that
there exists one fundamental reality (principal) from which both the
space-time and matter along with their dynamics arises. This eventual
reality (principal), call it Grand-unified- Quantum-Gravitat ional
reality, is what is hinted at by the modern Physics. Even though this
ultimate description is not with us currently, but we have a large
portion of it already at hand. The success of the modern physics is
testimony to that. Thus modern physics emphasizes that the ultimate
reality is one from which all else comes forth and that all else is
fundamentally tied to this underlying existent through dynamics with
some symmetry breaking/phase transition processes. The diversity of
the states of mater and the geometry of the space-time arises out of
this principal by some symmetry breaking principals inherently
contained in the theory. This Scientific view of reality is Non-
dualistic fundamentally at variance from the Judeo-Christian Islamic
worldview. Even though an conscious observer plays a fundamental part
in the outcomes of an experiments of this theory, there is no
explicit explanation or incorporation of the main characteristic of
observer, namely its consciousness/ awareness aspect in to the
theory. However Non-dualistic world view rules.
Indian traditions cannot be captured by the classification categories
of the Monotheistic and polytheistic categories. Because, this
classification ignores the reality (existence) as a whole and is
focused only on the category called God (Which is considered purely
an issue of faith). Indian traditions on the other hand considers all
existent reality as a whole, no aspect of which can be ignored, and
has a strong emphasis on the experiential component. Thus the
monotheistic and the polytheistic classification can not capture the
Indian notion of existent/"Sata"
Indian traditions also provide a classification scheme which is broad
enough to capture all views of reality, be it Judeo-Christian-
Islamic, Indian, or Modern Scientific traditions. This reality
classification scheme is given as
o Non-Dualistic Reality: It has two possibilities as given below.
o No-Reality (Nihilistic view)
o Non-dualistic (Monistic) View (There is only one reality and
every thing else arises from it)
o Dualistic Reality: There are at least two distinct realities o
Polyistic Reality: There are many distinct realities
Indian Vedic, Agamic/Tantric, Budhist, Jaina and Sikh traditions are
all fall in to one of these as shown below.
Non-Dual Tradition
No-reality Exists Budhism / Jainism
One reality Exists Advaitic Traditions / Modern Scientific view
Dualistic traditions Nyaya/Yoga/Vaishish kA/Dvaita Shiva, Vaishnava
Traditions/ Sikhism
Polyistic Tradition Sankhya/ Judeo-Christian- Islam
Even though Advaitic traditions posit only one kind of reality, there
is more than one variety of Advaita. The difference is in the
details. The consciousness plays a central role in the Advaitic
traditions of India and every thing else eventually is shown either
to be evolutes from it or only an appearance. Hence it also
incorporates the aspect of Consciousness which Modern physics does
not address even though it plays a central role as an observer. This
part is on-going work in Physics. In Advaitic traditions too, in my
perspective a modern understanding of the evolutes of the TatvAs have
to be better understood. That is a different story.
Connection to Polytheism: Let me address this from the non-dualistic
point of view. In Advaitic SivA, the ultimate reality becomes all
different names and forms. Thus, all form are equally sanctified and
sacred and worthy of worship. (That is why we greet by saying
NamaskAra). Here in lay the true roots of, what is called,
Polytheism. Notice, even here when one worships no aspect of the
existence is ignored. The Polytheism arises directly from the deep
experience of the non-dualistic tradition. Monotheistic tradition
falls far short of that and is completely oblivious towards the
nature of all other existent reality. In fact, it is in direct
contradiction of the messages from the modern physics since it
considers all different existents as de-separate.
On the other hand, if that non-dual reality posits reality as
appearance only, then the foundation of this appearance of the form
is the one ultimate reality in that form. In that case, one is always
worshiping that ultimate principal in a given form.
Therefore the attempts to show that Hinduism is monotheistic are
misplaced, for its roots lay far deeper experiential ideals, and
deals with the reality as a whole. For Non-dualistic traditions may
contain (but not necessarily) the monotheistic aspect but in reality
transcends it. The attempt to show otherwise is indicative of mis-
understanding of Indian traditions.

Victims of Islamic bigotry
By Anuradha Dutt
Op-Ed
The Pioneer
Thursday, February 25, 2010
The beheading of Sikhs in Pakistan and the assault on a temple at
Sonargaon in Bangladesh point towards the plight of non-Muslims in
Muslim majority countries. The situation is clearly intolerable and
India must exercise its moral authority to come to the aid of
innocent victims
Even as political parties that nurture minority (read Muslim) vote-
banks prepare to grant further privileges to the community under the
guise of alleviating social and economic backwardness, and lakhs of
illegal Bangladeshi Muslim immigrants procure property and voting
rights, one just needs to look across India's western and eastern
flanks to ascertain how Sikh and Hindu minorities in Muslim majority
nations are being persecuted. In the latest of a series of communal
assaults on them, two Sikhs were beheaded by the Pakistani Taliban
for their reported failure to convert to Islam. A grief-stricken
Taranjit Singh, cousin of Jaspal Singh, one of the decapitated men,
praised Jaspal for choosing martyrdom over the ignominy of forced
conversion. The other reason cited for the decapitation is the
deadline having passed for payment of ransom of Rs 3 crore to the
abductors. Two other Sikhs are still in the Taliban's captivity.
In Bangladesh, on February 6, a gang of men, 30-35 in number,
vandalised the Sonargaon temple, an ancient Hindu pilgrimage in
Narayanganj district, and damaged six idols. The supposedly secular
Indian intelligentsia and media, which suffered an apoplectic fit as
a result of the Babri Masjid demolition, largely ignored the assault.
Neither did Right-wing groups, posing as custodians of Hindu
interests, bother to raise the issue. Yet, to dreg up the past, the
Muslim backlash to the Babri Masjid demolition on December 6, 1992
was marked by the ancient Dhakeshwari shaktipeeth in Dhaka being
vandalised and Hindus being butchered; and over a hundred shrines,
including those of Jains and Sikhs, being damaged in Pakistan, and a
Jain temple being razed. In Britain, a temple was razed by a vengeful
mob, and gurudwaras and Hindu shrines attacked. Muslim expatriates
from the subcontinent attacked the Indian Embassy at Teheran, and
rose in protest in Arab countries though Arabs themselves observed
restraint.
The assault on the Sonargaon shrine as well as the beheading simply
draws attention to the plight of non-Muslims in regions, where
Islamic bigotry has reared up in a ferocious avatar. Under the
previous Bangladesh Government, reports of snatching of land, owned
by Hindus, were common; and majority of rape cases were registered by
Hindu women. Such persecution forced many Hindus to flee their homes
and seek refuge here. In Afghanistan and Pakistan, where the
Taliban's writ runs, besides Sikhs and Hindus, minority Christians
too are on the run from marauders, criminals and fanatics, posing as
the true flag-bearers of Islam. They are being forced to pay jizya,
protection money or survival tax, in order to ensure their safety, to
extortionists. In Iraq, too, according to reports, Christian families
are being coerced by gun-toting men to pay jizya or leave.
The poll tax levied on non-Muslims in Muslim countries in exchange
for state protection draws sanction from the Quran (Al-Tawbah 9:29).
The imposition of jizya and the accompanying violence in lawless
areas is a throwback to the past, when crusading Islamic conquerors
subjugated 'infidel natives' either on the point of the sword via
forced conversions or spared their lives in exchange for the payment
of protection money:
"Summon the people to god; those who respond to your call, accept it
from them, but those who refuse must pay the poll tax out of
humiliation and lowliness. If they refuse this, it is the sword
without leniency. Fear god with regard to what you have been
entrusted." (Al Tabari, Volume XII)
Umar ibn al-Khattab during the conquest of al-Basrah (636 CE)
The conquest of Sindh by Muhammed Bin Qasim in the early 8th century
AD led to imposition of jizya on Hindu and Buddhist natives. In
return, they were free to follow their own religions. This set the
precedent for some of the Islamic rulers who followed him into India.
The empire-builders among them, the Mughals, alternated between
Islamic severity and kingly graciousness in their treatment of non-
Muslims. However, the Sikhs, as a militant sect, came into conflict
with them. Emperors Jahangir and Aurangzeb clashed with two of the
Sikh gurus Arjan Dev and Tegh Bahadur, respectively, and had them put
to death. The four sons and mother of Guru Govind Singh, the last in
the line, were also martyred for resisting imposition of Islam, as
were thousands of others. The differentiation between Muslims and
infidels often owed to political compulsions.
But such intolerance is an anachronism in today's rapidly shrinking
world. There are ulterior motives behind religious bigotry. Hugh
Fitzgerald, of JihadWatch, states on his internet site DhimmiWatch:
"Elsewhere, as in Pakistan and Bangladesh, the Hindus and Christians
live in a state of permanent physical danger, and that danger also is
one of losing their property to Muslim looters and marauders who
cannot be sued or brought to justice on the say-so of a non-Muslim...
There is no security for the property of non-Muslims in Muslim lands,
and there are various ways in which the 'protection money' that is
the jizya is paid...".
Religious bigotry is thus also a convenient pretext for extortion and
grabbing minorities' property, and making them abandon their homes.

Grave blunder to talk to Pakistan
By Shobori Ganguli
Editorial
The Pioneer
Thursday, February 25, 2010
By the time this appears in print, India will have committed its
second worst diplomatic blunder of this decade, the first of course
being the shameful India-Pakistan Agra Summit of 2001. Today, the
Foreign Secretaries of India and Pakistan will sit across the table
to talk about talks. Resumed at India's behest, a fact Pakistan is
justly gloating about, the meeting is intended to address New Delhi's
terror concerns.
However, it is nothing short of a grave blunder to sit across the
negotiating table with a country that displays no intention of
revising its intransigent reluctance to address India's concerns over
repeated acts of terror, the latest as recent as the February 13 Pune
blast. Admittedly, Pakistan cannot be faulted with in this 'talks'
initiative. True to character, it has obdurately refused to honour
even a single demand placed by India on the table following the
deplorable 26/11 attacks on Mumbai. Rogue to the core, it has
systematically flouted every rule of diplomacy and good neighbourly
conduct since 1947. It has talked Kashmir each time India has
screamed terror. The 26/11 perpetrators, their predecessors and
successors, continue to breathe free and spew anti-India venom from
across the border. Yet, we are made to witness India's shocking
decision to invite an unreformed Pakistan for talks.
India's regrettable haste in this latest dialogue initiative is
indeed inexplicable. After all, 26/11 was cited as the proverbial
last straw that led to suspension of talks in the first place. What
then has changed in the interim for the two countries to resume
dialogue? If at all, there has been yet another heinous terror attack
in Pune that has claimed 16 lives, mostly innocent students, an
inhuman act that the Pakistan-based Jamaat-ud-Dawa'h has openly
claimed prior knowledge of. Further, Sikhs are being mercilessly
beheaded by the Taliban in Pakistan's North-West Frontier Province.
Amid all this, India seems to be mindlessly ceding its bargaining
options, one by one, to Pakistan. This was strongly underlined when,
under obvious US pressure, it revised its post-26/11 'no talks'
stand. Given India's grave security concerns, such pressure ought to
have been firmly resisted. On the contrary, New Delhi now seems to be
of the startling opinion that the best way to get Islamabad to act on
terror is to actually start talking again.
Arguably, this premise could be defended. After all, there is no
point in alienating a neighbour to the extent that it turns
completely deaf to our genuine concerns; talking could perhaps drill
some sense into that country's establishment. However, there is an
existent ground reality in Pakistan which India seems to have
shockingly lost sight of. From the day it first made the offer of
talks, several Pakistani voices, jihadi and official alike, have
suddenly started talking about all "outstanding issues" as the basis
for resumption of dialogue. Much as New Delhi may delude itself into
thinking that today's Foreign Secretary level talks are going to be
solely dedicated to terror, statements emanating from Pakistan
indicate that "all issues of concern to both" is what they have in
mind.
To that end, certain goalposts are being unilaterally shifted by
Pakistan even as India stands a mute spectator. All of a sudden there
is intense clamour in Pakistan about India's "water terrorism", with
former Information Minister Mohammed Ali Durrani going to the extent
of threatening that "the water issue could prove to be a nuclear
flashpoint between the neighbours". Urging global intervention, he
says India's "hegemonic" behaviour could "ignite a nuclear war".
Aware that Kashmir alone cannot fetch Pakistan global sympathy any
longer and also that there is growing domestic unrest over the water
issue, the Pakistani establishment is now playing its age-old
diversionary games, hitherto restricted to Kashmir. Pakistan Foreign
Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi has categorically said that during
talks with India, more "tangible issues" like the water dispute would
take precedence over Kashmir.
Even as the Pakistani establishment is visibly and audibly pushing
the hard line, the jihadis are posting macabre messages India's way.
If JuD chief Hafiz Saeed screams, "Ek Bombay kya hota hai (One Mumbai
is not enough)", his deputy Abdur Rehman Makki asserts, "Muslims
dying of thirst would drink blood of India". Makki's views are not
significantly different from the official Pakistani line, Prime
Minister downwards, that says India wants to destroy Pakistan by
cutting off its water, that it is turning Pakistan into a desert and
will starve it to death. Suddenly, water is a 'core' bilateral issue,
a definition hitherto reserved for Kashmir. Shockingly, the
terrorists, in sync with the establishment, have moved beyond
Kashmir, vowing to unleash jihad on India in the name of water. With
this declaration coming only days ahead of talks, and the Pakistani
establishment doing precious little to curb such diabolism, India
should have ideally demanded a clear statement of intent from
Pakistan before resuming talks.
Predictably, Pakistan is once again putting on the shameless and
baseless 'terror victim' act. Mr Qureshi has said, "If their concerns
are about Hafiz Saeed and Mumbai attacks, let them put it on the
table. If we've concerns about Balochistan, let us put it on the
table." Pakistan's Foreign Secretary Salman Bashir says raising the
Hafiz Saeed issue would be "counter-productive" and that if counter-
terrorism is indeed raised Balochistan must find mention. Déjà vu,
indeed: The ignominy at Sharm el-Sheikh last July when Balochistan
first became part of an India-Pakistan joint statement is still fresh
in public memory. Mr Qureshi has, in fact, warned that, "We should
de-link negotiations from such acts (of terror). There are such acts
taking place in Pakistan. We're victims of terrorism. At times,
foreign nationals are involved in these acts in Pakistan. Does it
mean that we should cut ties with those countries?" No prizes for
guessing which "countries" he is talking about. So much for
Pakistan's self-declared "constructive" approach.
With the jihadis' recalcitrance matching that of the Pakistani
establishment's, there is very little by way of forward movement that
India can hope for through talks. One is, therefore, amazed at the
Manmohan Singh Government's sudden willingness to talk to a country
that is literally holding the gun to India's head even as its Home
Minister refuses to negotiate with the Maoists at home till they
abjure violence. Surely, what stands to reason for internal security
cannot significantly alter when it comes to national security? Last
heard, there was firing by Pakistani troops at Indian soldiers in
Jammu's Samba sector, only hours ahead of the talks!
