Political Hindus vs Constitutional Hindus
It was only in the 15th century that the word Hindu was first used in a religious sense. Before that Hindus was the name given to the people of the subcontinent of east of the Indus river, by the people west of the Indus river.
There were not billions of people who could be called like that then like today. Had only a few lakhs.
Hindus today are generally known as those who follow Rigveda and the remaining three Vedas, the 108 Upanishads, the Smritis, the Brahmanas, the Shodsha methods, and the Gita etc. 90% of the so-called Hindus today would have no idea about the above mentioned Hindu scriptures. Most of them might not even heard of it. What all heard were the stories from Ramayana and Mahabharata. Both are epic stories. Literatures. The Mahabharata does not belong to any of the above-mentioned holy books. It is a story made by adding many stories together at different times. In the case of the Ramayana, there is evidence that even before the Ramayana, Rama stories('Rama kadha') existed in many places in the subcontinent. In Valmiki's Ramayana, Rama was just a king and not an incarnation of God. It was in Tulsidas's 'Ramcharit Manas', Rama was made an incarnation of God. And the deities in our stories are similar to many Greek deities, since there was no such thing as Greek and India at that time, it can be considered that this happened naturally through the intermingling of people. Let us return to the 'Hindu' itself.
If even the Hindus today do not have any idea about the above mentioned sacred books like Vedas and Upanishads. Then, do you think that a section of people could access to these things in the ancient past? And they're known as Hindus? You yourself know that such a thing might have not happened. Because even today's 'Hindu' is a 'religion' of clear division and discrimination. You know the struggle against untouchability, the struggle against sati, the struggle against child marriage and the struggle against caste discrimination. It is well known that the struggle is still going on. But you are just promoting a sense that here is no caste and no discrimination and Hindus are all united as followers of some holy books and worshippers some deities. That realization came only after Savarkar's 1923 book- 'Hindutva'. It was then that he started trying to create a political Hindu here. As far as the political Hindu is concerned, they have some common enemies, as Savarkar said, Muslims and Christians and all religions originated 'outside India'. A political Hindu's religiosity is, only hatred and blame for these religions. More than 90% of the population of the Indian sub-continent have been oppressed and exploited on the basis of whatever verses the Brahmins have written in the first mentioned so-called sacred texts and discriminations written in them. Religious duty of a political Hindu, of which there may be many people who might be the descendants of the marginalized and untouchable caste of early generations, is the same discriminations and oppressions but now mainly towards other religions especially Islam and Christian which enable them(a descendant of exploited caste) to forget what is the unmasked vision of Hindutva on casteism(Manusmriti) , is very important in Hindutva ideology.
Did Hindus have a temple here? If there was,since then who were allowed to enter there? 90% of the people here were allowed to enter? No. Even today, many castes are not allowed to enter the temple in different parts of the country. Yes, we are talking about those who belong to the category called Hindus.
From Kedarnath to Puri Jagannath to Tirupati to Padmanabhaswamy Temple, all were Buddhist or Jain monasteries/shrines. Angkor Wat, known today as the largest Hindu temple in the world was a Buddhist monastery. The religion that went out of Indian subcontinent was also Buddhism. Do you know the Buddhas of Bamiyan? Buddhist and Jain religions or schools of thought do not think of an omnipotent God, they talk about human affairs. This will go on and on. So, one more thing can be said, the majority of Hindus today are those who had not belonged to a category called Hindu, before the British took the census. They were never ever placed in a group along with the Chaturvarna theorists who were here. What can I say to those who think that Hinduism is the name given to this chaos in which we stand as many different castes, discriminations,deities, rituals etc?🤦♂️
There is this notion among political Hindus which says that Muslims have this nature and Christians have this nature. This notion that someone take birth with this quality and this character is a story created by the Brahmins to oppress the rest of the castes as wretched and untouchable. Now it's being applied to other religion by the Political Hindus. See, just because you're known by a certain category or name doesn't mean you're going to have a certain character or quality. Be it Muslim, Christian, Hindu or Jew.
There is a freedom in India that exists within the constitution. There are many misinformed people who mistake it for the freedom and magnanimity of Hinduism here. For example, there are people who think that there is so much tolerance in India because Hindus are the majority here and they ask what would have been the situation if it had been a Muslim community? The truth is that there is no majority religion here, is why we do not have so much religious hatred and India remains like this. It is because of an artificially created religion called Hindu and it doesn't have that much power here is the reason why people here still do not crucify other religions or other countries like Islam or Christianity in many countries.
'If a Muslim mosque is demolished in the name of Ram and a building is built there, if Christian churches are vandalized from time to time and their prayers are suppressed, all the 'constitutional Hindu' votes can be attained'. It's in this thought that the R. S. S(a Nazi inspired organization), BJP and the Sangh Parivar have been trying to create more and more Political Hindus here since 1920's and the recent Lok Sabha election results showed them that India is not what they are trying to create for a century.
Thanks 🙏

Do you have the courage to talk about Muslims? about Christians, like you criticize us Hindus?
Communists are terribly supportive of Muslims. But according to them, Hindus is caste,, upper caste, oppression etc. You don't like to see us Hindus united, uh? !🤮
