What is Hindutva?...

‘It is Hinduism that refuses to be ashamed or timid’ Secular humbugs made me a marginal Hindu a Hindutva fan about a decade ago. When Secularista was at a loss to defend intrusiveness of Evangelism and Jihadism they latched on to ‘Hindutva’ claiming it an equivalent evil- thereby conceding what they sought to defend were indeed evil. 

Hindutva became a threat-word that made many Hindus fear being labeled uncool. Now Hindutva-pelting is a bore. The abuse-overkill has helped Hindus rediscover the freedom & joy of being Hindu. When they say it’s worth defending their Hinduness, they’re in soft-mode Hindutva. 

Hindutva is only an explicit assertion of Hindu identity. Assertion becomes an active challenge to those who’d threaten it. Every Indian who speaks up for India and its core values of conscious coexistence is a Hindutva-wadi or to coin a word, a ‘Hindutva’. 

Hindus have no problem with co-existence. But their current fear is, that for Evangelicals and Jihadis ‘co-existence’ is a preachy pretend and a whine, to buy time while busying at creeping subversion of society.

 

Today Hindutva stands, hands-on its hips gazing at Indian-hires in Anglo Saxon press, a pitiable George Soros waving his billions, and Indian Jihadis -cocky under covering fire of political parties & media- openly taunting India’s democracy & sovereignty. The message to eddying forces is this:’Back off. Enough is enough. We have weathered much & will weather this too.’ Patience ought not to be mistaken for weakness. Krishna took his time over Shisupala, didn’t he?

Remember when the Congress began demonizing Hindus, Digvijay, PC, Shinde called it ‘Hindu terror’. Then fearing alienation of all Hindus, they brought in Hindutva & forged the Good Hindu-Bad Hindu script. And, Rahul Gandhi slung a Janeu over & went temple hopping...
