OPINION : 31/05/2019 : 1811. Ref : Some hidden facts about the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty : By The Stud : Mar 02, 2013 : Speaking Tree. Sub : HIDDEN FACTS ABOUT THE NEHRU GANDHI DYNASTY JAIHIND. 1. The Nehru-Gandhi dynasty starts with the Mughal man named Ghiyasuddin Ghazi. He was the City Kotwal i.e. police officer of Delhi prior to the uprising of 1857, under the Mughal rule. After capturing Delhi in 1857, in the year of the mutiny, the British were slaughtering all Mughals everywhere. The British made a thorough search and killed every Mughal so that there were no future claimant to the throne of Delhi. The Hindus on the other hand were not targeted by the British unless isolated Hindus were found to be siding with the Mughals, due to past associations. Therefore, it became customary for many Mohammedans to adopt Hindu names. So, the man Ghiyasuddin Ghazi (the word means kafir-killer) adopted- a Hindu name Gangadhar Nehru and thus saved his life by the subterfuge. Ghiy...

Brahman is fearlessness and cannot be attained unless one becomes absolutely fearless. Ref : Dharma : From the teachings of Swami Sivananda Saraswati 1.

It is the principle of holiness and unity.

OPINION 27/05/2019 1807. Sub : Really, this is Bharatvarsh. We call it Bharatvarsh. Even now they say ‘Bharat’.  It is not India. ‘India’ is a historical exigency. Similarly, the word ‘Hinduism’ – there is no such thing as that. It is Sanatana Dharma – eternal religion. It is eternal religion because it accepts every level of religious thought. It does not reject any level, but it does not consider any level as final. That is the whole point. Ref : What is Hinduism :  Swami Krishnananda If you travel from the Himalayas to Cape Comorin – Kanyakumari – and ask all the Hindus, “Tell me what is Hinduism,” they cannot tell you. They will say, “We are Hindus.” “But tell me what is Hinduism.” That they cannot answer because they are floating on the surface of religious outer performance and ritual, and the in-depth significance of it has not gone into their minds.
