Historical Lessons for India
If we read Indian history from 700 AD to 1700 AD it will show thousands of X invasions, all the destructions of indic architectures starting from Martand Sun temple of Anantnag (Kashmir) which had been built by Lalitaditya Muktapida of Karkota dynasty circa 800 AD were destroyed by Sikander Shah Miri( an X invader), Nalanda University destroyed by Bakhtiyar Khilji, Kashi Vishwanath temple destroyed in shifts by Mohammad Ghori- Sikander lodhi-Aurangzeb, Somnath temple destroyed by Mahmud Ghazni several times, till the time of the creation of pakistan based on the X faith. They tried to change the demography of the Indian subcontinent.
People who blabber that Kashmir has never been a part of India should know that it had all the cultural ingredients which are indigenous to modern day culture of the majority of the Indians only.
In today’s perspective patronizing terrorists, talking the language what they like to hear don’t make us wise and secular, rather these make us a threat to our sovereignty.
This is a fraction of Indian history that some people of India wish not to talk about. Intentionally avoiding those parts of history which deal in the brutality displayed by the predecessors of a modern day minority sect(viz X) of India has nothing to do with secularism. Because secularism doesn’t deal in patronising crime. History teaches us lessons so that the same mistakes are not repeated.
People talk about X-phobia, there is so many terrible events, in fact the whole period of foreign invasions in India is so terrible that those are more than sufficient to create phobia, because sadly the Xs have not evolved much, their medieval mindset hasn’t changed, because the preaching that had caused the plunders remains the same and the ardour of following that preaching remains the same. And as we say that they have assimilated into our culture, it is only politically. It causes more phobia when we see some Xs glorifying those plunderers(& invaders). But a light of hope is not all Xs are the same.
There is a proverb “once bitten, twice shy”.
But in this case there are crores of bite marks, so the shyness is inevitable.
This shyness should not lead to hate crimes but the knowledge, the power of accepting the truth and the caution have to be there. Governments will change, but these have to be there to maintain the demography of India.
