Moral Values

My 30-9-17 letter was intended to be an implied response to Mr Biswas's letter to explain spiritual unity and peace in India. A saffron banner -'Bhagwa zanda' - indicates 80% Hindu's religious unity to live in peace, and each brave Hindu takes pride in holding the saffron flag as Shiwaji Maharaj used to do so.

Sanatan Hindu's national God is the universal God - the Super Soul - the 'Paramatma' - the formless-'Nirakar' and attributeless - 'Nirgun'; so is the Christians' 'Father', and the Muslims' 'Allah', all are the same and the only one with different names.

Arya Samaji - a section of Hindu religion pray to 'Super Soul' directly without idols ,as Muslims do to 'Allah'; and the rest of Hindus pray to the 'Super Soul' through idols of Rama, Krishna etc as Christians pray to 'Father' through Jesus Christ. Most of the people listen intently to their religious preachers to put moral values of life in practice.

I agree to Ramesh Zala's view point about the ground realities that are created by foreign and local factors, and that thwart the political unity and peace in India.

The Congress government during their 70 years' rule openly treated Hindus as second class citizens by dividing and stratifying them into special tribes/castes, other backward classes etc and deepening their communal roots, which requires to be reviewed now in terms of educationally meritorious performance and economical position for justice, and rapid and excellent progress in India to compete with other countries.
