The Muslims have come in to this land eight century ago not to convert the poor of this land but for political domination and steal the wealth. They were able to remain in the saddle for 550 years for the locals were least bothered by the political authority. Their lives and years were dominated by the authority of their own panchayats.
They had inherited and invented religion as the science of living and not to be dominated by unknown authority. The Sanatan dharma, the oldest religion of the universe, gave them a democratic mind and tolerance to others and their choice from millions of options as their ruling deity or Aaradhya devas. Two other religious concepts also developed 2500 years later giving masses a total freedom to adopt their ruling deity. Both propagated no religion except serving needs of less fortunate. The Jains were told in the sixth century BC to adopt extreme austerity in living without display of their abundance. Later Gautam Buddha told not to wallow in wealth or seek abundance or adopt extreme austerity. He taught serving poor, in pain or poverty, was the right road to Nirvan or ultimate liberation. “You do not need to wallow in material wealth or practice extreme austerity”, he taught.
But four religions that emerged in the Middle East were not democratic or left millions of options as the Indians were given. The Hebrew told none other by their god to kill followers of other deities or concepts in the sacred land of Israel. The Pope, head of the Vatican, set the Catholics on nine charades to annihilate the new religion that emerge in sixth century AD as missions against the Islam, the religion of swords. The Muslims and Zoroastrians remained engaged in continued violence in Persia till the fight ended in migration of Zoroastrians as Parasi to the safe Indian shores for democratic living.
A small band of fanatics has adopted the same failed Christian concept to drive the Muslims away from India away even though the Indians tolerated them for 770 years. Originally not even a million had come to India as aggressors to become 150 million today as millions adopted Islam to escape the mental torture of not only poverty but mistreatment caused as the class not deserving respect as humans. The poor converted to seek respect and not salvation.
The upper class overlooked that the Varna classification was not social division but precaution as science against dangers of pollution enveloping the entire civilization. The ancient thinkers in India had known science as they devoted their minds and perceptive development to understand nature and its inequalities and dissimilarities. Indian saints could and did enlighten the world even in those times of lack of availability of transport means and easy and speedy ways. Their political authority was local Saints spent their life outside the society to enable the selves enough isolation, space, time and opportunity needed for cogitation. The history of India does not boast of powerful large empires but of small democratic republics. Europe and the Middle East were caught in violent war fares and in seeking political domination due their cravings to wealth and the material abundance but Indians were seeking spiritual wealth and knowledge of secrets of universe.
The democratic freedom, tolerant nature and craving to know secrets of eternity with eagerness for knowledge and not craving for material prosperity made the Indian civilization great and best among all eleven through eras. That enabled it to survive ten thousand years and thus out-survive all others. The research told an American female scientist to claim that India was merely a land connected with revered centres without a political authority though several and varied languages, living and adorning varieties existed for centuries. India did not have nor she had needs for schools for educating mass and vast population as every family was a school with parents passing on vocational ways and teaching living secrets to the new generations.
It is difficult to identify the cause and time and circumstances that made the land as inhabitation largely of poor. But they were not allowed to perish. They did not lament over lack of resources or their poverty. The fifty thousand educated Dalit young men had confirmed in February 1982 that they had gone over to the Islam to seek the respect and not the wealth.
But fans are blinded by lure of political power to realize the damage they are causing to the religion they claim to be serving. No other religion outside India allows such democratic freedom, tolerant nature and million choices. But blind followers cannot perceive what made them residents of a great land replete with science as the basic core of life.
EXPLOITING SENTIMENTS

A small band of fanatics is attempting to build their strength in power political arena in society by exploiting religious sentiments of masses by dividing the Indians in religious segments. After tolerating the Muslim rule for 550 years and living together with them for 200 years under the alien rule and 70 years of the secular rule without even once raising their voice they have suddenly identified the Muslims to be their enemy. In process of earning their base they do not realize or even care the serious damage they are inflicting to the national fiber. They blame through their campaign the previous political force for accepting the divide of the sub continent in two nations but preparing or seeking to create grounds for one more divide. They out to know they cannot drive away 150 million Muslims to any other land nor can invite a permanent injury to their conscious by drowning them or burning them.
