A COMMENT OF RAM SWARUP'S HINDU
VIEW OF CHRISTIANITY AND ISLAM |
|
In Buddhist
philosophical works there are critiques of different broaches of Buddhism and other Hindu
systems like Sankhya and Vedanta. Such religious thinkers did not have the idea that it
was good not to have any critique of different systems, as someone might get offended in
the process of having their views questioned. There was an open pursuit of Truth and
everything was to be questioned.
The same thing is true in science today. While there is only one science this does not
mean that all scientists are good, that all scientific theories are correct, or that
minority scientists should be given special treatment as regards their theories, which
non-minorities should not be allowed to question. Such thinking does not lead us to Truth
but confuses free intellectual inquiry with political concerns and vote banks. India
needs to get out of the intellectual morass it has gotten itself into through such
intellectual appeasement. Ram Swarup shows how to
reserve this process. How his books are accepted is a good measure of how India is willing
to honesty deal with its conscience. Hinduism is a voice of Truth that needs to be shared
with all of humanity. Apologists of Hinduism and Hindu appeasers of non-Hindus have missed
the spiritual essence of the tradition, which is that Truth is greater than all beliefs,
authorities, books and institutions. |
