HINDUISM IN CRISIS |
|
Compared to
Western religions the percentage of Hindus who have exclusive and intolerant ideas about
religion is very small. In fact most so called fundamentalist Hindus have a far more
liberal view of religion than orthodox or even liberal Christians and Muslims.
Many of the problems of modern India have been caused by socialism and communism. In this
regard the economic and social problems in India have their roots in centuries of foreign
domination that causes making efforts to improve themselves. This has been aggravated by
the prevalence of anti-Hindu ideological movements, like Communism, Christianity and
Islam, which still maintain a strong missionary presence in India.
What the English language news media of India portrays as a battle between modern secular
liberals and backward Hindu fundamentalists is more commonly a struggle between a corrupt
and rigid communist-socialist elite and traditional Hindu spiritual groups concerned with
the real welfare of the country. |
