There
are many examples of the same phenomenon, a Hindu indifference to
the media that puts Hindus at a disadvantage even in their own
country. What Hindus need today, in fact what the whole world needs is an
intellectual Kshatriya or intellectual warrior class (Bauddhika
Kshatriya). It needs a group of dedicated workers and activists who
uphold the Dharma against this media and information onslaught.
Such
individuals must be above commercial manipulation and
self-promotion, working tirelessly to counter this disinformation
flood.
Yet this movement must start in India and in the Hindu community
itself to be really credible. For example, when Hindus in America
complained against media distortions of Hindu groups in India to the
New York Times they were told that the information came from Delhi
itself. Clearly the change must start in India to have any real
effect, but this can be aided by the activities of Hindus all over
the world.
In
India the English language media is generally anti-Hindu and often
pro-Marxist. The universities in India are frequently dominated by
professors whose heart is not in the Dharma of their country but in
Western materialism. Kerala and Bengal today remain under the yoke
of communist governments. In Kerala Hindu workers are being killed.
In Bengal Hindu sadhus are commonly attacked. It is no wonder that
Hindus outside of India are subject to oppression, when Hindus in
India itself are not safe or secure.
