Live Positive Dynamic Hinduism
Theme: Live a life of a true positive hindu. We should be hindu by conviction not by raction. We should remember our age old sanskar and practice it in our day to day life.
Detailed Explanation:
Hindu cannot be defined.In a way, we are ‘anadi’, without a beginning. To define such a people is impossible. Human take birth again and again so long as the least trace of ignorance of his true Divine self remains and in every birth he will be able to make further progress if he makes honest efforts. We believe that all is not over with this present life. Our philosophy says, do your work, do your duty in a selfless spirit.
On other countries military hero, king is worshiped while in our land great heroes have worshiped the dust of the feet of half naked sanyasins. This is because of our realization that inner being alone is abiding. We should be hindu by conviction not by reaction.We should be keenly conscious in our day-to-day life of our Hindu heritage and should mould every little aspect of our life in keeping with those great traditional values.
A person can be either Hindu or a communist. He cannot be both. We are organising Hindus not to counter Muslims. Even if muslims were not there, we would have taken up this work if we had found Hindus in the same disorganised, self-forgetful condition as present.
It is of no use to talk of Hindu Nationhood and Hindu way of life without following those sanskars. There is a story of sadhu. His mother use to wake up early in the morning and reciting in her melodious voice about the glory of the Divine mother of the universe. Those words he use to listen immediately after he woke up. Which gave him faith and strength to resist all the wordly temptations and devote to the service of the Mother. This is Hindu sanskar.A Hindu is born to be trained in a life-long course of discipline and self-restraint, which purify and strengthen him to reach the Supreme Goal in life.
In the name of modernisation we have forgot our sanskar. We take pride in it but don't follow anything. We are having living example of Lord Rama, Shivaji, Vivekanand which were not touched by this kind of modernisation.
Family is the first self-expansion. Then, all the various duties which need to be fulfilled as part of family. Lord Rama fulfilled all his duties whether it is of a son, a brother, husband, student very very well. The the hindu tradition, the shishya looks up to the guru as the very embodiment of knowledge and divinity and behaves towards him in a spirit of humility and devotion.
Even if, by chance, there is a conflict with our elders on points of ideology, our respectful behaviour towards them need not change. In the Mahabharata war, when Bhishma and Arjuna faced each other, Arjuna directed his first five arrows to the feet of Bhishma. The charioteer of Bhishma was amazed to see Arjuna’s unfailing arrows falling at Bhishma’s feet instead of striking his chest. Bhishma said "My beloved Arjuna is prostrating before me with all his five pranas seeking my blessings".
Let us not forget our old puranic stories. In each stories there lies the touch of our culture.
Bhagawad Gita says:
Even death while performing one's own dharma brings blessedness, taking to another's dharma is fraught with fearful consiquences.
