Where have so many invaders suddenly come from to attack Sanatan Dharma?
Ever since the beginning of religion in human life on earth, the world’s oldest religion ‘Sanatan Dharma’ has made a very valuable contribution in making man a social creature living together.
The chessboard for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections has been laid in the country, politicians are very desperate to win over the voters in their favor at any cost. Due to which, nowadays some politicians are not desisting from harming the unity, integrity and social and religious fabric of the country with their absurd statements. Such bold politicians are now not shying away from targeting even ‘Sanatan Dharma’ to fulfill their momentary political interests. However, these few people, under the influence of ego, are forgetting that ‘Sanatan Dharma’ is the soul, the core identity of our beloved India, at least they should not target it for their petty politics, but they still do not desist. Today, once again some people in the country have started talking about ending ‘Sanatan Dharma’ in public forums. But these people forget that the Muslim rulers, the British government and the Christian missionaries also used various tactics for thousands of years to eradicate ‘Sanatan Dharma’, which had been working since ancient times on the basis of the basic mantra of truth, non-violence, charity etc., from the world. Had adopted, but still he could not end this ‘Sanatan Dharma’ and could not stop the flag of ‘Sanatan Dharma’ from flying in the world.
In fact, speaking nonsense in the name of freedom of expression has become a fashion in our country these days. The way today in our dear country India, some responsible people are making various kinds of wild, factless statements about ‘Sanatan Dharma’, can such false or true statements be made about any other religion or religion? These politicians and people have the courage to say this. Today, in order to serve their vote bank, these few politicians are not desisting from targeting ‘Sanatan Dharma’ and are engaged in deceiving the public against ‘Sanatan Dharma’ by creating a new false definition without facts.
Whereas the bitter truth about ‘Sanatan Dharma’ is that due to reasons like truth, non-violence, charity, tolerance etc., ‘Sanatan Dharma’ is widely accepted among the common people in the country and the world since ancient times. This is the only religion in the world in which talk is based on truth, if there is talk of soul then there is also talk of God. Whereas our adored Lord Ram and Krishna etc. are in the male form, then they are also present in the female form of Mother Durga-Lakshmi and are worshiped with respect. Whereas in ‘Sanatan Dharma’ there are living beings, animals and humans, there is also the divine supernatural nature present on earth. There is so much simplicity in ‘Sanatan Dharma’ that any person can be a follower of ‘Sanatan Dharma’ with full authority even without knowing the Vedas, Puranas, Mantras etc. The biggest quality of ‘Sanatan Dharma’ is that its followers are both theists and atheists who believe in God. The biggest feature of ‘Sanatan Dharma’ is that even in the temples established in our homes, there are many idols of different types of gods and goddesses and there is so much simplicity in the religion that even members of a family worship different gods and goddesses. May be a worshiper of gods. By worshiping different Gods and Goddesses together in the same puja house, the world’s oldest religion ‘Sanatan Dharma’ gives the message of unity to the society every moment despite diversities. In a religion in which nature, water, land, air and fire, which have an important place in people’s lives, are also worshipped. The religion which teaches every one of its followers that you should behave with any human being or animal in the same way as you yourself want others to behave with you. Today some ignorant people are dreaming of destroying the religion which is considered to be the mother of all religions. They are making baseless and absurd allegations against the great ‘Sanatan Dharma’ of discriminating against people.
Anyway, all these so-called statement makers of our country should understand that ‘Sanatan Dharma’ means that which is eternal, which is true forever, the things which have eternal importance in our lives, the same things are said in ‘Sanatan Dharma’. Has been. That is why the world believes that truth is eternal, God is the truth, soul is the truth, salvation is the truth and the religion which tells the path of this truth ‘Sanatan Dharma’ is also the truth. That truth which has been prevalent in the world since ancient times and which will never end. If seen, the basic elements of ‘Sanatan Dharma’ – truth, non-violence, mercy, forgiveness, charity, chanting, penance, Yama-Niyam etc. have eternal importance in the life of every person and this fact existed before the rise of all other religions of the world. These were propounded in the Vedas by our sages. Still, some people harbor in their hearts the desire to end such a great religion. These people have to understand that since ancient times, ‘Sanatan Dharma’ works to teach every person the art of living a disciplined life, and not to spread poison among the people. But now the people of the country will also have to understand that a few politicians repeatedly offer their ‘wooden pots’ for the vote bank, which will have to be stopped now and people who will work in the interest of the country and society will have to be taken forward, then The shop of hatred of the leaders who spew venom again and again will be closed and the objectives of ‘Sanatan Dharma’ for the human world will be fulfilled.
