Hindus have experienced both historical and ongoing religious persecution and systematic violence, in the form of forced conversions, documented massacres, demolition and desecration of temples, as well as the destruction of educational centres. While massive in scale, some of these events may need to be viewed in their historical context and relative impact.

Wounds of the past continue to haunt the people. Without understanding the past, one can never fully understand the present. Therefore, this is an attempt to see a brief history of attacks on India - all done by foreigners. The aggressive design against India initiated in 636-37 AD by the Arabs and later on carried further by the groups from the Middle East, has been continuing intermittently for centuries. These attacks started within 14 years of the birth of Islam in AD 622, and within 4 years of the death of the Prophet of Islam in AD 632.

The Godhra carnage of 27th February, 2002 is not a product of the Ayodhya movement, or the Babri mosque demolition on 6th December, 1992. There may be more Godhras in store. India has been bleeding from a thousand wounds.  Belgium based world famous scholar, Dr. Koenraad Elst (b. 1959) has written:  “You  wouldn’t guess it from their polished convent-school English, their trendy terminology, or their sanctimoniousness, but the likes of Romila Thapar, Irfan Habib or Gyanendra Pandey have blood on their hands. The wave of Muslim violence after the Ayodhya demolition (and the boomerang of police repression and Shiv Sena retaliation) was at least partly due to the disinformation by supposed experts, who denied that the disputed building had a violent iconoclastic prehistory, and implied that Hindus can get away with concocted history in their attacks on innocent mosques. This disinformation gave Muslim militants the sense of justification needed to mount a ‘revenge’ operation and to mobilize Muslims for acts of violence.

Many Muslims genuinely believe that Islam spread in India due to Sufi saints and that Muslim rulers were tolerant or else the whole of India would have converted to Islam.  Of course, this is wrong. Swami Vivekananda (1863-1902) said: “Hindu population as quoted by Farishta, one of the earliest Muslim historians, was 60 crores (i.e. 600 million) and today we are only 20 crores (i.e. 200 million)”. Complete Works , Vol.  5, p. 233).  Former editor of The Indian Express , Magsaysay award winner, and ex-Disinvestment Minister of India, Arun Shourie (1941-) also quoted Swami Vivekananda as saying this in an article written on 31 January 1993.

According to Wikisource this is also mentioned in a letter written by Swami Vivekananda to Miss Mary Hale on 30th October, 1899 recorded in his Complete Works, Volume 8, Epistles- Fourth Series CXLV.

Well-known historian, Dr. K. S. Lal (1920-2002) has written in his book Growth of Muslim Population in India  that according to his calculations, the Hindu population  in India  declined by 80 million from AD 1000 to AD 1525, perhaps the biggest ever holocaust in human history.  This does not mean a mere 80 million killings.  Some  estimates put the number  of Hindus  killed  in India as 280 million  while  Swami  Vivekananda  opined  that  the  number  was more than 400 million  (Hindus reducing from 60 crores to 20 crores). The point is, many Muslims even today believe themselves as victims and deny the crimes committed by Muslims against others. For example, a shockingly large number of Muslims including well-educated, well-to-do people genuinely believe that 9/11 attacks on USA were done by Jews to make USA target Muslims, or by the USA Government itself. Same is the case with Godhra and many other cases like 26/11, where many simply deny that Islamic fanatics did these crimes and genuinely believe it.

Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan has compiled Indian history in 11 volumes and the project was financed by the Jawaharlal Nehru Government (who no one can ever accuse of being ‘communal’). The chief editor is world- famous historian, the late R.C. Majumdar (1888-1980), who was Vice-President of the International Commission set up by UNESCO for the history of mankind and is one of the most respected historians. The Volumes on Indian history are contributed by many eminent historians, including those from the then East Pakistan (Bangladesh) and West Pakistan. To see the past, we simply quote Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan’s The History and Culture of the Indian People . It is hoped that these authentic quotes make everyone (Indian Muslims included) realize the truth of Islam’s spread and atrocities on Hindus.

All these were foreigners’ attacks on India. But even after the end of the foreign Muslim rule and during the British rule there were numerous riots between Hindus and Muslims in India. In many of these riots before 1947 Hindus suffered far more than Muslims. Even Mahatma Gandhi had to acknowledge this. He is reported to have said:

“There is no doubt in my mind that in the majority of quarrels the Hindus come out second best. But my own experience confirms the opinion that the Mussalman as a rule is a bully, and the Hindu as a rule is a coward. I have noticed this in railway trains, on public roads, and in the quarrels which I had the privilege of settling. Need the Hindu blame the Mussalman for his cowardice? Where there are cowards, there will always be bullies…But I, as a Hindu, am more ashamed of Hindu cowardice than I am angry at the Mussalman bullying… “

The source quoted is “Hindu-Muslim Tension: Its Cause and Cure”,  Young India , 29/5/1924; reproduced in M.K. Gandhi:  The Hindu-Muslim Unity , p.35-36.

In 1921 in Malabar Moplahs committed horrible atrocities on Hindus, thousands were killed and thousands converted. In 1926 Swami Shraddhananda was murdered by a man named Abdul Rashid. And in 1946, on 16 August was the Direct Action Day of the Muslim League, and this saw the great Calcutta killings. At the same time, horrible Naokhali riots were also seen.

The past is, never ever, far from the present. Hindus suffered horribly at the hands of foreigners for many centuries. This is just a brief summary. The horrid, lurid details of these events will make one’s hair stand on end.

The world knows about the barbaric holocaust of 6,000,000 Jews by Hitler’s Nazi Germany during World War II, over 4 years between 1941 and 1945. Many such atrocities on Hindus got buried. Shocked? Yet, Hindus tolerate. How many (especially Hindus) know about the Hindu Genocide? Sadly, the answer is – Not many.

Naturally, the next question comes, why is that? How is that even possible? It is possible because these incidents were strategically erased. Nothing is a coincidence nor abrupt nor accidental. A dark strategic intention is behind all of it.

It changed the culture forever. Additionally, post-Gandhi-era Hindus were largely handicapped by the “Non-Violent” term. Hindus never attacked any country, nor forcibly converted people, nor proselytized, nor unnecessarily hurt anyone.

Hindus are not safe in their own land of India for 1000s of years.

When Hindus were killed in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, they took shelter in India. Some moved to foreign countries. Currently, a systemic campaign of attack has been launched by the globalists, Islamists, and communists against global Hindus. Frequently Hindus are killed, raped, converted (in some part of the geography). Although liberal-leftist media’s silence is disturbing, it certainly is not shocking. Nightmare, pain, torture, vilification, intimidation, sufferings, and terror continue for Hindus. Stunning distortion, massive bias and constant falsification of truth, and deliberate misinformation advanced to the current age. Ironically, you will seldom see anything positive about Hindus.

Where must Hindus go next, if Hindus are unable to live in their own land? How long Hindus must be killed and shamed as worthless-insignificant creatures?

Our ancestors, Hindus, were brilliant, intelligent, and educated; furthermore had vast inner knowledge of our existence. Spiritually Hindus are the toughest, built with a tremendous capacity of tolerance and the highest capabilities of acceptance. Hindus can bend and “get up” regardless of what is thrown at them.

“1000s of years of foreign invasion and epic loot of Sone Ki Chidiya (Golden Bird: from wealth to wisdom, from arts-agriculture-astrology to architecture, from spirituality-science to social construct, from Kohinoor to karma, from mathematics-medicine to music, from button to board games, from consciousness to creativity) took a mighty toll; and severely crushed and drowned Hindus and India into the abyss of poverty.”

It changed the culture forever. Additionally, post-Gandhi-era Hindus were largely handicapped by the “Non-Violent” term. Hindus never attacked any country, nor forcibly converted people, nor proselytized, nor unnecessarily hurt anyone. Violence was/ is never a daily/ weakly lesson for the Hindus, unlike other communities. Hindu temples do not teach Hindus to differentiate non-Hindus nor they advocate to commit heinous activities. Even speaking about the horrid incidents is colossally painful for the Hindus. Hence, Hindus do not usually speak about any atrocities that occurred on them and, sadly did not educate their next generation – this was the titanic failure of Hindus. It was/ is one of those peaceful (unspoken) principles of “Forget it and move on“. And…They said nothing. And, generations were kept out of the crucial knowledge.

Since the formation of ‘India’ with a new “border” drawn in 1947, under the socialist-communist and Islamist-pacifier political party, political elites elevated 5 Muslim education ministers, out of the first 9 education ministers. Out of the first 30 years of new Hindu India land, Muslims were placed as Education ministers for ~20 years. This happened on the land of Hindus, (and on the HINDUS) when the Muslims declared they could not live with Hindus, and Demanded and Divided our Hindu land, forcibly. And Hindus tolerated it (got killed on a grand scale in violent riots). And during those formative years of India, substantial efforts were placed (in all planes) to control the narrative to ensure, Hindu history is buried and the truth is hidden. Tactics such as eliminating history, hiding-lying-twisting facts, glorifying invaders, vilifying Hindus were exercised extensively to retain heavy control over the education system to keep Hindus in dark forever.

This perhaps played the heaviest role in shaping narratives and subverting Indian Hindu (Indic-Sanatana) culture.

Widespread politics of the education system certainly had an irreversible negatives effect on Hindus and India’s capabilities. The monumental level of appeasement of the minority to keep the communal harmony was placed on Hindus’ shoulders. Like it was always the Hindus’ responsibility to stay mum when Hindus were constantly getting the short end of the stick. It has been an age-old lopsided disastrous situation for Hindus, particularly a very long excruciatingly painful and agonizing period.

On top of that, the natural tendencies, individuality, and dharmik (spiritual and righteousness) nature of Hindus created a society with no organization.

Sporadic, decentralized, non-violent Hindus did not take to the streets and nor fought for their rights. Hindus were exploited, still are, by various special interest groups who are not in favor of Hindus, Hindu history, Hindu heritage.

For every 10 leftist anti-Hindu media outlets, there might be one 1 pro-Hindu outlet. That too, with no substantial outreach. Often ridiculed, attacked, shamed, intimidated, and threatened by the rest, these minuscule outlets have little to no impact. Cinema, writeups, music, arts, corporations, businesses (essentially, all industries) were gradually taken over by Islamists, atheists, and communist dictators’ agendas. Should this be tolerated any further? Is it even morally right to let bygones be bygones? Imagine, losing your home, family, and livelihood to invaders. This practically happened to Hindus.

Projected Change in Global Population between 2010 and 2050

Islamists have a tremendous influence on global politics. Today ~35% of countries are Islamic countries, the majority are Christian countries, some are Buddhist countries, in the world. Hindus and Buddhists are declining, Christians will remain the same, and Islam is the fastest-growing religion in the world. A great visual of world population by religion from 1800 to 2100 is created by Grain of Truth. A screenshot of the world population of 2100 is here (full graphic presentation of the above graph can be seen here. Islam is projected to surpass Christianity in 2070.

Hindus are 15.16% of the world’s population. With 1.16 billion Hindus globally, (the largest in India), Hindus are unable to defend the land, the culture, the history, and the heritage. Who is to blame for the Hindus’ pathetic condition today? Politics? Invasion? Islam? British? Communism? Secularism? Appeasement? Hindus’ tendencies? Lack of courage? Lack of organization? Lack of skills?

Regardless of what/ who is blamed, Hindus are in a terribly grave state. No Country. No Defence. No ability to defend the land, culture, community, faith, history, and heritage. No one even knows what Hindus went through. No One Cares. It is up to the Hindus to rise for one goal of defending Hindus and protecting the land of Hindus.
