Politically-correct Buddhist/ agnostic/ rationalist/ secularist theses are serious threats

Since yesterday we are listening to paeans for Mayawati, and her so called lethal Dalit-plus-Brahmin combination, sung by our TV news-channels. The euphoria over a decisive electoral victory is understandable but the warnings must not be glossed over.
  • Brahminhood (not necessarily by birth) represents custodianship of the Vedic enlightenment which can’t be compromised or bartered away for a few pieces of silver or crumbs of power.
  • The Vedic nisus, as represented by the thought and action of The Mother and Sri Aurobindo in the present age, is a perpetual war against nihilism and hence there can’t be any joining of hands with Dr. Ambedkar and his Buddhism.
  • Allied politically-correct cohorts espousing agnostic/ rationalist/ secularist theses are also serious threats despite their decent logic couched in unbeatable eloquence.
  • Not to forget the hypocrisy and bankruptcy of ideas of the Hindutva bandwagon that is singularly responsible for bringing a bad name to the great Indian civilization.

In such a circumstance, Savitri Erans will have to be extremely cautious as to their sympathies, support and casting of votes. Let us not forget that the issue of stigma for siding with the Nazis is still raised against even great persons like Heidegger, Paul de Man, and Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose. [TNM]
