*Why is the Sangh silent* Today when I went out for a morning walk, a friend, a staunch ritualistic Hindu gentleman accompanied me. Discussion of national and international issues and politics is everybody's favourite topic these days, so he too started talking about the situation from Kashmir to Kairana and from Kerala to Bengal. I kept listening quietly. Suddenly he said, "Hindus are troubled in these places. Why is the Sangh silent? What is the Sangh doing in this matter?" Now I had to answer. I asked, "What is the Sangh?" He said, "An organisation of Hindus." I asked again, "So you are a Hindu?" He said, "What kind of question is this? I am a staunch Sanatani Hindu." Then I asked, "So are you associated with the Sangh?" He said, "No." I asked again, "Is your son, grandson, great-grandson or any relative associated with the Sangh?" He said, "No. My son is busy in his job, my grandchildren are settled abroad, and my relatives are big businessmen. My children are busy in coaching." I said, "Does this mean that RSS is an organisation of all Hindus except you and your family?" He said in irritation, "What has happened to you today? What are you saying? This is not the situation of only me, 90% of the people of the country are busy in their work. Why are you pointing fingers at me?" I replied, "So according to you only 10% Hindus are associated with RSS?" He said, "No, everyone in our ward is Hindu, the population is around 10,000. But only 10-15 people are seen in the RSS branch in the morning, the rest are seen sometimes on festivals." I asked, "Have you ever met them?" He said, "No." I asked, "Have you ever helped them?" He said, "No." I asked, "Have you ever participated in their programs?" He said, "No." Then I said, "Then why so many expectations from the Sangh? Are all the people of the Sangh unemployed? Don't they have any work or family? You worry about your family and work, and they too worry about their family and work, along with people like you?" He got a little annoyed on hearing this. I said again, "Just because they say Bharat Mata Ki Jai and Vande Mataram, do you expect them to do everything? All the things that you all don't want to do despite being capable, should the people of the Sangh do it?" "Why should the people of the Sangh remain silent or neutral like you? Why should they leave their homes and families and live only for you?" "When they expect support from you, you consider them idle, ignore them, abuse them by calling them communal. They are busy in making their children's future, but don't take out time for the society and the country. If they are from a Hindu organization, then you are also a Hindu, then why is the duty that is theirs, not yours?" "Remember, Bhagat Singh and Azad had to face death because at that time 90% people like you were watching the tamasha. If these 90% Hindus had woken up then, the British would not have had the courage to hang them." "If today's Hindus had even a little awareness, some people would not have had the courage to oppose Vande Mataram and Bharat Mata ki Jai." After this entire conversation, I decided that from now on I will fully support the Sangh and participate in their programs. If possible, you too should take out some time and try in this direction. 🙏 Yahoo Mail: Search, Organize, Conquer <https://mail.onelink.me/107872968?pid=NativePlacement&c=Global_Acquisition_YMktg_315_EmailSignatureGrowth_YahooMail:Search,Organize,Conquer&af_sub1=Acquisition&af_sub2=Global_YMktg&af_sub3=&af_sub4=100000945&af_sub5=OrganizeConquer__Static_> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thatha_Patty" group.
