Dear Dennis Bernstein,
[ dbernstein@igc.org,
Angana@aol.com, achatterji@ciis.edu, cause@Indiacause.org ]
Here is some fundamental information for you to study about India and Hinduism.
This is by a Western Media Analyst that has lived (in) India for 30 years.
Please read about the person that knows India better than ill informed Indians
like Prof. Angana Chatterji (whom your radio station gave coverage and who
is using her venomous anti-hindu agenda to spoil American minds about 5000 year
old civilization called hinduism)
http://www.indiacause.com/FG_Columns.htm
Please read what he wants to talk about India & Indians after burning of train.
http://www.indiacause.com/FG_PoorIndia.htm
Please also take some time to read an article by Muslim analyst about Hinduism.
Najid Hussain says:
“Most of the world knows Hinduism is a great philosophy and Hindus are some of
the best people on earth. It is Hinduism that gave us leaders like Swami
Vivekanand and Mahatma Gandhi. It is only Hindu philosophy that believes
in the ultimate unity of all religions at the highest level of our intellect.
And it is only the Hindu faith that truly understands that the differences
amongst different religions exist only at the lower levels of our existence --
the lower the level, the larger the difference.”

Let me give some basic facts about Hinduism:
This is the only religion in this world that respects every religion equally.
This is the religion that has tolerated Islamic fundamentalism for more than
1000 years in India (millions of Hindus have been killed at the hands of Muslims
in the name of religion).
Hinduism does not have concept of infidels. Islam calls for destruction of
infidels and Christianity is the milder version of the same philosophy about
infidels. “-- the lower the level, the larger the difference”
I hope you are aware about the mothers celebrating the sons going for suicide
missions. India and hinduism has never produced suicide bombers in their history
of 5000 years. We can talk endlessly, but do not wish to spend too much of time
and space on this issue at this moment of time.
Hope you shall give ‘Cause We Care’ the opportunity to explain the root cause of
Gujarat and the Kashmir on your radio station soon.
And this will mean an unbiased approach of your radio station which claims
"speaking truth to power". Here is the time for all of us to speak (and
understand) the truth!!!!
Dennis Bernstein's reply:
So "Cause We Care" feels that only your Hindi God is righteous and all other beliefs are false and should be done away with. It sounds like if you righteous people had the chance, you'd kill anyone who disagreed with you and feel justified. Is this correct? This sounds like you all are full of the venomous hatred you accuse dr Chatterji of.

Our reply explaining him his ill-knowledge about Hinduism
Dear Mr.DB,
Thanks for your immediate reply (I am waiting for your reply on the other mail
too). I hope you can read and understand your own language called ENGLISH well.
Let me repeat what I said in my earlier mail (please read it again) and as
expected you ignored everything of the following:
--------------
“Hinduism is the only religion in this world that respects every religion
equally”
“Hinduism does not have concept of infidels.”
Najid Hussain says: “Most of the world knows Hinduism is a great philosophy and
Hindus are some of the best people on earth.”
--------------
This seems to have hurt you too much. Is it not? You also could not answer the
other mail I sent you.
The reason is: you have no answers because of your blind bias against India and
Hinduism.
THE FACT IS: TRUTH DID HURT YOU AT THE BOTTOM OF YOUR HEART!!!!!
You were also hurt to read the fact the world knows and experiences every day
about Islamic fundamentalism, barbarism and Jihad. Or was it the statement about
infidels that hurt you?
Unfortunately none of my statements talked about what you interpreted (with your
great knowledge of English) "Cause We Care feels that only your Hindi God is
righteous and all other beliefs are false and should be done away with. It
sounds like if you righteous people had the chance, you'd kill anyone who
disagreed with you and feel justified.”
For your basic knowledge:
Hinduism does not have limited concepts like “Hindi God”, “Christian God”,
“American God”, “My god” or “Your God”. For hinduism The God is a universal
manifestation of truth to which every human being on this earth has equal access
(I repeat: we do not have infidels)
My dear Mr.DB: YOU WANT TO HEAR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN AND NOT THE TRUTH!!!!
Probably its time for you to withdraw the statement on your website. “Speaking
truth to power". If you can not accept the truth you have no right to talk about
this sacred word.
I hope you shall reply and shall get more opportunity to get better knowledge of
the word called “TRUTH”
