Суд над Бхагавад-гитой / Attempt to ban Bhagavad-gita

For every Indian and any Indian (Indian includes Hindu, Muslim, Christian . .. and so many others), the possibility of Gita (in its any form . . . even in its worst form) being branded as a text which can support extremism, has come as a surprise.

Hindus (including Sanatan Dharma/ jainism/ Buddhism/ Sikkhism and all other religions/ sects originated from this part of the land - in essence all have the supremacy of human intellect as the core value - the religions based on discourse) for last 2, 500 years, more so at present all over the world, have faced the dictating/ instructing religions and have found themselves at disadvantage of no single "instruction"! Although when we are at home/ in safe heavens/ not dependent for our livelihood or other issues essential for life (for example if we are not made to pay jajiya tax), we are the best . . . has been proved many times . . . including in Chicago where fire balzed from the tongue on September 11, 1893. But when we are humbled by our livelihood requirements, which is the situation for our migrant populations, an authoritative guideline is needed to counter those who preach and dictate and claim that all those who dont believe in "my" almighty, is a sinner . . . will go to hell . . . will be punished . . . and for that they are waiting for their "final day".

"I am the only master"! "Everything originates from me and everything dissolves in me"!

Nowhere else in Hinduism before Gita such authoritative statements are made (after Gita authoritative statements are made in Manusmriti).

Many a times (rather for ancient litterateurs most of the time) understanding the statement becomes difficult in-spite of knowing the word meanings . . . . More so in present world where everything is being analyzed and preached as suitable to the preacher and their sponsrer!

Although most of the Indian preachers as well as the listeners understand this and this ambiguity is in the air of the ambiance . . . . everyone remembers that India is the land where almighty has descended to show the way . . . so many times . . . and its not always easy to understand the gods . . . But if some one among us need to counter those who claim that only their ghost messengers say the truth and that the almighty cant take a human shape . . . we have Gita as the best text with us which can accompany us "I am the only truth!"

ISKCON is "located" among the frontiers of such psychological jehad. If its literature has made someone (who follow the ghosts) to feel that they spread extremism, I dont wonder at all. Because the extremism which they have been following in their lives has met its superior . . .

Starting from opposing the human intellect in giving a shape to the almighty (up to the extent of wiping out streams of lateral thinking perennially) by the order of the ghosts, to the seizures of equating the world at the monetary level, all to be done at the swords' end . . . they are the ones following extremism . . . for thousands of years . . .

Its only the ghost of fear of getting defeated in long run and the habit of finding fault only with others which has made them feel that Gita is extremist . . .

Yes, Gita has NO potential to support extremism . . . because Gita is the only truth!
