Quote – Unlike other countries, India can claim that philosophy in ancient India was not an auxiliary to any other science or art, but always held a prominent position of independence” "In all the fleeting centuries of history in all the vicissitudes through which India has passed, a certain marked identity is visible.

Now Gandhi. His basic text is ‘Hind Swaraj’. He it wrote in 1909. As late as in 1938 [July 13, 1938] Gandhi said that “after thirty stormy years though which I have since passed, I have seen nothing to make me alter the views expounded in Hind Swaraj Gandhi said: “We were one nation before the British came. One thought inspired us. Our mode of life was the same. It is because we were one nation they could establish one kingdom. Subsequently they divided us” and explained how we were one nation

This long thread challenges the detractors of RSS who have been abusing it for decades as chauvinist & anti-Muslim. By confronting them with the unchallengeable truth about the RSS philosophy which they either don't know or they conceal The context is self-evident. The RSS just entered its Centenary year on Vijay Dasami Day last week. As an RSS insider and as one in public life for 5 decades without accepting any position I owe a duty to tell the public about what the RSS is.

In an arguably most statesmanly Vijya Dasami address founded on high moral ethical and nationalist grounds the RSS Chief Mohan surveyed the entire global and national scenarios, issues challenges and responses which the Prime Minister Modi tweeted as a must listen one. Important takeaways from it are: Dharma not religion is the foundation of Bharat; Hindu Dharma is universal;our diversity is used to create divisions amongst us to dominate without physical presence; deep state, wokeism cultural Marxism are a great danger. Here are some extracts

My last meeting with Iravatham Mahadevan. He used to call me his colleague in pursuit of truth. We always disagree on his view Indus valley as pre Vedic. In 1978 When we were looking at an Indus seals he said "Guru this matches with Somapana Yagna in Rig Veda" Image He submitted his finding as a paper in an epigraphist meet in Tokyo in 1983. He began to view the Indus civilization as convergent with Vedic civilization at some stage. He tracer Bharat name is in Indus seals. We discussed this in his unpublished papers in his last days

A great nationalist, a believing and practising who valued the RSS when he was in Congress. When he told Indira you have harmed the nation by splitting the Congress she asked him are you my friend or my enemy. Goenka said the choice os yours and walked out. This began their war It lasted for 8 years. It reached fight to the finish stage during Emergency when I joined Goenka as his adviser. She almost finished him and he united all opposition under JP and finished her and Emergency at the end. H

Music Academy managed by few rich families has done the greatest harm to the cause of Carnatic music by giving Sangeeta Kalanidhi Award to TM krishna whose agenda is to destory the sastriya carnatic music. To help him to achive it MA has given a weapon to him. Congrats MA MA has been able to dominate musicians by its power bestowed by a real estate in the heart of the city. The music lovers reside within its stones throw. Remove it. MA will collapse. It is the real eatate power which makes MA relevant

Some media has reported I had apologised and the case was closed on that basis. The fact is: As my tweet asking whether justice muralidhar was P chidambaram's junior could have hurt him, i had said in 2018 i regret his hurt. But refused to apologise as it was not contempt. 1/3 I was summoned to the chamber of Justice Mrudul 4 years back. I told the same thing that it was no contempt. I will fight the case. As I had a strong case in law I refused to apologise. Complaints kept taking adjournments for 4 years. Finally court told them argue the case

People who talk about undeclared Emergency do not know what is Emergency. It is not Emergency if it is not declared, Fundamental rights not suspended, censorship imposed on media, Opposition leaders arrested, Courts are maimed, judges transferred against their will. More It will be no Emergency unless thousands are people are put in Jail under MISA like law which said no reasons for arrest need to be given. It is no emergency unless opposition state governments are dismissed, ruling party leaders are threatened, civil service is enslaved.

The Hindu has been shamed again. They attempted on 27 May to deny Sengol as transfer of power symbol but the adheenam forced them retract by citing it's own records. Again they made a similar attempt by misquoting the adheenakarta, which has been smashed by the Adheenam The Hindu attempt is unprofessional because it has not looked at Annex IV of the govt docket which is Adheenams version that Sengol was given to Mtbatten, given Gangajal Abhishekam & given to Nehru. Being forced to eat a humble pie then this time it has attempted a new trick

The Hindu report is reckless and the congress relying on the recklesd report shows that due to old age its institutional memory is failing. Now I will show how the Hindu is reckless if not dishonest The sole point in the Hindu article is is that evidence cited in govt docket for Sengol being symbolic of transfer of power and the Sengol being given to Mountbatten and then taken and given back to Nehru after it was purified by gangajal was thin. Wee egg on The Hindu face

Studies, including Islamic ones, show how love marriage plays a significant part in expanding Islam. In a paper titled “Demographic Islamization: Non-Muslims in Muslim Countries”, Philippe Fargues explains how Islamic nations have been Islamising through love and marriage. Fargues concludes: “Love was now playing the same role in the continuing process of Islamization that coercion played in the remote past.” (In Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies [SAIS] Review, Johns Hopkins University).

Thanks @ShashiTharoor ji. It is not whataboutry. The point I made is our democratic discourses have been internal during Nehru Indira and Rajiv times. We were quite capable of handling of even extreme dangers to democracy like an emergency even though the judiciary let us down Nothing like what Nehru did to put unreasonable restraint on freedom, to prevent judicial review has been attempted now. Nothing like horrible emergency to destroy democracy press or judiciary is even possible today. Nothing like Rajeev's infamous defamation law is on cards

Dear Shri Tharoor. @ShashiTharoor. Let us discuss. I will give you instances after instances of how the congress when ruling wanted to extinguish press freedom from the time of, believe me, Pandit Nehru Within 15 months after 26.1.1950 Nehru proposed the 1st amendment to article 19(2) for blanket restraint on press freedom without the word "reasonable" qualifying the restriction. Suryaprakash my colleague in the Indian express exposed it. See dailypioneer.com/2020/columnist…

Mr Rahul. Have you ever gone to Kala Pani. Savarkar was not in jail. He was in solitary cell lodged for 50, yes 50, years. He was 27 then. He was no peaceful. satyagrahi. He was a revolutionary. His icon was Shivaji. Not Gandhiji. His rules are strategic not legal rules. You know nothing about revolutionaries. Their goal was to win. They couldn't care less for means. Savarkar cheated the British many times. He was caught in a planned armed rebellion to over throw the British. The terrified British sent him to Andamans never to return. You know?

To supplement @svembu Economists need to go beyond economic theories to align national charteristics to policy making. No universally economic theory in operation today that is valid for all countries. Universal economic approach have been given up by global institutions 1/24 Post war OneSizeFitAll (OSFA) model "The measures for the development of underdeveloped countries" formulated in 1951 by a team of economists of Marx & Market persuasion (including VN Gadgil India) mandated a mix of what US & Russia had agreed.

The raid on PFI was meticulously planned. NIA had info about where which leader was, in which room he was sleeping, in which train & bogie he we travelling. In 45 mts in 90+ places in 20+ states, 100 leaders arrested to freeze the outfit leaving it leaderless. Brilliant The starting of the raids in early hours kept the media out of it to rob its capacity the show the raid and create trouble, the organisation sleeping, leaders waking up just get into the police van, and the cadre coming to know of it in the morning. Excellent strategy

Shocked and extremely pained to hear Shinzo Abe is shot and critical. Pray he survives the attack. In my brief interactions with him as Japanese PM as Chairman of the Vivekananda International Foundation I found him shockingly transparent. Just three instances 1/3 He asked our small group to look at the PM's house where we were ans the building around. He said PM house is only old, all others new; we have kept it as it is because this is where we signed surrender to US. We wanted to keep it as it is to remind ourselves about it. Profound
