The dogma of Hindu parents

Have you ever faced such a situation where your parents tried to stop you when you want to do something for dharma and country? I think many of us might have faced such a situation.

But why do they do so? Is it a lack of love for their country or dharma?
Or is it too much attachment to their offsprings and not letting them serve the motherland to whom we are indebted.

Whatever may be the reason but it is definitely not working towards building up the Hindu Rashtra. Today if a kid wants to join the army or become a monk there is an uproar from their peers. In many cases, parents don't want to send their offsprings for such higher causes rather subjugates them to settle for a corporate job.

Alright, there is a factor of love and affection towards your child which can be considered of not letting them go but do you really think that will work for the future of Hindus.

The parents who opt for the option of not inspiring or letting their offsprings pick up such a path can be nationalistic or even wants the dharma to flourish but not at the cost of their child.

Jijabai with Shivaji Maharaj

Everyone wants a Bhagat Singh to be born, but not in their house! They would rather it be in the neighbor’s house.

There is no doubt that such a path is full of thorns and one has to go through several hardships but this is how it is. Establishing good days ahead does demand some kind of hardships. But the question is then who is willing to sign up for hardships for the welfare of the community.

Imagine if Rajmata Jijabai would have asked Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj not to raise the sword for dharma or Bhagat Singh's parents would have acted as an obstacle for him to fight for the sake of the nation what would have been the situation for us now?

A Jihadis mother’s conviction

A few years back when Burhan Wani was killed by the Indian army his mother was proud of him. This is what her reply was to the question asked by a journalist:-
Q. The Indian media calls Burhan a terrorist. As a mother, what do you feel when you hear your son being labeled as a terrorist?
Ans. I know my son is not a terrorist. He is a Mujahid, a freedom fighter. Nobody changes that.

Now imagine the guts of this lady whose son is a terrorist and still, she faces all the odds and proudly defends his acts. Here I do not mean to glorify such demons but the point I want to make here is this is who we plan to fight.

“If you know the enemy and you know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.

Without knowing the enemy and the fight they are willing to take how do we expect to defeat them.

Let us discuss an incident which will show you how vulnerable our society is for the people who dedicate their life for the sake of dharma.

A few years back India TV did a full show for 3 straight days challenging Iskcon on why they make brahmacharis? The show reached many homes across the country and the person who joined as a monk was projected as a heartless man who left his parents.

I wonder why these so-called exposing the truth media brigade hesitate to take interviews of parents of the love jihad victim. Maybe too scared of the radical brigade or it will compromise their secularism image.

Imagine if PM Modi would have not taken the path of celibacy and his mother would have acted as an obstacle today there would be no Narender Modi.

Every Hindu parent who thinks that this dharma should be established across every corner of this world then they better be ready for preparing dharmic warriors in their homes.

No power on this existence can stop the saffron to flourish across the world if a Hindu takes a vow to dedicate their one child either to country or dharma.

Jai Shree Ram!!!
