Description
"The Battle for Bharat" by Mukundan P.R. discusses the origins and evolution of Hindu Nationalism, tracing its roots back to Vedic literature and the ancient civilization of India, which is said to descend from Manu, the patriarch of humanity. It highlights significant dynasties and the cultural lineage of India, which produced numerous sages, poets, astronomers, and rulers, enriching the civilization. India, referred to as Bharat, is portrayed as the birthplace of four major dharmic religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism. The book emphasizes the divine character attributed to the motherland in Hindu thought, with references to ancient texts that celebrate the sacredness of the land and its rivers. Patriotism is elevated to a religious duty, integrating love for the motherland into the spiritual fabric of Hindu culture.The book also contrasts Hindu nationalism with other forms of nationalism, asserting that Hindu identity is tied to the land of India. It references V.D. Savarkar's definition of a Hindu as someone for whom India is both fatherland and holy land, distinguishing Hindus from followers of Christianity and Islam, which are considered foreign religions. The book explains the tensions between Hindu nationalism and the exclusivist beliefs of Abrahamic religions, advocating for the protection of the Sanatana Dharma, which embodies a non-dogmatic, inclusive approach to spirituality. It highlights the interplay between political Islam, Hindu nationalism, and the historical context of Christian missions in India.However, for the 'Battle for India' to succeed, the theological and ethical basis of Hinduism has to be redefined so that it is acceptable to all people. Hinduism or Sanatana Dharma should truly represent the aspirations of the whole of mankind. The book explores the fundamental basis of Hindu Dharma, contrasting the traditional view of the Trimurti as creators with the concept of Manu as the supreme Creator in Hindu philosophy. According to Navajyoti Sri Karunakara Guru, the Trimurti system has overshadowed the original understanding of Manu as the true Creator. In essence, the basis of Hindu Dharma is not the Trimurti but Manu, the Cosmic Purusha, who is the true Creator, according to the Vedic and Upanishadic teachings. The Guru calls for a return to this original understanding and highlights the importance of following the path of epochal Gurus for spiritual evolution and liberation.
