Part-1.

A Hindu Swami to talk. A Hindu temple for its background. A crowded hall of a Hindu audience, and the subject for discussion. " Let Us Be Hindus." Strange! It sounds like a ridiculous paradox and a meaningless contradiction. I can very well see that you are surprised at the audacity of this sadhu (swami)!\

It has become a new fashion with the educated Hindu to turn up his nose and sneer in contempt at the very mention of his religion in any discussion. Personally, I too belong in my sympathies to these critics of our religion. But when this thoughtless team begins to declare that we would benefit ourselves socially and nationally by running away from our sacred religion, I pause to reconsider my own stand.

At the present state of moral, ethical and cultural degradation in our country, to totally dispose off religion would be making our dash to ruin the quicker. However decadent our religion may be, it is far better than having none at all. My proposal is that the wise thing would be for us to try and bring about a renaissance of Hinduism so that under its greatness – proved through many centuries – we may come to grow into the very heights of culture and civilization that was ours in the historical past.

No doubt, in India, Hinduism has come to mean nothing more than a bundle of sacred superstitions, or a certain way of dressing, cooking, eating, talking, and so on. Our gods have fallen to the mortal level of administration officers at whose altars the faithful Hindu might pray and get special permits for the things he desires; that is, if he pays the required fee to the priest!

Note : -

                  Sri  Gopalakrishnan Narayanan  said that There are 5+2 enemies to Hinduism :

They are -

1, Hindus themselves, because they do not know Bharathiya samskaram, do not study our scriptures, and do not practice what said in them, and in reality live IN IGNORANCE and die as IGNORANT !

2. Second Communists, 95% of them are Hindus, still they knowingly degrade our Paithrukam!!

3. Third are Christians, when they are in minority status, demand benefits in terms of their status, and rule the majority Hindus, while abusing and rejecting our Samskaram!!!

4. Fourth are Muslims, in the same way, as Christians,  when they are minority they demand secularism, and enjoy benefits over Hindus, rejecting our National anthem, Vande Matharam, Surya Namaskaram, litting of lamps etc, !!!!

5. Fifth Yuktiwadi, the logical sensors argue on any thing and everything against Hinduism, destroy our Samskaram!!!!!

6. The Intellectual, critisize everything of Hinduism, spread lies!!!!!!

7. Congress, the seventh group stepping in all the above groups, and take advantage to score against Hindus!!!!!!!
