  The Great Unmasking: Confronting Hypocrisy and Superstition in Modern India In the final, fiery chapters of "Brahm Ka Pulinda," author Rajeev Patel moves beyond historical debates about ancient manuscripts and archaeological sites. He turns his lens toward the present, delivering a blistering critique titled "Exposure of Hypocrisy and Superstition" ( Paakhand aur Andhvishwas ka Khulasa ). Patel argues that the "bundle of delusions" isn't just a matter of dusty history—it is a living, breathing system of social control that dominates modern Indian life. Here is a breakdown of how these delusions manifest today and why Patel believes we must dismantle them to be truly free. 1. The Business of "Pakhhand" (Hypocrisy) Patel identifies hypocrisy as the primary tool used by what he calls the "delusion-creating gang" ( Bhramvadi Giroh ). He highlights the glaring double standards that define religious life: Selective Purity: The elite ...

  The Linguistic Heist: How the Corruption of Language Created the Caste System In the provocative work Bhram Ka Pulinda , author Rajeev Patel unveils a startling theory: the rigid hierarchies of Indian society weren't just born of law or religion, but through a deliberate "linguistic heist." In the pivotal chapter, "The End of Samyak Sanskriti and the Rise of Identity-Based Words," Patel argues that ancient India’s original, equitable culture was dismantled by a strategic manipulation of language. Here is a breakdown of how this "delusion-creating gang" transformed a meritocracy into a hereditary prison. 1. The Lost Era of Samyak Sanskriti (Balanced Culture) Patel describes an "original" Indian culture rooted in the Pali language and Prakrit traditions. This was a society defined by Guna-Vachak Shabda (Qualitative Words). In this era, words described what you did , not who you were born to . Merit over Birth: Terms like "wise,"...

MOHAN GURUSWAMY: The RSS is still in search of a genealogy that will connect it to the nationalist movement that won India its freedom. The truth is that the contemporary writings and speeches of RSS leaders have a very different story to tell. These leaders showed little enthusiasm for the anti-British struggle.  In the words of Guru Golwalkar, "There is another reason for the need of always remaining involved in routine work. There is some unrest in the mind due to the situation developing in the country from time to time. There was such unrest in1942. Before that there was the movement in 1930-31. At that time many other  people had gone to Doctorji. This 'delegation' requested Doctorji that this movement will give independence and Sangh should not lag behind. At that time,when a gentleman told Doctorji that he was ready to go to jail, Doctorji said,'Definitely go. But who will take care of your family then? That gentlemen told-'he has sufficiently a...

  In the book "Lakir Ka Fakir," authors Rajiv Patel and Sanjay Kumar Singh present a striking geopolitical and sociological critique of how Indian festivals are perceived. Their primary argument is that the concept of "National Festivals" is a carefully constructed myth designed to project a monolithic religious identity onto a diverse, regional, and agrarian landscape. The following analysis details the transition from regional folk practices to the "nationalized" versions we see today: 1. The Myth of Uniformity The authors state clearly that no "Brahminic" tradition has a truly national character. While a festival like Diwali or Holi is celebrated across India today, its methods, stories, and even the days of celebration varied wildly across regions before modern synchronization . Regional Specificity: Every tradition originally represented a specific local context—usually tied to a regional harvest, a local hero, or a specific climatic eve...

In the intellectual landscape of modern India, a burgeoning school of rationalist thought is beginning to challenge the very bedrock of the nation's cultural identity. At the forefront of this movement is the provocative work Lakir Ka Fakir (The Beaten Path), authored by Rajiv Patel and Sanjay Kumar Singh. By blending archaeological skepticism with sociological inquiry, the authors invite readers to step off the "beaten path" of inherited rituals and examine the structural integrity of the traditions they follow. The Myth of the National Tradition The book opens with a striking observation: there is no such thing as a truly "national" Indian festival. According to Patel and Singh, every traditional celebration currently practiced in India is regional in origin. The appearance of a monolithic "Brahminic" tradition is, they argue, a modern construct. Each festival represents a localized story that was eventually synchronized under a broader umbrella to ...

According to the sources, the account of the Greek ambassador Megasthenes provides a significant historical contradiction to the traditional Vedic Varna system because he observed a society structured into seven classes based on profession rather than four birth-based castes. Having spent 12 years at the court of Emperor Chandragupta Maurya, Megasthenes documented his observations in his book, Indica, which the sources use to challenge the antiquity of Brahminical social structures. The contradiction is detailed through the following points: 1. Numerical and Structural Difference The most direct contradiction is that Megasthenes identified seven distinct groups in Indian society, whereas the Vedic tradition insists on four Varnas (Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya, and Shudra). The seven classes he recorded were: • Philosophers/Wise Men (Vidwan Varg): Respected individuals who performed rituals for the state. • Farmers (Khetihar Varg): The largest segment of the population, who were exempt f...

  गीत: लोकतान्त्रिक जागरण (Song: Democratic Awakening) (मुखड़ा - Chorus) यह किसी जाति के विरुद्ध नहीं, यह हमारे अधिकारों की लड़ाई है, "अफ़र्मेटिव पार्टिसिपेशन" (Affirmative Participation)—क्या अब हमारी आवाज़ आई है? वोट हमारा शस्त्र है, वोट ही हमारा विधान है, समान शासन की ओर, यह हमारा लोकतान्त्रिक अभियान है! (अंतरा 1 - Verse 1: The "Majority" Trap) "हिन्दू बहुमत" का एक मुखौटा यह पहनाते हैं, जाति आधारित शोषण को इस पर्दे के पीछे छुपाते हैं। बाहरी खतरों का डर दिखाकर हमें बहलाते हैं, और हमारे असली मुद्दों को "राष्ट्र-विरोधी" बताते हैं! (अंतरा 2 - Verse 2: Structural Monopoly) ज़मीन उनके हाथ में, सत्ता के ऊँचे पद उनके हाथ में, अदालत, मीडिया और कोचिंग—सब उनके साथ में! "सबका विकास" का नारा है, पर लाभ सिर्फ उनका होता है, हमारा जीवन आज भी उनके संरक्षण (Patronage) पर रोता है!
