We hear some perverted minds talk ill of Hindu scriptures and Hindu Gods and Goddesses. Recently, a person was asked to leave Malaysia for his hate speech. There are many people who hate Hindus and talk ill of their Gods, scriptures and rituals. These lewd mouths do not hesitate to go to any extent to denigrate Hindu faith and belief system, the scriptures and the Gods and Goddesses. The reason is very simple. Those who hate Hindus and their faith belief system are the barbarians who have invaded India, destroyed Temples and built masjids and churches. However, there are many who have realized that they are the progeny of forcibly converted by the rulers of the time and, these people still practice Hindu festivals and participate in social gatherings with Hindus in India and abroad.
The reason for hatred is due to ignorance on the one hand, and lack of proper explanation of the scriptures. This has led to denigration of Gods and the sages! Indra, Naradamuni, Agastya and Vishva Mitra Rishi, and even Brahma are shown in bad light. Chaturmukha Brahma, the Creator, is said to have a wife in Saraswati, not knowing that the real meaning of a wife is the first manifestation of such as kampana (vibration) and waves of sound (shabda and Vani), and the alphabets of the Creator. In fact it is the breath, the vital airs, the life-force that accompanies the jiva!! Our epics are all full of characters of doubtful nature for these ignorant lots of commentators? None of these knows how the Veda, the Upanishads, the Bhagavad-Gita explain the secret of creation, the true nature of the world we live in, and the mystery of birth and death! The characters that appear in the great epics are on the verge of fiction on the one hand, and mythology on the other. There is also some in ancient Indian history such as Ayodhya Ram and Krishna of Mathura and Brindavan and Dwaraka! No one for sure knows what he talks when Krishna of the Bhagavata, Mahabharata, and the Gita are concerned! Krishna, an avatar of Vishnu, is called a coward, thief, and described as a womanizer? The Blessed Lord Himself makes it very clear as to "Who He is" in the Vibhuti Yoga, Ch.X of the Gita and no body pays heed to this. None can understand what He means when He, the Lord says that "He is the nirakara parabrahman" and has no beginning or end, neither born or die, and always exists? Nobody knows the truth? Thus, no wonder people have a low esteem of our Gods?
Thus, the real problem is one of lack of proper understanding of the Hindu way of life. In fact, it is the duty of the teachers to educate the people as to the true nature of Indian way of life, the scriptures, faith and belief systems, Hindu system (Bharatiya paddhati) of worship should be properly explained. But there are no learned people to educate the ignorant people. The present published texts of scriptures are full of mistakes, wrong explanations and mostly vague and ambiguous! Most of the writers do not know the differences between the characters such as Indra, Ganesha, Shiva or Brahma in mythology, epics, ancient history and fiction. Nobody knows the real authors of most of the scriptures! Under these circumstances, it is no wonder that the outsiders make fun of Hindu scriptures.
