"SPIRIT OF ISLAM" & SPIRIT OF BUDHISM IS THE SAME
Why Dalit-Muslim unity move failed? Causes & cures
Dr. R.P. HARSH, HARSH CLINIC, BARNALA ROAD, SIRSA - 125 055

We find a reference to a battle between Devas (infidels/Brahminical forces) and Asuras (beef-eaters) in Brahminical literature. In this battle the Devas were defeated by the Asuras. After this battle, the Devas changed their political tactics. Instead of directly confronting the Asuras, they decided to deceive and confuse the Asuras and then use Asuras to defeat their enemies.

Vibhishan and Sugreev were used to defeat Ravan and Bali. Prahlad was used to defeat Hirankashyap.
Today, Bangaru Laxman, Sangh Priya Gautam and Sushil Kumar Shinde, all Dalit leaders, were used to defeat Dalit cause in Durban, South Africa. Dalit force is used to defeat Muslims in Kashmir. The Sikhs were used to fight Sikh in the 1984 "Blue Star Operation". Bahujans are used to fight and kill Dalits in the name of Naxalites.

BABRI MASJID DEMOLITION
Musharaff of Pakistan and the Northern Alliance were used to defeat Taliban and al-Qaida in Afghanistan in the name of "terrorism".

This is the beauty of Devas' changed political tactics that in all clashes whether in the name of terrorism, naxalism, it is always the Asuras who should die. Devas seldom die. All Devas possess deadly weapons like arrow, trishul, gada, chakra, vajra but none of them is called a terrorist.
Demolition of Babri Masjid on Dec.6 (Parinirvan Divas of Dr. Ambedkar), atomic blast on the Budha Purnima and conspiracy to submerge the Chaitya Bhumi of Dr. Ambedkar are some of the glaring examples to prove that the Devas not only want to exterminate Muslims but Budhism is also their target.
Social revolution kills Brahminism. When Muslims over-react on the action of Hindu nazis it helps to polarise idiotic Dalits in the name of Hinduism against Muslims.

The Indian politics is totally different from the politics of other countries because there is no Brahminical Social Order of hate and graded inequality in those countries.

CASTE ALONE KILLS CASTEISM
The Indian politics is governed by the caste system because in India every man is born into a caste, grown up in a caste, married in a caste and dies in a caste. Therefore, the entire personality of a Hindu is governed by the caste. Brahma, Brahmin and Hindu are the different faces of the same caste.
A religion cannot defeat the caste. Caste alone kills casteism.
Why the Hindus hate Muslims? There are three reasons:

1. Over 95% of the Muslims are ex-Budhists.
2. They retained the spirit of Budhism as a Muslim.
3. They did not leave the habit of beef-eating.

To justify that the "Spirit of Islam" is not different from the "Spirit of Budhism", we have to examine the revolutionary contents of both the cultures. They are:

1. Fundamentals of Budhism and Islam. (2) Foundation of Budhism and Islam. (3) Violence in Budhism and Jehad in Islam. (4) Morality in Budhism and Islam. (5) Brahminism and Shaitan. (6) Budhist monasteries and madrasas. (7) Ideology in Budhism and Islam. (8) Muslims are pro-Budhist and hence anti-Hindu. (9) The Middle Path.
I will examine very point in detail.

The fundamentals of Budhism are:
(a) Anitya (transitory/impermanance). (b) Anishwar (there is no god). (c) Anatma (there is no soul).
The fundamentals of Islam as per the Quran are:
There is no god but Allah, Muhammad is His last messenger.
It may appear that the fundamentals of Budhism and Islam are different but in reality they are the names of same spirit. Muslims must think deep.

CORNER STONE OF BRAHMINISM
God and soul are the corner stones of Brahminism to establish their racial superiority and to perpetuate the Brahminical Social Order (BSO) of hate and graded inequality through the process of incarnation.

Budha by rejecting the concept of soul completely demolished the BSO. Budha said: "This is my last birth, I shall not be reborn again". Thus Budha killed the humbug of incarnation.

By saying that "Muhammad is His last messenger", Islam also closed the doors so that the Satan may not succeed in his mission to reproduce another avtar of Prophet Mohammad to deceive the innocent people. Thus on this point also the "Spirit of Islam" does not differ from the "Spirit of Budhism".

The vital point, Anitya (transitory/ impermanence) of Budhism and Allah of Islam needs elaboration. I want to make it very clear that there is no substitute for Allah. It cannot be equated with god (Brahma) which is the Brahminical element of supernaturalism.

Budha believed in nature and natural laws. He also knew that "change" is the law of nature. So he used the word Anitya (everything is transitory). Nothing is permanent. Anitya in Budhism represents the nature.

POSITION OF ALLAH UNDER ISLAM
What is the position of Allah under Islam which is an Arabic word meaning submission, surrender and obedience. Islam stands for complete submission and obedience to Allah.

The universe we live in is an orderly one. There is a law and order among all units that comprise this universe. Everything is assigned a place in a grand scheme of things working in a magnificent and perfect way. The sun, the moon, the stars and in fact all heavenly bodies are knit together in a splendid system. In short, ours is a law-governed universe and everything in it follows the course that has been ordained.

This is the powerful, all-pervasive law of Allah, the creator and ruler of the universe. As the entire creation obeys the law of Allah, the whole universe, therefore, follows the religion of Islam. The sun, the moon, the earth and all other heavenly bodies are thus Muslim.

This clearly shows that Allah in Islam also represents the nature. By rejecting god, Islam also rejects supernaturalism. Man is a byproduct of nature. His entire personality from birth to death is governed by the nature and it laws. He is fully dependent on nature for everything for his survival. Therefore complete surrender to nature (Allah) becomes a reality.

MUSLIM LEADERSHIP FAILURE
Budha laid the foundation of his Dhamma on wisdom and morality. Does Islam oppose the concept of wisdom and morality? The answer is no. Prophet Muhammad also laid great stress on education.

Muslim intellectuals must examine why 95% Muslims are educationally backward despite the fact that "the first thing which Allah created was intellect".

It is because the Muslim leadership in India has not understood the "Spirit of Islam". It suppressed this "Spirit of Islam" and made it a religion of rituals and ceremonies.

BUDHISM REJECTS NON-VIOLENCE
Budha did not preach ahimsa (non-violence). It is the conspiracy of Brahmins to kill the "Spirit of Budhism" and make Budhist a coward. In dialogue with the Senapati, the commander-in-chief of Vaishali, he made his position very clear. Senapati asked the Budha:

" The Bhagvan preaches Ahimsa. Does the Bhagvan preach an offender to be given freedom from punishment? Does the Bhagvan preach that we should not go to war to save our wives, our children and our wealth? Should we suffer at the hands of criminals in the name of ahimsa?"

" Does the Tathagata prohibit all war even when it is in the interest of Truth and Justice?"

Buddha replied. You have wrongly understood what I have been preaching. An offender must be punished and an innocent man must be freed. It is not the fault of the Magistrate if he punishes an offender. The cause of punishment is the fault of the offender. The Magistrate who inflicts the punishment is only carrying out the law. He does not become stained with Ahimsa. A man who fights for justice and safety cannot be accused of Ahimsa. If all the means of maintaining peace have failed then the responsibility for himsa falls on him who starts the war. One must never surrender to evil powers. War there may be, but it must not be for selfish end...".

(W&S, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, Vol.3 p.450-451).
JEHAD UNDER ISLAM
Jehad under Islam also has the same spirit as in Budhism:

Many non-Muslims have misunderstood the word Jehad. Jehad is not simply taking the sword and waging a war against the opponent. But Jehad has a righteous meaning and is a war against all kinds of oppression". (Curse of Allah, Prof. Rahmatullah, DSA-1997).

Thus violence in Budhism and Jehad in Islam has the same spirit.

Morality is the second main pillar of Budhism. Budha preached morality by way of Panch Sheel (five precepts). According to Babasaheb these five precepts are:

(1) To be compassionate to all living beings. (2) I shall not steal, (3) I shall not tell lie, (4) I shall not commit any sexual misconduct, (5) I shall not consume liquor/intoxicant.

Islam is a religion of peace. It strictly follows these moral conduct.
Morality under Islam is so profound that hardly any one dares to cross the boundary.

In Islam, a man cannot have sex out of marriage, compel him to have sex only after the marriage and that too with the woman he love, says Editor V.T. Rajshekar. (India's Muslim Problem, DSA-1997).

SATAN OF ISLAM REFERS TO BRAHMINISM
Brahminism rests on creating confusion. It deceives people saying that Brahma created the BSO of hate and graded inequality. It says that all people are not born equal, thus creating enmity and a feeling of superiority and inferiority of certain castes.

Dalits have become the worst victims of this hate and enmity. Budha launched his revolution of prajna, karuna and samata against Brahminism and Islam launched its revolution against the Satan.
Is Satan different from Brahminism? The answer is no. They are the two faces of the same coin.
According to the Quran the qualities of Satan are:

(i) He excites enmity (5:9); (ii) he deceives (8:48), (iii) He believes in evil spirit (3:36).
Under Budhism, Budha viharas are centres of education. They are not places of idolatry. In the same way madrasas under Islam are the centres of learning.

Budhism condemns idolatry. There is no place for idol worship under Islam. In fact, Islam is more rigid on this aspect. It believes in breaking the idols. Thus on this point also "Spirit of Islam" does not differ from the "Spirit of Budhism".

One of the charges of Hindu nazis against the Muslims is that they are anti-Hindu. But the same nazis suppress the fact that Hindus are also anti-Budhist.

Budhism and Islam both preach prajna (wisdom), karuna (love), samata (equality). Over 95% Muslims are Dalit converts. They were all Budhists and sowrn enemies of Hindu.

Budha preached "Middle Path" which means:
Do good, commit no sin, be no party to evils.
Is Islam against this spirit of "Middle Path"? The answer is no. Budhism and Islam do not favour feudalism, imperialism, nudity and vulgarity. To maintain the "Middle Path", Quran has made certain provisions:

Islam does not approve of pomp and show, materialism, splendour and vanity. (Curse of Allah, DSA-1997, Naushad Ansari, p.19).

Zakat is another provision which is a must for all Muslims.
I have sufficiently argued to prove that the "Spirit of Islam" does not differ with the "Spirit of Budhism". But the affinity between the "Spirit of Islam" and "Spirit of Budhism" needs further research and investigation.

In light of these facts, it is up to the Muslim intellectuals to decide if Prophet Muhammad's Islamic revolution is a continuity of Budhist revolution.

BEEF-EATING UNITES DALITS & MUSLIMS
Brahmins used to eat beef in the Vedic period. According to Manu cow's meat was obligatory on certain occasions.

Manu declares that the men who having in due form performed (mathuparka or other) ceremony failed to eat flesh will doomed to be born an animal for 20 generations. A guest is called Goghna cow- killer because cow used to be killed on arrival of a distinguished guest. (The Essence of Budhism, P. Laxmi Narasu, p.41).

Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, a great humanist who revived Budhism, while investigating the origin of untouchability says it is only the "Broken Man" who became Untouchable. The Broken Men were Budhists who retained the habit of beef-eating.

When the Brahmins came to power after killing Budhism they made cow as the sacred animal.
That is how the beef-eaters were declared Untouchables and made unfit for association. Islam did not make beef-eating a sin. This was probably the other reason, besides the "Spirit of Islam", which attracted the Budhists to embrace Islam.

Budhists, who were also beef-eaters, hated idol worship and refused to accept the supremacy of Brahmins. That is why they embraced Islam as the "Spirit of Islam" was fully consistent with the "Spirit of Budhism".

This is yet another reason why Budhists and Muslims are the target of Hindu nazi counter-revolution.

WHY MUSLIM RULE DECLINED
The Muslim rule declined from India because the Muslim rulers joined hands with Brahminical, feudal and imperialist forces, particularly during Mughal period. They tolerated all Brahminical elements and their anti-human crimes which Islam prohibited. The revolutionary "Spirit of Islam" was killed. The Quran was misinterpreted. Cow again became a sacred animal. This resulted in the decline of Muslim rule.

Our Editor has repeatedly said:
Religion does not protect the masses. It is the masses that protect the religion.
Millions of innocent Muslims were killed in Afghanistan by the Americans in the name of terrorism. The religion of Islam did not come to protect them. Muslims became the stooge of White Western racists and joined hands with them in killing the Muslims.

Both Budha and Prophet Muhammad did not appoint any successor. But the religious leadership killed the "Spirit of Islam" and reduced it into a religion of rituals, ceremonies and superstitions.

Despite its 80-year-long rule over India, Muslim rulers failed to establish the "Spirit of Islam" because in the name of Muslim politics the "Spirit of Islam" was twisted.

MOOLNIVASIS CALLED HINDU & HENCE ENEMY
Islam was a great socio-cultural revolution. But in India, the Muslim religious leadership because of its total ignorance of the social setup started calling all non-Muslims as Hindu and their enemies. They did not know that a majority of non-Muslims like the SC/ST/BCs (65%) were not Hindu. They were the deadliest enemies of Hindu.

The Moolnivasis of India are the born enemies of Hinduism but the Muslims out of their ignorance included them also in the list of their enemies.

Despite the fact that Prophet Muhammad did not appoint a successor, Muslim religious leaders (moulanas and maulvis) twisted Islam and manipulated the "Spirit of Islam" for their selfish end and reduced Islam into a religion of rituals and ceremonies.

With due apologies to my honest Muslim brothers and sisters, I would like to declare:
The concept of Allah in Islam and Budha in Budhism has the same spirit ÑÊmeaning surrender to wisdom.

It is the duty of every Muslim intellectual to re-examine the concept of Allah in the light of these observations in the interest of promoting Dalit-Muslim unity.

I am not a Muslim. But I have examined the spirit of both the cultures with the best of my knowledge and ability. It is now up to Dalit and Muslim intellectuals to judge me.

Brahminical organisations tried their level best to instigate Indian Budhists against the Muslims in the name of demolition of Bamiyan Budha in Afghanistan. But it is the "Spirit of Budhism", namely wisdom, that came in the way and Brahminism failed in its mission to bring about clashes between Budhists and Muslims.

Muslim scholars must think: If Allah means supernaturalism, then what is the difference Islam and Brahminism? When Islam could not exterminate Brahminism during its 800-year-rule then how it can fight Brahminism when Brahmins are in power now and Muslims are reduced to slavery?

Million man Black march in Washington on Oct.15
BOB BROWN, 1307 - WEST LOMBARD ST., BALTIMORE, MD - 21223, USA

The 10th anniversary of the "Million Man March", convened by Minister Louis Farrakhan, will be held in Washington DC on Oct.15, 2005. A million African men, women and children will participate. We are also trying to organize caravans of buses and cars to come to DC and a Day of Absence on Oct. 14.



World's worst form of racism

So happy to hear about the "Million Man March" under the leadership of America's famous Black leader Farrakhan. In 1986, we led a Black delegation from India to the African conference in Libya organised by Gadafi. There we met Brother Farrakhan and he embraced us after the entire audience gave us a standing ovation when we finished our speech. On the way back, our passport was seized and since then we are not allowed to go out of India for making that speech criticising India's apartheid system. Though India has a much larger Black population, a third of its 1,000 million total strength, and suffers the world's worst form of racism, we have not been able to organise such a March till now. We have many things to learn from you. Please request Brother Farrakhan to tour India as our guest and we will take him round the country so that he can see for himself the world's cruelest form of Apartheid ÑEDITOR.

Marathas declare war on Brahminism
PURUSHOTTAM KHEDEKAR, FOUNDER, MARATHA SEWA SANGH

Freedom is a pre-condition for the development of man. If a man is provided with all the luxuries of life but denied the freedom of thought and action, his life becomes meaningless. In this context the example of Ireland is worth noting. In 1914, the Protestant leader, Edward Karson, was asked by his fellow countryman, Catholic leader Redmond:

Why don't you give your assent to the unification of Ireland? We can give you whatever concessions you ask for.

Karson retorted:
To hell with your concessions. We simply don't want your rule over Ireland.
Similarly some people tell us:
There is no need to leave Hinduism. One can live in Hinduism after undertaking reforms that are needed.

RELIGION OF SLAVERY
But the question here is fundamental: Why should one live in a religion which is not of his or his forefather's making? Why should one live in the religion which has for centuries been enslaving them, denying even humane living, and denying the most primary rights? Why should we follow the culture of our enemies? Our forefathers have done so under duress and ignorance but we are going to kick this religion out and live with self-respect.

We are going to use our brains hereafter. We are not going to be tools in our enemies hands. We are not going to bow before the aliens. In short, Shiv Dharma rejects the alien-led Hinduism and adopts the true religion of our forefathers. That Shiv Dharma is a movement of liberation of the Bahujan ÑÊreligiously, financially and intellectually Ñ has to be understood coolly by the Bahujans.

Freedom, equality, brotherhood and justice are the main principles of Shiv Dharma. In this, man is the centre and whatever comes in its way ÑÊBrahminism Ñ has to be eliminated completely. We want a society based on scientific thought, a society which is self-reliant and free in all the matters of life. Shiva Dharma will eliminate all the rituals, customs, superstitions, gods, fatalism and all those instruments of exploitation of the Bahujans by the priestly class. Shiv Dharma will not be dogmatic but open to new thoughts and changes that the future would warrant. Shiv Dharma is for democracy and against dictatorship. Its goal would be equal opportunities to all and equal justices to all. It believes in self-emancipation i.e. non-reliance on any supernatural or external power for the progress and well being of the man.

JIJABAI PREPARED SHIVAJI
The motive power behind the Shiv Dharma will be our oldest culture i.e. the Sindhu culture. That culture was matriarchal. Just as the woman of that age invented the practice of agriculture, Jijabai prepared her son Shivaji for the overthrowing of the Brahminical order and releasing the Bahujan from their tyranny. It was a result of the grooming by his mother that Shivaji could create a welfare raj for the masses, free from the Brahmin-domination. In her husband's absence, she managed the Pune jahagir like a well-bred regent. She was an idol of sacrifice, martial courage, statesmanship, ambition, self-respect and ethical behaviour. That is why Shiv Dharma accepts her as a source of inspiration and not as an idol to be worshipped and forgotten. In Shiv Dharma, contrary to Hinduism, woman will not only be given her rightful place in all the departments of the life but also paid reverence, being the mother of the mankind.

BAHUJAN IDENTITY
Under the Shiv Dharma, identity of the Bahujan will be as a Shiv Dharmee alone. No other distinction like caste or varna will be allowed or practiced. In Shiv Dharma, the votaries will be an example of brotherhood and cooperation. The Shiv Dharmee will have his own head on his shoulders and not that of the Brahmin as it happens today in Hinduism. He will be a builder of a new society and a prosperous as well as a strong nation.

ROLE OF DR. AMBEDKAR
Shiv Dharma rejects all the rituals and the celebrations of Hinduism. In its place, Shiv Dharma will celebrate the birth days and mourn the deaths of those great men of the Bahujan who practised rational and scientific mode of living. In that category are included Shankasur, Hiranyakshapu, Narkasur, King Bali, Charvak, Gautam Budha, Mahavir, Samrat Ashok, Saint Kabir, Saint Ravidas, Saint Goroba and Saints Namdeo, Basweswar, Sena Maharaj, Narhari, Tukaram, Rashtra Mata Jijau, Shivray, Sambhaji, Jyoti Rao Phule, Savitribai Fule, Fatimabi, Shahu Maharaj, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, Gadge Baba, Tukadoji, Anna Bhau Sathe, Dr. Punjabrao Deshmuk and many others from other states. All these great men worked for the upliftment of the Bahujan. The main test of these celebrations/observances will be to avoid all such events that exploit the feelings of the gullible masses and insult our ancestors at our own hands.

GANDHISM REJECTED
Without a system of thoughts i.e. philosophy, no society can make a progress, however, primitive that philosophy may be. But that philosophy has to be one for joining the society and has to be elastic so as to accommodate the changing needs. In India, we have Brahminism, gandhism, marxism and bahujanvad.

The first three systems are designed to strengthen the Brahminical order. However, the Bahujanvad has always been of scientific temper and an instrument of uniting the masses. Bahujanvad comprises the teachings of Charvak, Budha, Mahavir, Kabir, Tukaram, Jotiba Fule, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, Periyar E.V. Ramaswami and a host of others. This stream of thoughts rejects Brahminism or exploitation and welcomes scientific social order. It rejects god, fatalism, ritualism, temples, superstitions, ved, smriti and puranas.

MARATHAS WILL NO LONGER PROTECT HINDUISM
There is a natural anxiety about Shiv Dharma in the minds of other religionists. They welcome the Bahujans kicking the buttocks of Brahminism but at the same time wonder why he is not joining their religion. In this matter what is important is to get out of the Brahmin's slavery and the Bahujan is doing exactly the same by rediscovering his millennia-old Sindhu Dharma i.e. Shiv Dharma. Shiv Dharma will have cordial relations with other religions. It will have amicable relations even with those of our brethren who are still in the Hindu religion. Shiv Dharma will not do any harm to the other religions.

The Maratha Bahujan who was acting as an armour of Hinduism will no longer do it henceforth. The people, our brothers, of the other religions have to recognize this fact.

Democracy is based upon freedom, fraternity, equality and justice. It is a political system i.e. a system of power sharing. On the contrary, Brahminism is a social order of inequality of castes and varnas.

Shiv Dharma proposes to change this social structure and make it compatible with the ethos of democracy. Like democracy, Shiv Dharma also swears by freedom, fraternity, equality and justice. Shiv Dharma aims at a templeless, a casteless and a priestless society of egalitarian members. It will strengthen Indian democracy. It fully abides by the Indian Constitution.

In other words, though named as religion Shiv Dharma is a democratic social order. Until such time as the commonest of the common man transcends the idea of god, the word religion has to be used. Brahminism has played havoc with the mind of the Bahujan Samaj over the centuries.

Though Shiv Dharma is against ritualism, a few occasions of life like the birth and the death will have to be exempted from this strict canon. But all the things in this connection will be done by the Shiv Dharmee himself or by another Shiv Dharmee. No discrimination will be practiced by a Shiv Dharmee on the basis of caste, gender, province, language or religion. The Shiv Dharmee will be bound by oath to protect, practice and revere the constitution of the Indian republic.

BRAHMIN NOT ADMITTED
The Shiv Dharmee will declare on oath that he has renounced Hinduism, and that Hinduism is not the religion of his forefathers. He will have to declare that he would not practice magic-remedies, offer anything before any idol or undertake any homa or yagna.

Having got rid of the Brahmins, the Bahujan Samaj will be the lord of their land and lives. Shiv Dharma will not be forced upon anybody. Yet excepting the Brahmins, everybody is welcome into the fold of the Shiv Dharma. The management and regulation of the Shiv Dharma will vest in the hands of the parliament of the Shiv Dharmees.

This is the second and the concluding part of the speech of the founder of the Maratha Sewa Sangh at the historic Sindhkheda conversion ceremony on Jan.12,2005 when lakhs of Marathas quit Hinduism and embraced the new religion of Shiv Dharma. In this speech he declared a war on Brahminism and said the people of India became enslaved only because they were duped by Brahmins to follow it though Hinduism was not their religion.

WORRIED OF BAHUJAN THREAT

Why vaidiks go on changing stand on Aryan invasion ?
Dr. VINOD WANJARI, 63 - JYOTIBA PHULE COLONY, NAGPUR - 440 027

This refers to Brother G.R. Chavan's article (DV Nov.1, 2004 p.24) seeking clarification regarding Dr. Ambedkar's stand on the Aryan invasion theory.

In fact, after going through the forceful arguments advanced by Dr. Ambedkar against the theory of Aryan invasion in the Who Were Shudras? one tempts to believe that Aryans are the original inhabitants of India and not the invaders. However, we must remember that nothing is final or sanatan (never changing) like the Hindu dharma.

Any theory ÑÊsocial, political or even historical Ñ is based on the available evidences. It is however, not an end in itself because research is going on.

BANARAS SPEECH
Babasaheb in a paper read before the anthropology seminar on May 9, 1916 said:
According to well known ethnologists, the population of India is a mixture of Aryans, Dravidians, Mongolians and Scythians. All these stocks of people came into India from various directions and with various cultures centuries ago, when they were in a tribal state. All they in turn elbowed their entry into the country by fighting with their predecessors and after a stomach-full of it settled down as peaceful neighbours" (W&S vol.1, p.6).

Subsequently he changed his stand in the research thesis published in 1946 saying:
The Aryans came from outside India and invaded the natives has no evidence to support it. There is a large body of evidence that India is the home of Aryans. (W&S Vol.3, p.420-421).
However, at the fag end of his life he reverted back, confirming Aryans as the invaders and not the natives of India as said earlier. In his speech on Nov.25, 1956 in the Banaras Hindu University, just 11 days before his death (the text was published in the Prabuddha BharatÑ Aug.24, 1957), he said:
Many of the people who are commonly considered as Hindus now originally belonged to Naga race. These Nagas were the original inhabitants of India who were more civilised than Aryans. Aryan culture cannot be considered superior just because they conquered the Nagas. The reason of Aryans victory over Nagas is their conveyance. Aryans fought riding on the horse whereas the Nagas on their feet.
Jyotiba Phule also maintained that the Aryans are alien Brahmins who created their dominance and oppression of the lower castes.

RIG VEDA SAYS ARYANS ARE FOREIGNERS
The Rig Veda, the original holy book of the Brahmins, also contains many references that support the Aryan invasion theory. According to it the leader of the Aryan invasion was one Indra, and his role in "slaying the Dasyus" is prominent.

Thou, Indra, art the destroyer of all the cities, the slayer of the Dasyus, the prosperer of man, the lord of the sky ÑÊRg V. VIII 87.6.

The Rig Veda also goes on to use the word Black in a number of instances to describe the Dasyu: Rg.V. I 130.8 tell of how the Black skin was conquered: At the same time it praises the Indra who "destroyed the Dasyans and protected the Aryan colour" ÑÊRg. V. III 34.9.
Earlier, Dr. Ambedkar had said:

Brahmins love two-nation theory. They claim to be the representative of the Aryan race and regard rest of the Hindus as descendents of the non-Aryans.

But the Brahmins are not simpletons like us. They have no permanent theory, just as they have no permanent friends or enemies. They only have permanent interests. Once we hold a particular thought, we stick on to it to the extent of leaving no room for accepting change and become dogmatic.

BRAHMINS FEEL THREATENED
Brahmins change their strategies and tactics with the changing circumstances. Earlier the theory of Aryan invasion suited them hence they embraced it. However, with the growing consciousness of Bahujans against the Brahmins as their oppressors, they (Brahmins) took a complete U turn claiming to be the original inhabitants of India.

They feared that Aryan invasion theory if allowed to disseminate among the native Bahujans would be a threat to their No.1 position in the society. This made them suddenly fall in love with Dr. Ambedkar as his previous theory though already disowned by him suited the Brahmins greatly. It was intended to pacify the growing discontent among Bahujans against the Brahmins as the foreigners or alien people asserting their arrogance on the native Bahujans.

SINDHUS HATE HINDUS
Hence they started arranging the meetings etc. inviting the Ambedkarite scholars to tell Dalit-Bahujans that Brahmins are not the invaders but the natives of India. However, deep down they are conscious of their Aryan origin and take great pride in the Aryan culture.

The following incident would make us realise the significance Brahmins attach to the theory of Aryan invasion. Mr. Wamandada Kardak, a noted Ambedkarite poet for whom Dr. Ambedkar had great respect felt anguished at the demolition of Babri mosque, and composed the following song:

Advani, Vajpai, Singhal, Togadia you are Farsi, Ruswasi,
We Ambedkar, Phule, Shahu, Periyar, Mulnivasi
We are Sindhu Sindhu
You are Hindu Hindu.

This song infuriated the Brahmins for they knew the potential of Kardak igniting the masses against the Brahmins. Hence to shut his mouth they threatened to kill him and advised to stop singing this song. It did not deter Kardak. He said:
Kill me, but my Samaj would settle the score.

The Brahmins measures the success of their movement in terms of their ability to polarise Bahujans in the name of Hindu. In this endeavour, their real concern is to keep the issue of Brahmin's origin as a well guarded secret. They have to hide their identity and continue to wear the mask of Hindu for fooling the Bahujan. They feel threatened if somebody attempts to expose them on their foreign origin.

FABRICATION OF HISTORY
To prove Aryans as the builders of the Indus Valley, Brahmin historians (N.S. Rajaram and Natwar Jha) started fabricating the original Indus seal with the humped bull found at Harappan sites, claiming it to be of horse. However, it was challenged by others and "1,000 dollars was offered to anyone who could find one Harappan researcher who endorsed Rajaram's horse seal". (http:www.dalitstan.org).

They want to establish that since the horse was first domesticated by Aryans and is found on the Indus seal hence the Aryan were the builders of Indus civilisation. They are so desperate to prove it avoiding any direct clash with native Bahujans in the name of civilisation.

Noted historian Romila Thapar says: "For those concerned with a Hindutva ideology, the invasion had to be denied. The definition of a Hindu as given by Savarkar was that India had to be his pitrubhumi (ancestral) and his punyabhumi (the land of his religion). A Hindu therefore could not be descended from alien invaders. Since Hindus sought lineal descent from the Aryans and a cultural heritage, the Aryans had to be indigenous". (Hindutva & History, Frontline vol.17, issue 20, Oct.13, 2000).

The issue here, however, is neither to discuss the utility of the Mulnivasi theory in uniting the Dalit-Bahujans nor offer suggestion on whether this theory should be trumpeted by them but to establish the Aryan invasion theory in the light of Dr. Ambedkar's thesis.

ARYANS NOT NATIVES
It is not necessary that Brahmins would continue to feel threatened by the Aryan invasion theory for ever. They have many weapons in their armoury to befool the masses. They are experts in changing the strategies to suit the time and situation that might make the Aryan invasion theory insignificant. However, the historical, anthropological and archaeological evidences point out that Aryans are not the natives of India and Dr. Ambedkar also supported it.
