However I disagree with Ghosh in other points like -- Can dalit become this or that -- ;this is irrelevent in todays changing India's scenario. Our society is based on inequality. The root is our Vedas that preech that religiously one caste or group is better than others. Today we preech equality because of acts of our govt and great leaders like Mr. Gandhi. This is outward curing. But, will curing from outside really cure it ? I think we need to cure it from inside, that is by rigorous attack on original beliefs of inequality. This is why we need to re-write or re-establish our values. Hi Friends,

Re-writing of anything isn't going to do anything significant. be it bible of purusasuktha. if they still want to re-write the veda, lets also re-write the indian constitution which is argumentatively biased.

issues… that makes the division… and that make me partial… where i can;t stand as a witness… i am the part of that… then….

i may have to stand with the majority of the society… the underpriviliged alianated… never or ever be the part of the giant saga of great sidhus vally or else where in the world.

if anyone can accept the Ayodhya 1996 demolition as a simbolic rivilalism of active hinduism…

the rewriting or scrapping down of the purushasukata is also a simbolic one … the great emergence of the down trodden marginalized mass.

the godhra aftermath… again, which equated as 3rd law of Newton…
that universal law may become UNIVERSAL

The question here is not whether you are with one side or not. Issues dont create division, its by taking an inflexible approach to resolving them, which causes the division. Being partial, will cloud the solution proposed. With regards to the way the dalits are treated in various parts of india, yes, indeed we need to do something about it. Its really bad the way they are treated in different parts of India. I agree that we should not stand by and watch any person being discriminated. But they wont be helped a bit by rewriting or burning books. The question of the Great Sindus valley or the saraswati valley does not arise at all in this issue. Those are our heritage, highpoint in civilisations and that should make us proud, irrespective of caste or creed. If India sends a mission to Moon, each and every Indian has a right to be proud of it, not just the scientific community who did it. I agree that the Ayodhya, godhra and the aftermath raises several questions which shake our basic beliefs about our culture, secularism etc. But we need to approach these issues cautiously, and not just by jumping into conclusions. I think that we should take a Ayurvedic approach. Find the cause that stirs these and treat that root cause. Unfortunately, we dont seem to have people in right places who can do just that. Hmm,
