REVELATIONS.

REVELATIONS.

Rajnath Singh the BJP president select said earlier that he is taking charge at a time when the party is facing turmoil and a difficult time ahead. He has no idea of the way ahead. So took a decision to take a holy dip at the Kumbhamela at Sangam. The holy Sangam might reveal some way. He went deep into the river to have a complete did but the water level was low. He prostrated and immersed his body and head deep. His head came out of water and he looked up the sky for any message. The message did come. It revealed to him that the sudden decision came through a dictate from high above. The then president Nitin Gadkari hung on to the post upto the last minute. There were some aspirants like Mahesh Jathmalani, Yashwant Sinha trying to get there. In fact name of Rajnath was not put forward by anyone in the party. Suddenly everything went blank. The Hindutva Supremo, RSS chief pushed the name and lo everyone in the party welcomed the dictate with thumping applauds. Rajnath sat in the throne.  This is revelation one. He took a second dip and raised head from water. He realised that Narendra Modi Gujarat CM, is on the march towards the capital with his new mantra of development. Rajnath remembered the days when BJP headed the government between 1998 and 2004. The next election was fought on shining India. But the BJP led front failed to get the numbers. The slogan of development did not ring any bell to Rajnath. So he went  to still deeper place to have the third dip. It took more time to get his head out of water. He looked up to heaven for any message but heard bells ringing on the river bank. There was big noise from hundreds in Unisom “Mandir wohi banayenge, abhi banayenge.” There were coming from the VHP congregation camp. He sensed the message and the meaning. To redeem his new position, he plucked the message to his heart and came up from the waters dried himself. He announced that mandir will be built. Mandir was the message towards power in 1998-99 elections. Subsequently the message was forgotten with result of congress coming to power in 2004 and 2009 elections causing BJP to sit on the other side. It could be corrected now. The grandest, greatest and tallest mandir for Ram at Ayodhya is the manna for all ills in the nation. The message was reiterated by the RSS Supremo saying; yes, Rajnath, pickup the weapon and fight to bring back the pride of hindutva. Mandir is the pride of Hindus. When pride is restored Bharat will be on top and all will be in their right places. It will be resurrection of the ancient legendary Ramrajya. Though the Ramrajya was confined to the borders of Ayodhya ruled by Ram; other kingdoms like Videha, Kosala, Kekaya and all were ruled by others.

We have no idea as to how all other kingdoms fared compared to one ruled by Rama. Similar is the condition of the kingdom ruled by Bharata for 14 years, when he was keeping the sandals of Rama in the throne. However we know something about direct rule of Rama from the last part of Ramayana.

In one chapter it gives as idea of how Rama and Sita used to spend the days in the palace. They enjoy in the flowery gardens along with all attendants maids etc. It says “Sitamaday hastena, Madhu maireyakam Suchi; Payayamasa Kakutsa: Sachimive Purandara:” meaning that Guiding with hands Rama made Sita to drink the sweet and pure liquor wine; just like Indra to his spouse Indrani. There were groups of singers, drummers and dancers, all extremely beautiful damsels intoxicated with drinks. It might be implied that the kingdom was ruled mainly by ministers like Sumantra with advice from sage Vasista. No role is preferred to Bharat. This is one side of the story.

There was an incident of Brahmin making complaints at the assembly of Rama that his infant son lost life because some low caste Sûdra was performing Vedic rituals that are prohibited to his caste. Rama ordered his men to find and behead the Sûdra so that the infant of Brahmin will get its life back. It so happened.

The third incident. Just like in the present day India/Bharat had enough Kejriwals in Ramrajya also. First seek a celebrity and find evidence to allege any misdemeanor. 2+2 = 2x2 = 4. The allegation was not entirely baseless. Sita accompanied Rama in forest and stayed with him for about 13 years before she was abducted by Ravana and kept captive in Lanka for about a year. She did not conceive for all these years. On coming back to palace at Ayodhya she was found pregnant. The spies reported to Rama that one of those Kejriwals, have refused to cohabit with his married wife saying she is not faithful and he himself is not Rama to take back a tainted wife. These allegations upset Rama and he orders his brother Laxmana to take Sita and leave near some seer’s ashrams in the forest. Sita in fact wanted to visit the ashrams in forest and that was the excuse to the banishment of the pregnant Sita in the forest. Laxman conveyed the order of king Rama and went back. These are the three instances of the rule idealized as Ramarajyam. One fact to be highlighted is that of the queen Sita. She never had a family life during the whole period of Ramarajyam. She was humiliated even at her last day. She was asked to undergo a second fire test. But is did not happen since her mother earth took her in her lap and disappeared under.

The new Ramarajyam envisaged by Hindutva groups are made clear in the message to Rajnath Singh as stated earlier. Moreover, Pravin Togadia the international president of VHP has outlined the urgent measures to bring the ideal Hindutva rule. Disenfranchise all none Hindus take away their right to property and employment in the state. We have here a complete plan to bring in Ramarajyam with all the RSS ans its several progenies that include the political ouyfit Bharatiya Janata Party in lead. No one could predict as to what might happen to the MA Naquies, Najma Heptulla, Sadhvi Uma Bharati and others like Sushama Swaraj etc.etc.
