Dear Lejo,
The point you raised in differntiating the Hindustan from the english name of our 'Bharat Desh' : India. You are correlating the Hindustan with the Hindu religion. Hindu is the Persian name for the Indus river and if you care to find the meaning of Hindu in english , it is not as the single religion like as you are bound to only with your faith. Hindus are native of India. Hinduism is the descent of 'Sanatan Dharam' means the 'eternal law' which is never ending,lasting forever. Hinduism is the way of living the life which includes various traditions.
Hinduism doesn't revlove around any founder/prophets.You cann't relate the 'Hinduism' to a single piece entity.It does have so many traditions,rituals under one umberalla of Hinduism.I request you to first read it,learn it before making any statement against it.
We 'Hindustani' should be very proud of our culture,our traditions,our History.Just because you follow some other faith you aren't allowed to disrespect the Country's History,its Culture,its great Historical person as they might be beyond the scope of your Faith.We celebrate festivals like Makar Sakranti,Pongal,Holi,Basant Panchmi,Teej on the onset of changing of the Season.We celebrate Diwali when the Historical person of 'Bharat' Lord Sri Ram retruned to Ayodhya and We celebrate Guru Parv as the Birth Date of 'Guru Nanak Dev'.Budh purnima is celebrated as the mark of Lord Buddha's birth.All these are part of our Country's culture that is existing much before your faith arrived on planet Earth.We Hindus are just following our traditions,rituals and following the Country's traditions is not bounded in the shackles of some faith.
Besides all this,Hinduism is such a vast term that you simply cann't understand this in your life term.For that you need to live it on daily basis.Hinduism teaches you the Morality,it teaches you to have the patience.Hinduism is not criticizing the faith of any person.You are not making any efforts to come out of the a specific religion.You find out the life in a book but we experience this on daily basis without learning it from the book.
Hinduism talks of Karma that means Work,deed or action.Ask a Hindu about Worship.For us 'Work is Worship' i.e. "कर्म ही पूजा है" . We aren't told to go to temple to find the GOD but we are belived that there is GOD in every living being on Earth.
Your Wordings that you simply don't like Hinduism/Hindutva then I am sorry to say that you even don't respect the Country.If you cann't respect the Country's History,Culture,Traditions and for you all things comes out from your holy Book which simply don't have anything for a Country,Traditions,Rituals. We are the part of longest surviving civilisation of the Earth.Instead of being proud of this,you are denying all which were still existed before the emergence of your faith on the Holy Land of Bharat.
When the population in other parts of world living the nomadic life we had the developed and flourishing civilisation here.
You are proud of your Country for What? One can be proud of Singapore,Hong Kong,Australia,US for their great economic development,their great buildings,infrastructure.But beyond this What they will tell you about their country?The answer is Nothing..
When there was no means of Education,Art,Philosphy,Economics etc. We had the World famous University 'Takshila' where persons from all over the world used to come and learn through means of Vedic Education which inturns, part of Hinduism. We have given so much to World which you don't care to learn as your faith will discard the learning beyond the Holy Book of yours.I am proud of my Country for its achievements.I am proud that I have taken birth on this Holy place "Hindustan"
Regarding the Hindu GODS that made you to use the offensive words by comparing it with other faiths of the World.The term 'religion' for us is 'Dharam' .We have classified the 'Dharam' vs. 'Adharam'.The Greatest Indian Epics - Ramayana and Mahabharta hadn't mentioned the Hindu Word or Sanatan Dharam.The war that is described in these Epics was between 'Dharam' and 'Adharam'.Dharam means the righteous deeds in the civilised society and Adharam means when someone trying to spoil the Dharam.
Do you know the Mahabharta is the longest epic poem ever in the World History .It is called "महाकाव्य' . Denying the facts of Mahabharat is denying India.
The 'Shivaji Maharaj' was the great saviour of our Motherland.His army used to slogan out 'Har Har Mahadev' when they fight out with Muslim Army of AurangZeib. This wasn't related to the Religion(your understanding of religion is very limited/none) but it was the Dharam of Shivaji Maharaj that he fought for the Motherland.
Your faith in some other preaching limits your learning .You think bad of the Hindus GOD while praying in your Chruch.You talk about the Hindu GOD with three heads and one with Elephant Trunk.While you talk of this nonsense, you are no more than a madrassa going kid in Taliban ruled Area.All This reflects your acute thinkings,tolerance about the Country's traditions,culture.And please don't be boast of your faith while comparing it with Hinduism/Hindutva . We do not practise Hinduism as a religion but we live it.Hinduism is just not only a faith which is to be followed with some writings in a book.
And about the Sati pratha,Child Marriage then let me tell you and all here.. Our Sanatan Dharam never advocated the Sati pratha..It might had been followed in small section of society earlier but it was not all across over in our culture,traditions.Child Marriage was not a concept before Muslims invaders.It was because the Muslim Army man used to pick unmarried young girls from the villages,people started to marry off their girls at early young age.It was never part of Hinduism. The Social Reformer like Raja Ram Mohan Rai,Arya Samaj abolished the Sati pratha which was in smaller portion of the Society.
And about the point you made in fasting in your faith to the Fast that Hindus does.You point out your fasting is the real one.Do you really know the logical reason behind fasting ?What you know about the fasting is being practised by Hindus?How many 'वर्त' Hindus do keep. Without knowing the Hinduism don't come up with the points against it.Why your faith ask you to keep fast?Why didn't you innovate the different means of paying worship to the GOD.Why this concept has been taken from the Hinduism ?
I don't want to comment on the various faiths around in India but you yourself advocating the acts of Taliban.Taliban is pressuring Muslim woman to go with their faith which muslims over there reluctant to follow.
And you are not from any survey dept. of India to find out the real Hindu. If you are not afraid of making the all bad remarks about the Hinduism then don't complain about the backlash against you.Lejo, In End mark my words in your mind "मजहब नहीं सिखाता आपस में बैर रखना , हिंदी है हम वतन है हिंदुस्तान हमारा" . This Hindustan is for everyone who believe themselves the part of this great Country.The way you are associating it with Hindus as religion then you are wrong.There is no difference between you and the Jihadis. Your wordings against Hinduism/Hindutva are not at all tolerable.
