In reply to sushila agnihotri. Sushilaji, Thank you for your note. I live in SF Bay Area. There is a lot to do to correct wrong narrative about Hinduism. Writing/publishing is one such good option. Read my other writings on Google. Please join me in variety of activities.

In reply to John Watson. Thank you for your comment. Within faith issues are there with all faiths, Hinduism is disproportionally blamed with caste narratives. It is a working progress and major improvement has already have been made. Yes I meant proselytizer objective.

A well written concise and succinct analysis, that describes what Hindus experience and suffer regularly. You are Indian, Hindu and whoa, immediately caste is conspicuously stamped on your forehead. My gut feelings totally rejected this populist view and narrative of my culture, traditions and civilisation. Hindus have continuously been tarred, so unfairly with the Caste label. My search for reality and truth freed me from these negative and judgmental stereotypes and I stand firm with my Hindu brothers and sisters and continue to strive to speak my truth. I lived in California for 5 years and was witness to the California school text books. Listening to the students testify about their bullying experiences. How brave and valiant they were to stand in front of strangers, and expose your innermost feelings. Their heart wrenching, pleas for fairness and equitable representation, fell on stone hearts and deaf ears. For me, a mind boggling, ridiculous and utterly incomprehensible situation. Protect the culture or protect the child? Both are intrinsically connected. I have no legal training but have a belief that rather than going the School Board route, (and the battle with the social science academics and use of Witzel to testify on their behalf) perhaps appealing to UNICEF and the Convention of the Child may have been a better, stronger and clearer option of seeking to protect the child. Why? One party vehemantly seeks to maintain control of their position, whereas the other party is totally concerned with the rights and well being of the child. I strongly advocate that all of us should: resist referring to India as South Asia (air brushing of Indian history and culture) refer to India as Bharat (disconnecting us from our ancient culture) refrain from using the term Hinduism and call ourselves as Sanatanis (why do we continue to utilise a term that someone else gave us, someone else added an 'ism', and others use to denigrate, attack and vilify us with) Dilipji, my heart felt namaskar and thank you. Sushila

“The caste narrative is often leveraged for political or ideological gains. India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s perceived alignment with figures like Donald Trump has fueled such portrayals, linking Hindus with right-wing politics in America. Additionally, some caste-related activism may stem from evangelical agendas aimed at discrediting Hinduism.” Are you using the term “evangelical” to indicate proselytising Christianity?
