https://youtube/watch?v=yjehSYhSf4M&feature=youtu.be the following is by brother Le Soleil De Miel Sri Aurobindo ( 15 Aug. 1872 - 5 Dec.1950 ), was a great patriot revolutionary , a Maha Yogi, a saint, a great philosopher and a godly figure of India. He is universally considered as a great Rishi and Seer. Below are some words of the Master : “You can live amicably with a religion whose principle is toleration, but how is it possible to live peacefully with a religion whose principle is ‘I will not tolerate you’? How are you going to have unity with these people (Muslims)? Certainly Hindu–Muslim unity can not be arrived at on the basis that the Muslims will go on converting Hindus while the Hindus should not convert any Mohammedan. “…You can’t build unity on such a basis. Perhaps, the only way of making the Mohammedans harmless is to make them loose their fanatic faith in their religion.” [Rishi Sri Aurobindo said on July 23, 1923. Evening talks with Sri Aurobindo; recorded by A.B. Purani, published by Sri Aurobindo Ashram Trust, 1995, p. 291] On April 18, 1923 Sri Aurobindo in reply to a question of a disciple: “I am sorry they (Pandit Madan Mohan Malavya and Chakravorty Rajagoplachari – two contemporary politicians in India under British rule) are making a fetish of this Hindu-Muslim unity. It is no use to ignore facts; some day the Hindus may have to fight the Muslims and they must prepare for it. Hindu-Muslim unity should not mean the subjection of the Hindus. Every time the mildness of the Hindu has given way. The best solution would be to allow the Hindus to organize themselves and the Hindu-Muslim unity would take care of itself, it would automatically solve their problem. Otherwise we are lured in to a false sense of satisfaction that we have solved a difficult problem, when in fact we have only shelved it.” [ibid, p 289] On June 29, 1926, a disciple asked Sri Aurobindo, “if it is India’s destiny to assimilate all the conflicting elements, is it possible to assimilate the Mohammedan element also?’ Sri Aurobindo replied’: “Why not? India has assimilated elements from the Greeks, the Persians and other nations. But she assimilates only when her central truth is recognized by the other party, and even while assimilating she does it in such a way that the elements absorbed as foreign but become part of herself... The assimilation of the Mohammedan culture also was done in the mind to a great extent and it would have perhaps gone further. But in order that the process may be complete it is necessary that a change in the Mohammedan mentality should come. The conflict is in the outer life and unless the Mohammedans learn tolerance I do not think the assimilation is possible”. On Hindu-Muslim relation Sri Aurobindo said on December 30, 1939. “I told C.R. Das (in 1923: Chitta Ranjan Das, a great Indian patriot, revolutionist and eminent lawyer) that this Hindu. Muslim question must be solved before the British go, otherwise there was a danger of civil war. He also agreed and wanted to solve it.” [ibid, p. 696] The attempt to placate the Mahomedans was a false diplomacy . Instead of achieving Hindu -Muslim unity directly , if the Hindus had devoted themselves to National work , the Mahomedans would have gradually come of themselves .... This attempt to patch up a unity has given too much importance to the Muslims and it has been the root of all these troubles . -Sri Aurobindo. Told in 1926, these words of the Master has never lost its relevance ! Savarkar had said , if Muslims come , along with them ; if they do not come , without them ; if they oppose , in spite of them ; we Hindus will fight and achieve Independence . But Indians became blind followers of Gandhijis placating policy of which the Mahatma was a Master (see how he ran to Jinnah not once or twice but Seventeen times ) ; on account of which he laid down his life ! If his life is considered to be his Message , then All Hindus should also die to support the Muslim cause !
