This contains a painful commentary of the great Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi legacy and the atrocities of Hinduism. Mother Theresa is often recognized as a marvelous woman, whose compassion knew no end, when it came to accompanying people through the remains of life into death. Yet it should also have been noticed that she failed to point out sharply enough how much Hinduism itself is the producer of the tragedy in the lives of those whom she kindly helped to die. Had that been a part of her mission, she would have been able to do even more for her charges. For a Christian does not merely provide for the needs of the dying. In their life men and women and children already deserve deliverance from fatalism that is born of the inhuman perspective on gods and nature, on human beings and even reality itself that is the fruit of Hinduism. Then perhaps she would have pointed out not only Ghandis influence in the movement towards Indian independence from Britain, but also his extremely harmful teaching on the economic and social development of India. We would have recognized that he not only did good things, but that, in affirming Hitlers antisemitism in his writings, Ghandi was often utterly wrong. His non-violence towards the British did nothing to diffuse the violence of his Hindu world view towards human life.
