As per Hindu tradition, it will not allow Buddhism to come back or flourish in the Hindu Indian country. Simranjit Singh Mann, Member of Parliament.
The Tribune dated 21st October 2023.
Comments by Simranjit Singh Mann: Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar) states that the shelving of the Buddhist studies institute in Lahaul-Spiti does not come to us as a surprise as Hindutva down the ages has not allowed any indigenous faith to survive in the Indian subcontinent.
Local tradition relates that the Brahmin teacher Sankaracharya came to Nagarjuna Konda with a host of followers and destroyed the Buddhist monuments. The cultivated lands on which the ruined buildings stand was a religious grant made to Sankaracharya. In Kerala, Sankaracharya and his Hindu fanatic close associate Kumarila Bhatta, an avowed enemy of Buddhism, organized a religious crusade against the Buddhists. We get a vivid description of the pleasure of Sankaracharaya on seeing the people of non-Brahmanic faith (Buddhism) being burnt to death from the book Sankara Digvijaya (World Victory).
Therefore, it is natural that the present Union Hindutva Government of the BJP-RSS led by Premier Narendra Modi would not allow Buddhism to flourish near Tibet which is in the hands of Communist China, which is also encouraging the Buddhists faith.
As such Buddhism now stands driven out of the Indian subcontinent and flourishes in Tibet, Communist China, Burma, Sri Lanka and South East Asia.
Jainism which is an indigenous religion has also not been allowed to flourish by Hindutva and its fanatics. To stay alive in the Indian subcontinent it had to make a compromise with the Hindu religion. This compromise was reached when the Jain Monks agreed to keep Hindu idols in their Temples.
Today the third indigenous religion Sikhism is under great stress as the ruling ultra fanatic BJP-RSS Union Government is trying to devour Sikhism into its omnivorous belly. In 1984 the Hindu Indian state militarily with the help of Soviet and British forces made an ingress into the holiest Sikh shrine the Darbar Sahib (Golden temple) at Amritsar in a vicious military attack named Operation Bluestar. In this barbaric misadventure the Hindutva regime committed the genocide, memoricide, vandalism and ethnocide. Later that very year Premier Rajiv Gandhi not only committed the genocide of the Sikh peoples but also their ethnic cleansing.
The Hindu state under the Cabinet Secretariat, National Security Advisor and his affiliated Intelligence Agencies the R&AW, I.B, Military Intelligence and Special Group have committed assassinations of Sikhs in Canada, namely of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, Ripudaman Singh Malik and Sukhdool Singh and the Canadian Prime Minister Justine Trudeau has in his Parliament in Ottawa condemned these assassinations.
In Britain this very conglomerate mentioned above poisoned a Sikh activist Avtar Singh Khanda to death. The UK Government has ordered the coroner to investigate and find out the cause of the death as earlier Russian intelligence had poisoned a Russian dissenter Lt. Col. Alexander Litvinenko to death. He was done to death by administrating a poison Polonium, which is, a derivate of Uranium. Since the Hindu Indian state and Russia are as thick as thieves we do not doubt about the killers of Sikhs obtaining doses of Polonium from Russia. On 25th December 2022 three Russian dissenters Pavel Antov and Vladimir Bidenov died mysterious deaths in Orrisa. We have tried to have their deaths probed but without success as we are a small minority.
The Hindu Indian state being the accused in these assassinations has, just the other day expelled Canadian diplomats from the Hindu Indian state. It has also ordered that no Canadian will receive a visa for travel to the Hindu Indian state. This will not hurt the Canadian’s but it will seriously hurt the Sikh Canadians who have their friends and families in Hindu India. These are all exercises to see that the Sikhs loose their Sikh temperament and élan and compromise with Hindutva, Hinduism and eventually like the Buddhists and Jains leave their land of birth, that being the Indian subcontinent and find homes like the Buddhists out side this subcontinent.
