What a frustration!  By discussing these I shall not be a member of any political/religous member. 
  
>>>People like we wi/Dhatri and Radhikarajen/Bhat - obviously lacking the
>>>courage to divulge their real names - are the priestly folks where
>>>people like Pawan are the kshatriyas in the varnasrama type "division
>>>of labour" among this list's saffron flag-bearers. 
 
Lol haha! I neither I be a priest nor I took coaching in any! I am a civilian of this country called INDIA.   Better i say responsible. 
 
>>>(Let us hope the kshatriyas will earn a promotion to brahminhood sometime.) 
Only one time happened in the HISTORY, Surya vamshi royal king Viswamithra was attained BRAHMARSHI status after years of TAPAS breakdown to conquer the (kam,krodh,lobh,moha,mada,matsarya)  and again TAPAS.  Your interest to know PAWAN caste is silly. I am not asking to perform holy practices but You should try to know what is what and their contents by original.  
 
1)What is veda who divided them into 4?
2)What is upanishad,purana?
3)What is Ramayan?
4)What is Mahabharat?
5)What is Bhagavat(if you read the original sanskrit version then u come to know how this world created,maintained and going to destroy by BRAHMA,VISHNU,MAHESWAR. The list of people who rule earth until end of KALIYUG)
5)What is BhagavatGITA?
 
 
Vishnu sahasranaam,lalitha sahasranaam are just parts of it.  They are not just scriptures or slokas u come to know!
This is the history n this is the INDIA and we are into social lives.  If you are abusing n spreading false information over religon, caste and INDIA how can anybody tolerate(EVERY BODY FEEL AND RESPOND WITH HOWEVER SMALL INFORMATION THEY KNOW ABOUT these, I CAN'T GIVE NUMBER IN FIGURES).   It is better if somebody like your parents/grand parents would have told to you about these as BEDTIME stories.   I wont neither ask you or anybody to byheart,digest but atleast you should know.  It is good if you read some of them.  You need not join or leave your day to day work but just try to spend few minutes(say 10minutes)  for ...........
 
Know the history,cultrue,tradion and find yourself,  
 
PS: Here "you" mean those are all who spread wrong information/gossip about INDIA, let they be leftists,islamists,aethists,separatists,Christians,half backed HISTORIANS(INDIAN OR WESTREN) selfish natured propagandists.

Kshemendra,

Thank you. Your concern is quite natural. I perfectly under why you
see what seems like a lack of concern for KPs on account of a process
similar to the one for which some of us have shown concern for people
(not just those who come under the ST category in law) displaced by
so-called development projects. I think this lack of concern is
apparent, not real, and is the result of something I have mentioned in
a couple of mails, including the last one (to which you responded) -
what Aditya, Pawan and some others have been doing on this list. It is
because of these people that I, personally, would think ten times
before even attending the kind of meeting Kirdar has proposed even if
I were in the vicinity (which I am not). Would the KPs be worse off
because of my hypothetical absence from that hypothetical meeting? I
don't think so. And there woud always the Pawans and Adityas of the
world to take up the slack, if there were any slack to be taken up.

If you want to know exactly why I think they are propagandists of the
Parivar, I will have to go through months of posts in the archive.
That will also help me gauge the depth of their fascist
leanings/fascism. But this will be a major project, taking up a huge
amount of time and energy. I cannot afford that at the moment, but
plan to take up in future. Thank you for giving me a great idea.

In their case, it is not a question of "not thinking like me". I do
not agree with everything Inder says, but I do not consider him a
fanatic of any sort, much less a fascist. Some of the things Shivam
has written in the past - after his return from Kashmir - has seemed
to me a jaundiced view. But he never sounded like a fanatic or
fascist.

It's not their (Pawan, etc.) religiosity but the way they have forced
the Hindutva agenda on this list - it was Vedavati who started it two
or three years ago, if I remember - and insist on bullying the rest of
us into submission that I find not only distasteful but totally
unacceptable. Unfortunately, this is what the Parivar is all about.
Had that not been the case, BJP, Shiv Sena, etc., would have got many
more votes than it gets.

People like we wi/Dhatri and Radhikarajen/Bhat - obviously lacking the
courage to divulge their real names - are the priestly folks where
people like Pawan are the kshatriyas in the varnasrama type "division
of labour" among this list's saffron flag-bearers. (Let us hope the
kshatriyas will earn a promotion to brahminhood sometime.) You answer
them with history, logic, etc., and they get back to you with shlokas
and thousands of words of obscure and often undecipherable prose,
regurgitating stuff they have found in the scriptures or secondary
sources. As if these scriptures have no history, are above history the
way the Babari Masjid demolition was about "Hindu sentiment", not
history - which could be rewritten to accommodate the "sentiments" of
these fascists, not the entire Hindu population by far.

Of course, the Vedas were revealed, not written by mortals who ate,
drank, possibly made merry, and definitely disposed of their bodily
waste in the morning. How could I forget that? I guess I forget
because this list is run from an institution called the Centre for
Studies in Developing Societies, which is affiliated to something
called the Indian Council of Social Science Research.
