Hindus are not following the congregational method of prayer andthis is the reason for our lack of unity. The Muslims meet 5 times in aday and bonding is strongest among them. Christians meet once in a weekand this creates unity amongst them. Hindus never meet for in oursystem religion is an individual pursuit. But in the present aggressiveand debased environment we have to converge together for unitedresistance against alien forces. The Hindus are isolated, politicallyand economically. The entire TV & press are against Hindus, andfinally Hindus are against Hindus. Hindus do not have one nationalleader who can emerge as a powerful unifying factor. The present cropof religious leaders are busy cultivating white men and women andseeking their charity, so they keep harping their own fabricatedtheories. A genuine Hindu leader is yet to emerge.

Organise through RSS.

Hindu teachings are basically different from Islamic and Christian teachings. Hinduism is about individual self-realization, not about forming a social mob. In Christianity and Islam, the belief is in a God separate from his creation and prayer is about bowing down to seek blessings and this is conveniently done in a congregation. In Hinduism, the individual is called upon to unfold the divinity within him and the pace for this differs from individual to individual and hence congregational prayers do not make sense - it is more about individual meditation.If we are talking about Hindus organizing against Islamic and Christian onslaught, why do we forget that we have an excellent and unique organization in the RSS and all we have to do is to participate in its programmes to strengthen Hindus socially. When we have the RSS, do we need salvation in the form of a single individual?
