Was partition of India a good thing?

Its difficult to say as of now, but probably time will prove if it was a good thing or bad, but it has been the best thing to have happened for Indian Civilisation and Indian religions for the last 1000 years. As for as the Indian culture and religions are concerned such as Hinduism in its various forms, Jainism, Buddhism and Sikhism this is the time for revival and flourish without the fear orf prosecution by the intolerant Muslim rulers as in the past.



So as far as our culture and religions are concerned its a good thing in a way that there is no harassment form muslims but this has let to various castes taking over the mantle of being the ruling class and the unity among Hindus is diminishing. Also the growth and revival of hinduism which happened in the 18th and 19th centuries such as the Arya Samaj and Brohma Samaj is not happening, atleast Hindua co go to their temples and pray to whichever god they wish.



About India itself as an entity, the best thing would have been the complete partition i.e the whole population of Muslims should have been chased out to their dreamland of Pakistan as Hindus and Sikhs have been chased out of Pakistan since before Independence.



To take the positives out of what we have now, is that we have a manageble population of muslims in India and they are evenly spread out with the exception of Kashmir which has a majority population. Managing the muslims of pakistan and bangladesh along with India's would have been extreamly difficult and probably muslims would be ruling India by now, as they as a group are much more united then the hindus.

India as a country itself is intact partly due to pakistan, has history has shown that muslim invaders were able to easily defeat Indian kings as they were never united and did not help each other, and people are well aware that they cannot face the threat of muslim invasion of india unless they are united. Moreover the prescence of muslim minoroty in india itself is an uniting factor for Hindus as every caste of hindus are hostile towards muslims when it comes to country and religion, in the abscence of this significant minority probably there would have been more intercaste wars to deal with.

The drawback of having such a significant minority is the sympathy majority of muslims have towards pakistan which inturn is leading to more and more terrorist attacks on india. No denial that some muslims love India but only time will test them. As for now we should make the most of what we have create a strong india which can supress any revolt against it ruthlessly without fearing any country and revive the past glory of Hindu and \indian civilisation, revive its ancient arts and culture..

What do women really want?

Even god doesn't know, which probably sums it all, though I just have had one experience of trying to do my best to keep her(women) happy and entertained and to make her love me, but it turned out that it was not good enough , I could not balance out things, I was humiliated, i was laughed at by people without any ethics or values in life, Left me with a bitter experience which I am at the moment trying seriously to overcome.

So this query will remain unanswered for ever I think , as nobody knows what women really want, the best thing to do is ignore her and carry on with your life.

Sitting in my room alone contemplating things, my life, my journey and my achivements, its going to be India's 62 independence day today i.e 15th august. But i am away from my motherland for the 6th consequtive year, I remember the 50th Independence day celebrations and how grand they were back home in India, I wanted to document that historical event in my personal dairy, which i did and will be interesting to read that when i get a chance, as for now the famous Nehru speech is reverbirating in my mind " when the whole world sleeps , India awakes"
