Only ‘humane Rama’ can face conspiracy of Rama Mandir construction: Prasanna
‘Hey Ram’- Ramayana, a discourse
Udupi, July 22: “Those who have only single digit strength have got 300 number strength in the name of Rama. Once again, they will make a conspiracy of Rama Mandir construction in a few months. The only way to face this conspiracy effectively is the ‘humane Rama’. Otherwise, people can say ‘Hey Ram’ and become martyrs. Now, we have to prepare to become martyrs”, said scholar, theatre activist and Charaka-fame Prasanna.
He was speaking at a discourse on ‘Hey Ram- Ramayana- organized by the Asakta Balaga at MGM College here on Sunday.
Prasanna said that “today Ramayana is being misused. We have just identified the dissent between Rama and Ravana. But we have failed to identify that the culture tried to build by Rama was different from the culture built by his father Dasharatha. Because of this reason, the Ramayana is being misused. In Ramayana, we have been observing the drama of Brahminization. In that Ramayana, we have been fight to prove Rama as the God. This is a peculiar and unreasonable argument. If we have to consider that Rama was born god and died as god, then Rama did not have any growth. Rama Rajya is equal to Grama Rajya. But the people have given arrow to single Rama where Grama Rajya is not there to fight with Babar and made Anjaneya as a demon and he would not accept such a Ramayana”, he said.
“Anjaneya was a gentleman. But today, he was depicted as Bajrang Bali and pasted him behind autos and vehicles. We have seen Vivekananda as a man who protected Hindu religion. But we are deliberately not seeing his critical analysis of various unreasonable practices in the Hindu religion or for social justice. Vivekananda who had consumed beef in America, had expressed it openly. But it was not because of insulting or giving pain to Hindus. He had done to bring the Hindus from heinous symbols and practices and introduce contemporary reality. He had advocated that cows should be protected in the farms of the farmers”, he said.
Writer Dr Mahabaleshwar Rao presided over the programme in which scholar Prof Phaniraj and others were present.
Rahul Gandhi who tells truth is buffoon!
Rahul Gandhi who tells truth is considered as a buffoon. Unfortunately, Narendra Modi who lies is a strong person. Because, people were not believing Rahul Gandhi’s leaders like Siddaramaiah and DK Shivakumar. In the same way, people would not believe Yeddyurappa. But they would believe Rama. This was the reality, he said.
Around 80 per cent of today's culture was at the stage of dying and 20 per cent was in a position of living. The culture of the land was in a fix and every day it was being proved and everyone knew who involved in violence knew it. People should find ways to come out of this vicious circle. It was not possible to face the apprehension emerged out of indecency only politically. Both the wicked and those who keep silent were equally responsible for this indecency, he said.
Show culture to Shudras
People from middle class who knew English have been advocating the crime sitting behind the machines by trolling in social media. It was the tragedy of the country that the crime being advocated by the political party was being implemented by the poor and shudras. The poor were being hounded by the poor. Forget the defeat, but the Shudra youth should be shown the real culture by telling them the truth, he opined.

If Muslim-majority Wayanad can elect non-Muslims, surely Rae Bareli can elect Muslims: Owaisi
New Delhi (PTI): If Muslim-majority seats like Wayanad can elect non-Muslims, surely Rae Bareli, Amethi and Etawah can elect Muslims, AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi said on Wednesday, lamenting the small number of Muslim MPs in the Lok Sabha.
Reiterating B R Ambedkar's views, Owaisi said for India to be democracy in the substantial sense, political power must be held by the most marginalised and the weakest.
"He (Ambedkar) repeatedly said political power is the key to social progress. You have only four per cent Muslims here. The ruling party has no Muslim member," he said in a debate on election reforms in Lok Sabha.
He lamented that the small number of Muslims in Lok Sabha.
"Muslims are not there, they are not reflected in the secular parties for example if Muslim-majority seats like Wayanad can elect non-Muslims, surely Rae Bareli, Amethi and Etawah can elect Muslims," Owaisi said in an apparent swipe at the Congress and the Samajwadi Party.
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and Rahul Gandhi are MPs from Wayanad and Rae Bareli respectively. While Amethi and Rae Bareli has been the bastion of the Congress and the Gandhi family, Etawah has been an SP bastion.
