Origin of the Word Hindu
People who accept the Vedas as their supreme divine scriptures are globally known as Hindus. Some persons assert that the word Hindu does not appear in any of Hindu religious scriptures, and, that this adjective as a collective identity for people living on the east of the Sindhu river in India was first imposed by the eighth century Arab Muslim invaders. Some writers suggest that the word Hindu is Persian pronunciation of Sindhu as according to them Persians pronounce S as H which Muslim Arab invaders are supposed to have picked up for people living on the east of the river Sindhu. All above assertions are incorrect. The word Hindu has no Persian or Islamic roots. Read More

We Hindus are the original inhabitants of Bharat
There was an Aryan Invasion Theory invented and popularised by the East India Company paid experts and Christian missionaries so as to legitimatise British rule over India which postulated that fair skinned Hindus, termed Aryans were not the original inhabitants of Bharat as Aryan people who composed Vedas came to India from the western countries, some say from the Russian steppes, invaded local inhabitants designated as Dravidians by a British Christian missionary Bishop Robert Caldwell in 1875. The idea behind the AIT was that Hindus themselves being immigrants and foreigners in India had no right to ask the British to leave India, both being foreigners, both being immigrants. Read More

Following is the extract from HH Swami Purna's letter to Ambassador OP Gupta
“I presented your research articles to the Dharam sansad held in November 2003. They greatly appreciated and welcomed your thoughts and were delighted that a person like you- in the Foreign Service–understands the meaning and values of the Vedas. There was all round support for your proposals to reform Hinduism and return to our Vedic roots of equality by birth and gender equality. I have been closely working with the Shankaracharya of Jyotirmath who has also given his unconditional support to your efforts”.(February 2004) Read More…

In his book(Vedic Equality & Hindusim), Ambassador Gupta with mathematical precision, scientific rationalism and diplomatic finesse has conclusively demonstrated in simple language that Vedic Hinduism has always been all-inclusive and that it is also a missionary religion. The most appealing aspect of this book is that it relies exclusively upon the original sources i.e. Vedic richas and slokas of Shrimad Bhagwat Gita to substantiate that untouchabilty and
gender inequality are totally alien to thé Vedic Hinduism. The other strong point of the book is that translations of Vedic richas into English and Hindi by many internationally reputed authors (Griffith, Wilson, Acharya Sharma etc) have been relied upon. The author has also discussed as to why Gandhi and Ambedkar did not fully succeed in eradicating untouchabilty and casteism, and; suggests how should one now go about to eradicate these. Read More
