I was waiting the verdict of the Ayodhya Case with great tension today, and would rather watch the news then do puja attentively. Why??? Because it is not just a political or socialreligious issue, but a emotional one too. I have been in india 1992 i have seen the riots in Varanasi and Chennai and i still see the volcano of hatred and war could just explore any moment india into a very heavy bloodshet.
The Ghandhi theory to join two opposite believes together, which separated India into two countries are still the same problem over hundred of years. It created Kashmir issue, bombing and killing in bombay, hijacking planes and will never end. It is in the name of politics and religious politics where political and religious leader never come with the truth and say openly right or wrong, fearing to loose power or influence.
The Rama Janmabhumi Sthana (Place of Lord Ramas birthsite in ayodhya) was always a place of worship in antiquity (at least from the time of the Kushans, 2000 years ago!!!) or better to say the holy Mekka of the believers in Sanathana Dharma! Stumping those places of worship to dust while bringing a so called better GOD* has been the policy of the fanatic muselman not ONLY in India but all over the world right from the beginning with mohammed, the founder of this strange belief, in the year 611 AD. His Jihad* has come to our german brother doors of vienna in the year 1683 AD, and if not polish soldiers were interferring we would follow ramadan and read in arabic our newspapers today (you see germany today you could get the impression the islamic invasion did win those years back!!!).
Anyhow in the modern western world we only recognized the islamic treat from the events of the civilwar in ex jugoslavia, were our supported "uncle" Osama binLaden tried to built a first europian "real"muslim state with stoning and other shariahorrorLaws but failed, before he went to Afganistan and did it there.
But if you start to read the history of India from the time of Gazni*Mahmud (10th century) you would shiffer of fear and disgust! It was always normal practise to kill all unbelievers (kafirs) and destroying their places of worship (temples, shrines etc.) as a holy act sanctioned by Mohammed it self! And using the materials for building a mosque on top of it, was just practical. One of the most horrific events was the invasions of GazniMahmud were he invaded 17 times indias soil, destroying holy cities like Multan, Thaneswar, whole area of Rajasthan and the famous and glorious town of Somanatha (one of the 12 jyothilingam). I will write later about this maniac, who is still considered to be a great men in arabic lands.
So what you can think could bring peace after such history?

Really informative post, and i really like your blog..
Ofcourse, you are right about the demolition of temples.
Even down south, here are stories of idols being stolen, a famous one being how a Muslim princess fell in love with a stolen idol of Sri Ranganathar, and she now has her own sannathi at the temple.
Anyways, the demolition of the Babri Masjud may have been what people call the effects of the age of Kali.
Ofcourse, i am not encouraging any bloodshed here, nor am i supporting it.
But given that what has happened has happened after all, it was a relief that atleast the idols of Ram would not be removed now, especially when there is no considerable fruit out of it.
Peace, over the Ayodhya issue seems impractical, sadly.
i was not even born when the 1992 riots took place, and as a part of the younger generation, i didn't take much interest earlier on.
But, my mom, and others, were glued to the television with a lot of tension.
In fact, i was actually apologizing to Him, as it looked more like indifference to me, the whole attitude of mine.
Then, came the TV reports, which did a good work of showing what it actually was.
And, then, i struck me- it WAS actually where Rama was born.
And, all those pictures from y history textbooks, all those stories of how Sri Vaishnavism was threatened by Muslim invasions, how the Sri Rangam temple itself had been affected, it all came to me in a momentary rush.
i am no stickler for violence, but i found myself saying- what happened, happened, now let the temple not be affected.
There is no justification for the demolition of Babri Masjid, sadly, but there is none either for the fanatical acts committed by Muslims.
i guess it is the age of Kali, and what goes this way, comes back the other way.
There will be no peace as the Muslims will continue feuding with Hindus, over what, as u rightly put it, is the Vaishnavite, or rather Hindu equivalent of mecca, and perhaps more.
Ayodhya is but a model for the general unease in the minds of India.
Viele Danke! Unfortunately my Deutsch has fallen into disuse,so I could not write more.
I am really grateful that you have written so extensively and in detail about this issue.
This issue has both political and religious implications and the core of the issue is that in Islam it is combined whilst most Hindus tend to separate the issues. As long as people are willing to buy the theory that "All religions are the same" and Islam is a religion of Peace [when it is really a Religion of pieces],not only this conteroversy,but also the Kashmir Issue ,the problems with Pakistan and the Religious tensions fomented in the rest of India will continue.
