From Yogish Joshi, Redbridge

I think the most fascinating thing about this issue is that the bridge between India and Sri Lanka, that existed only as a legend in the minds of Hindus, is actually present and visible today. To me, this strengthens my faith in our scriptures by providing important validation of one of the key unbelievable facts of the Ramayana – a bridge WAS built by Shri Rama’s army to cross over to Lanka.

The fact that the Indian government wants to destroy this bridge, for questionable benefit, just reflects the perverse thinking they have in regards to Hindus. To them it seems, nothing Hindu is sacred, while anything with a weak significance to Muslims or Christians is given importance.

The key difference is that the Hindus do not yet speak with a united voice. As Hindus become stronger through unity, the views of Hindus will become difficult to ignore, as they are today.

Let’s continue to work for Hindu unity!
