India's & Hinduism's great awakening.
I think after centuries, a grand Hindu revival is happening once again.
Hinduism today is going through reforms which will take it more closer
to roots. Never before, there was an intense dialogue on corrupted
caste system. Dalits are gaining entries in major temples one after
another and are becoming priests, Youth is becoming more interested in
philosophy rather than just following rituals without understanding the
meaning behind, Hindu religious tourism has broken all previous
records, Kumbh melas -the largest religious gathering on earth are
becoming bigger and bigger, TRP's of Hindu religious channels (mostly
in Hindi) are envy for the mainstream channels. Now deep spiritual
meanings which were only discussed among few before are reaching inside
bedrooms of millions of Hindus in and outside India.
I think ifin India Hinduism is going through reformation, then in west Hinduism
is attracting people in its purest Vedic form which is free from the
bonds of culture and superstitions.
Not just spiritual awakening but India today is also gaining Economic and Military power status.
I think these are the years of India's great awakening which Swami Vivekananda prophesied eighty six years ago: "The longest night seems to be coming to an end at last
,the seeming corpse appears to be awakening and a voice is coming to
us-away back history and even tradition fails to peep into the gloom of
the past ,coming down from there,reflected as it were from from peak to
peak of the Infinite Himalayas,it is bringing life into the almost dead
bones and muscles,the lethargy ,is passing away, and only the blind
cannot see,or the perverted will not see,that she is awakening,this
motherland of ours from her deep long slepp. None can resist her any
more:never is she is going to sleep any more:no outwards powers can
hold her any more "for the infinite Giant is rising to her feet. But modern India is only an infant giant,still rising to her feet. She is yet to attain her full stature."
