Nalanda University: A Brief History Lesson and Some Homework

A brief history lesson and then some homework:


I. Brief History Lesson:

Nalanda University was attacked three times:

First attack: Mihirakula (Huns)
Second attack: Shashanka (Gauda Dynasty, Brahmin)
Third attack: Bhakhtyar Khilji (Muslim)

II. Homework:

1. Read about Mihirakula and Shashanka. Where were they from? Which religions did they subscribe to? Which form of God did they worship?

2. Ask yourself: Why is it that we are only taught about Bhakhtyar Khilji but not Mihirakula and Shashanka? What's the agenda?

Be sharp, very sharp! Know that whenever history is taught to us with distortions and omissions, there is a "Divide and Rule" political agenda behind it.

The truth is simply this: History is full of wars, violence and destruction by people of ALL faiths, ALL sects. And the only sensible way forward is this: QUIT FIGHTING! LIVE TOGETHER! LIVE AND LET LIVE!

Progress and Development is possible ONLY if we stop wasting our time and energy in fighting with each other and work together to take the nation forward. THERE IS NO OTHER WAY. Period.
