Sangha Politics

Sangha has encapsulated and pinpointed its ideology in a single word - “Hindutva”, which word denotes broad-mindedness. Hindutva is opposed to all narrow mindedness, whether couched in religions, traditions or social practises.

It cannot be denied that one of the most influential “narrow-mindedness” going around is the Semitic religions’ assertion that theirs is the only true religion. Thus the “anti-minority” (read anti-Muslim and anti-Christian) image Sangha has is largely due to its consistent stand against this narrow-minded assertion of the two major Semitic religions.
