Jaya Hanumanji | జయహనుమాన్ జీ

Manusmriti says – “Yetat desa prasootasya – sakaasaat agrajanmanh; swam swam charitram siksheran – prithivyah sarva manavah.” It means that from the best people born in this country, all people in this world received their respective dharmas. Nokak who made a good study of the ancient world, wrote like this. Our poeple used to leave our country and go to Sri Lanka in south and to various countries, by crossing the Himalayas in the north. Those sciences and arts which were taken along with those people, had only become the seeds for the development of people in Europe in the fields of arts, ethics and sciences. Agastya maharshi was the first person who took the Hindu culture to the south – east Asia. In Malaya peninsula there are idols of Agastya maharishi. Island countries like Java, Sumitra, Baligormia, Cambodia and others had followed Hindu culture only.

8. ‘Hindu’ as a word for the country : Hindu word is also said to be applicable for the country, because Hindu desa is the one where the Hindus, who follow Hindu dharma, live. It is also in vogue to call those poeple who do not follow the Hindu dharma, as the Hindus because of the country’s name. Sri Mohammed Currimbhoy Chagla explained like this. “French people call the Indians as the Hindus. This is also correct description. All those who live in this country and treat this as their home are all Hindus only. In fact even though our religions are different, we are all the Hindus. Mine is Aryan Tradition. Their culture is my culture. That has come to me from them in the form of inheritance. So I am a Hindu.” That great man’s word is true. We may not have any objection to call all the people as the Hindus But except great enlightened persons like Sri. M.C. Chagla, non – Hindus do not tolerate others to call them as the Hindus based on the country’s name.
