The volcano of Hindu fury erupts sometimes
An article by François Gautier:
( François Gautier is a French journalist, editor of the Paris-based La Revue de l’Inde (lesbelleslettres.com) and the author of The Guru of Joy (Hays House, 2007) and A New History of India (Har Anand, New Delhi, 2008)
INSTEAD of calling an all-party meet to resolve the Jammu and Kashmir row, the government would do well to try to understand the fury of Hindus and not limit the scope of the introspection to the Amarnath issue. Are Hindus angry only with the hypocrisy of the government on the land issue? Are there no other topics that make them furious?
Hindus are a peace-loving people. The average Hindu is easy-going and accepts you and your diversity, whether you are Christian, Muslim, Parsi or Jain, Arab, French or Chinese. He goes about his business and usually does not interfere in yours. In fact they take it a little further: They hate trouble and go out of their way to avoid it.

About 40 members of Gujarati Mahila Mandal, Vikhroli (Mumbai) visited Sree Ramadasa Ashram, Ramagiri today.
The devout ladies enjoyed a holy dip in the Barvi River bordering the ashram, and worshipped Lord Shiva present there as Shri Rameshwar Shivalinga.
This was followed by a day of prayer attending the poojas at the temple, and indulging in sweet Bhajan-Kirtan. They also had the opportunity to perform Lalitha Sahasranaam Archana at the temple. The ashram provided them breakfast and lunch.The Mandal members were very happy at the culmination of a fruitful day of prayer at Ramagiri !
All seekers of solace and divine blessings are welcome to come and partake of the holy environment of Ramagiri. Swamiji had said “This land is a Punnya Bhoomi” . May His blessings reach all who come to Ramagiri !
