Puppets of Faith: Theory of Communal Strife

The sublimity of Muhammad's preaching in Mecca and the severity of his sermons in Medina make Islam a Janus-faced faith that forever bedevils the mind of the Musalmans. This thought-provoking work, besides dissecting the anatomy of Islam, steeped in the Quran, seeks to depict the psyche of the Musalmans, shaped by the proclivities of their prophet, vicissitudes of his life and the attitudes of his detractors, which the mechanism of their umma perpetuates. More to the point, aided by “I’m Ok – You’re Ok”, the path-breaking work of Thomas A. Harris and Roland E Miller’s “Muslim Friends–Their Faith and Feeling”, this book, for the first time ever, psycho-analyzes the imperatives of the Muslim upbringing, which has the potential to turn a faithful and a renegade alike into a fidayeen. Also, apart from delving into the ironies of the faiths that affected the fate of the peoples, eclipsed the cultures of communes, altered the course of history and afflict the politics of the day, this book examines how the sanãtana 'Hindu' dharma came to survive in India, in spite of the combined onslaught of Islam and the Christianity on Hinduism for over a millennium. This book is for those who wish to be aware of the follies of their faith and the foibles of others to lighten the burden of dogma and reduce the baggage of prejudice postulated in its thirty-four well-structured chapters. Also, besides providing a panoramic view of the Indian history, this thought-provoking book appraises the way Gandhi, Nehru, Patel, Azad, Ambedkar, Indira Gandhi, Narasimha Rao, Vajpayee, Manmohan Singh, Sonia Gandhi, Narendra Modi et al made or unmade the post-colonial India. Possibly in a new genre, this free ebook is a book for our times.

INTRODUCTION: Shree Kshetra Dattatreya temple is dedicated to God Dattatreya who is an Incarnation of the Divine Trinity of lord Brahma,Vishnu and Shiva.Bramha is the creator who creates things, Vishnu is the operator he is the one who operates the universe and Shiva is the destroyer who destroys harmful & old things. The temple is dedicated to Sri Narasimha Saraswathi swami who is considered as a 2nd reincarnation of Lord Dattatreya himself and lived around 550 years ago.Temple is simple,messy and not well maintained though.But throngs many devotees to visit this shrine.Around the vicinity of the temple there is confluence of two rivers Bhima and Amaraja which are considered extremely holy and whoever takes bath in this Sangam, will be free from their sins and their wishes will be fulfilled.Shreeguruswamiji had said to the disciples and citizens of Ganagapur as follows. “ Vasathi rani sangamase jate nithya bikshese taya vare Gangapurase madyana kala pareyasa” “ You need not worry. I shall stay at this Ganagapur kshetra secretly and will receive poojas at this Kshetra in the form of Padukas”. festivals that are celebrated with great ravelry here. Datta Jayanti (birth anniversary of Shri Dattatreya), Guru Purnima (The special day in the Hindu calendar dedicated to all teachers and gurus), and Shravan Maas (the holy month of Shravan) attracts large crowds of devotees, who come from every corner of the country and place their heads on these sacred grounds in the hopes of being blessed with lasting happiness and wisdom. People suffering from Chronic diseases,Mentally retarded, Psychological problems,People overpowered with evil spirits come to this place to get remedy through pooja and hawans performed by priests in the temple.The trouble of bad or evil spirits and ghosts vanishes and one can get peace of mind with the darshan of Swamy Padukas at this Kshetra. Many people get thier wishes fullfilled, solve their problems and dreams from God's grace soon after visiting Ganagapur and after taking just "Nirgun Paduka" Darshan of God.One can feel the positive energy in Ganagapur if they come up with positive attitude and belief towards God and the temple.Its still a hard fact to trust and wonder if black magic,evil spirits really could exist but truly this place is spooky and very powerful with supernatural powers existing which have no answers till date by anyone.The unnerving experience of the temple will forever remain hidden in the devotees own hearts.
