WHAT IS COMMUNALISM?
wHEN THE UNITY OF A SOCIETY IS DIVIDED on the basis of religion , caste, race or color there is said to have social communalism. iT IS ANTI-HUMANE , anti- progressive and anti democratic.. When politics act as the capital investment of religion, communalism crop up in the society which divides the society into compartments of vested interests raised by religion and caste. Rituals work within the boundary of religion , caste and race which is particular to the concerned group only and it must be as such. Going to the mosque or church is not a common question but a question before the concerned group only. In a secular society no religion or its ritual can dominate the social life. Rituals, its learning, and its propoganda canot be taken as a burden by the common society because common society stands for the common goal. Strictly speaking constitution is the religion of our country and nobody living in India is supposed to violate it.
Spirituality is not a religion sponsored state. Religion has authority and hierarchy of authority, delegation of authority and assignment of duties where spirituality cannot survive in its true meaning. Hence religious leaders are not spiritual leaders. State of power cannot generate spirituality. In its strict sense spirituality is a powerless state and a powerful voice It is a light of self without self. Hence no religious movements may travel with spirituality and cannot be the spokesmen of spirituality..
In principle , religious movements without spirituality stand for communalism. In this light of knowledge different communities have to be purified by the course of time. They have to look into the history and should be dare enough to accept the changes the time demands.
It is only Sree Narayana guru who can enjoy the glimpses of spirituality. .Spirituality is the moral science of unity. where one can see all and all can see the one. It is the moral transaction of love. It is the process of self purification breaking boundaries of caste and religion. Communalism is a pseudo agenda for many of the organisations. Hierarchy of organisation and its grammar and rules is closely associated with power and authority. This power and authority when exercised breaks the morality of love and friendship and often chases behind temptations. Communalism is a way of temptation addressing religion , caste or race. Communalism has easy way to terrorism. It stands in the productive thought and prosperity resulting network problems among the people belonjging to different classes.
