The revival of Hinduism
They go to church every Sunday;
Let us go to temple on all Fridays.
They run schools, colleges and hospitals.
Let us follow suit on all spheres.
They convert low caste hindus.
Let us scrap the untouchability.
Proliferation of Christianity
Led the revivalism of Hinduism.

The graveyard
Hindus convert to Christianity
And Islam, that I loathe not
But I fear area problem.
Yes, each one wants a space
After death in graveyard,
Which demands de-vegetation.
Hindus cremate the bodies to ash.

Hypocrisy In Christianity
today is Sunday
the one day sunday christians
are off to church
these are the Christians
who are only Christian
one day Sunday a week
Christians for only one day?
one day sunday for a few hours?
sin of Hypocrisy in Christianity?
is one of the most detestable sins
it causes righteous worshippers to stumble
it takes the name of God in vain

I must swindle.
Hospitals are run for a profit.
Colleges are run for a profit.
Temples are run for a profit.
I must swindle to pay them.

It Is Needless To Ask Of A Saint
It is needless to ask of a saint the caste to which he belongs;
For the priest, the warrior. the tradesman, and all the
thirty-six castes, alike are seeking for God.
It is but folly to ask what the caste of a saint may be;
The barber has sought God, the washerwoman, and the carpenter-
Even Raidas was a seeker after God.
The Rishi Swapacha was a tanner by caste.
Hindus and Moslems alike have achieved that End, where remains no mark of distinction.
Christianity means a lot more than church membership.

The Asian Union
Don't smirk at the idea
of an Asian Union
like that of the European Union.
The secular India welcomes
and accommodates people of all cults.
But the Islamic nations
won't let the folks of other
religions to live and settle there.
As they swear by the tenets
of their holy Koran
which is immune to changes,
they will convert the new settlers
at the point of gun.
And in a span of five years
hordes of Jigadhis and militants
would trespass our borders
and capture Delhi Parliament
in a cataclysmic showdown
without firing a shot.
Recall how the Hindus upto
Afghanistan were perished or
driven to pray in mosques.
Every tomb of Moghul despots
has a vast stretch of land around it.
When we breathe the air
of freedom and honour
why should we have these
nauseating odour of the tombs?
They are not sacred shrines
to preserve as monuments.
Take over these insulting symbols
of slavery and dictatorship
and open schools and colleges
for the poor students of all folks.

Hindus are not Vedic.
The Vedic concept is the Hindutva,
We are led and made to believe.
See the Gods the Hindus worship.
Most of them are not Vedic Gods.
See their custom and practice.
They did not originate from Veda.
Muslims and Christians converted
The people in India.
Aryans converted the gods of tribes.
Tribes followed their gods
To be sheltered in the Hinduism.
Hindus are not out and out Vedic.
But still Aryan Brahmins are their cowherd.

I speak for a lot of church groups, youth groups, schools, colleges and do personal appearances. I've done conventions and trade shows. A lot of different little hats.

Caste is Hindus’ root
The high caste beggar is proud of his caste.
The low caste doctor is conscious of his caste.
No amount of education and wealth
Could eradicate the caste consciousness.

The Migrating Software Personnel
The IT firms from the colleges hire
the high achievers in shifts to perspire.
The payola the colleges collect
and the payouts of the firms the young hands wet.
They live on their nerves with hopes to migrate
and be off soon their roots to desecrate.
From a caste-ridden nation they take wing
and in a cultural mire they themselves sling.
They lose filial love but not their courage
as the English breeze ensures all the suffrage.

Sunday Christians
today is Sunday
the one day sunday christians
are off to church
these are the Christians
who are only Christian
one day Sunday a week
Christians for only one day?
one day sunday for a few hours?
sin of Hypocrisy in Christianity?
is one of the most detestable sins
it causes righteous worshippers to stumble
it takes the name of God in vain
my neighbor proclaims I am not a Christian
because I do not show go to church Sunday
she is correct I am not a Christian as she is?
this is all that she is correct in...
I do not claim to be a good Christian...
I do not even claim to be a Christian...
although every hour every day God
motivates many multiple actions in my life
God even at times enters my dreams
motivates the first actions of my day
after I arise from precious sleeping
even in sleep God is part of my life
I am Christian Buddhist Muslim Jewish
I am respectful of all who worship God
respectful of all who worship in sincerity
God said love your neighbor
I love them and pity them both
God said thy shall not judge
I am mindful of my own sins
I have pity for the sins suffering of others
I rejoice in my Lord Savior Jesus

Church Bells Ring
The church bells ring merrily
their wake up call
for all those sinner to repent
the sins they committed all week.
In their Sunday best
looking smartly dressed,
they amble down to the church
and take their place on a pew.
After several hymns they sing,
the minister gives his address
of how the evils of the world
are creeping up on all of us.
How we must be always wary
in everything we do
as the devil is always waiting
just to ensnare you.
More prayers and hymns follow
and then they are on their way.
However, did they learning anything
while they were at church today,
sadly for a lot
what was said went in one ear
and went out the other,
for during the week
they follow the same path
and go about sinning again.

If Iran becomes a nuclear weapon state it is the end of non-proliferation as we know it. If Iran gets a nuclear weapon you are likely to see Saudi, Egypt and other countries follow suit and we will bequeath to the next generation a nuclear arms race in the world's most unstable region.
Nuclear proliferation - the proliferation of WMDs altogether - is one of the greatest dangers of our time.

The cyclic movements
Ancestor worship gave way
For Jainism and Buddhism,
Which were replaced by Hinduism
To be replaced by Islam,
Which Christianity outnumbered.
Which religion is the usurper
In a cyclic movements?

Fridays Child
(v. morrison)
From the north to the south
You walked all the way
Though you left your left your home for good to stay
Oh you built all all your castles in the sun
And I watched you knock em down
Knock em down each and everyone
Fridays child cant stop now
Fridays child cant stop now
And I watched you before you came to old
Told you a long time before it ever came to be told
Youve got something they dont wanna know
See youve got to hold on hold on and never let go
Ooh fridays child cant stop now
Dont stop
Ooh fridays child cant stop now
There you go rainbows hangin around your feet
And your makin out makin out with everyone that you meet
Even havin a ball and stayin up late
And watched the sun come up round notting hill gate
Ooh fridays child cant stop now
Dont stop
Ooh fridays child cant stop now
Not for a moment, not for a minute
(fade to end)
