The call for a renewed sense of pride and responsibility among Hindus from "summary" of Why I Am a Hindu by Shashi Tharoor
Hindus worldwide must heed the call for a renewed sense of pride and responsibility. It is a call to embrace the rich cultural heritage and traditions that have been passed down through generations. Hindus have a long history of resilience and adaptability, surviving centuries of foreign invasions and colonial rule. The call for pride and responsibility is a reminder that Hindus must take ownership of their identity and beliefs. It is a call to reject the distortions and misrepresentations that have been perpetuated by outside forces. Hindus must reclaim their narrative and assert their place in the world as a vibrant and diverse community. Pride in Hinduism does not mean blind adherence to outdated customs or beliefs. It means recognizing the values of tolerance, inclusivity, and respect that are at the core of the religion. Hindus must strive to embody these values in their daily lives and interactions with others. Responsibility, on the other hand, demands that Hindus take an active role in shaping the future of their community. It requires a commitment to social justice, environmental stewardship, and the well-being of all living beings. Hindus must be agents of positive change in the world, using their values and principles to guide their actions.- Hindus can forge a path towards a more inclusive and harmonious society. It is a call to action, a call to stand up for what is right and just. Hindus must lead by example, showing the world the true essence of their faith and the values it embodies. By doing so, they can create a more compassionate and just world for future generations.
