In 1920s, Mohanbhai started doling out toxic wastes called non-violence and khadi. It not only delayed independence, but eventually resulted in slaughter of Hindus in Pakistan. In Jul-Aug-1947, some 10 lakh Hindus were killed, some 20 lakh Hindus got abducted and some 4 crore had to flee. The damage would have been much less if Hindus had not consumed these toxic wastes of non-violence and khadi. How did Mohanbhai succeeded in spreading these two toxic wastes? Mohanbhai indirectly got British money to sponsor non-violence and khadi. But BIGGER FACTOR that helped the spread was silence of non-80G-activists ( non-80G means activists who dont take/give tax exemptiojs .)who knew . I want to explain why I "blame" the activists who KNEW that khadi etc are waste, but they remained silent because they feared that their "image" will be ruined if they were to speak against Mohanbhai. And how is this gyaan relevant today? Today, many activists KNOW that Anna is throwing toxic wastes called MNC-pal (named as Janlokpal), Right to Reject and signature based Right to Recall to sabotage the efforts to bring "appearance based Right to Recall procedures", black money issues etc. Yet, the activists are choosing silence because they fear that "Anna ke khilaaf bolunga to meri image kharaab ho jayegi.". i.e. they fear that "if I speak against Anna and his MNC-pal, then my image will get ruined") . IMO, they should learn from the fact that silence of activists in 1930s caused a slaughter in 1947 and silence today can do same damage in years to come.
1. The toxic wastes of non-violence and khadi, and how it increased slaughters
Mohanbhai proposed two dogme in 1920s --- non-violence and khadi. The dogma of non-violence proclaimed that India can get freedom by slogan shouting, rallying, charkha spinning, staying hungry etc also proclaimed that guns, bullets, swords etc were useless. The dogma of khaadi was even more toxic. The dogma of Khaadi said that activists should spend ALL their time in spinning charkha, making leather sandals, visiting villages, singing bhajan and other time pass activities and spend zero time in understanding science and art of improving governments, police, courts etc. Many non-80G-activists believed that non-80G-activists should spend time in understanding importance of weapons in world and importance of courts and administrative structures so that country can make better weapons and get better administration. But dogma of Khadi opposed this view. As per the domga of Khaadi and its proponent Mohanbhai, not even a minute should be spent in informing activists about importance of weapons and administrative structures, and activists must be kept busy in charkha-spinning, slogan shouting, visiting villages etc.
Due to dogme of Non-violence and Khaadi, Hindus remained weaponless and did not even train themselves psychologically on what to do in war or civil-war like scenario. So when partition riot started, Hindus had no guns, no swords, not even nail cutters. They were not even trained to use them or mentally prepared to understand the importance. So during partition riots, some 10 lakh Hindus were buried alive, burnt alive, skinned alive or stabbed. Some 20 lakh to 40 lakh Hindu women were raped and then tortured or forced to marry or sold to brothels. Some 1 crore men and women were forced to convert and some 4 crore had to flee with just clothes on, leaving all their wealth behind. I am not claiming that these events would NOT have happened had if India had not followed Mohanbhai's ways. But if Hindus had not consumed these toxic wastes of non-violence and khadi, casualties would have been much much less.
By Dec-1947 whole country had lost faith in Mohanbhai to the extent that common men living in Karol Bag area broke furniture in house where Mohanbhai was living, and forced Mohanbhai to leave that area. Mohanbhai could not find any public place in Delhi to live and so Mohanbhai had to take refuge inside Birla Mandir. Had Godse not killed Mohanbhai, Gandhism would have been dead for good. By 1947, useless of Non-violence and Khaadi was accepted, but irreversible damage was already done.
2. Did Mohanbhai believed that Non-violence and Khaadi can work?
Now was Mohanbhai a person with wrong belief or a deliberate willful liar? Well, please google on "Trusteeship of Private Property Gandhi". When you read this theory, you will be convinced that only a hard core liar, bigger liar than any of living politician, can proclaim such headless theory. The "Trusteeship of Private Property " proves that Mohanbhai was very much capable of deciding the gullible. But lets talk about non-violence. If Mohanbhai was a true believer in non-violence and hunger-strike, why the hell didnt he go to Lahore or Karanchi or Islamabad and started a hunger strike to protect slaughters and rapes? Because deep down, Mohanbhai knew that if he were to so that Lahore or Karanchi or Islamabad, he would get chopped alive. IOW, he himself very well knew that these techniques of hunger strike, non-violence etc are basically useless. So he was not some soul with wrong belief, Mohanbhai was a deliberate liar who lied skillfully.
Why did Mohanbhai chose to spread the lies of Non-violence and Khaadi? Because he saw that if he supports these myth, then British would spend a lot of money paying media to project him, and British would also ask Tata, Birla, Bajaj, Sarabhai etc to pay Mohanbhai to run his franchise (Ashrams). He knew that Non-violence and Khaadi are waste. But he didnt care.
3. What made toxic wastes of non-violence and khadi so popular-I
How did the utterly illogical dogme non-violence and khadi became so dominant? One was paid-news. British found Mohanbhai's non-violence and khadi very useful. The non-80G-activists, after consuming sermons on non-violence and khaadi will no longer kill British or their police constables. The non-80G-activists will spend all time in bhajan-singing and charkha-spinning and know nothing about law, administration etc and thus will never be able to create alternatives. So the British paid Times of India to make Mohanbhai famous and paid other Indian newspapers via Tata, Birla, Bajaj, Sarabhai, etc to further project Mohanbhai. So toxic wastes of non-violence and khadi started spreading.
But despite all media propaganda, most non-80G-activists KNEW that Mohanbhai's non-violence and khadi are bunkum. Sure? Didnt activists believe in non-violence and khaadi? NO. How can I say so? Pls read further.
4. Non-80G-activists never believed in the toxic wastes of non-violence and khadi
First, I will explain a difference between a common citizen and a non-80G-activist. At core, they are same --- the only difference is that non-80G-activist has decided to spend more time in doing activities and reading articles/books which he thinks will improve the nation. The allocation of time is the first sacrifice, as assuming one lives 75 years, one has only 70 * 365 * 8 hours/day = only about 200,000 hours of productive time in his life. Every hour allocated to one activity is one hour less to other activities. If a person allocates one hour to read or do something that he thinks will benefit nation, he may be right or wrong, but now he has one hour less for entertainment or his social gains or economic gains. Only a person with some commitment would spend one hour in such activity.
Now because non-80G-activist spends some time in reading, discussing and working on issues related with nation etc. , they have better understanding of real-politik and are often immune to tactics paid mediamen. So when Mohanbhai started telling that guns are useless, charkha spinning can bring freedom, there was no need to learn law and administration etc etc, almost all non-80G-activists disagreed with him.
No matter what textbooks claims, most Congress workers opposed Mohanbhai. And here is a proof :- Subhashji won 1939 Congress election and Mohanbhai's chamacha Pattabhi lost , because Congress workers had zero faith in Mohanbhai's charakha and bhajans.If the activists on Congress had any faith in Mohanbhai and his non-violence and khadi, Subhashji would have lost big time. But Subhashji got over 65% of votes, not just in Bengal, but all across India, and even in Gujarat where almost all "tall leader" supported Mohanbhai. Please note -- ALL leaders in Congress supported Mohanbhai and his chamcha Pattabhi, but yet, all activists in Congress voted against Mohanbhai and for Subhashji. Subhaji was openly opposing Non-violence and opposing Khaadi. His victory not only proves that grassroot workers were sick of Mohanbhai and his cabal, but also sick of Khaadi and Non-violence.
5. So how come non-violence and khadi become so popular-2
We all know paid-media was praising Mohanbhai and his pro-British dogme namely Non-violence and Khaadi benefited the British. I also proved that the activists had no faith in Mohanbhai's non-violence and khadi. Now the paid-media has reach, but citizens also listen to the non-80G-activists and if non-80G-activists explain valid points, people do accept. So why did citizens did nor reject non-violence and khaadi?
Because back then, very few activists spoke against Mohanbhai, non-violence and khadi.
This was the main reason why the myth of non-violence and khaadi prevailed. That most of those, who understood the non-violence and khaadi were useless, chose to remain silent. Why? Not because they were worried --- that if I speak against Khaadi, Non-Violence and Mohanbhai, then my image will worsen.
IOW, non-80G-activists cared for their image and so did not call Mohanbhai's bluff, and finally, some 10 lakh died, 20 lakh got raped, 1 crore had to convert and 4 crore had to flee. This is NOT to say that all this damage would have been zero. But it would have been lot lot less.
