A revealing nugget from history shows how Karl Marx had ingested Christian Missionary propaganda about Hindu Dharma and wrote elaborate essays based on this propaganda.

IT IS NECESSARY TO STUDY THE THOUGHTS OF KARL MARX ABOUT THE INDIAN HISTORY, Indian people, culture and Hinduism. Because he established the school of thinking, that later came to be recognized as Marxism. Hence it is necessary to know his concepts about India and Hinduism to understand the psyche and writings of Indian Marxists. Karl Marx was an extraordinary scholar, but his knowledge had limits and was not free from serious prejudices.

Unfortunately for us, it was Marxist scholars who generally undertook or claimed to undertake a detailed study of Karl Marx, Marxism and Marx’s views about India in the context of social science studies.

Whatever the reason, those who wrote in detail about Marxist thought were those very people who a priori, sympathised with his thought one way or the other If there were Indian scholars who seriously, continuously and with an open mind, had studied the writings of Marx, Engels and Lenin they did not do a good job of it. This has been a major drawback in the current Indian scholarship. The result was that Indian students, teachers and the common readers did not have adequate information and critical analyses about what Marx thought of India and Indian civilization.

The reason is obvious. The spirit of political activism to bring about revolution is integrated in the Marxist viewpoint. Therefore, to influence present politics is an inalienable part of any Marxist scholarship or analysis. In the words of Marx, ‘instead of explaining, changing the world’ is inseparable from Marxist discourse. Hence every Marxist, consciously or otherwise, ensures that whatever he writes or says has a calculated influence that favours the Marxist political movement.

Whether the Marxist writer is a communist propagandist, a university professor or a journalist, he is not free from this propensity to influence people politically. There may be differences in degree but the attitude is uniform and consistent. The same attitude prompts innumerable Marxist professors to engage in political activism on different issues. Even those Marxist writers and professors who are not active in political movements cannot keep their writing free from political propaganda.

What is the significance of this characteristic? It is this: Marxist writers and professors generally fail in providing complete information and all-round perspective on any given subject. Their political sympathies make them look at any and every subject with a view to promote ‘progressive’ politics. The most interesting example of this can be seen in the attempt by the Indian Marxists either to desist from presenting Marx’s views on India or to rehash and present it in a round about way.

Our Marxists have done this deliberately so that the common Indian readers might not instinctively form a negative opinion about Marx’s views. In other words, to make our people sympathetic to Marxism, Indian Marxists tried to conceal Marx’s views on India and presented them in incomplete or in a totally incorrect frame.

For example, no Indian Marxist writer or historian will include in his book the fact that Karl Marx intensely hated Hindu Dharma, philosophy and traditions. He did it out of total ignorance but the fact remains that his hatred was real. This is not connected with the avowed atheism of Marx. The issue is that in Marx’s opinion, Hinduism was so degenerate and hateful that he criticized the English rulers for not giving the Christian missionaries a freer hand in their work of converting Hindus and destroying Hinduism. This is how Karl Marx scolds the British Government:

"did they [the British], who combated the French revolution under the pretext of defending “our holy religion”, not forbid at the same time, Christianity to be propagated in India, and did they not, in order to make money out of the pilgrims streaming to the temples in Orissa and Bengal, take up the trade in the murder and prostitution perpetrated in the temple of Juggernaut?"

This is the opinion of that great Karl Marx! He not only wanted a massive expansion of Christianity in India but also believed that the famous Jagannath temple was mainly a centre of ‘murder and prostitution.’

This is not the only example, which proves how strange, and foolish were Marx’s observations about Hinduism. There are many comments in his writings about India which support the fact that he did not have any knowledge about Hindu philosophy, Hindu classics, customs and traditions. It is worth considering that if Marx had no knowledge about Indian philosophy and tradition how hollow is the claim that Karl Marx had propounded his philosophical theories after evaluating all philosophy, thought and history available at the time!

His comments on Hinduism instantly give rise to the suspicion that how many such baseless information he might have had regarding the past and present of the world, on the strength of which he formulated his ‘scientific’ theory of social progress. Evidently, Karl Marx’s knowledge about Hinduism was based on the derogatory propaganda of the Christian missionaries which they had been spreading for quite some time in Europe and America for getting generous political and financial support for their work to expand Christianity.

It is clear that Karl Marx’s aforementioned comment on the Jagannath temple is a total reproduction of the missionary propaganda.

The Moplah Files (Thread)  Dark chapter of India that happened 100 years before Kerala Story that was purposefully omitted from History books coz it bursts a fake narrative  All Mslm know abt it but no hindu knows but today every Hindu will know abt it.  Read full thread  1/30
Chapter 1

Kerala was major spice exporter since 3000 BC. Kerala used to be considered the heaven of spices.

Spices brought Arab in Kerala in 700 AC and with that Islam arrived in Kerala.

With that Arabs started to settle in Kerala and first mosque was built in 10th century.

Trade between Kerala n Arab kept goin n lot of Arab Mslm settled here. With arrival of Islamic rule, Islam further spread

At time of Tipu Sultan, lot of Hindu were forcefully converted 2 n with that Islam became prominent religion in Kerala.

Kerala Mslms are called Mappilas

Chapter 2

100 years ago there was no country called Turkey.

In place of Turkey there was a large mslm empire –Ottoman.

It was big state n was covering more than half of todays Europe n was ruled by a sunni religious leader who used to called Caliphate.
Chapter 2  100 years ago there was no country called Turkey.   In place of Turkey there was a large mslm empire –Ottoman.   It was big state n was covering more than half of todays Europe n was ruled by a sunni religious leader who used to called Caliphate.

In first world war (1914-1919) Ottoman fought from Germany side and German lost war and British side won the war.

After the war, British alliance captured lot of part of Ottoman and in 1920 treaty of sevres they stripped all powers of Caliphate and imposed sanctions.

Since Caliphate of Ottoman was supreme religious leader of Mslm so protest started all over world by Mslm n most prominent protest happened in India.

 Khilafat movement started by Mslm leaders of India against British

Their demands were to give back power to Caliphate of Ottoman

Movement didn’t get momentum for long time in India and cud not take on powerful British and here Gandhi ji made the biggest blunder

Till that time Gandhi had become the most prominent leader of India and Hindus had lot of faith in him.
In 1920 an alliance was made between Khilafat leaders n Congress.

Congress leader MK Gandhi and the Khilafat leaders promised to work and fight together for the causes of Khilafat.

Seeking to increase pressure on the colonial government

Khilafatists became a major part of the non-cooperation movement, Massive protests, strikes and acts of civil disobedience spread across India.

Hindus and Muslims joined forces in the campaign.

Hindu had blind faith in Gandhi so they joined movement of Muslim

Gandhi who was blind in secularism thought that It will enhance the Hindu Muslim unity and Muslim will also reciprocate same generosity to Hindus

But he was wrong

Very very wrong

A storm was coming n Gandhi was not aware of it

Chapter 3

Kerala birth place of Adi Shankracharya was major spiritual center of India, consist of ritualistic Hindus

Jenmi, consisting mainly of Namboothiri Brahmins and Nair, were natives of Kerala

They welcomed Muslims in their land, 1000 years ago, give them job, food, home
Chapter 3  Kerala birth place of Adi Shankracharya was major spiritual center of India, consist of ritualistic Hindus  Jenmi, consisting mainly of Namboothiri Brahmins and Nair, were natives of Kerala  They welcomed Muslims in their land, 1000 years ago, give them job, food, home

But they forget that for them they were always Kafir.

During Tipu Sultan invasion of Malabar, Mslm whom Jenmis gave shelter betrayed them n grabbed their land

Jenmi took refuge in neighboring states. Tenants and Nair men who could not escape were converted into Islam.

Tipu Sultan's Kingdom of Mysore, drove the Jenmi out of Malabar and gave their land to Mappilas

In 18th century East India company defeated Tipu Sultan.

British authorities, recognized the Janmi as absolute owner of Kerala land and gave them back their land.

Chapter 4

Muslims of Kerala used to consider British and local Hindus as their enemy.

Khilafat movement mobilized Muslims all over India, support of Gandhi gave them further ammo.

On August 1st   1921, Police attempted to arrest Vadakkevittil Muhammed
Chapter 4  Muslims of Kerala used to consider British and local Hindus as their enemy.   Khilafat movement mobilized Muslims all over India, support of Gandhi gave them further ammo.  On August 1st   1921, Police attempted to arrest Vadakkevittil Muhammed

He was secretary of Khilafat Committee of Ernad alleging that he had stolen the pistol of a Hindu.

A crowd of 2,000 Mappilas attacked on Police, Police opened fire on mob and it caused the clash between Police and Mappilas.

These clashes kept going for 2 months

From both side lot of people died.

When British police n troop retreated they diverted their focus to Hindus n gave the reason that Hindu gave information to British

And then started the worst massacre of 20th century.

Mob of thousands of Mappila Muslims attacked on native Nair Brahmins, burnt their home, killed men and raped their women.

Mappilas was having bad eye of Hindu women of their respective area from long time and this incident gave them opportunity.

A respectable Nayar Lady at Melatur was stripped naked by Mslm mob in the presence of her husband and brothers

They were made to stand close by with their hands tied behind.

When they shut their eyes in abhorrence they were compelled at the point of sword to open their eyes and witness the rape of their ladies.

Hindu women were paraded naked on streets of Kerala

Lot of women were gang raped in streets in front of public.

Around 1 lac native Hindu left Kerala.

Thousands of Hindu were chopped n their their heads were hung in the streets

On 25th Sep 1921, 38 Hindus were slaughtered n thrown in a well by Mslm mob.

Just imagine when there was no police, no army, no SM, no human right org, innocent Hindu who had left their weapons under influence of Ghandhi n blood hungry mob of Mslms

What atrocities they faced

Chapter 5

Moplah massacre was the result of immature decision of MK Gandhi.

Support of Khilafat movement by Congress established hydra of Islam in India that eventually resulted into Partition in 1947
Chapter 5  Moplah massacre was the result of immature decision of MK Gandhi.  Support of Khilafat movement by Congress established hydra of Islam in India that eventually resulted into Partition in 1947

Even lot of muslim also surprised by Gandhi’s decision who knew that Khilafat was purely religious movement

They asked Gandhi to not support it

But Gandhi was blind in philosophy of Hindu muslim unity.
"Any person could have said that this was too heavy a price for Hindu-Muslim unity

But Mr. Gandhi was so much obsessed by the necessity of establishing Hindu-Muslim unity that he didn’t think abt lives of Hindus"
– BR Ambedkar

"Hindus were visited by a dire fate at the hands of the Moplas.

Massacres, forcible conversions, desecration of temples, foul outrages upon women, such as ripping open pregnant women, pillage, arson and destruction......
This was not a Hindu-Moslem riot. This was just a Bartholomew.

The number of Hindus who were killed, wounded or converted, is not known. But the number must have been enormous. – Ambedkar

"Mr. Gandhi...can he not feel a little sympathy for thousands of women left with only rags, driven from home, for little children born of the flying mothers on roads in refuge camps ?.,.........

The misery is beyond description. Girl wives, pretty and sweet, with eyes half blind with weeping, distraught with terror; women who have seen their husbands hacked to pieces before their eye"
 - Anni Besant

Mappilas as the "brave God-fearing Moplahs who were fighting for what they consider as religion and in a manner which they consider as religious ". – Gandhi

Moplah riots were not Hindu Muslim riots – Congress

KB Hedgewar realized that Hindus r not safe in India under Congress n Gandhi vud throw all Hindus in well for secularism

So to protect Hindus in 1925

He made an Hindu organization n called it RSS

In 70s Kerala state govt declared Mappila Muslim by title of freedom fighters who slaughtered Hindus and real Moplah files were omitted permanently from history books
