THE HOLOCAUST OF THE ARYANS

THE HOLOCAUST OF THE ARYANS
In the early 1950s the Dravida movement intensified. The DK and  DMK cadre indulged in harassing the Brahmins in innumerable ways. OK, they blacked out “Brahmin’s” from the shop boards of  hotels. But they also used to chop  away  the brahminical style of hair tufts behind the heads of  their menfolk but also pass lewd comments on the women folk. In the name of rationalism, the Gods were mocked  at . On the whole, it was a great stress to be a Brahmin and continue to live in the state of Madras. Tamil is a beautiful and powerful language and  can be fiery with its alliterations and rhymes. “Ariyalur Azhakesare Neengal Andadhu poradha. Makkal Manadhu Poradha?” used to be painted on the black roads with white paint in a huge way- each alphabet about three feet size and effectively ensured the defeat of the Congress for the sin of Ariyalur Rail accident. The Deepawali Special issue of the magazines is a unique feature of Tamilnadu. Kaunanidhi(Kalaignar Dr) started his public life as a script writer and naturally salacious matters attract his followers and if it was offensive to the Brahmins , so much the better.. The” Murasoli”  the mouth piece of  DMK , when he was its editor had in its Deepawali  issue mocked at the mythological excesses of the Hindu Gods in almost the manner of   ToonPorn. A few pages of a latter time i.e 1957  I am attaching with this blog. There was no reaction violent or other-wise to such trespasses against them  from the Brahmin community who are powerless and docile in nature.
There was a time when almost every ministry in the centre and in many states the top civil servant was an Ayyar or Ayyangar. As a result of the onslaught on them, the Brahmins, diversified and have not perished as it happens in most societies. Of course the brilliance of the yonder generation has dimmed, when their beliefs and culture have been attacked but this is part of the great churning process  in every society for one reason or the other. You do not find the children from the Tamils topping  All India results anymore—it is a Gupta or Agarwal these days But Pichai of Google and many other people are examples of the Brahmin parents diversifying to sectors other than Civil Services.Since i967, one or the other of the Dravidian parties is in power in the State after the very violent anti Hindi agitation of 1965- an agitation supposedly to save Mother Tamil, carried out by mostly illiterate urchins.  Language was only an excuse, Political power and the wealth one may acquire if one is not averse to  looting public money or amassing bribe money or accumulating  it by crooked ventures was the real  goal. Gone are the days of Kamaraj and his team. His home minister became a street dweller once the ministry resigned and  Kamaraj had to give a room for his living in  a congress office(BJP also had a president who lived in the office till he breathed his last. ).The contra distinction of honesty of those days can be seen in the capital between the dilapidated state of Satyamurthy Bhawan on  Mandir Marg and  Admiral Nanda’s opulent  home on Lodi Road. Gen Krishna  Rao used to say that he has seen an honest politician in only one—Manik Sarcar. The usual belief in Tamil honesty is a myth nowadays given the stories of a “king” or of  “another and his son” or of others and their tv channels. Nalli’s and G R Thangamaligais are the time pass haunts of the  non- Brahmins now
In the matter of faiths when coercive measures are adopted the results in the long run are always the opposite For evangelical ends, Spanish Inquisition was adopted by the early settlers from Europe in Latin America. The result- maximum concentration of Marxist beliefs in many countries of that continent .Similarly, the war against religion and superstition launched by the so-called social reformer Periyar  should have perished when he married some one young enough be his grand- daughter .However, this was prolonged for some more time by script writers in  Murosoli for their own salacious ends in order not to admit their own lust. Hence  the illustrations for some alleged deviant conducts of the deities so as to berate the Aryans. But, after five decades of being in power. It is the non- Brahmins who adorn tilak etc prominently on their foreheads and perform one pooja after the other. AVIN milk packets are regularly bought and offered to give bath to stone or brass idols of deities, when so many of the children are under nourished,. In-fact,  hutment dwellers who are stingy in buying milk for their children, make a bee-line to the temples to offer pooja.
