    Per Alberuni India, Sufism is based on Vedantic philosophy. “There was a book by one we on wisdom or philosophy. According to Middle-In-diaphonetics this name is = vedavyâsa. 1 A man of this name, also called Vyasa or Bâdarâyana, is, according to the literary tradition of India, the originator of the Vedânta school of philosophy, and this will remind the reader that in the Arabian Sufism the Indian Vedânta philosophy reappears.

    The india side will never attack Pakistan in its offensive line..
    It will only defend itself in future if attacked by Pakistan..
    Record wise, its remained defensive, as all attack post partition started by Pakistan
    Also, it was muslim communalism which developed earlier with shah waliullah dehlavi in 18 th century..
    Also, it was propagated by deobandi movement and aligarh movement post 1857 revolt..
    Hjndu communalism developed as defensive move, in 1920, by savarkar and like company..
    Also, this hindu communalism is much of brahminism revivalist...
    So, hindus or indians in general are not militant.. but Pakistan people in general are radical and weaponised as militant jn this region

    India had some of the greatest Universities where thousands of students came from all over the world. If India was not a great place to come to learn and syudu, then how come so many foreigners came to India. Universities like Nalanda, and Taxila are just 2 names of places of learning. Think about that.

    I think alberuni stayed in north India and learn all these from north Indians,but in our part the girl after death of husband can marry the brother of her husband and no self demolition by burning, and in our part all peoples including Brahmins have to give tax,do business and do under go for war, it's true that the education only limited to Brahmins and kings but rules are equal for all, Brahmins are lesser than ruling class in our area

    I agree with this guys. But you cannot say that we weren't advance.
    Nalanda university is a perfect example that we had intellectuals.
    Problem with these so called historians is that most of their report are based on someone experience of a particular place.
    Example:- If I come to Pakistan and visit Karachi and someone steal my phone. I would write in my journal that people of Pakistan were thief, streets were dirty and people were unhygienic. I judged a whole country based on a city, town or a village. But there are Islamabad and norther areas too.
    Now imagine I have wrote it 2000 years ago and a historian today look at archives and he stumble over my journals and make a picture of Pakistan as a dirty and unhygienic place. But he can't measure it with anything else because there is none. So historians are like Economist. There information are ill informed and don't present a whole story.
    He said Hindus were lack innovation then how come hindu - arabic numerals came into existence.
    How come people of this land able to conquer other territories if they were not good. How come we created yoga and Ayurveda?
    Just because mughals destroyed everything and build their buildings and we have written document about them doesn't mean our history of ashoka and others aren't there.
    Mohan judaro and harapa are great example.

    Brilliant unbiased and objective history lesson. It can only come from a true scholar such as Dr Hoodbhoy or Mr Namit Arora, and the reason is they have scientific background with well developed mindset of rationalising and analysis of complex issues. It cannot be accepted from humanities or law students.

    Muslim invasion is very small portion of thousands years old Indian civilization. No doubt there are shortcomings. Pakistan's past is also part of Indian civilization. After few more decades they will also stop connecting themselves from Arab or middle East region. Yes there is migration factor but buy in large majority of people belong to Indian origin. Some day they will realise this fact. They may be adopted other religions but for the sake of future and past historical reason they will learn to live peacefully along with India.

    As an Indian I accept that we were not a perfect society. There were many flaws. That is y we were invaded n ruled by foreign invaders. We as Indians shud fix those flaws n improve our society by helping the underprivileged reach middle class via education, business etc.
    There r people with ill intentions who would like to divide us in name of caste, class, region, religion. Many will still fall for this like at the time of creation of Pakistan, we can’t help that. Indians shud know that we have 1000s of years of common ancestry n hence we r more same with slight differences of region, religion. We shud love n help each other, this will make lives of all Indians better which in-turn will make our country strong.
