Religion means Giraffe

Although sectarian hatred is in-built in the classical classical structure of religion, in many countries people of different religions have lived together for a long time. They also helped each other in their religion, and sometimes even got into fights. But they never organised communal riots against each other. They have spent their days helping each other in their struggle for daily life by burning incense candles by depositing flower bell leaves for some invisible god while keeping the scriptures alive. The riot could not become universal and timeless in its practical form as it did not accept the theory of religion in such a way. If it could, the human species would be wiped off the face of the earth by this time. Although the reign of the mullah priest was established in the temple mosque, the Sufi Bauls kept the practice of religion alive among the common people in the village. In that practice, there was no religious distinction between the paddy of the field and the god of the sky. Sweat and tears are all gone. Turn over some of the gray pages of history. During the heyday of Islam, when he left Arabia, conquered the Middle Eastern deserts, converted one hundred percent of the people from Persia to Afghanistan and converted to Islam, and finally came to this land. He could not even convert the masses to Islam. How many people in this country have noticed this incident? How many people are looking for an explanation for this incident? The Rajput kings of northern India aided the sultans and the Mughal emperors in groups, becoming their generals. Otherwise, the Sultans and Mughals would not have been able to rule here for so long. But, where? They did not have to be Muslims! They even married their daughters or sisters to the Mughal emperors, forging kinship relations. And all this to keep their feudal lease and live happily. They also did not become Muslims for him, their daughters or sisters also went to the harem of the Muslim king and maintained their own religious practice. This means that the religious entity that suddenly seems to be in crisis or endangered today did not happen that day. The ruler did not think, the ruler did not have any fear. As a result, both sides accepted religion as a giraffe, but almost kept it out of the routine of life. Theory and action both! Unconsciously, they were able to keep the religious differences away from the believers, even though they adhered to the religious rituals in many aspects of life, in the journey of conscious life, in the intercourse, in the festivals, in the joys and sorrows. They did not fear that their religion would be endangered or in crisis. Today that situation has changed. Today, just as giraffes are endangered species, endangered species, and religion are endangered, so are endangered cultures. All the officials associated with the institutional religion are therefore approaching today - what happens! Bangladesh can also be caught in this context. After gaining independence from Pakistan through a bloody struggle, all the so-called "holy" organizations of Islam, such as "Al Badr", "Razakar", etc., did not hide their face in the pit just by gaining notoriety. The general public boycotted all organisations affiliated with Islam, including the Jamaat-e-Islami, for engaging in heinous activities on behalf of Pakistan, and fled the so-called "feeling" of religion in the face of strong language sentiment. They are now roaming around again with new names or names and making lists and killing rational bloggers. During the hardline religious administration of Pakistan, Arj Ali Matubbar was able to live his whole life despite many difficulties. And today in the independent democratic state of Bangladesh, starting from Raja Haider, fourteen bloggers in a row have been brutally murdered for talking about free thought at the hands of religious lunatics! Did you get the explanation? Understand, they are fighting on a strong pole? It is easy to see that they are not getting this adventure by their own strength, or in the name of religion or scripture. This massacre is not going to happen just for the sake of Gita or Qur'an. The scriptures are in front only as a symbolic banner. But they are getting courage and indulgence from where they were supposed to be prevented. He is getting from those from whom he has to deal with his opposition. That is, the state, government, administration, police, ruling party, etc. This unbridled terror in the name of religion, even in the case of "Honde Nahi Karwaye Jande Han" again!
