the ultimate question
If our dharma evolved many yuga ago, is considered everlasting and is accepted by scholars as the oldest living religion
if our dieties - Rama, Krishna and others, in their wordly apperances, were not borne as hindus
if the word hindu is not indigenous to Bharata and appears alien as khorshed or Jamshed or Farookh and you would feel un-comfortable giving these names to your children
if we have come to accept the name of our dharma as it was slapped on us by our conquerors
if it is a fact that we accept this alien name for our dharma because the rest of the world has been labeling our dharma as hindu,we accept it, we call ourselves hindu and do not wish to change
then do the following sloka have any true meaning for us
asato ma sadagamaya tamaso ma jyotirgamaya
