भारत के भूले बिसरे इतिहास से ली गईं छोटी-छोटी कहानियों का ये संग्रह रीढ़ की हड्डी में कंपकपी उत्पन्न कर देगा।
एक भारतीय बच्चा स्कूली इतिहास की किताबों में खतरनाक रूप से अजीब चीजें पढता है। एक झूठा प्रपंच उसको कंठस्थ करवाया जाता है कि हिन्दुओं पर इस्लामिक हमलावरों ने १००० साल तक राज किया।
इस्लामिक हमलावरों की चढ़ाई को उनके शासन का नाम दिया जाता है और उनकी तानाशाही शासन पद्धति को हिन्दू मुस्लिम मिश्रित संस्कृति का उदाहरण कहकर महिमा मंडित किया जाता है। आक्रमणकारियों को हमारा तारणहार बताया जाता है जबकि धरती के वो सपूत जो आज़ादी पाने के लिए उन आक्रमणकारियों से लड़े, उनको इतिहास की पुस्तकों ने बिलकुल ही नकार दिया है।
This book is a collection of the brave history of our ancestors that will make you both proud and teary-eyed. I am proud that I was aware of almost every brave ancestor mentioned here, except for two or three. It is shameful that these pages of our history have been torn out, as if they never existed. What’s even more shameful is that our generation will either never read about them, or just shrug them off like any other story. We are so divided now — one section will never believe this history and will mock those who do, while another section will believe, feel proud and emotional, but then a sudden wave of helplessness will take over. Even today, when the same actions once committed by invaders are being repeated before our very eyes, we still choose to ignore them or give them the benefit of doubt. If we cannot recognize even what is happening in front of us, we are truly doomed. Our ancestors would never have imagined that the very people they sacrificed for would become so blind, detached from their nation, their faith, their history, living only for their own gains, and blind to the threats around them — so lost.
This book is simple to read, yet it shakes you from within. I will surely explore more works by the author.
This book is written by a hindu fanatic who has listened to their mother and grandmother telling tales when they were a child. They do not have any basis in fact but are legends passed down by word of mouth. As a person who is neither hindu nor muslim i still cannot stomach this writing and have stopped reading after 3 stories
बकलोली भरी पुस्तक है, इसे ना ही पढ़ा जाए तो अच्छा है। इस स्तर की बकलोली तो आपको मनोहर कहानियां पढ़ते हुए भी नहीं मिलेंगी। लेखन को शर्मसार करे इतना घटिया लेखन है इस पुस्तक का।
