Sita Ram Goel
“If the theologians of Christianity and Islam can be considered authoritative exponents of Monotheism, it means that God or the Supreme Power or whatever the name we give to the Ultimate Reality, remains outside the Cosmos, that is, becomes extra-cosmic after the act of Creation...

...Looked at in this manner, an inescapable implication of Monotheism is that the Cosmos is completely denuded of any inherent Divinity, and made very, very material. There is no divinity inherent in human beings, or animals, or in material things. Monotheism thus becomes a disguised form of Materialism.

What is worse, it leads to the lowest type of idolatry because it places God at the mercy of a historical person, hailed as the Prophet or the Son on whom the extra-cosmic deity must depend for communicating with his creatures. Songs and sermons in praise of a Jesus or a Muhammad soon surpass the hymns addressed to God Almighty.”
― Sita Ram Goel, The Story of Islamic Imperialism in India

Anand Ranganathan
“To me, the mark of civilisation is this unquenchable thirst of man to demand justice for his ancestors; to correct a historical wrong. For that exemplifies a continuity; an idea, a memory that can never be erased; that worth fighting for and preserving.”
― Anand Ranganathan, Hindus in Hindu Rashtra: Eighth-Class Citizens and Victims of State-Sanctioned Apartheid

“If Savarkar had any sweetheart, his country was the only sweetheart he had.”

“So strange is the influence of the study of English that if one simply intends to learn that language, or if a child learns by heart only the first two or three letters of its alphabet, he begins at once to look upon his elders as fools and despises his good and ancient religion. If the mere odour of English education has this effect, where is the wonder if any righteous person who fully tastes it should turn an Englishman from top to toe and an earnest votary of the bottle?”
― Damodar Hari Chapekar, MUSINGS FROM GALLOWS: AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF DAMODAR HARI CHAPEKAR

Ram Swarup
“A pure monotheistic God, unrelieved by polytheistic elements, tends to become lifeless and abstract. A purely monotheistic unity fails to represent the living unity of the Spirit and expresses merely the intellect’s love of the uniform and the general.
Similarly, purely polytheistic Gods without any principle of unity amongst them lose their inner coherence. They fall apart and serve no spiritual purpose.”
― Ram Swarup, The Word as Revelation: Names of Gods
