9. But to me, it is no part of true Hindu religion, as Mahatma Ji says “Hindu religion will perish, if this untouchability continues.” It derogates from the greatness of the Grand universal religion of the Hindus. But Mahatma Ji! this untouchability will not go by mere preaching, even, if you live up to 125. It is flourishing despite the rigorous preaching of Swami Dayanand Ji, the sweet and highly elevating spiritual preachings of the Ten Gurus of the Sikhs, Bhagat Kabir and a host of other reformers, of the past. It is keeping the country in slavery; will continue to keep it so, unless abolished by the rule of Law as “Sati” was abolished. The persistent demand for Pakistan is the call from Heaven on “Bharat Mata” to remove this demon, this false religion from the land, otherwise the fair Goddess of freedom will not land on this land, made unholy by the presence of this untouchability.
