Congress links Modi to death again, calls him Yamraj now


How Congress spokesperson can call Shri. Narendra Modi as the god of the death ? Has he forgot that after killing of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, Congress workers wreaked havoc across the country and killed many brahmins and looted their belongings ? Why don't Mr. Alvi utter a word about brutal killings of thousands of Sikhs after the assassination of Indira Gandhi in 1984 ? - Editor
New Delhi : Raking up the 2002 post-Godhra riots issue, Congress on Friday appeared to compare Gujarat chief minister Narendra Modi with 'Yamraj', the lord of death in Hindu mythology.
The party also said it feared the "consequences" if Modi was to become Prime Minister, a day after the chief minister made the strongest-ever indication of his prime ministerial ambitions.
"Had he intended to indicate Narendra Modi he would not have referred to somebody riding a horse but somebody riding a buffalo (Yama's vehicle) ... Rahulji has talked about somebody coming on a horse, he must be referring to a messiah," AICC spokesman Rashid Alvi told reporters.
He was replying to a question whether Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi was referring to Modi when he said in his CII speech on Thursday that no one person can come charging on horseback and solve all the country's problems.
The invoking of 'Yamraj' barb brings back the memories of " merchant of death" used by Congress president Sonia Gandhi in the campaign during Gujarat assembly elections in 2007, which was believed to have boomeranged on the party. In subsequent elections, the party avoided references to the riots.
Ridiculing Modi's comments on Thursday about "repaying the debt" to nation, seen as his first-ever admission of his prime ministerial ambitions, Alvi said "We are frightened if he wants to pay back the debt to Delhi (nation) in the same manner in which he has paid the debt to the soil of Gujarat." 
(First Alvi should tell this nation what Congress has done to pay the debt to the Nation ? Is it scams, widespread corruption, inflation, spread of terrorism and misgovernance in each and every field ? - Editor)
On Thursday Modi had said it was the duty of every child to repay the debt he owes to "Mother India".
Striking a similar note, information and broadcasting minister Manish Tewari said, he often worried about Modi's statements and hoped he does not not do in the rest of India what "he did" in Gujarat in 2002.
"As someone who believes in the idea of India, who believes in the plurality of Indian ethos, who is committed to the founding values of the Indian Constitution, I often worry about the statements of the Gujarat chief minister."
"I hope he doesn't want to do in the rest of India what he did in Gujarat in 2002."
On questions related to the United States' stance of not granting a visa to Modi, Tewari said he wondered why there was an obsession related to a foreign visa.
Mocking at Modi's remarks on repaying debt, Alvi said that he can do it while working in a village also.
He went on to quote a Ghalib couplet 'haazaron khawhishen aisi, ke har khwahish pe dum nikle' (There are thousands of wishes and in pursuit of each, life could be consumed).
"If somebody thinks the debt of the nation can be paid by only coming to Delhi, this is that person's thinking. People have various desires," he added.

The concept of 33 koti devata in Hinduism!

The concept of 33 koti devata in Hinduism: The Vedas refer to not 33 crore Devatas but 33 types (Koti in Sanskrit) of Devatas. They are explained in Shatpath Brahman and many other scriptures very clearly. "Yasya Trayastrinshad Devaa Ange Sarve Samaahitaa, Skamma Tam Bruhi Katamah Swideva Sah”. ~(Atharva Veda 10-7-13) Which means: with God’s influence, these thirty-three (supporting devta) sustain the world. In Brhadaranyaka Upanishad while discussing Brahman, Yajnavalkya is asked how many gods are there. He says that there are three hundred and three and three thousand and three gods. When the question is repeated? He says, thirty three. When the question is again repeated he says, six. Finally, after several repetitions he says ONE. (Chapter I, hymn 9, verse 1) The number 33 comes from the number of Vedic gods explained by Yajnavalkya in Brhadaranyaka Upanishad – the eight Vasus, the eleven Rudras, the twelve Adityas, Indra and Prajapati. (Chapter I, hymn 9, verse 2...
