Namaste doston! Aaj hum baat karne wale hain ek bade controversial topic pe jo social media aur news channels pe chhaya hua hai. 4th May 2025 ko AajTak ne ek post share kiya jisme bataya gaya ki Jyotirmath ke Shankaracharya Swami Avimukteshwaranand Saraswati ne Congress leader Rahul Gandhi ko Hindu dharma se bahishkrit karne ka announcement kar diya hai. Yeh baat sunte hi political aur religious circles mein toofan aa gaya. Aakhir kyun hua yeh announcement? Rahul Gandhi ne aisa kya kiya jo Shankaracharya itne naraz ho gaye? Aur kya yeh decision sach mein valid hai? Chalo, iske details mein deep dive karte hain aur saari baat samajhte hain.Kya Hai Poora Mamla?Sabse pehle toh yeh samajhna zaroori hai ki Rahul Gandhi ne aisa kya kaha jo Shankaracharya ko gussa aa gaya. AajTak ke post ke according, baat December 2024 ki hai jab Rahul Gandhi, jo Lok Sabha mein Leader of Opposition hain, ne Parliament mein ek speech di thi. Is speech mein unhone Manusmriti ke baare mein kuch controversial remarks kiye. Manusmriti, jo ek ancient Hindu text hai, ko lekar Rahul Gandhi ne kaha tha ki ismein aisi baatein hain jo “rapists ko protect karti hain.” Yeh statement unhone ruling party ke members ki taraf point karte hue kaha tha, aur indirectly yeh bolne ki koshish ki thi ki Manusmriti jaise texts ke wajah se society mein galat practices ko support milta hai.Shankaracharya Avimukteshwaranand ke mutabiq, Rahul Gandhi ka yeh statement Hindu dharma ke against tha. Unhone kaha ki Manusmriti ek sacred text hai aur iska aise publicly insult karna Sanatan Dharma ko follow karne wale logon ke sentiments ko hurt karta hai. Shankaracharya ne yeh bhi bataya ki unhone Rahul Gandhi ko teen mahine pehle ek notice bheja tha, jismein unhone maanga tha ki Rahul apne statement pe clarification dein ya proof dein ki Manusmriti mein aisa kahan likha hai. Lekin Rahul Gandhi ne na toh koi jawab diya aur na hi koi apology maangi. Is wajah se, Badrinath ke Shankaracharya Ashram mein ek press conference ke dauraan, Swami Avimukteshwaranand ne yeh announce kar diya ki Rahul Gandhi ab Hindu dharma ka hissa nahi hain aur unhe officially bahishkrit kiya ja raha hai.Shankaracharya Ka Stand Aur Uska MatlabShankaracharya ka yeh decision kisi bhi angle se chhota nahi hai. Pehle toh yeh samajhna zaroori hai ki Shankaracharya kya hota hai. Shankaracharya ek bahut high position hai Hindu dharma mein, jo Adi Shankara ke dwara sthapit kiye gaye char mathon (monasteries) ke head hote hain. Yeh log Hindu dharma ke traditions aur teachings ke protectors maane jaate hain. Jyotirmath ke Shankaracharya Avimukteshwaranand bhi isi lineage ka hissa hain, aur unka ek bada influence hai Hindu community pe.Unhone press conference mein kaha, “Jab koi vyakti lagataar Hindu dharmagranthon ka apmaan karta hai aur spashtikaran dene se bachta hai, toh use Hindu dharma mein sthaan nahi diya ja sakta.” Unhone yeh bhi kaha ki ab Rahul Gandhi ka mandiron mein virodh hona chahiye aur panditon se appeal ki ki woh unki puja na karein kyunki ab woh khud ko Hindu kehne ke haqdaar nahi hain.Yeh statement bahut bada hai kyunki yeh pehli baar hai jab kisi religious authority ne itne bade level pe ek political leader ko aise publicly target kiya ho. Lekin sawaal yeh hai—kya koi vyakti kisi ko dharma se “expel” kar sakta hai? Hindu dharma koi organized religion nahi hai jismein koi official membership ho. Toh kya yeh decision sirf symbolic hai ya iska koi legal ya practical impact bhi hoga? Ispe thodi discussion baad mein karenge.Social Media Pe Kya Reaction Aaya?Jaisa ki expected tha, Shankaracharya ke is announcement ke baad social media pe reactions ka toofan aa gaya. AajTak ke post ke niche hi kuch logon ne apne thoughts share kiye. Ek user, Subhash Pal (@SubhashPal42996) ne likha, “Bas ab inka kaam itna hi reh gaya hai 😂 Aur kis aadhaar pe nikala ja raha hai, Manusmriti ka virodh karne pe. Kamaal hai!” Yeh comment dikhata hai ki kuch log is decision ko seriously nahi le rahe aur ise ek publicity stunt ya unnecessary drama maante hain.Ek aur user, Ravi (@Ravi___Gujar) ne kaha, “Kangana toh kal tak inko baap bana baithe the ab kya bolenge.” Yeh comment Congress supporters ke liye thoda taunt tha, jo shayad pehle Shankaracharya ke support mein the jab unhone Rahul Gandhi ke favor mein kuch kaha tha (ispe bhi baat karenge aage). Raj (@rabindra_mp) ne ek thoughtful point raise kiya, “Dharma koi vibhag ya sanstha nahi hai jisse kisi ko nikaasit kiya ja sake.” Yeh baat bilkul sahi hai—Hindu dharma mein aisa koi system nahi hai jahan koi “expel” ho sake. Ek aur user, Harish (@Harii_SkRo) ne direct attack kiya, “Yeh Hindu hai hi kahan ❓”Social media ke reactions se yeh clear hai ki log is issue pe do camps mein bant gaye hain. Ek taraf woh log hain jo Shankaracharya ke decision ko support karte hain aur maante hain ki Rahul Gandhi ne Hindu dharma ka apmaan kiya hai. Dusri taraf woh log hain jo isse ek political move maante hain aur kehte hain ki dharma ko aise political agenda ke liye use nahi karna chahiye.Background Mein Kya Hua Tha?Ab thoda background samajhte hain. Yeh pehli baar nahi hai jab Rahul Gandhi ke statements ne controversy create ki ho. July 2024 mein bhi Rahul Gandhi ke ek speech ne bawaal macha diya tha. Us waqt unhone Lok Sabha mein Motion of Thanks ke debate ke dauraan BJP leaders pe communal lines pe logon ko divide karne ka aarop lagaya tha. Is speech mein unhone kaha tha ki BJP wale violence ko promote karte hain religion ke naam pe. Prime Minister Narendra Modi ne ispe jawab diya tha ki Rahul Gandhi ne “pure Hindu community ko violent” kaha hai, jo ek bada accusation tha.Interestingly, us waqt yahi Shankaracharya Avimukteshwaranand Rahul Gandhi ke support mein aaye the. Unhone kaha tha ki Rahul Gandhi ke speech mein aisa kuch nahi tha jo Hindu dharma ke against ho. Unhone yeh bhi kaha tha ki Rahul ke statement ka ek part ko utha kar galat tareeke se present kiya gaya, aur jo log aisa kar rahe hain unhe saza milni chahiye. Priyanka Gandhi ne bhi apne bhai ka support kiya tha aur kaha tha, “My brother (Rahul) can never speak against Hindus.”Toh yeh twist hai story mein—ek taraf Shankaracharya July 2024 mein Rahul ke favor mein the, aur ab May 2025 mein unhone Rahul ko dharma se bahishkrit kar diya. Aakhir kya change ho gaya? Jawab hai—Manusmriti wala statement. December 2024 mein jab Rahul ne Manusmriti pe comment kiya, tab Shankaracharya ne shayad feel kiya ki yeh direct attack hai Hindu texts pe, jo unhone bardasht nahi kiya.Manusmriti Kya Hai Aur Kyun Hai Controversial?Thoda Manusmriti ke baare mein bhi baat kar lete hain kyunki yeh is controversy ka center point hai. Manusmriti, ya Manu Smriti, ek ancient Hindu text hai jo 200 BCE aur 200 CE ke beech likha gaya tha. Ismein dharma, samajik rules, aur governance ke baare mein guidelines hain. Lekin yeh text bahut controversial hai kyunki ismein caste system aur gender roles ke baare mein kuch aise rules hain jo aaj ke modern values ke against maane jaate hain. Jaise ki, ismein women aur lower castes ke liye strict rules hain, jo aaj ke samaj mein acceptable nahi hain.Rahul Gandhi ne jab Manusmriti pe comment kiya, toh shayad woh yeh point karna chahte the ki aise texts ke wajah se society mein inequality aur injustice badhta hai. Lekin Shankaracharya ke liye yeh ek sacred text hai, aur iska aise publicly criticize karna unhe acceptable nahi laga. Yeh clash of perspectives hai—ek taraf modern thinking jo ancient texts ko question karta hai, aur dusri taraf traditional thinking jo in texts ko sacred maanta hai.Kya Yeh Decision Valid Hai?Ab sawaal yeh hai ki Shankaracharya ka yeh decision kitna valid hai. Technically, Hindu dharma mein aisa koi system nahi hai jahan koi vyakti kisi ko “expel” kar sake. Hinduism ek decentralized religion hai, jismein koi central authority nahi hai jo aise decisions le sake. Toh Shankaracharya ka yeh announcement zyada symbolic hai, practical nahi. Lekin symbolic hone ke bawajood iska asar bada ho sakta hai. Rahul Gandhi ek high-profile politician hain, aur agar temples ya religious communities unka boycott karna shuru kar dein, toh yeh unki political image pe impact daal sakta hai.Dusri baat yeh hai ki Shankaracharya ka yeh stand khud controversial hai. Kuch log kehte hain ki dharma ko political agenda ke liye use nahi karna chahiye. Rahul Gandhi ke critics yeh bhi bolte hain ki woh pehle bhi Hindu dharma ke against baatein karte rahe hain, toh unka yeh statement koi nayi baat nahi hai. Lekin Rahul ke supporters ka kehna hai ki woh sirf social justice ki baat kar rahe the, aur Manusmriti jaise texts ko question karna koi galat baat nahi hai.Political Implications Kya Hain?Politically, yeh controversy Congress aur BJP ke beech ek aur battleground ban sakti hai. Rahul Gandhi already BJP ke liye ek soft target hain, aur yeh incident unhe aur criticize karne ka mauka dega. BJP shayad yeh narrative push karegi ki Rahul Gandhi Hindu-vidrohi hain, jo Hindu voters ke beech unki image kharab kar sakta hai. Dusri taraf, Congress yeh bol sakti hai ki BJP religious sentiments ko use karke politics kar rahi hai.Yeh bhi dekhna interesting hoga ki Rahul Gandhi ispe kaise respond karte hain. Ab tak unhone ispe koi official statement nahi diya hai, lekin agar woh ispe openly bolte hain toh yeh controversy aur badi ho sakti hai. Congress ke supporters shayad yeh bhi bolenge ki Shankaracharya ka yeh decision politically motivated hai, aur iske peeche BJP ka haath ho sakta hai.Conclusion: Aage Kya Hoga?Toh doston, yeh thi Rahul Gandhi aur Shankaracharya ke beech ki yeh nayi controversy. Ek taraf Rahul Gandhi ka Manusmriti pe statement, aur dusri taraf Shankaracharya ka unhe Hindu dharma se bahishkrit karne ka announcement—yeh dono hi cheezein apne aap mein badi hain. Lekin isse zyada bada sawaal yeh hai ki kya dharma aur politics ko aise mix karna chahiye? Kya Shankaracharya ka yeh decision sahi hai, ya yeh ek overreaction hai? Aur kya Rahul Gandhi ko apne statements pe clarification dena chahiye tha?Mere khud ke thoughts yeh hain ki dharma ek personal cheez hai, aur ise political agenda ke liye use karna galat hai. Rahul Gandhi ka statement shayad thoda harsh tha, lekin unhone ek valid point raise kiya tha jo social justice se connected hai. Lekin Shankaracharya ka perspective bhi samajhna zaroori hai—unke liye Manusmriti ek sacred text hai, aur uska aise insult hona unhe hurt kar sakta hai.Aapka kya khayal hai ispe? Kya Shankaracharya ka decision sahi hai ya galat? Kya Rahul Gandhi ko apology maangni chahiye?
