About this listen
हिंदुत्व का विचार’, ‘भारत की प्राचीनतमा’, ‘हमारी राष्ट्रीयता’, ‘समाज का आचरण’, ‘स्त्री सशक्तीकरण’, ‘विकास की अवधारणा’, ‘अहिंसा का सिद्धांत’, ‘बाबा साहेब आंबेडकर’ और ‘भारत का भवितव्य’ जैसे विचारों को परिष्कृत करेगी।
राष्ट्रीय स्वयंसेवक संघ एक ऐसा सांस्कृतिक संगठन है, जिसके लाखों समर्पित स्वयंसेवक राष्ट्र-निर्माण में लगे हैं और भारत को परम वैभव संपन्न बनाने के लिए कृतसंकल्पित हैं। परम पूज्य सरसंघचालक डॉ. केशव बलिराम हेडगेवार ने सन् 1925 की विजयादशमी को इसी उद्देश्य से संघ की स्थापना की। समर्पित भाव से व्यक्ति-निर्माण के महती कार्य को लक्षित कर संघ के स्वयंसेवक देश-समाज के प्रायः सभी क्षेत्रों—सेवा, विद्या, चिकित्सा, छात्र, मजदूर, राजनीति—में ‘राष्ट्र सर्वोपरि’ के मूलमंत्र को जीवन का ध्येय मानकर प्राणपण से जुटे हैं। संघ दुनिया में अपनी तरह का अकेला संगठन है। पिछले कुछ समय में राष्ट्रीय स्वयंसेवक संघ को निकट से जानने और गहराई से समझने की जिज्ञासा बढ़ी है। संघ के छठे और वर्तमान सरसंघचालक डॉ. मोहनराव भागवत के विचारों पर आधारित यह पुस्तक इस दिशा में दीपशिखा का काम करेगी।
यह पुस्तक अलग-अलग अवसरों पर दिए उनके व्याख्यानों का संग्रह है। ‘हिंदुत्व का विचार’, ‘भारत की प्राचीनतमा’, ‘हमारी राष्ट्रीयता’, ‘समाज का आचरण’, ‘स्त्री सशक्तीकरण’, ‘विकास की अवधारणा’, ‘अहिंसा का सिद्धांत’, ‘बाबा साहेब आंबेडकर’ और ‘भारत का भवितव्य’ जैसे विषयों पर दिए गए उनके व्याख्यान संघ को समझना आसान बना देते हैं। वैसे अपने व्याख्यानों में मोहनराव भागवत बार-बार कहते हैं कि ‘संघ को समझना हो तो संघ में आइए’। यह पुस्तक पाठक के विचारों को परिष्कृत करेगी और समाज में ऐसे राष्ट्रभाव जाग्रत् करेगी, जिससे ‘यशस्वी भारत’ का लक्ष्य सिद्ध होगा।

Savarkar’s vision of Hindutva extends beyond religion; he defines it as a cultural and civilizational identity rooted in the land of Bharat. He argues that Hindus are those who consider India both their Pitrubhumi (fatherland) and Punyabhumi (holy land). His interpretation of nationalism is deeply intertwined with history, geography, and shared cultural ethos.
This book is a must-read for those interested in the modern history of India and its political evolution. Savarkar’s analysis of historical events and his predictions about the future of India resonate strongly with contemporary developments. His foresight in anticipating socio-political challenges makes the book even more relevant today. Hindutva is a crucial read to understand the ideological debates shaping India’s past, present, and future.
If you are looking for a thought-provoking read that delves into the roots of Hindu nationalism and its implications, this book is highly recommended.

The author refers to the Rig Vedic era but cleverly chooses to ignore the Upanishads, which are essentially the distillation of Hindu philosophy and thought. This omission highlights his lack of understanding. Anyone familiar with the Upanishads would never stoop to the cheap tactic of belittling Buddhism and its principles, as he does in Chapter 3. This chapter also reveals his flawed grasp of Indian history, where he exaggerates a minor perspective and underplays the deep-rooted inequalities and exploitation under Brahminical dominance, which actually led to the rise of Buddhism, Jainism, and the Ajivika sect.
Many other examples could be provided, but I'll stop here. The unfortunate reality today is that people have stopped reading and listening. I would request and recommend that you read—read as much as you can—and you will find all the answers to the questions raised by this author and echoed by today’s politicians.
I deeply love this country, but I fear that the worm of communalism and polarization might forever change the beautiful India I was born into—a place where I breathed freely and made friends without worrying about caste, gender, or religion. My greatest fear today is whether my children will have the same experience, or whether this politics of hatred will transform the country to the point where I may have to constantly prove my identity as an Indian, simply because I belong to a particular caste, gender, or religion.
Despite these fears, deep down I still hold onto hope. Hope that the India I was born in still exists, and that our natural love and compassion will overcome this surge of extremism and the binary way of viewing things.
This is my view; yours might be different or similar. In any case, please keep reading—not just one point of view, but the opposite as well (the only condition is that it should be factually and logically correct). This will broaden your perspective, open your mind, and make it calm enough to observe, analyze, and reflect not just objectively but subjectively as well.
P.S: I respect the fact that he spent time in Cellular Jail for the Indian cause and thus I felt that even though I disagree with him, I still should give his thoughts a read. Maybe this was the right step because now I'm perfectly clear about his vision and why I was right that it's actually dangerous (at least to my understanding) to the unity and integrity of India.
P.S: You have every right to disagree with me but that was my honest review. Though I made sure that my words are chosen carefully, I still apologize if unknowingly any of my above sentence caused any kind of inconvenience or hurt which was not my intention and I deeply regret that (if any)!
