WHAT IS HINDUISM?
Devi – see Hitler as the world-saving Kalki avatar of the
Hindu god Vishnu.
Then again, not only did the Nazis lend political and
military support to Indian nationalist leaders and
movements in their struggles against English colonialism,
they also adopted one of the most ancient and sacred
Hindu religious symbols – the swastika (Sanskrit svastika,
meaning ‘well-being’) seeing it as representing the
supposedly invaders – white, Nordic and ‘Aryan’ – who
founded Indian Vedic civilisation. Hitler’s connection and
appeal to the soul of the German people appeared to lend
‘National Socialism’ the character of a Theocratic Socialism
- except that in its concrete and practical reality, Nazi
society was effectively a form of nationalistic and
imperialistic state capitalism that merely embellished itself
with a powerful religious aura whilst at the same time
eliminating all genuinely socialist elements from both its
party membership and political agenda. Hitler himself was
first and foremost a firm believer in racial biology and
technological science, and not ‘socialism’ or any religion,
Eastern or Western. And the ‘greatest’ public works of the
Hitler regime were not autobahns but concentration camps,
industrial militarisation boosting the big manufacturing
corporations – not to mention corporate built and manned
by imported slave labour.
