PROPAGANDA RIGHT OR WRONG?

It is said  that when a lie is spoken repeatedly for a long time loudly it takes the conviction of truth in the heart of those who listen to it.
This is called propaganda. Those who make such propaganda are not interested in debating their conviction with others specially with those who have contrary views. They are happy in getting gullible and simple folks to their clan.

This was the sad story even in the Ramayana when mother Sita was sent  to  the forest. She had proved her purity not because she was asked  to but because she wanted to show her purity when she met Sri Rama the first time after the kidnapping by Ravana. This was done in the presence of the citizens of Lanka and the soldiers of Sugriva.

The citizens of Ayodhya, had heard the entire story from many people. The exploits of Sri Rama became their  enlightenment and entertainment. Affection for the life and soul of Sri Rama and his counterpart Sita increased manifold upon hearing these stories. Unfortunately the propaganda of doubting her purity was spreading, how and why no one knew.  The propoganda was completely false but it made a great impact on the citizens of Ayodhaya. They were questioning the integrity of Sita and Sri Rama, even though they loved and respected them .
The questioning became the talk of the town!!
This became the turning point of the Ramayana. Sri Rama was forced to take the decision of sending  mother Sita out of Ayodhaya to the ashrama of Valmiki muni. Unfortunately the citizens did not connect the danger dots which were clashing with each other, the love for Sita Rama ,their talks of her purity and the consequent ouster of Sita from Ayodhya.
Their freedom of speech took the very life away from Ayodhya.

Similarly in this world we do not realize the power of propaganda, which happens just because it is fun, or has an element of creating unnecessary controversy to create unrest or with the intention of breaking the civilization for the sake of creating a rift.

Hence the sin of propaganda has no alternative but to find and speak the truth as strongly as possible, as loudly as possible ,and as articulately as possible. 
Sri Valmiki maharshi taught both the sons of Sri Sita and Rama, the ultimate truth of the beautiful poetry of Sri Sita Rama’s life.This melted the hearts of the citizens and of Sri Rama who had never questioned the character of Sita. But it was  too late and Sita had ended her journey.

The interesting thing is that propaganda is disastrous, causes pain and never gives fulfillment.  Some elements in India are creating  propaganda to break this land, but look around the broken parts of Bharat like Pakistan and Bangladesh. Everyone is suffering immensely.  Division causes pain to everyone, because it is artificial, but diversity in spite of its challenges is beautiful.
Do we want diversity or do we want division caused by the venom of hate.
Stand for diversity and fight against division.
This is the foundational principle of bharatiya culture.
