There is nothing like nationalism when you perform commercial activities. What you need is profit and money.
There is lot of shout against ISIS. Many are being branded anti national for some speeches and slogans.
But what about those helping ISIS through export. There are many Indian companies also involved. There is hardly any resentment against such anti national activity.

Study of Hinduism makes confusion. It is not easy to understand the costumes and traditions of Hindu religion. In Hinduism there are so may gods and goddesses. I think that people who believe in Hinduism also do't have much knowledge about their gods. Some people worship some animals as god. They believe in holy spirit as well as evil spirit. I cannot recognize the caste discrimination in Hinduism.
I agree. There is lot of confusion owing to innumerable gods/ goddesses/deities and conflicts among followers. I am Hindu but was not aware of the fact that many worship Mahishsur- whom Goddess Durga killed. Union Minister Smriti Irani attempted to read a pamphlet that praised Mahisasur and abused Durga. Thus there is animosity between worshipers of Durga and Mahishasur.
India being a multi religious country and also that among Hindus also there are contrary faiths, there is no way other than to respect diversity. In these circumstances it is deplorable to define nationalism in terms of one religion only. Nation consists of many shades of faith and diverse cultures and beliefs. So we need more tolerance. Nationalism is nothing but respecting unity in diversity. Any organization or group hurting either diversity or unity is anti national.

The current state of communal tension leads to unwarranted occurrences. It is not always that only one community loses always. Vishwa Hindu Parishad (RSS outfit) is active in creating communal hatred. Recently, a VHP activist who crusaded against cow slaughter has been killed. So there is some tension but situation is under control.

People speaking Urdu in South India always reminded me of Mehmood the great Indian actor. Same accent, same tone and same words. Some of them made strange comments while talking to each other which I heard by chance in cinema halls, buses etc.

I agree what is far more important is to be a good citizen and contribute in a positive manner rather than be a stumbling block which is what many political parties are in the name of nationalism and so called patriotism.. Strikes and destruction of public property is actively encouraged by these political parties setting a bad example, just yesterday they were showing a video of a politician beating up a lady cop who was only doing her duty !
