Conclusion is tough when it comes to a vast multi-dimensional organisation like RSS which thrives on contradictions… but it has to be made here.

When Dr. Hedgewar launched RSS in 1925, it was planned in some gymnasiums and the anthem was Marati.  However, as the organisation grew it needed full-timers and the moorings grew on Sanskrit as it was the consensus language.

The fact that the RSS is growing despite hiccups stands testimony to its birth on Vijayadashami.  No amount of bans and character assassination bids could stop the growth of RSS — although it did lead to delay. It was Dr. Hedgewar’s vision that the organisation would be a success and Hindu Rashtra would be a reality when 0.5 percent of Indian villages and 1 percent of Indian cities were active swayamsewaks.  Despite growth, that target has not yet been reached.  But the RSS ideology has no opposition despite virulent propaganda by the media.

When Nehru thundered that he would crush the RSS, Golwalkar (the then RSS chief) had retored that the crushing mentality would be crushed.  The same is true even now.  The RSS model based on the ideology of Advaita is an unqualified success.  There may be hiccups here and there….. but that would be cleared at the appropriate time.

Hindu Rashtra is a fact.. It is an idea whose time has come.  It must be said that Rashtra is not necessarily a nation.  It could even be a world.  The RSS — despite its shortcomings — has been able to communicate the message of Hindutva to a large extent.
