P.N. Oak's humbug

Subject: P.N. Oak's humbug

1. Quote: Will you please stop exposing a worthy cause/website like faithfreedom to ridicule by tainting it with PN Oak nonsense? Hindu tradition has handbooks on temple-building, and none contain the groundplan and features of the Taj Mahal. Nor is there any Hindu temple past or present that looks like the Taj Mahal. The building may well stand on the site of a Rajput pavilion, but it never ever was a Shiva temple.

2. My Take:
P.N. Oak's argument has been denounced by nearly every Hindu activity in India. Every reputable writer ( Anwar Shaikh, Dr. Rajaram, Dr. Elst, Sita Ram Goel et al ) have deprecated his flimflam observations. Sita Ram Goel calls P.N. Oak as the biggest disaster for Hinduism. Sita Ram Goel tells me that as early as 1955, he had warned P.N. Oak in person, to cease & desist from twisting & mis-representing " words " and " events, " but P.N. Oak won't suspend his Bull-Sh**,

3. P.N. Oak had a fancy for " twisting " and " mis-construing " the meaning of words and events of history. He was the biggest bull-sh**er, and that is not an exaggeration either.

4. But what bothers me is Not so much as P.N. Oak, but P.N. Oak-ism, because several Hindus believe his Bull-Sh**, and Oak's copy-cats are expanding & enlarging Oak-ism to more words & events, which have absolutely no basis in truth or fact. This ruins the reputation of Hindus & Hinduism. It diminishes Hindu arguments on such issues as Ram Janam Bhoomi, because if Hindus can lie about Taj Mahal, then they can lie about Ram Janam Bhoomi as well.
