"A Hindu is one who adores and worships the land of his birth or the land of his forefathers, Bharatavarsha, stretching from the Himalayas from where the River Sindhu flows, to Kanyakumari whose feet is washed by the three great oceans, the Sindhus, as his Pitrubhoomi, the land of his forefathers and Punyabhoomi, the Holy land, and respects and reveres the values of life that have sprung up in this land"—
"aasindhu sindhu sindhu paryeta
yasya bhaarata bhoomika,
pitrubhoo punyabhooschiava
sa vai Hinduriti smritah"
In other words, he alone is a Hindu who worships the Motherland as the Supreme Deity, above all gods and goddesses that are the personal deities of worship of individuals. It is immaterial whether you believe in a personal god or an impersonal god, whether you accept idol worship or not, whether you accept any religious scripture or not, whether you follow any religious master, cult or school of thought or not and whether you go to a temple or place of worship or not. It is enough if you love your Motherland and Her children and are prepared to sacrifice your life for the country. How many such Hindus are there in our country today? In the day today life of every Hindu, the first and foremost thing he is expected to do as soon as he rises up from the bed is to pray to his Divine Mother, the Mother Earth, chanting the sloka,
" Samudravasane devi parvatasthanamandale,
vishnupatnee namastubhyam
paadasparsham kshamaswame"
"Oh Mother Earth, the Divine Consort of Lord Vishnu, whose dress is the ocean and whose breasts are the mountains, salutations to thee; please pardon our blasphemous act of placing our feet on you when we get up." How many Hindus on this earth know this tradition today, leave alone the spirit of patriotism?
Hinduism is not a religion . It's a great culture . A culture which has values and which teaches us to love our nation more than anything . Whether a christian or muslim or buddhist , love for nation is the most important . Every person whether hindu or muslim....belongs to the great hindu vedic culture...... and be proud about that......

muslims have nothing to do with hindu vedic culture.. so, ur not supposed to define being a proud citizen of hindustan jst coz ur hindu. i'm hindu too. but don't really believe in such acts.
