Pastimes of the Lord in His Youth
337
TRANSLATION
“In our village relationship, Nīlāmbara Cakravartī Thākura was my uncle. Such a relationship is stronger than a bodily relationship.
PURPORT
In India, even in the interior villages, all the Hindu and Muslim communities used to live very peacefully by establishing a relationship between them. The young men called the elderly members of the village by the name  cācā  or  kākā , “uncle,” and men of the same age called each other  dādā , “brother.” The relationship was very friendly. There were even invitations from Mohammedan houses to Hindu houses and from Hindu houses to Mohammedan houses. Both the Hindus and the Mohammedans accepted the invitations to go to each other’s houses to attend ceremonial functions. Even until fifty or sixty years ago, the relationship between Hindus and Muslims was very friendly, and there were no disturbances. We do not find any Hindu-Muslim riots in the history of India, even during the days of the Mohammedans’ rule over the country. Conflict between Hindus and Muslims was created by polluted politicians, especially foreign rulers, and thus the situation gradually became so degraded that India was divided into Hindustan and Pakistan. Fortunately, the remedy to unite not only the Hindus and Muslims but all communities and all nations can still be implemented by the Hare Kṛṣṇa movement on the strong basic platform of love of Godhead.
