National Herald Falsely Claims Hinduism took all the good aspects of Buddhism and Jainism
In the article, the writer makes a claim against reconversion to Hinduism saying that it is against the faith. She also makes a claim that Adi Shankaracharya, to save Hinduism from extinction, "infused Hinduism with the best... elements of Buddhism and Jainism", implying that whatever makes Hinduism noble and nonviolent is that it has copied from the other religions. This denies the richness of the oldest of faiths. Later, when she says that the caste system decrees that it takes several births to be a Brahmin (which is half-translation of the scriptures), it shows an agenda to decry Hinduism. She also claims that tho point fingers at others for attacking Hinduism is unfair and intolerant.
