Washington DC is polarized into two fiercely competitive camps — the Woke Left and the MAGA Right. Pakistan has infiltrated both sides with highly trained lobbyists who act like “troops” in the policy battlefield. India, on the other hand, remains largely absent, reacting only after the fact. Why is India asleep at the wheel while Pakistan mobilizes its lobby troops in every think tank, institutio...

"I think that many people have written about Hinduism, and they've tried to defend it. But Rajiv Ji's approach was so different. He came up with a completely new methodology, a new paradigm, and a new framework for analysing what's going on. He did a root-cause analysis of all these things that had been happening at that time. He came up with frameworks like the digestion theory and the U-turn the...

"From the first book that I read, I was full of admiration for him. I was stunned that this person from a science background has taken on the leading experts and scholars in the European world, taken them by name and exposed their design to divide India.

I think many youngsters have just found the confidence to even go out and present their work, talk about it amongst the public because of the initiatives which Infinity Foundation has taken.

"I think Rajiv Malhotra has this great knack for going to the very heart of what the issues are, and he's very articulate. I remember him writing very long rejoinders, and there were various groups where people used to write their opinions, and he was certainly the most articulate, and he was not afraid of a fight, because you can be diplomatic for only so long, and sooner or later you have to say...

"I think Rajiv's had this impact on the field by being able to see so far ahead. He's been able to raise a generation of leaders, that have come under his umbrella. He has within his perception, the kernel of a vision for the future of Hindu life that is more active, that is more action oriented, and that sets Hindus, and the rest of the world with the responsibility to be hands on about the probl...
