We
common Indians know and claim; WE ARE SECULAR AND WE ARE PARTS OF THE BIGGEST
SECULAR SYSTEM.
To make us secular our history is twisted by a
Buddhist; Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedkar. He imposed Buddhist symbols, using the name
of first emperor ASHOK who was a Buddhist.
In turn Lord Buddha was degraded in the name of a
Buddhist emperor courtesy Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedkar.
Our Indian secular national flag (EMBLEM OF SECULAR
INDIA) carries a wheel with twentyfour spokes named ASHOK CHAKRA.
History of wheel (Chakra)
According to Sanatan Dharm (Hindu religion), Puranas
mention that twentyfour Rishis wielded the whole power of the Gayatri Mantra.
These twentyfour rishis in Himalayas are represented through the twentyfour
letters of Gayatri Mantra. The twentyfour spokes of Dharma Chakra are
representation of all these twentyfour rishis in which Vishvamitra is first and
Yajnavalkya is last, who governs the religion (Dharma).
This Chakra is symbol of Dharma chakra and also
known as Samay Chakra in twentyfour spokes represent the twentyfour hours of a
day and symbol of the movement of the time.
When Buddha achieved nirvana (Enlightenment) at Gaya; he came to Sarnath (on the outskirts of Varanasi). There He found his five disciples (panch vargiya Bhikshu) Ashwajeet, Mahanaam, Kaundinya, Bhadrak and Kashyap, who had earlier abandoned him.

He preached his first sermon to them, thereby
promulgating Dharma chakra. This is the motif taken up by Ashok and portrayed
on top of his pillars. This is the origin of the Chakra in the Indian flag and
it asserts the strong ties of India with the Buddhist faith.
It is also known as Bhava chakra. The twelve out of twentyfour
spokes represent the twelve causal links taught by The Buddha.
The twelve causal links, paired with their
corresponding symbols, are:
1.
Avidyā lack of knowledge -
a blind person, often walking, or a person
peering out
2.

volitional activity - a potter shaping a vessel or
Vessels

nose, tongue, body, and mind) - a

All documents originated from offices of Government
of India carry an emblem GROUP OF FOUR LIONS named as ASHOK KI LATH
Group
of four lions sitting back to back on a pillar:
The group of four lions sitting back to back jointly
symbolize preaching of 'The Four Noble Truths' of Buddhism to all; those
that emphasize the Middle Path. The symbol U with a vertical line placed
symmetrically inside it symbolizes 'The Middle Path'. The Middle Path is the
fundamental philosophy of Buddhism, the Buddhist (Bauddha) Dharma.
Now
we have TO decide how much secular we are.
