1. Swami Dayanand, Yug Pravartak / Yug Drashta, Founder of Arya Samaj, rebuilt the entire Indian nation & HINDU Society in a NEW Mould where every Hindu & Arya had to believe firmly that this country ” BHARAT” is their own land & No person of FOREIGN BIRTH could ever become HEAD of its affairs in any way.

7. Swami Dayanand propagated that all people are born equal & No one is Brahmin, Vaishya, Shatriya or Shudra by birth , but these are according to the profession one chooses and each of these sects are complimentary to each other & None is superior or inferior to the other.

8.Dayanand infused a thought amongst our Hindu Society that the West has not contributed anything towards the emancipation of our Country’s welfare, rather the West owe to us for everything, every progress which they unjustifiably claim of theirs, including the invention of “Zero”.

9. Dayanand strongly believed in a National Religion , based on intense dedicated, true, selfless, fearless nationalism , a thought which he propagated amongst all the Hindus of India, preparing for Self-Rule & Freedom, based on equality ; its details are enshrined in ” Sstyarth Prakash” by Maharishi Dayanand Saraswati.
