Bengaliness, are much more primitive and fundamental than the Hinduism of India

 As a mature person, you have to take responsibility for your wrong perception and the wrong decisions you make from it. One thing many people do not know is that even though we were born in India, the Bengali nation and their culture, Bengaliness, are much more primitive and fundamental than the Hinduism of India. In fact, Bengal was a non-Hindu area. Hinduism came to Bengal much later, there was Adi Dharma or Nature Religion. Just as Islam entered Bengal four to five hundred years ago, Hinduism entered Bengal seven to eight hundred years ago. Just as Islam had to assimilate many things from Bengali culture when Islam entered Bengal, mainstream Hinduism also had to do the same. As a result, you will see a cultural similarity between Bengali Hindus and Bengali Muslims. The signs of this cultural similarity match the Hindus of the eastern part of Pakistan but do not match the Afghan and Iranians to their west. This is why they think that Bengalis are Hindus. Because of this wrong perception and the wrong decisions they make from it, Pakistan has been divided into two.

Similarly, the mental organization or construct of the movement and liberation war of independent Bangladesh, and the emotions of the Awami League, have a similarity in values. Just as the Pakistanis, seeing the cultural similarity of Bengalis with Hindutva, made a wrong perception and wrong decision that Bengalis are Hindus, now many people, seeing the similarity in values, are considering the mentality of independent Bangladesh to be the Awami mentality. Be very careful. As a mature person, you have to take responsibility for your wrong perception and the wrong decisions you make from it. In this country, you are taught from childhood to hate a girl based on what she wears, or whether a man prayed or not. But you are not outside of that. Your fate is the result of your thoughts and decisions.
