Even other countries face this challenge but there, it is between liberal society founded on Abrahamic principles and this religion.
India is unique because of the nature of Sanatana Dharma
One religion focuses on living a good, decent life, doing one’s dharma while being cognizant of impact of one’s actions over many births.
Other focuses only on after life, advocates even hurting others in its name.
Under which system can they coexist - serious answers pls
Even other countries face this challenge but there, it is between liberal society founded on Abrahamic principles and this religion.
India is unique because of the nature of Sanatana Dharma
1. values his own existence so poorly that life has no meaning for him
2. Or brainwashed to believe that some lives aren't even lives so they can be taken
3. or rewards of some mythical heaven worth killing
So I can understand why Modi Ji is working to bring them into mainstream and give them hope in life away from those who have kept them in ghettos.
That takes care of the 1st group.
What abt the other 2?
But the second and third - those that don’t value non-believers’ life is worth it or those that think promise of heaven is more important. How does one handle them.
Hoping for internal reformation hasn’t worked out.
What now?
But let the other two know that whatever rewards they expect in heaven their stay in this world after they commit violence would be worse than anything they imagine.
Carrot & stick
One civilization feels like doing good deeds is the way to attain Moksha (NOT same as heaven).
Other thinks even killing is worth doing to get to heaven.
In this clash only one will win. Who will it be?
1. Yes we consider our relationship to divine personal but we were a community. Rebuild connections
2. Go to local temple on certain day as community. We used to do this: Friday - Devi, Mon - shiva etc. you aren’t alone
4. You can still keep your traditions and practices and your community without using caste as a wall. They will use it to divide you. Realize you are Hindu first.
6. Boycott brands that support conversion or don’t condemn violence against you.
7. Vote blindly for BJP. Defeat every anti Hindu party first. Then ask BJP to do it’s job
Please live as a good Hindu and raise a Hindu family in touch with its roots and culture. Don’t worry about those that look down on Sanskari / traditional types. They aren’t your friends.

Thank you @GunduHuDuGa dor reminding us about Margazhi
Here are some resources to both get the verses and read in detail the translation and the more detailed treatment of the meaning of the devotional verses.
#Thiruppavai
Andal is Devi’s amsavatharam, Sri Devi incarnated in the form of Seethā performed upadeshak to the people of the earth. It is said that she even did Upadesham to Ravana who did not heed her but in his next birth as Sisupālan redeemed himself.
Through her #Thiruppavai prabhandham she is showing us the way to reach Bhagavan’s feet.
