""Unsere Hoffnung ruht in den jungen Leuten, die an Temperaturerhöhung leiden, weil in ihnen der grüne Eiter des Ekels frißt, in den Seelen von Grandezza, deren Träger wir gleich Kranken zwischen der Ordnung der Futtertröge einherschleichen sehen. Sie ruht im Aufstand, der sich der Herrschaft der Gemütlichkeit entgegenstellt und der der Waffen einer gegen die Welt der Formen gerichteten Zerstörung, des Sprengstoffes, bedarf, damit der Lebensraum leergefegt werde für eine neue Hierarchie."
"Irgendwann bricht eine Revolte aus."
"Ich habe immer schon die linken Entschuldigungen für Terrorismus kritisiert, diese naive Idee, das sei der Aufstand der Unterdrückten dieser Erde."
"Hört man je, dass dicke Männer einen Aufstand geführt hätten?"
"Der Zweck der Aufstände aber ist Gewinn und Ehre oder ihr Gegenteil."
Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
