Суд над Бхагавад-гитой / Attempt to ban Bhagavad-gita

Petitions express opinions. Disagreeing with a petition, or thinking it is pointless, is not grounds for a report, and such reports are closed automatically. Report a petition only if it breaks the law or our Community Guidelines, for example hate speech, defamation of a person or organisation, publishing private information, or fraud. We do not check whether the claims in a petition are true; the author is responsible for them.

This report goes to the people who run this website, not to the petition author or to any authority. If you have a question or feedback for the author, send them a message.

Petitions express opinions. Disagreeing with a petition, or thinking it is pointless, is not grounds for a report, and we do not remove petitions because people oppose them.

If you send this, your disagreement is recorded and the report is closed automatically with no action; the decision is sent to your email address. If the content breaks the law or our Community Guidelines, choose that option above instead.

You can also start your own petition or contact the author.

Is the false claim about you, your organisation, or another identifiable person or organisation?

Суд над Бхагавад-гитой / Attempt to ban Bhagavad-gita

В России, в городе Томске, идет суд над одной из популярных священных книг мира – «Бхагавад-гитой как она есть» («Бхагавад-гита» в переводе и с комментариями А.Ч. Бхактиведанты Свами Прабхупады). Прокуратура города Томска предлагает признать самое известное священное писание индуизма экстремистской литературой. «Бхагавад-гита как она есть» переведена более чем на 80 языков и выпущена тиражом более 50 миллионов экземпляров! Ее считают своей главной книгой миллионы людей во всем мире!

Это абсурдное решение продавливается в суде с упорством, достойным лучшего применения. В ходе трех судебных слушаний экспертиза, на основании которой начался процесс, была признана «несостоятельной». Но прокуратура потребовала заказать новую экспертизу, причем не у признанных ученых-востоковедов, а у никому не известных сотрудников Кемеровского Государственного Университета. Все это наводит на мысли о предрешенности исхода суда. Эта практика напоминает средневековые судилища, костры из книг и процессы над инакомыслящими.

Подробная информация о претензиях прокуратуры и ходе процесса размещена в Википедии.

Уполномоченный по правам человека в Томской области, видные ученые-востоковеды, представители Общественной палаты России, посольства Индии, индийской общины и простые люди, относящиеся к разным конфессиям, уже высказали свое недоумение действиями Томской прокуратуры.

Мы требуем прекратить суд над священным писанием! Эта инициатива Томской прокуратуры задевает чувства верующих и позорит нашу страну!

Bhagavad-gita As It Is, one of the most respected holy scriptures of the world today, is under the threat of being banned in Russia.

The court proceedings will resume in Siberian city Tomsk, Russia, on Monday 19th. The prosecutors in Tomsk suggest that the widely distributed book translated and commented upon by A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada should be included in the Justice Ministry's list of banned extremist literature.

Bhagavad-gita As It Is is translated in more than 80 languages. Over 100 million copies of this book was distributed to date all over the world! Millions of people in the world today consider it as the main book in their life.

The prosecutors with great determination and vigor are pushing through this absurd case. During the first three court hearings, the testimony of the Tomsk experts upon which the prosecutors built their case for the court was recognized as «inadequate». However, the Prosecutor's Office

ordered the new testimony. Noteworthy, that the testimony was requested not from the well-known experts of Hinduism from Moscow, but from some unknown experts from Kemerovo State University. This move clearly suggests that the court decision is already predestined. This practice brings to memory the Middle Age Inquisition, Witch hunting, burning of books and the persecution of the dissidents during Soviet period of Russian history.

Tomsk Ombudsperson, eminent scholars of Hinduism, the members of the Public Chamber of Russian Federation, representatives of Indian community in Russia, and people belonging to different religious denominations in Russia have already expressed their perplexity and outrage caused by the activities of Tomsk prosecutors.

We demand to stop the court over the Holy Scripture! These initiatives of the Tomsk Prosecutor’s Office offend the religious sentiments of all the followers of Hinduism and bring disgrace to the country of Russia.
