PLURALISM IN HINDI-URDU

I need your help in figuring the word for pluralism in Urdu and Hindi. I have been searching many dictionaries and many translations of the word Pluralism in frustration. In English, I am blessed to be an expert on Pluralism and have written over 1000 articles on the topic in major national publications.

Pluralism in not a religion, art or science, it is merely an attitude of live and let live. If we can learn to respect the otherness of others, and accept the God given uniqueness of each one of the 7 billion of us, then conflicts fade and solutions emerge.

After reading the following, I request you to write your understanding of the subject and how you would define Pluralism in Urdu and Hindi. Extensive work is done and can be found at www.Foundationforplrualism.com and www.pluralismcenter.com

Finally I found the near correct meaning of the word in Urdu. I am still not satisfied with the word تَکثیریت but the meaning is close.

تَکثیریت ۔ جمع کے صیغہ میں ہونے کی کیفیت ۔

تَکثِيريَت ۔ جَمَع کے صِيغَہ ميں ہونے کی کيفِيَت ۔ کِسی مُعاشرے کی وہ نوعِيَت جِس کے اَندَر مُختَلِف لِسانی مُعاشَرتی اور ثَقافَتی مُفادات موجُود ہوں ۔ آپَس ميں مِل کر مَجمُوعی ترَقّی کر رہے ہوں ۔

http://www.urduenglishdictionary.org/English-To-Urdu-Translation/Pluralism/Page-1.htm?SearchType=1

Hindi is no different, but found many words, but I am inclined towards the word Anekāntavāda at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anekantavada which near perfectly describes pluralism

Anekāntavāda (Devanagari: अनेकान्तवाद) is one of the most important and fundamental doctrines of Jainism. It refers to the principles of pluralism and multiplicity of viewpoints, the notion that truth and reality are perceived differently from diverse points of view, and that no single point of view is the complete truth.^[1][2]

I would change the phrase from complete truth to exclusive truth to make full sense of Pluralism, as it is complete truth to the believer of each faith tradition, the problem is with exclusive truth and not complete truth.

Indeed, when I started working on Pluralism in 1993, I understood Anekantavada to be pluralism, and I am deeply influenced by the Jain thought on Pluralism.

I find a deeper connection between the above verse of Quran and the Hindu idea of Vasudhaiva Kutumbukum, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasudhaiva_Kutumbakam

Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (Sanskrit: वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम. from "vasudha", the earth; "iva" = is as a; and "kutumbakam", family;) is a Sanskrit phrase ^[1] that means that the whole world is one single family. Everyone have their own worldview which is quite often different from person to person. Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam means repsecting this difference.^[2] contrary to single worldview or attitude marketed by the West. Vasudhaiva_Kutumbakam also says animals, birds, plants, trees and other organisms in the ecosystem have atma they are part of our Kutumba.^[3]^{49:13 (Asad) "O men! Behold, We have created you all out of a male and a female, [15]} and have made you into nations and tribes, so that you might come to know one another."

URDU ADAB - HINDI SAMSKRTI

This is perhaps the first step in Urdu and Hindi languages to focus on Pluralism. We hope, it will trigger more poetry and eventually will permeate in to the psyche of the soociety.

Hindi and Urdu poets are requested to submit their poem before June 15, to be published on the site and in the book to be released on June 29, 2013.

We hope the poetry will be sensitive and respectful of every religion, race, ethnicity, gender, color and nationality. It’s a conscious step in advancing our culture of respecting each other’s uniqueness and accepting each other for who we are. The completed poetry must be in by June 15th to make it to the book.

FUTURE SOCIETIES

By the end of 2020, there will not be a major city, where you will not find people of different faiths, cultures, ethnicities, races, nationalities and social backgrounds working, eating, playing, marrying, and doing things together.

We need to prepare ourselves for such eventualities to prevent possible conflicts, and lay a good foundation for nurturing goodwill and effective functioning of the societies. Exclusive communities will become a thing of the past. If you live amidst others, you must also respect the otherness of others, as you expect them to do the same for you.

If we can learn to respect the otherness of others and accept the God given uniqueness of each one of the 7 billion of us, then conflicts fade and solutions emerge.
