Finally, it provides examples of how Orientalist discourse enabled Westerners like Flaubert to speak for and represent Eastern cultures while asserting power and authority over them.

On Pollock-ism
"Philosophy in India",(which its Sanskrit Knowledge System,[SKS],principally carries) is essentially spiritual." wrote Dr. Radhakrishnan , "It is the intense spirituality of India, and not any great political structure or...that it has developed, that has enabled it to resist the ravages of time and the accidents of that history... Throughout its life it has been living with one purpose. ... The history of Indian thought illustrates the endless quest of the mind, ever old, ever new".
Contrary to that, Prof. Pollock, through his, "political or liberation philology" declares Indian Sanskrit Knowledge System has been, void of any spirituality, full of internal conflicts, divisive, artificially created under power-culture manipulations, and hence oppressive, immoral and criminal.
The paper ponders and digs deep into the bare ideological foundation of Pollock's liberation philology and analytics and succeeds in finding one to one correspondence between Pollock's analysis and conclusions drawn on Indian Sanskrit Knowledge System; and, the "broad tenets" of "Marxist dialectical-historical-materialism", proving concerned writings by Prof. Pollock, to be purely atheist, but not- ideologically-neutral, "Marxist writings" which Professor has very carefully kept disguised under the carpet of technical jargons, logically circular and metaphorical writing style and deletion of key words.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
