Can you see my response to Mohit? It suggests that the Sanatani movement won't make major headway since it is counter to the core of Hinduism, to be open to acceptance of other views.
By "it" you mean the movement? You're in a better position than I to assess that, but I'd guess a political tool, in which case, it will shift a few people in that direction, but unlikely to make major inroads in changing Hinduism. But that's me talking from afar.
As an outsider who visits India several times a year, I see changes every time, but they are more economic, such as increasing consumerism. I don't sense the "Hindutva" stuff that newspapers often talk about.
This acceptance of the other, which your AI analysis highlights as a key feature of Hinduism (among other religions), is exactly what the Hindu Right Wing wants to alter. Along with giving doctrinal supremacy to one text, the Gita.

Indeed. It seems that such an endeavor is likely to fail.
On the other hand, it is much easier to defend a view that is not inclusive to begin with, and one that forbids acceptance of other views, isn't it?
Based on this logic, I would expect Hinduism to remain more stable in its practice.
One can only hope so.
