True, let me frame it differently. Today, w modern states very intrusive role in life, suppose state is strictly "Westernized Secular", would Hinduism survive in India? in most of India? in parts of India? Thot is that officially secular=advantage Xtianity (and less so, Islam?)

Again, to an outsider, it looks like this: You think X shd hv happened, but clearly Y happened. Why? and what can be done about it? "I ask, O fathers, not to challenge, but to know"

-
The deeper reasons are that Hinduism has not yet adapted itself to the modern world - either to industrialization or the Abrahamic cults. The intellectual resources needed for such an effort appear exhausted fighting the Mughals and then the British.
-
No Hindu leadership since the 19th century Nationalists have been capable of what's required - a sustained grappling with the present, a renaissance and incorporation of ancient wisdom, and a vision for the future. Perhaps it's already dead and we're just zombies.
