    Chaturshloki Bhagvatam

    Namaste, People appreciate things that are unrelated to God, and people who do not relate to God. Why is that? Why don't we take only worshiping God as the only thing to desire, value and appreciate? What does this mean? Why is it like this? Doesn't seem to make any sense. If there is a God...

    Chaturshloki Bhagvatam

    Just because God is "beyond" "cause and effect" doesn't mean that there are no causes or effects. Nor that whatever we see is God. Thankfully we got Puranas to correct people from saying funny stuff like this. Lord Shiva destroys all "ego" upon universal destruction. So it cannot be the same.

    Are eggs vegetarian?

    I don't appreciate you undermining my religion by attaching a virtue such as the observance of offering the food to the Deity prior to consuming it to gluttony. Yeah. Let's forbid nipples too. The Prophet Muhammad said, "No child is born but upon an Unbeliever. It is his parents who make...

    Is Our Dharma Really Sanathana?

    I'm not sorry that the fact my religion is called, the Eternal Law, prickles your feelings. "Sanatana" is a Sanskrit word that denotes that which which is Anadi (beginningless), Anantha (endless) and does not cease to be, that which is eternal and everlasting. With its rich connotations...

    Do all the Hindus or Hinduism have a set common belief?

    If Hinduism had a single religious leader that went around attacking and beheading heretics. Sure. :) You know, like breaking the idols of other Gods and ask "where is your God? show me your God! make your God manifest if you can. Call upon witnesses apart from my God, if you dare. My God will...

    Is Jesus an avatar of Lord Vishnu?

    All the incarnations that should be relevant to Hindus have been revealed in the Vedic scriptures. Jesus, Bahaullah, Gulam Mirza Ahmad, 7th century Muhammad... Hmmm... I wonder if Christians, Bahais, Ahmadiyyas and the rest of their fellow Muslims start having icons of Vishnu and worshipping...

    Fellow Christians: I Don't Think I Really Understand The Trinity

    lol I'm pretty sure that's going to upset many Christians. BTW that's exactly what the "extremist" Muslims who call you Christians as Mushriks/Kaffirs(idolators-polytheists/infidels) say.

    Fellow Christians: I Don't Think I Really Understand The Trinity

    You Christians are deluding yourselves even further here. This example that you are using is different types of personal relationships altogether. And this can apply to the same personage of God. Not 3 different personages.

    Is Our Dharma Really Sanathana?

    Sanatana Dharma will not end simply with Hindus or when universe dies.;) However Sanatana Dharma has got to do with Bharat(India). So if you want to wipe Hinduism out, try and do something about India.

    Gayatri Mantra

    Intentions are more important than mere actions. But the thing is Sanskrit is not considered to be simply a man-made language. Its considered to be a Divine language and thus its words are held to be sacred. The usage of them is believed to have a sure effect, be it negative or positive, on a...

    Can a Christian boy Marry a Hindu Girl ?

    How about people stop commenting unless they are 1) Hindu 2) knowledgeable on sacred Hindu laws ? As he requested the OP wasn't asking about your own personal and subjective opinions. Actually Hindu parents tend to be against their sons marrying females of other religions rather than...

    My fav examples of this are "I wanna talk to God, but I'm afraid cuz we ain't spoken so long" in 'Jesus walks' by Kanye West and "I really need to talk to you Lord since the last time we talked, the walk has been hard, now I know you haven't left me but I feel like I've been alone" in 'Lord give...

    Wait I wasn't talking about the soul and I didn't say you have to be ignorant! What I was speaking about is the act of worship that is external i.e prostrating as a part of basic ritual worship. Worship exists in many different forms and level. "It is very important for me to have...

    Of course temples are essentially a "Brahmin's place of residence" which serve as places of multiple purposes such as halls for discourse for Brahmins and also as libraries where theological literature are kept and preserved. Still I think that there should have been certain type of temples...

    "So you comment put me in mind of the people who consider normal human behaviour to be 'abhorrent'. I can see what you are saying, that what one wears is of no real importance. But I would never go as far as to say that I abhor it." I dislike and avoid all forms of heresy and try to create an...

    "I don't feel guilty for not being a Self-Realised soul." lol theres nothing to do with being "Self realized" here. Oh my goodness theres so many things to correct Hindus on about. Theres nothing whatsoever else to "realize" about when you worship God, actually. You can even not know much about...
