    Hindu only: Krishna is formless [Rebutting Vaishnawism]

    Worship can be done of both visible and invisible but for invisible, lord Krishna said to make progress in that discipline is difficult for those who are embodied. Yes, even I believe that Brahman is beyond the form and formless state, he is Avyakta. __________________ Jai Shree Krishna. 1...

    Hindu only: Krishna is formless [Rebutting Vaishnawism]

    I wasn't able to find the proper description about the verse. Thank you for the clarification. In your thread you wrote about formless (God) so do you worship God as formless or with form ? __________________ Jai Shree Krishna. 1. Even if someone is the most sinful of all sinners, he can also...

    World Religions 101

    Kalidas, you got a great opportunity to give presentation about Kali Maa and puja. My suggestion is that you should explain as you said "Feeling she is the most misunderstood and misrepresented of the deities". So that if there is any confusion even in the audience's minds about Kali Maa then...

    Hindu only: Krishna is formless [Rebutting Vaishnawism]

    Hey Hinduism♥Krishna, I have a question for you. This question may look weird but I would like to know your thoughts on this. So my question is : Who is better Brahman or Krishna ? Or do you consider no one is better ? __________________ Jai Shree Krishna. 1. Even if someone is the...

    Acknowledging Impositions & Understanding How to Counter Them: Anti-Hindu Encroachments

    Poeticus, thanks for sharing your conversation. You may ask the guy that before getting married to Maa Saraswati, Lord Brahma was never married to anyone, then how can you call Maa Saraswati as daughter of Lord Brahma ?? Maa Saraswati is known as one of the creatures of lord Brahma (Not by...

    Bhakta Prahlada - 1931 Telugu movie

    The animation was awesome for that time. I like that. There were two TV series by Ramanand Sagar one is Ramayan and the second one is Krishna. The Ramayan TV series was started in 1987 and it holds a world record of "world's most viewed mythological serial". The Krishna TV series was also...

    Does this offend you?

    The problem is some people use very bad abusive words or/and make highly inappropriate sexual comments against the character without knowing/understanding who actually the deity is, the character belongs to. If this is done even with my mother then also I can go against those games and when this...

    Does this offend you?

    Thanks Kalidas for sharing this news about the game. There is no being that can exist without the deity. They should understand that deities are not toys. I have seen many images of the game and they did not look appropriate and in games some people use very bad words to comment on characters...

    Beginner's questions

    Since many have replied very nicely so I don't have much to answer. :) Indeed Hinduism is not a religion of doing the works (e.g. worship) forcefully. So even if you worship one single deity, it does Not mean that other deities get offended. I worship many deities and it's worshiping of...

    Yes, Modiji made a lot of efforts to prevent the riots. Around 200 police officers died while trying to control the violence. After lengthy investigation, supreme court of India mentioned Modiji as innocent and gave him clean chit. The people of Gujarat suffered a lot from that riots but they...

    Interested in learning more about Hinduism

    It depends on karma whether reincarnation will happen backward or forward. Few years back an Indian news channel showed that a lady whose husband died before some years that soul again got a body in the form of a human. The news channel further showed that a kid came to the lady and told all...

    Interested in learning more about Hinduism

    I disagree on this. A soul gets a body depends on 'karma' that were done in previous life/lives. After death it immediately gets decided that what kind of a body a soul will get. If you wish to choose other person's soul for birth of a child even then it's not necessary that it will happen...

    Interested in learning more about Hinduism

    Brother Punkdbass, my suggestion is that you should study (with faith in god) sequentially the books "Ramayana", "Mahabharata" and then very very important "Bhagwad Gita". A lot of divine knowledge is there in these books. Truly there is in this world nothing so purifying as knowledge.-...

    Moksha and who is "worthy" of it

    Yes, I also agree with you. You already know that many rules of Islam directly conflict with the principles of "Dharma". So obviously you were joking... :) Truly there is in this world nothing so purifying as knowledge.- (Bhagwad Gita [4.38])

    Moksha and who is "worthy" of it

    It would be definitely great and joyful if all people follow "Dharma". It would be as if we are living in "Satyug". Truly there is in this world nothing so purifying as knowledge.- (Bhagwad Gita [4.38])

    Moksha and who is "worthy" of it

    My brother as you know there are some (not all) principles in other religions like Islam which are against the main basic principles of "Dharma"! So there is an advantage to the people who are following Hinduism because it's easier for them to have faith in those principles of "Dharma" defined...
