The Bhagavad Gita is prophetic as it talks of future events.
Madhuri, from sites like this, I would imagine ... "Lord Shiva", and His relationship to Jesus Christ in Kashmir in the first century AD.
Advaitin Hindus believe that Brahman does not have physical form but will take physical form when He needs to.
It's very useful to know though, as it explains a lot about human behaviour. Sometimes I think we're pretty optimistically naive as to what other people actually believe.Well, that was a few minutes of my life I'll never get back. I feel so much more stupider now.
Had already said in the conversation, there are a couple of places where Krishna points out to Arjuna that he should fight, as regardless everyone will be destroyed in the Mahapralaya anyway (11:32-33).Where?
I beg to differ and this sounds an awful lot like preaching, which is banned here.Really feel sorry for any who find such divide...
There is only one Heaven, there is only one reality; with one being sustaining it, and you think books trying to explain it from different cultures are so far apart, they're talking about completely different realities, and then claim that to be the most logical.
It is like when the Day of the Lord (Mahapralaya) happens, and you're like you're not the God i followed in my book.
Wake up, there is only One.
Nope it wasn't preaching, it is questioning the facts, based upon the majority of eschatology texts globally....Curious where you beg to differ?I beg to differ and this sounds an awful lot like preaching, which is banned here.
I believe I have to admit I don't know much and have gone by the way I have seen him depicted. I looked him up on Wikipedia and he is depicted there with a snake and a trident which in Christian circles makes him more like the Devil. However it did say some nice things about him and I wonder if Hinduism hasn't conflated their images a bit.That is a grossly distorted and horribly misunderstood idea of who and what Shiva is, and that his function is wholesale and wanton destruction and/or punishment.
I believe it may have been a Hindu site. I believe it as gone defunct because of warring factions but that was after they had decided that they were a Hindu site so Christians were persona non grata.I'm not aware of Shiva ever doing this sort of thing. Where did you read it or hear it?
One God is just as fictitious as a hundred Gods and Goddesses.Wake up, there is only One.
Oh, yes, Arjuna should fight for Dharma. Then some pep talk from Krishna. To read Gita is one thing and to understand its deeper meaning is another.Krishna points out to Arjuna that he should fight, as regardless everyone will be destroyed in the Mahapralaya anyway (11:32-33).
There can be many reasons why a Christian was a persona non-grata... but that was after they had decided that they were a Hindu site so Christians were persona non grata.
Yeah, they do. Any problem there? It is their God (or Goddess). Don't the Christians too do that?.. he is depicted there with a snake and a trident which in Christian circles makes him more like the Devil. However it did say some nice things about him and I wonder if Hinduism hasn't conflated their images a bit.
Having had first hand experience, there is only one CPU manifesting this reality we exist within....One God is just as fictitious as a hundred Gods and Goddesses.
Tell me about it, the first translator decided to translate the name of Brahman into God, even used the Biblical word Mammon....To read Gita is one thing and to understand its deeper meaning is another.

NDE is like a dream created by excess Carbon-di-oxide in the brain. You take it as truth.Having had first hand experience, there is only one CPU manifesting this reality we exist within ..
Try me.I believe that is true but it may well be that Hindus can't really defend their religion in a debate so have to isolate themselves from the truth. (The monkey with hands over its eyes and ears)
I believe Hindus ought to be interested in the truth even if it differs from their understanding of things. After all I don't go yuck , pizza is bad because it comes from Italians and I am not Italian.
If it wasn't that the things i learned in the experience were outside of my knowledge, and beyond our scientific understanding, I wouldn't take it as truth; yet having examined numerous other accounts, checked many religious texts globally, I've checked the evidence to validate it.You take it as truth.

That isn't true; I've looked at the NDE studies done by NASA, their account of it, was that people had a similar experience to a NDE; yet not exactly the same, as within most people's NDE accounts, there is a clear line to it....You think NDE to be beyond science, I don't.
