    Body Mind and Soul

    Shirshasan is said to be the king of asanas, with enormous health and spiritual benefits. But it is also tbe most hazardous because unless you do it under proper guidance and also follow a very systematic approach, it is a risky asana, and I personally know one person who died of cerebral...

    which religion do u follow or think is best comb. of sprituality ,peace & mediation?

    Some of us? You mean a Hindu? I guess the concept of God could vary between an impersonal and personal, being and non being etc - but I guess proper Hinduism pre supposes acceptance of vedas, which can be relaxed to any beleif in God... BTW, I read recently somewhere on the internet that...

    Ethnocentrism

    Satay, I hope you know that forcible muslim conversions have happened even in the 20th century. In the 19th century, Tippu Sultan's army ran amok in Kerala with the slogan - convert or die! Why do you think Kerala has a 25% muslim population much above the 13% India average? A huge number of...

    Dont you understand this, come on coolbodhi. Whoever makes either non confrontational or pleasing statements on basis of religion are respected. Those come up with harder questions or confrontational arguments and he cannot refute , he dislikes and are called idiotic or foolish. If some...

    And you what happened to them? They were proved that they were wrong by finsihing them off - take the case of Arianism, the case of crusades, take the case of sceintists in the medival periods who spoke against the science in Christianity, and anyone who talked against it were condemned and...

    Just like the one truth of christianity and 19999 denominations of "lies". Where did he say that - he said he needed only God and no need of human saviour (Jesus). As usual, your style of taking things out of context, misquoting etc.

    Well I have a comment here: A close relative of mine ( a Vaishnavite) recently adopted Christianity shocking all her family members who are very orthodox Vaishnavites. On a close enquiry, she mentioned that she was in dire financial crisis and she converted because the missionries offered her...

    A Good Article on Muslims.

    That is what I said - quranic style even if unique, proves nothing to a non muslim. It could just be a creative piece of work. We can show many things that are unique on their own. It just happened that you chose to believe that it is unique, based on your blind faith. A number of intellectuals...

    A Good Article on Muslims.

    The objective challenge is laughable. So you mean to say that if the mightiest wrestler starts claiming that he is God because he is undefeatable, then he is God? All these challenges expose that this God is a human being with pumped up ego to issue challenges to other humans to prove otherwise...

    A Good Article on Muslims.

    If you think divinity is established based on "magic in content", perhaps you are not aware of the sanskrit and some of the literature in it. The authors of such works have never claimed any divinity. If you want I can give you some examples, which perhaps find no equals anywhere in the world...

    Christian Militants

    NFLT is a "political" organization with the aim of creating an independent Christian fundamentalist state of Tripura. Hence there is no question of mixing politics and religion here. It is an organization that wants to setup a Christian theocracy.

    You make me laugh. You know how much opportunity Christianity had in India in the past isn't it? And they have themselves conceded heavy defeat. The British ruled for 300 years, and you Britain is a theocratic state and tried its best to influence India, but dont pretend to look the other way...

    Truth needs no advertisement. Everyone will know about it someday. The proof is the one billion Hindus now with no adverstisement. Christainity's numbers are based on many factors - force, killings, proselityzing, selling religion for monetary deals etc etc. Me? I am not related to ISKCON...

    Why believe in hell?

    Those who beleive that God is a monster and heartless would choose in an eternal hell. In Hinduism, 63 types of hells have been described in the Markandeya Purana, so Hindus do beleive a hell exists. People who do a lot of evil things for which there exist no earthly punishment are supposed...

    Animals

    You mean salvation? Yes, definitely at a future date. Some of us, have progressed from animals and beneath( a micro organism perhaps) . Some of us have started as a man directly. All or most of us have been animals before, in some past birth. Considering the fact that micro organisms and...

    Are you a dictator?

    What nonsense. There is no Hindu temple in Saudi because it is not allowed, not because the Hindus dont go to temples. I would never go to an Islamic nation for these simple reasons, countries that do not respect others.Some Hindus go there because India is a country that cannot provide jobs...

    What Is Wrong With Idol Worship?

    What bible says regarding idols mean nothing to us. They are all valid to people who beleive that it is the infalliable word of God for which there is no proof and for which are enough counter proofs. When Christians cannot challenge the might of Hinduism and its philsopical depth they try to...

    Top Christian Preists want Hindu rituals, Sanskrit, Vedas & Bhagavad-Gita in Church

    400 years of desperate missionary efforts have been repulsed by Dharma traditions. Actually it has worked only in two states - Kerala and Tamil Nadu and parts of the west coast and no where else. 1000 years of "forced conversion" efforts by muslims were repulsed There is no need to speculate...
