Suffering and turmoil befalls a person who thinks he and God are seperate entity. When one merges with the Supreme Brahman one becomes a Mahatma and he sees God in ever living beings. His aura becomes more poweful than any others who think God is somewhere in the heavens. The choice is yours. Do you want to remain a ignorant being seeking God elsewhere or realize that HE is withing reach. Sri Ragavendra, Ramalingam Adikhal, Ramakrishna Pramahamsa, Sidhartha Gauthama Buddha, Shirdi Sai Baba, Manaikavasagar, Thirunauvkarasar and many others are example of human merging with God. They discovered God within them and not else where. The wisdom of truth will not be known to those who live in the dark. Open your mind and heart only than you will see light which burns in you and that light is God who has given you the free will to decide what you want to be. If you want to remain in the dark and take several birth before you discover the real TRUTH or realize it in this birth is you choice. No one can force you to choose. The choice is left to you.

The Paramahamsa Upanishad 1. Narada (Lord of Events) inquired of the Lord of Love: "What is the state of the illumined man?" The Lord replied: "Hard to reach is the state Of the illumined man. Only a few Attain to it. But even one is enough. For he is the pure Self of the Scriptures; He is truly great because he serves me. And I reveal myself through him always." He has renounced all selfish attachments And observes no rites or ceremonies. He has only minimum possessions, And lives his life for the welfare of all. 2. He has no staff nor tuft nor sacred thread. He faces heat and cold, pleasure and pain, Honor and dishonor with equal calm. He is not affected by calumny, Pride, jealousy, status, joy, or sorrow, Greed, anger, or infatuation, Excitement, egoism, or other goads; For he knows he is neither body nor mind. Free from the sway of doubt and false knowledge He lives united with the Lord of Love. Who is ever serene, immutable, Indivisible, the source of all joy And wisdom. The Lord is his true home, His pilgrim's tuft of hair, his sacred thread; For he has entered the unitive state. 3. Having renounced every selfish desire, He has found his rest in the Lord of Love. Wisdom is the staff that supports him now. Those who take a mendicant's staff while they Are still at the mercy of their senses Cannot escape enormous suffering. The illumined man knows this truth of life. 4. For him the universe is his garment And the Lord not separate from himself. He offers no ancestral oblations; He praises nobody, blames nobody, Is never dependent on anyone. He has no need to repeat the mantram, No more need to practice meditation. The world of change and changeless reality Are one to him, for he sees all in God. 5. The aspirant who is seeking the Lord Must free himself from selfish attachments To people, money, and possessions. When his mind sheds every selfish desire, He becomes free from the duality Of pleasure and pain and rules his senses. No more is he capable of ill will; No more is he subject to elation, For his senses come to rest in the Self. Entering into the unitive state, He attains the goal of evolution. Truly he attains the goal of evolution. O M shanti shanti shanti

Dear Raguraman, Forgive me if I give you the notion that I hate Vaishnava Acharyas. I hate no acharayas. Why would I hate them? Did they deprive me of my life for me to hate them. You have misunderstood me. When there are people who condemn Gandhiji for his sacrifice he made to bring independance to India surely a true Indian would not stand to such insults. I respect SP for his untiring work he had done during his life time to spread the teaching of the holy Gita but he fail to teach his followers to be respectful to followers of other dieties. The HK's may not call themselc=ves Hindus but we consider them as one and KC as a branch of Hinsuism. I am a devotee of all Hindu Gods as I see them as one and the same. The Supreme Brahman is he menefestation of all forms and name does not matter for me. But I have my own ishta devata and she is Mother Durga. For me all powers come from her but do I speak of her greatness here. No, I do not because I know there are others who think great of their own personal God like Krishna for Vaishnava. To me it make no difference. As for me I am a Hindu and I know the essance of Hinduism. Do not say I hate Vaisnavas coz as far as I am concern they are Hindus too. But I find that they do not want to be in the fold and like Pakistan they wish to be seperated from the main body. Once again I am sorry if I have offended you in any way. The truth is more important and I will speak my mind if there is any false accusation about Gandghiji although I was not born in India yet I have great respect for the mahatma.

A great soul is one who sacrifice his life for the poor and meek. Tell me what Srila Prabhupada sacrificed for? I respect Srila Prabhupada for his [only] effort in preaching the Gita to the westerners. Besides that he has nothing great to be proud of. There were masters before him who had odne the same. He was only following their footsteps. Do you know about Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami of Kauai? Kauai's Hindu Monastery is also home to Himalayan Academy, Hindu Heritage Endowment founded by Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami (below) (1927-2001) and is the home of Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami and the order of 21 swamis, yogis and sadhakas from six nations and is the Theological Seminary for Saiva Siddhanta Church housed on 458 acres of tropical lushness in Kauai, Hawaii. Right in the midst of the monastery complex is the renowned "Kadaval Nataraj Temple" where an exquisite six-foot tall, 150-year-old bronze image of Lord Nataraja is enshrined. Hindu pilgrims have been coming to the temple from around the world for over 30 years, to worship and seek audience and darshan with the Guru Mahasannidhanam. Saiva Siddhanta Church, founded in 1949, was incorporated under the laws of the United States of America in the State of California on December 30, 1957, and received recognition of its US Internal Revenue tax exempt status as a church on February 12, 1962. Its USA employer identification number is 94-6108645. Among America's oldest Hindu institutions, it established its international headquarters on Kauai, Hawaii on February 5, 1970. From this Garden Island in the Pacific Ocean, northernmost of the Hawaiian chain that forms the world's most remote land mass, the Church broadly serves the one billion-strong Hindu faith (fully one-sixth of the human family). The Church's ministry is dedicated to nurturing the membership and local missions in four continents and to serving, primarily through publications, the community of Hindus throughout the world. In August of 1986, the World Religious Parliament in New Delhi honored Subramuniyaswami as one of five Hindu spiritual leaders outside of India who had most dynamically promoted Sanatana Dharma in the past 25 years. He was given the title Jagadacharya, "World Teacher." In April of 1988, he was selected to represent Hinduism at the five-day Global Forum of Spiritual and Parliamentary Leaders for Human Survival, held in England at Oxford University, and again in Moscow from January 11 to 15, 1990; and in Brazil, June 5-7, 1992. At Chicago's historic centenary Parliament of the World's Religions in September, 1993, he was elected to the Presidents' Assembly, a core group of 25 men and women representing the world's faiths. Once in a while on this Earth there arises a soul who, by living his tradition rightly and wholly, perfects his path and becomes a light to the world. Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami was such a being, a living example of awakening and wisdom, a leader recognized worldwide as one of Hinduism's foremost ministers. In 1947, as a young man of 20, he journeyed to India and Sri Lanka and two years later was initiated into sannyasa by the renowned siddha yogi and worshiper of Siva, Jnanaguru Yogaswami of Sri Lanka, regarded as one of the 20th century's most remarkable mystics. Gurudeva was lauded as one of the strictest and most traditional gurus in the world. His Hindu Church nurtures its membership and local missions on five continents. The Academy serves, personally and through its magazine, books, courses and travel/study programs, serious seekers and Hindus of all denominations. Gurudeva's mission, received from his satguru, was to protect, preserve and promote the Saivite Hindu religion as expressed through its three pillars: temples, satgurus and scripture. That mission is now carried forward by his monastic and family communities. The congregation of Saiva Siddhanta Church is a disciplined, global fellowship of family initiates, monastics and students who follow the sadhana marga, the path of inner effort, yogic striving and personal transformation. Gurudeva was the hereditary guru of 2.5 million Sri Lankan Hindus. His various institutions form a Jaffna-Tamil-based organization which has branched out from his Sri Subramuniya Ashram in Alaveddy to meet the needs of the growing Hindu diaspora of this century. He also established a seven-acre monastery in Mauritius, which includes a public Spiritual Park. Gurudeva gently oversaw more than 50 independent temples worldwide. Missionaries and teachers within the family membership provide counseling and classes in Saivism for children, youth and adults. Then in 1995 it bestowed on him the title of Dharmachakra for his remarkable publications. The Global Forum of Spiritual and Parliamentary Leaders for Human Survival chose Subramuniyaswami as a Hindu representative at its unique conferences. Thus, at Oxford, England, in 1988, Moscow in 1990 and Rio de Janiero in 1992, he joined hundreds of religious, political and scientific leaders from all countries to discuss privately, for the first time, the future of human life on this planet. At Chicago's historic centenary Parliament of the World's Religions in September, 1993, Gurudeva was elected one of three presidents, along with His Holiness Swami Chidananda Saraswati of the Rishikesh-based Divine Life Society and Kerala's Ammachi, Mata Amritanandamayi Ma, to represent Hinduism at the prestigious Presidents' Assembly, a core group of 25 men and women voicing the needs of world faiths. In April of 1999 Gurudeva lead 45 spiritual aspirants on an Innersearch from Vancouver to Anchorage, Alaska. Their ship, the MS Noordam, journeyed for 7 days and nights as they studied meditation and the mystical life together, explored the glaciers and redefined the cruise experience along the way. In Anchorage, Gurudeva founded the first Hindu temple in that state, calling together the native American Indian leaders to participate in the event. He also initiated a powerful series of book signings in California, Washington and Alaska, introducing his newest legacy book, Merging with Siva, to thousands of seekers. In August he traveled to Malaysia and Mauritius, where he met with the nation's leaders on several family-related topics, opened his Spiritual Park for 3,000 special guests, spent precious time with his Church members and continued the dynamic book signings, this time adding his newest book, Weaver's Wisdom, to the list. In March and April of 2000 he lead another Innersearch Travel-Study program to the Caribbean, visiting six nations with 53 of his devotees and meeting the Hindu leadership in that remote part of the world, with special events among 4,500 Hindus who came to honor him in Trinidad. In August of 2001 Gurudeva took 72 devotees on an incredible journey through Northern Europe, founding new Hindu temples along the way and visiting the Tamil communities in a dozen nations. It was a fitting end to his remarkable life. Just before departing for the European Innersearch, he completed his last legacy book, ''Living with Siva.'' Only weeks after returning from that dynamic odyssey, he attained his Maha Samadhi. Gurudeva was known to the end for spending personal time with new members, island visitors who pilgrimaged to his sacred home on Kauai and new young monks who have come to the monastery to give their life in selfless service and the Great Search for God within man. All of his work and mission, his amazing vision and all-encompassing projects now go forward under the able guidance of his successor, Bodhinatha. Aum Namasivaya! There is more about the Satguru but I think this will suffice to make you understand who else should be called mahatma beside Gandhiji.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY GOD? WHAT ARE THE EVIDENCES FOR THE (OMNI) PRESENCE OF GOD? WHAT PREVENTS US FROM REALISING GOD'S PRESENCE? God, to me, is the infinite Being who is immanent in everyone and everything and who transcends everyone and every­thing in the universe; He (or She if you prefer) is thus omni­present; and He is also omniscient and omnipotent. This life and the worlds we see are the play or display of His infinite powers and potenials; He is the Original Creator, Sustainer and Destroyer of the worlds; He is the Director of the play of Life and Dispenser of the results of players. He is formless and limitless but can assume any number of forms and limitations. He is the eternal "I" hiding behind numerous "i"s in bodies, minds, etc. Indeed, God = Man - (false) ego, as Baba has said! He is free and so has given the individual beings who are derived from Him, freewill. Given this freewill, Beings (known as jivas in samskrit) begin to play the Game of Life and become responsible for all their actions (which are fol­lowed by appropriate reactions as the Rule of the Game re­quires). If you identify yourself with Him, you enjoy the Game as the Inventor of a Game or as the spectator of a Game enjoys it. But if you have forgotten Him by identifying yourself with your Role in the Game or with your Body-Mind-Intelli­gence, you may be pleased or pained alternately as the Game proceeds in your favour or against your wishes. When the pleasure-pain cycle fatigues you, you seek release from the Role. But from one Role to another, you alternate and again become tired. Now, God appearing differ­ent from you, understands your agony and slowly makes you realise that you are not the Role but the Role-player, that you are not the body or mind or the intelligence but the one who is using them. At last you become aware who you really are-and there is a big merry laugh! The roles, the pleasures and pains have been self-imposed for the bliss of it! If you are like the Prisoner in a Jail bound by the results of your actions, you are said to be a bonded Being. But if you are like the Jail Superintendent, you are also in Jail most of the time, but free to leave it when you like (except for the sake of doing your duty voluntarily accepted by you), you are said to be a liberated-in-life person, a Jivan Mukta! As a Mukta or liberated person you are enjoying life! As a Bonded being, you don't! The Evidences for the omni presence of God are: (i) Consider the movement of planets and the earth in space: What a precision! What an accurate maintenance of distances, speeds etc.! If a plane or a rocket moves like that in the sky or space, you know that an intelligent man is in the pilot's seat or that some very intelligent man is remote-controlling it. But if a planet is moving, will you say it is an accident? Can't we infer the presence of a Super-intelligent Being behind that? (ii) Consider what Cressy Morrison, a Scientist seems to have written many years ago: The Sun to Earth distance is approximately 9x107 miles; if it is less, we will be roasted; if it is more, we will freeze! Similarly the Moon to Earth distance is approx. 2x105 miles; if it is less, the ocean waves will rise up so high that we will all be under water! Again, if the Earth's Crust had been 10 feet thicker, it has been estimated that Oxygen would not have been available in air and there would have been no life on earth! Similarly if the sea had been deeper by some feet, Carbon dioxide would have been absorbed by it and plants could not have grown and Oxygen would not have been available! Think again of the eel which swims to Bermuda even if it is born near Europe! Who taught it all that? Think of the Tarantula (which exists in USA in deserts etc.) which seems to be specifically created for the pepsis to lay its eggs on, after anesthetisation and used as the food for the larvae! (If killed instead of being anesthetised, it would decay and be not available as food!). Again, it seems that in Australia people once used cactus fences; their terrible propagation rate however became a horrible problem. It could not be checked by chemicals etc.etc. Then, a specific Bacteria was found to exist in Nature to eat the Cacti away! It was imported-it killed the Cacti and became extinct itself! What accurate specificity! What a balance! And if someone says it is all just an accident in Nature, then Shake­speare's plays are accidents too? A computer can write them? Ha! As a scientifically trained person, I believe it is not at all scientific to say that there is no super-intelligent omnipresent being behind all this! We see Atomic spectral lines and deduce the electron configurations in atoms. We observe some reactions and their rates and deduce their mechanisms. Using the same sort of reasoning, we can deduce the omni­presence of a Being behind all these phenomena! What Prevents us from Realising God's presence? What prevents us from realising this is our total dependence on our senses, instruments and our minds. No, Sir! That is not enough! Is Newtonian Mechanics enough to understand sub-atomic phenomena? We know that we have to resort to quantum mechanics. Are ears, noses, skin and tongue capable of seeing colours?! Only the eyes can perceive colours! So too, God cannot be perceived by senses and the instru­ments (which are extensions of the senses) or by the mind! Only Intuition or Insight can perceive God! This is present in all of us but because most of us do not use it, it tends to atrophy! How to activate this faculty of Intuition and Insight? If you like I will use a simile to help you to understand it: Think of a Cinema Theatre where a morning show or Noon show is on. To see the picture on the screen, (i) you have to get the ticket, (ii) the doors must be closed enough (iii) no strong lights must be on, inside; and (iv) no loud talking must be done. The Human body is like that Theatre. The Screen is the Intuition. The picture is Insight. The ticket is Guru or God's Grace . The doors are the senses which must be suffi­ciently controlled! The inside lights are thoughts which must be controlled or avoided! Loud Talk is Excessive Desires! There must be a ceiling on Desires! So, if you do all that, by the Grace of the Guru-God, you can have intuition and insight. The so-called Vedas are based on this only. By intuition and insight only the Vedic Seer-Saint has sung: "I know Him, the greatest Lord of all! He shines like the sun (in the sky of my Insight) beyond the darkness ( of a closed Mind and limited senses)! He has become or made all that has form and name! Through His creation that can be observed, He is showing His presence, Power and Glory!"

Many are the gurus who are proficient to the utmost in Vedas and Shastras; but rare is the guru who has attained to the supreme Truth. Many are the gurus on earth who give what is other than the Self; but rare is the guru who brings to light the Atman. Many are the gurus who rob the disciple of his wealth; but rare is the guru who removes the disciple's afflictions. Many are they who are given to the discipline and conduct according to caste, stage, and family; but he who is devoid of all volition is a guru rare to find. He is the guru by whose very contact there flows the supreme bliss; the intelligent man shall choose such a one as the guru and no other. 22. Hinduism. Kularnava Tantra 13

Prabhupada may have mastered the Gita but he has no ability to see the wisdom of Gandhi. He did not knight himself but was called Mahatma by the people of India. If not for him India would not have got her independence before the other nation under Britsh rule. What did Parabhupada did to gain the freedom of India? What did he do the stop the blood bath between the Muslims and Hindus? But Gandhi did by hunger strike, by going to prison and by getting killed by the same Hindus he helped to save from the British. Ungreatful Hindu fanatics killed the man who freed India. Giving independence to Pakistan was a wise decision at the time. If he had not agreed can you foresee what would have happened after independence than? It is easy to pass remark on such a great soul of the world without considering the time and situation but in practical could any of you have done what Gandhi did? The Koran does not discriminate or speak evil of othe faiths. It is the hadis, please do not just make your own conclution. The Koran and the Hadis are two different books. Can you quote from the Koran in which part it says kill all non believers? I know and I have the Kopran and Hadis with me. Most muslims follow the Hadis of Al' Bukhari and in it you will read all that is said about Islam. I did post the whole script here sometime back but was removed by the admin. You must be out of your mind if you say Gandhi was the cause of the division.

It has been said a million times by great seers but people have their own notion. For ages the scriptures had been misinterpreted by many for what they perceive. Here we see the KC's being confused by their masters and the Vaishnavas and Shivaits being confused by their teachers and so are the Christians, Jews and Muslims. Even the Buddhist too misuderstood the teachings of the Buddha. They were strictly told not to make him an idol of worship but we see his instructions were not heeded. So many are living with confused minds and are confusing those who speak the truth. But do not worry time will heal. Eventualy they will realize the mistake. As far as the wise ones they should keep mum and follow the sequence and let nature change the ways of the ignorant.

‘Unique’ India is ‘shining’ Author: A Staff Reporter Publication: Times of Oman February 18, 2004 URL: http://www.timesofoman.com/newsdetails.asp?newsid=51131&pn=local Do you know any country where a Hindu is prime minister, a Muslim is president and a Christian is defence minister? An eminent scientist posed this question to a packed hall of eager audience here yesterday. With that, Dr Gopalakrishnan, scientist at the CSIR, and honorary director of the Indian Institute of Scientific Heritage, was concluding his speech on the ‘Views of Dr A.P.J. Abdul Kalam on Indian heritage’. The crowd in front of him did not have to scratch their heads for the answer. They might have wracked their brains if the question had the word “any country other than India”. And the fact of the matter is that they would not have come up with an answer even after many hours! “Yes, India is the only country in the world where a Hindu prime minister (A.B. Vajpayee), a Muslim president (Dr A.P.J. Abdul Kalam) and a Christian Defence Minister (George Fernandes) are running the affairs of the nation with a unity of purpose,” said Dr Gopalakrishnan, adding: “India gave the message of unity in diversity to the world... The Vedic message given by India is still spreading the message of love, help, cooperation, rational thinking, scientific vision, patriotic mission, rational spirituality ...” Elaborating Dr Kalam’s views and message for the Indians, the scientist stressed Dr Kalam’s words that “India is the country which respected the peace and freedom of each and every individual and nation. Many countries invaded India for many centuries; Indians had the bitter experience of massive destruction of wealth owing to these invasions. But India never invaded other countries. Indians never destroyed the wealth or looted any other countries. We always sent the message of peace all over the world. This is because we respect the freedom of others. This is our heritage.” Dr Gopalakrisnan said modern science had its roots and branches in India, and called for all-round development which is the need of the hour. “India has the science and technologies. Our ancient scientists had made great achievements in modern science and technologies. The mathematical and astronomical theorems of Aryabhata, Bhaskara, Vateswara, Madhava and many other ancient Indian scientists, developed centuries ago, are great contributions of ancient India to the modern world. Nagarjuna’s contribution through chemistry books stand as a great example on the unique subject of applied inorganic chemistry.” Science and technology was not an alien subject for Indians. Using the heritage of the scientific and technological knowledge existed in India, we have to build up a greater modern India. To bring home this point, Dr Gopalakrishnan quoted Dr Abdul Kalam who had always said: “For 50 years we have been a developing nation. It is time we see ourselves as a developed nation. ...We are among the top five nations of the world in terms of GDP; we have 10 per cent annual growth rate in most areas; we have to have self confidence for informing the world that we are a developed nation, a self-reliant and self-assured nation.” The great scientist-turned-president has no doubt whatsoever that “unless India stands up to the world, no one will respect us. Only strength respects strength”. And that is why Dr Kalam urges Indians that “we must be strong in all spheres ... we must become an economic power ... we must be powerful enough to protect our nation.” The great missile man of India gained experience in research and development in different branches of science and technology from “three great minds — Dr Vikram Sarabhai of the Department of Space; Prof. Satish Dhawan and Dr Brahma Prakash, the father of Indian nuclear materials.” The scientific contributions of Dr Kalam during the 20 years of his service with the Indian Space Research Organisation in developing the Satellite Launching Vehicle (SLV), the achievements in developing 23 types of missiles while working in the Defence Research and Development Organisation and the achievements of nuclear tests on May 11 and 13 are, in Dr Kalam’s own words, the “great milestones in my life”. Dr Gopalakrishna said Dr Kalam always advocated the utilisation of scientific achievements and innovations for the betterment of the common man. Science should always help the needy, poor, weak, in all walks of life. Dr Kalam demonstrated this by utilising space alloys for making artificial limbs for polio-crippled youths. Dr Kalam has reservations on the Indian media. He exhorts the media to be positive. India is a nation with great achievements, strengths and merits. These positive aspects are to be brought to light, instead of printing always the negatives. Indian achievements are worth projecting to the world and Dr Kalam urges the media to focus on them. “We are the first in milk production; we are number one in remote-sensing satellite; we are the second largest producer of wheat; we are the second largest producer of rice...” Dr Gopalakrishanan said the president always concluded his message saying: “You must proclaim India is not an under-developed nation; it is a highly developed nation.” The president also takes a dig at those Indians who always feel proud of the greatness of “the countries they visit; they appreciate others’ discipline, hard work, etc., etc.” But these positives seen in other countries are to be translated to Indian life also. “Learning to follow the rules and respecting the country’s heritage are inevitably important for progress. We expect the government to do everything for us.” Dr Gopalakrishan exhorted the gathering, quoting the words of Dr Kalam, that there need to be a change of mentality — the mentality to “wait for a Mr Clean to come along and work miracles for us with a majestic sweep of his hand or we leave the country and run away”. “We expect the government to clean up everything, after electing them to power. But we are not going to stop chucking the garbage all over the place, nor are we going to stop to pick up a stray piece of paper and throw it in the bin.” Like former US president John F. Kennedy, President Kalam also urges the people of India to “ask what we can do for India and do what has to be done to make India what America and other western countries are today. Let us do what India needs from us.” Dr Kalam, with a missionary spirit of taking science to the forefront and with the spirit of taking India to the forefront of the world within the next 15 years, looks forward to making the nation as the most developed country by 2020, converting India into a knowledge-based country. The tremendous potential of youths; the fast developing infrastructure; the peaceful atmosphere; the enthusiasm prevailing in the field of process and product development and the ultra modern technology with a sound background of the international language, English, — all these are among the advantages of India, and Dr Gopalakrishnan quoted Dr Abdul Kalam’s words to bring home his point that “India is changing; we have to make the world understand the greatness of our motherland.”

It is therefore necessary for me once for all distinctly to give my meaning of sanatana Hinduism. The word sanatana I use in its natural sense. I call myself a sanatani Hindu, because, 1. I believe in the Vedas, the Upanishads, the Puranas and allthat goes by the name of Hindu scriptures, and therefore in avatars and rebirth, 2. I believe in the varnashrama dharma in a sense in my opinion strictly Vedic but not in its present popular and crude sense, 3. I believe in the protection of the cow in its much larger sense than the popular, 4. I do not disbelieve in idol-worship. The reader will note that I have purposely refrained from using the word divine origin in reference to the Vedas or any other scriptures. For I do not believe in the exclusive divinity of the Vedas. I believe the Bible, the Koran, and the Zend-Avesta to be as much divinely inspired as the Vedas. My belief in the Hindu scriptures does not require me to accept every word and every verse as divinely inspired. Nor do I claim to have any first-hand knowledge of these wonderful books. But I do claim to know and feel the truths of the essential teaching of the scriptures. I decline to be bound by any interpretation, however learned it may be, if it is repugnant to reason or moral sense. I do most emphatically repudiate the claim (if they advance any such) of the present Shankaracharyas and shastris to give a correct interpretation of the Hindu scriptures. On the contrary I believe, that our present knowledge of these books is in a most chaotic state. I believe implicitly in the Hindu aphorism, that no one truly knows the Shastras who has not attained perfection in innocence (ahimsa), truth (satya) and self-control (brahmacharya) and who has not renounced all acquisition or possession of wealth. I believe in the institution of gurus, but in this age millions must go without a guru, because it is a rare thing to find a combination of perfect purity and perfect learning. But one need not despair of ever knowing the truth of one’s religion, because the fundamentals of Hinduism as of every great religion are unchangeable, and easily understood. Every Hindu believes in God and his oneness, in rebirth and salvation. But that which distinguishes Hinduism from every other religion is its cow-protection, more than its varnashrama. Varnashrama is, in my opinion, inherent in human nature, and Hinduism has simply reduced it to a science. It does attach to birth. A man cannot change his varna by choice. Not to abide by one’s varna is to disregard the law of heredity. The division, however, into innumerable castes is an unwarranted liberty taken with the doctrine. The four divisions are all-sufficing. I do not believe, that inter-dining or even inter-marriage necessarily deprives a man of his status that his birth has given him. The four divisions define a man’s calling, they do not restrict or regulate social intercourse. The divisions define duties, they confer no privileges. It is, I hold, against the genius of Hinduism to arrogate to oneself a higher status or assign to another a lower. All are born to serve God’s creation, a Brahmin with his knowledge, a Kshatriya with his power of protection, a Vaisya with his commercial ability and a Sudra with his bodily labour. This however does not mean that a Brahmin for instance is absolved from bodily labour, or the duty of protecting himself and others. His birth makes a Brahmin predominantly a man of knowledge, the fittest by heredity and training to impart it to others. There nothing, again, to prevent the Sudra from acquiring all the knowledge he wishes. Only, he will best serve with his body and need not envy others their special qualities for service. But a Brahmin who claims superiority by right of knowledge falls and has no knowledge. And so with the others who pride themselves their special qualities. Varnashrama is self-restraint and conservation and economy of energy. Though therefore varnashrama is not affected by inter-dining or inter-marriage, Hinduism does most emphatically discourage inter-dining and inter-marriage between divisions. Hinduism reached the highest limit of self-restraint. It is undoubtedly a religion of renunciation of tile flesh so that the spirit may be set free. It is no part of a Hindu’s duty to dine with his son. And by restricting his choice of a bride to a particular group, he exercises rare self-restraint. Hinduism does not regard a married state as by any means essential for salvation. Marriage is a “fall” even as birth is a “fall”. Salvation is freedom from birth and hence death also. Prohibition against inter-marriage and inter-dining is essential for a rapid evolution of the soul. But this self-denial is no test of varna. A Brahmin may remain a Brahmin, though he may dine with his Sudra brother, if he has not left off his duty of service by knowledge. It follows from what I have said above, that restraint in matters of marriage and dining is not based upon notions of superiority. A Hindu who refuses to dine with another from a sense of superiority misrepresents his dharma. Unfortunately, today Hinduism seems to consist merely in eating and not-eating. Once I horrified a pious Hindu by taking toast at a Mussulman’s house. I saw, that he was pained to see me pouring milk into a cup handed by a Mussulman friend, but his anguish knew no bounds when he saw me taking toast at the Mussulman’s hands. Hinduism is in danger of losing its substance if it resolves itself into a matter of elaborate rules as to what and with whom to eat. Abstemiousness from intoxicating drinks and drugs, and from all kinds of foods, especially meat, is undoubtedly a great aid to the evolution of the spirit, but it is by no means an end in itself. Many a man eating meat and with everybody but living in the fear of God is nearer his freedom than a man religiously abstaining from meat and many other things, but blaspheming God in every one of his acts. The central fact of Hinduism however is cow-protection. Cow-protection to me is one of the most wonderful phenomena in human evolution. It takes the human being beyond his species. The cow to me means the entire sub-human world. Man through the cow is enjoined to realize his identity with all that lives. Why the cow was selected for apotheosis is obvious to me. The cow was in India the best companion. She was the giver of plenty. Not only did she give milk, but she also made agriculture possible. The cow is a poem of pity. One reads pity in the gentle animal. She is the mother to millions of Indian mankind. Protection of the cow means protection of the whole dumb creation of God. The ancient seer, whoever he was, began with the cow. The appeal of the lower order of creation is all the more forcible because it is speechless. Cow-protection is the gift of Hinduism to the world. And Hinduism will live so long as there are Hindus to protect the cow. The way to protect is to die for her. It is a denial of Hinduism in and ahimsa to kill a human being to protect a cow. Hindus are enjoined to protect the cow by their tapasya, by self-purification, by self-sacrifice. The present-day cow-protection has degenerated into a perpetual feud with the Mussulmans, whereas cow-protection means conquering Mussulmans by our love. A Mussulman friend sent me some time ago a book detailing the inhumanities practised by us on the cow and her progeny. How we bleed her to take the last drop of milk from her, how we starve her to emaciation, how we ill-treat the calves, how we deprive them of their portion of milk, how cruelly we treat the oxen, how we castrate them, how we beat them, how we overload them. If they had speech, they would bear witness to our crimes against them which would stagger the world. By every act of cruelty to our cattle, we disown God and Hinduism. I do not know that the condition of the cattle in any other part of the world is so bad as in unhappy India. We may not blame the Englishman for this. We may not plead poverty in our defence. Criminal negligence is the only cause of the miserable condition of our cattle. Our pinjrapoles, though they are an answer to our instinct of mercy, are a clumsy demonstration of its execution. Instead of being model dairy farms and great profitable national institutions, they are merely depots for receiving decrepit cattle. Hindus will be judged not by their tilaks, not by the correct chanting of mantras, not by their pilgrimages, not by their most punctilious observance of caste rules but by their ability to protect the cow. Whilst professing the religion of cow-protection, we have enslaved the cow and her progeny, and have become slaves ourselves. It will now be understood why I consider myself a sanatani Hindu. I yield to none in my regard for the cow. I have made the Khilafat cause my own, because I see that through its preservation full protection can be secured for the cow. I do not ask my Mussulman friends to save the cow in consideration of my service. My prayer ascends daily to God Almighty, that my service of a cause I hold to be just may appear so pleasing to Him, that He may change the hearts of the Mussulmans, and fill them with pity for their Hindu neighbours and make them save the animal the latter hold dear as life itself. I can no more describe my feeling for Hinduism than for my own wife. She moves me as no other woman in the world can. Not that she has no faults. I dare say she has many more than I see myself. But the feeling of an indissoluble bond is there. Even so I feel for and about Hinduism with all its faults and limitations. Nothing elates me so much as the music of the Gita or the Ramayana by Tulsidas, the only two books in Hinduism I may be said to know. When I fancied I was taking my last breath, the Gita was my solace. I know the vice that is going on today in all the great Hindu shrines, but I love them in spite of their unspeakable failings. There is an interest which I take in them and which I take in no other. I am a reformer through and through. But my zeal never takes me to the rejection of any of the essential things of Hinduism. I have said I do not disbelieve in idol-worship. An idol does not excite any feeling of veneration in me. But I think that idol-worship is part of human nature. We hanker after symbolism. Why should one be more composed in a church than elsewhere? Images are an aid to worship. No Hindu considers an image to he God. I do not consider idol-worship a sin. It is clear from the foregoing, that Hinduism is not an exclusiv religion. In it there is room for the worship of all the prophets of the world. It is not a missionary religion in the ordinary sense of the term. It has no doubt absorbed many tribes in its fold, but this absorption has been of an evolutionary imperceptible character. Hinduism tells everyone to worship God according to his own faith or dharma, and so it lives at peace with all the religions. That being my conception of Hinduism, I have never been able to reconcile myself to untouchability. I have always regarded it as an excrescence. It is true that it has been handed down to us from generations, but so are many evil practices even to this day. I should be ashamed to think that dedication of girls to virtual prostitution was a part of Hinduism. Yet it is practised by Hindus in many parts of India. I consider it positive irreligion to sacrifice goats to Kali and do not consider it a part of Hinduism. Hinduism is a growth of ages. The very name, Hinduism, was given to the religion of the people of Hindustan by foreigners. There was no doubt at one time sacrifice of animals offered in the name of religion. But it is not religion, much less is it Hindu religion. And so also it seems to me, that when cow-protection became an article of faith with our ancestors, those who persisted in eating beef were excommunicated. The civil strife must have been fierce. Social boycott was applied not only to the recalcitrants, but their sins were visited upon their children also. The practice which had probably its origin in good intentions hardened into usage, and even verses crept in our sacred books giving the practice a permanence wholly undeserved and still less justified. Whether my theory is correct or not, untouchability is repugnant to reason and to the instinct of mercy, pity or love. A religion that establishes the worship of the cow cannot possibly countenance or warrant a cruel and inhuman boycott of human beings. And I should be content to be torn to pieces rather than disown the suppressed classes. Hindus will certainly never deserve freedom, nor get it if they allow their noble religion to be disgraced by the retention of the taint of untouchability. And as I love Hinduism dearer than life itself, the taint has become for me an intolerable burden. Let us not deny God by denying to a fifth of our race the right of association on an equal footing. M. K. Gandhi, Young India, 6-10-1921

<false... every name is a different person and a different destination. Krsna does not cheat us, if we want krsna .. krsna comes. Bhakti means love, if i love my wife it does not mean that i love also your one> You are ignorant of the TRUTH. Path to God is many and experience and proves are many. The path by Adthi Shankara was different but the ultimate goal is one. The path taken my Swami Ramakrishna was different from Adthi Shankara but the ultimate goal is one. The path Buddha took was different but the goal was the same. Bakthi is love and you can show it not only by loving Krishna but by any other means. Love for your fellow human, service to mankind and caring for the needy is all love which in turn will ultimately goes to the Lord. You are confused because you are travelin in one track which is dangerous. Islam is one track and see how much problems it creates not only to its followers but to the whole world. Your love for your wife would be different from lovinbg my wife until and unless you have ulterior motive coz my love for your wife would be love for another being. <not exact, some of these forms you have said are god, some other are not god, some one is the supreme personality of god> Please define who is and who is not. As I have said ignorance can blind a person of reasoning. All forms of God came from one source and that is Brahman or the Supreme Power which the wise one call it SAKTHI. And sakthi has another meaning which is SHE. You need to dwell more on it before you make any conclution. <our mainstream simply seems that you do not want that people go deep in spirituality but remain superficial thinking that everything's the same> What is superficial thinking and what is sprituality? Do you mean that going to the temples I have mentioned is suoperficial? Please tell that to the millions who congregate at these temple day in and day out. Do you insist that these people close the temples? What is your basis? Do not say what you do not understand. <so what do you want to do with this union if you will get it? and union on wich basis? simply to adopt a meaningless name?> Do you know the base on what Hinduism has existed for thousands of years? Untity and understanding among the worshipers of these Godheads. I think you are asking for the clash of the Titans among the followers of Krishna, Vishnu, Shiva and Murugan. You have a disturbed mind that needs help. Please seek the help of a divine Guru.

It can be Krishan, Shiva, Sakthi, Ganapathy or Murugan. It does not matter what nama but pue bakthi must be there in order to receive his grace. Do be like the Christians or Muslims who say only utter he name of Jesus/Allah. Hinduism is unique and gives the freedom to accept any form of the Supreme. Hindus are not barred from entering any temples be it Krishna, Vengatachalabathi or Shiva, Aghilandeshwari or Murugan, Ganapathy or Perumal. They are God in different manifestation. Some Hindus would like to segregate themselves from the mainstream which would only divide furher the unity of Hndus.

But in whose heart is evil playing now? Did you consider why innocent people are dragged into this war? Fear is not only in your heart but in every living beings. The tiger fears when man encroaches into its territory, the snake fears when man digs into its hole, the elephant the largest mammal in the world fears when porchers approach it and each of us fear when our instinct tell us thers is danger. So, it is natural for eveyone to fear. But at the same time when your country is in danger of being attacked by enemy forces than you must put your fear aside and be prepared to sacrifice your life to defend your country against the enemy. You may be a faggot but that should not be the reason for you to hide your head in the toilet bowl. If it is you fate to die no one can stop it. You will only die once at least die a heroic death. From the beginning Islam had shown to be a hosile religion that brought extreme violence against non Muslims around the world. Afghanistan, Persia, Spain, India and many other countries had lost their own culture because of Islam. If Islam is a peaceful religion than where did all the suicide bombers come from? Are they Christians, Hindus, Bhais, Buddhist, Jains, Jews or Toaist? Please tell me who are they and what religion they belong to. The WTC was a god example and Osama Bin Laden is evil. As long as Islam is here the world would not experience real peace.

I am the conscience in the heart of all creatures I am their beginning, their being, their end; I am the mind of the senses, I am the radiant sun among lights; I am the song in sacred lore; I am the king of deities; I am the priest of great seers; Of words, I am the eternal OM, the prayer of sacrifices I am the measure of what endures I am the chief of divine sages, leader of celestial musicians. I am the recluse philosopher among saints. I am the thunderbolt among weapons among cattle, the Kamadhenu I am the procreative god of love I am the endless cosmic serpent, the lord of all sea creatures; I am the chief of the ancestral fathers. I am gracious Siva among howling storms. Of restraints, I am death, Of measures, I am time. I am the purifying wind. I am the cleansing Ganga Of sciences, I am the science of the self; I am the dispute of orators. I am victory and resolve, the lucidity of lucid men. I am the brilliance of fiery heroes. I am the morality of ambitious men; I am the silence of the mystery I am the seed of all creatures I am the death destroyer of all. -- Shrimad Bhagavad Gita
