  1. Why should anyone be respected just because he is rich or powerful? I'm sorry if I meant that, but that wasn't my intention. I was just saying how should one react when one is getting disrespected by people. What I was TRYING to say which I think you didn't grasp was how would spirituality help in these types of problems.
  2. I got a question to ask you all. How do you react to disrespect? For instance, when talking on the phone with someone like a sales representative or in a store, and he/she starts treating you rudely, what would you do? I feel that human society for the most part runs on human dignity, and without it there would be chaos. So, when people disrespect you directly or indirectly, what's your reaction? For instance, you could be very wealthy, and not knowing who you are, they treat you like dirt for no apparent reason.
  3. In Hinduism, it explains how Guru is one of the most important tools in aiding the aspirant in reaching God. However, I have some questions I would appreciate cleared up. It's said that a Guru can remove bad karma by giving it to God through Diksha or Skaktipaat initiation (correct me if I'm wrong). But isn't the Guru invading the workings of the Cosmic Law? For instance, through the grace of the Guru, a person who in last life killed another human can have its effect negated to the point where the person suffers no punishment. Am I wrong? In Christianity, when one does a sin, the individual goes to church where he is forgiven by the priest. So, in a similar way to the Guru, the priest removes his bad karma. Moreover, it's said through the guidance of a Guru, one can reach God in this life. But, how can one realize God in this life when he still hasn't nullified the effects of his karma.
