HINDUISM NEVER FACES THREAT. TRUTH IS STRENGTH

[Guest guest]

OMNAMONARAYANAYA

Dear beloved sadhaks ,

                                 Hinduism is unique among religions in that it

is never truly at odds with competing single book based nascent overzealous

religions . While the proponents of these  religions engage in warfare against

members of competing religions from time to time, Hinduism itself absorbs

conflicting religions like Buddhism,Jainism,Sikhism et al  rather than competing

with them.  The word  " Satan "   is a deliberate  mi spelling of " Sanatan " or

orthodox . Any ancient orthodox belief or practice in Hinduism is  satanic in

other faiths .  But Hinduism is malleable. It is amenable to change. Beliefs and

practices change with times. Satanic sati , bride burning ,dowry,child

marriages  and forced  celibacy widows  is slowly but surely disappearing  in

Hinduism with only Hindu effort. The so called satanic   celebrations and

festivals looked down upon by other religions are transformed into Hindu

celebrations honoring God  and this is how Forest Goddess,Rain God,Sun,Moon

Wealth Goddess, Knowledge Goddess  all become Hindu. No other religion shows

this much tolerance. Thus, the festival that the peasant classes enjoy continues

uninterrupted and the meaning behind the festival remains largely unchanged ,

only the name of the God or Goddess being celebrated changes say Lakshmi

pooja,Satyanarayana vrat and so on. The result inevitably is the forceful

perpetuation of other competing religions unsuccessfully threatening wholesome 

Hinduism. Hinduism by absorbing other religions rather than conflicting with

them never becomes weak or flawed.

                     Lord Krishna looked after cows. This ensures profuse supply

of milk and milk products   He floats on an ocean of milk actually. Lord Balaram

uses plough as " weapon " to ensure unlimited food supply.  Long preaching from

any book  can not defeat that food giving  plough.

        Yagjnas  are performed using or burning tons of ghee . To burn it more 

and more tons of cow milk is needed. For this many cows must be well fed and

looked after. That itself is the best thing about yagjnas  even if one

disbelieves in the rituals.

 

  Rather than weakening or losing members, Hinduism actually increases in

strength and dominance with every competing dogma it absorbs. This has been the

way of the Hindu religion from the beginning, and over the millennia it has

absorbed so many competing ideologies that it is essentially impossible lessen

the influence of Hinduism . Now Hinduism is spread all over the world. And many

westerners are increasingly drawn into Hindu practices like

Yoga,Sadhana,Meditation  Pranayama,Ayurveda and the like.

                    Love is an emotion that snowballs.  Hatred also snowballs.

" SADHANA " is snowballing love.
