Guest guest Report post Posted January 3, 2006 Namaste everyone, Next year I have my final exams and finish school. But first I have to write about any topic I want( of course the school has to agree) and I´ve a full year time to do my work which should be according the school authorities minimum 50 hours. Now I´ve chosen to write about "hinduism" and especially clear some major misunderstandings, and indian history. The content of my work would probably look like this : ----- - Definiion of Hinduism ( it´s not only polytheism and idol worship, original name is sanatana dharma. there are many paths which lead to the same destination, self-realization) . Aryan Invasion Theory ( AIT is a joke) ."Caste System" ( varnasrama-dharma) : caste is not given by birth, but by gunas, one´s nature. - Sati- burning of widows ( has nothing to do with hinduism) probably also : - yoga is not only gymnastics, it has a spiritual meaning - Many things have been manipulated ---------- Now my question is if somebody could suggest some books or links , especially on the AIT. (I´ve to order the books through the internet and it´s very expensive, that´s why want only the "good" ones) what about these books here ? -The True History and the Religion of India by Swami Prakashanand Saraswati -Aryan Invasion Theory by Shrikan G.Talageri -The Myth Of Aryan Invasion of India -------------------- Thank you very much Jai sri krishna ekansh Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted January 4, 2006 what is it for? undergrad college grad or highschool? u should also write about why Hinduism answers all the questions thru logic and science and NOT belief. you MUST drive home the point that hinduism is NOT a belief system that is shoved down its ppl's throats (like other religions). u must say that hinduism is most unique in that it encourages ppl to ask questions and is suported by pure logic, reasoning and science of thinking.

Guest guest Report post Posted January 4, 2006 It´s for "high school"(I am 17) sure I will that hinduism is like a way of living and every aspect has been explained and there is not only one way to "reach god". But first I want to make clear that hinduism is not a bunch of fairy tailes and unlogic rules etc. You know the people here don´t know much about hinduism. They think hinduism is absurd especially because of the caste system and sati. jai sri krishna Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
narayanadasa 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2006 Jai Sriman Narayan: Title: God, Rebirth and the Vedas ISBN: 8122405061. This is not for Aryan Invasion in general but a lot more about basics of Sanatana Dharma from a scientific point of view in a way that common western men will understand Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
