| The Essence of Hinduism | |
| The essence of Hindu teachings is that everything is divine. Which means everything is perfect - every individual and all circumstances are perfect. However, our experience seems to tell us otherwise. We generally feel that our life and circumstances have so many things to be corrected and changed so that we may, perchance, one day become at least ...

| Are we God? | |
| Are we God? Many religions posit that God created the universe and then claim to have exclusive revelations as to what He expects of us. However, it seems to me that the creator-created dichotomy is artificial and even if we posit that God created it all, it is obvious that the one thing He could not have created would be life, for the simple reaso...

| Only Muslims have sentiments? | |
| When a private individual filed a petition in the Calcutta High Court seeking a ban on the Quran because it preaches violence, the then Congress government was quick to depute its Law Minster to have the case withdrawn because it did not want Muslim sentiments hurt. Now when the Congress central government itself submits in the Supreme Court that R...

| Now that Sonia Gandhi’s UPA Government has said that there is no historical proof that Ram and his contemporaries ever existed, we await the government’s withdrawing its holiday on Deepavali till authoritative proof is provided that Ram was not just a fig of the Hindu’s imagination.

| Bhagvad Gita as 'national holy book' | |
| Bhagvad Gita contains the teaching to transform man from a restless being without control of his passions to a restful being capable of confronting problems dispassionately. This teaching should be disseminated widely and if India takes it as her national mission to propagate it amongst her citizens, we would be strengthening our nation to the envy...

| God is not an outsider! | |
| It is generally said that we are not and we can never be God or part of Him. In thus saying we appear to be making a twin-error – one, in reducing “we” to our limited physical body and two, in assuming that God is less than the whole or total or absolute. If by God we mean “the person (or entity) who/that created the universe, sustains it and wou...

| There are many who mock at the concept of 33 crores gods worshipped by the Hindus. My take on this is that it is obvious to anyone who understands the highest teachings of Hinduism (Advaita) that everything there is and there is not is of one essence, call it God or whatever. Since the experience that is readily available to us since birth is the ...
