As a theist i agree. The Supreme Lord resides in everyone's hearts as the atma, and dispassionately observes all our actions. The Supreme is very benevolent, and is pleased with us even if we do one good thing in a throng of evil decisions. The Supreme is also a chastiser, like the way mothers...
Namaskar Felino, you are desperately motivated by fear. I understand Europe is under attack by so called minorities, but there is no need to trust Trump and Putin over it. They will do far more damage than good.
Don't see anything terrible about it. Her mother was trying to make her comfortable about her period. Sure you don't need to throw a party over it, but it seems like it gets girls to talk more openly about their periods with each other.
Thanks DS, i'm doing good, as well as my grades :D
I went there yesterday and chatted with Rival for a while. Usually i'm just here on RF, so for a chat or two i'm available :D
Pranam! In Hinduism, the Varnashrama-dharma is the way society is supposed to function, and is divine in origin, as Lord Krishna said he created the 4 roles. But the caste system of today is a perverted version of it.
In the Varnashrama system anyone can change their role, for example a...
I am not a worshipper of Nitai-Gaur, but this thread may help you :)

This is good. While humans are intellectually superior to all known species on earth, this does not mean we should treat "lesser" animals as brainless and worthless. What we do to cows is a crime. I enjoy the idea of us having stewardship, taking care of our earth and its species, and not a...
Pranam Salix! Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya is a mantra of Lord Vishnu/Krishna, and it means "I offer my obeisances to the Supreme Lord Vasudeva". :)
Shanti means peace. To me, being at peace with the world like a leaf in the wind.
Shantih Shantih Shantih :praying:
I suggest you read up more about Hinduism. The Trimurti (Brahma, Vishnu, Siva) are respectively creation, preservation, and destruction. These are their posts, and is how the universe is governed. For clarification, the Vishnu as the preserver is one direct manifestation of Brahman who in...
Duvduv, i politely say that we (Hindus) do not believe only our "one true god exists". let me re-post what i said before:
If your definition of monotheism is the worship of only one Supreme, and denies the existence of other gods, that is not any definition any Vedantic tradition would take...
Refutation: Sunstone is wearing two different pairs of socks! Tsk tsk. Apparently your incredible knowledge of the Gods took a toll on your fashion sense :P
Devas are not imaginary. There are hindus who do not worship the devas however, like Vaishnavas (i am a Vaishnava) and only worship the Supreme and his devotees.
Ishwara is not the God of the Bible. The Supreme is infinitely powerful, but he has servants that participate in his lilas (pastimes) and perform tasks for him. All the devas were human at one point. They achieved their posts through pious activity. Yes, every deva is appointed to perform their...
