    What are your thoughts on Near Death Experiences?

    I believe they're telling the truth. That the soul actually pops out of the so called 'dead' body for a short period of time, hovers around it or even visits other spirit realms, then comes back to tell us about its experiences.

    Brahman v. Maya in a nutshell

    This is what some of us are trying to wrap our minds around. :oops: I guess we'll never know. lol I suppose you're speaking from an absolute reality, where there's nothing but Brahman, yes?

    Your favourite homegrown meal

    I like peda too. But it's not my favourite coz its way too sweet for me. Born in Ukraine but raised in India, so yeah, i do like a few Indian snacks like potato fritters, rice cakes (idlis) and even biriyani. I also like chicken and fresh water prawns but very rarely I eat them. I'm more content...

    What's your favorite genre of Electronic Music?

    I have heard a lot about Kraftwerk but i don't think i ever listened to their music or maybe i did but i don't remember. Just googled about them and found out they were into various genres like disco, post-punk, synthpop, techno etc. TBH, I spend a lot of time on the internet listening to...

    Why do you believe in God?

    Everything we see around us, couldn't possibly have cropped up, in my opinion, out of nothing. Existence cannot appear out of Non-Existence. The effect that we see and feel (the material universe) must have a cause. And this cause, in my opinion, is the infinite, all-pervading Spirit or...

    Your God

    In my religion, we the non-dualists see this eternal, infinite being as Spirit or Consciousness. IT exists before creation and continues to exist after dissolution. IT doesn't really create. IT simply manifests the material universe, from an unmanifested dormant state. This same Spirit or...

    Jaya Row on the witness state

    @SalixIncendium Ok this is going to be a long post. Sorry about that. And thanks for the links. Although the Vivekananda article was good and gave a desciption of what maya really is, it didn't explain how Brahman uses Its shakti maya to manifest as this material universe. If you say, Brahman...

    Jaya Row on the witness state

    I'm having a little difficulty in understanding how the two (Brahman and Maya) co-exist. And how does one helps the other to bring all sorts of illusory appearances. Can you explain this to me using the ocean & wave example?

    Jaya Row on the witness state

    If Brahman isn't the cause ... and Maya is, then doesn't that make Maya all-powerful and intelligent?

    Jaya Row on the witness state

    @ajay0 I really like what you posted here. Gita too says its prakriti or maya who's active, not the Atman. I think we the RF members here have already discussed this before but sometimes its good to bring up old topics. The more we discuss, the more our antahkarana gets purified. :) We do have...

    Other People's Gods

    I'm not very familiar with the pantheon of Egyptian, Mesopotamian or Roman Gods/Goddesses but I do believe that they exist. I believe in the existence of multiple Gods. IMO, they are simply manifestations of the Infinite Spirit Brahman. Some of those forms i believe came into existence during...

    Other People's Gods

    When you say "Ra at midday is associated with Horu" do you mean Ra is associated with Horus? Just curious. I've always wondered why Ra and Horus looks almost the same.

    I do not belive in converting nonbelievers

    Being a peace-loving person i would never forcefully convert atheists into believers. As you said in your post, belief in God should come from within. :) Yes you can discuss your beliefs with non-believers and if they like 'em, then its good, otherwise let them walk their own path. Let the...
