    Vedas modified ?

    Hi Alishan What do you think, would you accept them? :) A person who has realised the truth of the Vedas would not need to change the Vedas. The truth brings that understanding. If the Vedas were changed by someone who did not know the truth of the vedas then that change may remain false...

    You are more moral than your holy book

    Deep within each on of us are our good morals, they reside naturally as our higher self. However due to the way the world is, we become distracted by desire and repulsion. Our higher self is very pure and subtle and the world is loud and demanding. We purse material ends at the cost of others or...

    Vedas modified ?

    Hi Alishan I understand what you mean. :) As someone researching religion, it is useful to completely understand that in Hindu theology the Creator (God) is not separate from creation (you and me), he resides in our hearts. Here are a few quotes: Mandukhya Upanishad (Vedas) I-27. Om is...

    Vedas modified ?

    Hi Alishan No, God isn't limited to the sky in Hinduism. My understanding is that there is no single origin of the Vedas i.e. In Hinduism, Apaurusheyatva (IAST: Apauruṣeya), Sanskrit, "being unauthored", is used to describe the Vedas, the main scripture in Hinduism. This implies...

    Vedas modified ?

    Perhaps it is just me, however there is an underlying assumption that change is not good or would some how make the Vedas inferior. In my opinion that is academic as what "modification" would need to first be defined and it starts to miss the fundamental message of the Vedas. My stance is...

    Basically Unhappy, but Distracted

    Not unhappy, but aware that there can be improvements. The amount of focus and time they spend on that tends to be low but would lead to unhappiness if they can't improve. Most people practice distraction, even with news or politics or cooking and house work i.e. practical required things...

    Is Hinduism really considered idolatry in the Abrahamic eyes?

    Yes, you understood "All is Brahman" correctly. However I need to point out that "even worse" is relative to the position each one of us holds. So the question must be answered by considering both the Hindu and the Abrahmic points of view jointly, rather than conflictingly. We can consider both...

    Is Hinduism really considered idolatry in the Abrahamic eyes?

    There is never really a middle man in Hinduism. If a Hindu claims that there is then it is to help those who do not understand take a step closer to God in my opinion. Eventually it becomes clear that all is Brahman. :)

    May I ask why? :)

    Knowing for sure

    :D Yep, me too. I find the mind to be unloyal, it will quietly lead us away from God and goodness.

    Knowing for sure

    Forums and comparative religions make the mind doubt. It is as simple as that :)

    What is the difference?

    :) I couldn't have predicted that answer, thanks! If I understanding Juedeochrsitanislammormonism is the solution, I am still not sure how there can be any way except Islam according to the Quran unless you see Juedeochrsitanislammormonism clearly defined in the Quran?

    Does Islam Need the Sword to Spread?

    Hi Badran Then why not start with that OP and discuss it? :) Secondly that stance is unrealistic because Islam is here now. Again all of this is really just a façade to something else. It is like plucking leaves off a tree but never cutting the roots of the issue. Entertaining for some I...
