“Hindus fall because they worship lesser gods.” Abrahamics are trampling Hindus. Can you help me understand?

Given that there are atheist, polytheist and monotheist Hindus, that's quote is from serious ignorance.

Indeed the numbers of hindus converting to islam is huge as compared to conversions to hinduism.

True there are many types of Hindus. But all are falling.
Provide a source for that claim.

What do you mean by falling?

Revelations from Moroni or a visitation from Lord Krishna, neither has good evidence for it being literal.

Sounds like a common misconception about Brahman and Yahweh.
Yahweh is just a typical Near Eastern deity who evolved in the writings of Aquinas and other theologians to embody Platonic ideas and arrive at the modern understanding people have.
Brahman is equally as vast in Hinduism and is the source of all consciousness. Everything else is just illusion, maya, emanating from consciousness. Both concepts are beyond spacetime, eternal and so on.
But in the Quran Allah sounds more like a dictator constantly making threats of "a horrible doom", calling Christians and Jews "liers" yet is supposedly their God and he goes to another nation and talks like that about the millions who worship him? Saying Brahman is "lesser" than this is plain wrong.
Also the OT God, floods the world, commands women and children to be plunder of war, tells to kill all life in 6 cities, says he is jealous, sends plagues to children, terrible stuff. These stories are of a lesser deity by far.
Nah...it just appears to you that we fall because we prostrate rather than kneel.

I'm still trying to figure out what the OP meant by "fall."
If the quotation was from a soldier of the British Raj, battling Hindu forces, it probably means die. If it's from a theologin it's probably a doctrinal disagreement. If it's a political statement it probably refers to loss of sovereignty or some political defeat.
The term is impossibly ambiguous. Unless it's clarified intelligent discussion of it is impossible.

Sure. There are millions of opinions about life on this planet, in a vast array of topics. This is one opinion. That ought to help you understand, but I suspect it won't.

@Bharat Jhunjhunwala
Is "fall" also referring to the Indo-Pakistani conflict of 1947-1948?
When did India lose the territory that became Pakistan?
Did that also result in "fall" when Hindus converted to Islam?
I'm confused about the relationship here.
Is @Bharat Jhunjhunwala your guru?
It seems to me you've gleaned over every other post here but his. Not being critical. Just curious.

@Valjean I was rushed due to message above this one. I can't keep up at all.
I analyzed the word 'fall' in all three versions you showed. Further down in this post, I articulated more questions.
1. from a soldier of the British Raj, battling Hindu forces, it probably means die.
Who is British Raj? I'm google searching.
In Hindi, raj means "rule" or "kingdom." Britain's control over the Indian subcontinent during the 19th and 20th centuries was officially known as British India, but it was commonly referred to as "the British Raj" or simply "the Raj." The raj officially began in 1858, and it lasted through 1947 when the region was ...https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/raj#:~:text=In Hindi, raj means "rule,1947 when the region was

https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/raj#:~:text=In Hindi, raj means "rule,1947 when the region wasQuestion I'll ask you, @Valjean what things people in India could have done to prevent this "die" that you are referring to by the word "fall." Please give me examples from your imagination.
2. If it's from a theologin it's probably a doctrinal disagreement.
3. If it's a political statement it probably refers to loss of sovereignty or some political defeat.

google search word sovereignty is = supreme power or authority.My question is: what is convert when either want to or forced to? When is convert within the word fall?
Another question that I thought of now, due to writing this post, is: Are there more emotions at the edges of countries than in the middle of a country?
Do people in the middle of a country feel more safe within their religion than people on the edge of a country?
What areas of conversion are not within the meaning of fall?
What about interfaith, could people combine religions too? Would that at all inter the word fall or not?

Ok hi @SalixIncendium I just notice it's you after I click reply the one who asked is @Bharat Jhunjhunwala by guru
I just notice this.
word prostrate and kneel., I need to google search to find what do these two words mean
Prostate = lying stretched out on the ground with one's face downward.
- lay oneself flat on the ground face downward, especially in reverence or submission.
"she prostrated herself on the bare floor of the church"
This is kind of strange because google claims in a church.
However in this case face downward. Face downward on floor causes what? To fall?
Maybe this is ok now to show where I gotten this idea, notice the first and last sentence.

You say, “Your statement that “hindus fall because they worship lesser gods.” I understand that Brahman > Brahma-Vishnu-Shiva > various gods like Hanuman, Rama, etc. My point was that Abrahamic religions connect with Brahman=God=Allah whereas Hindus connect with Brahma-Vishnu-Shiva-Hanuman-Rama etc. Hence Abrahamics are trampling Hindus.
if you notice what I did is I taken "hindus fall because they worship lesser gods" and "Abrahamics are trampling Hindus" and form a topic title and placed it in a debate here in forum.
I was thinking debate was more permissible for conflict type of situations such as fall
So... what all had taken place for this word fall and what all areas are., because with in this debate discussion I notice the word lesser and also how did trampling how?
If one reads Abrahamic God is "Jealous" compare to God's that's lesser of what? Is there such thing is less then Jealous, what happens then?
In Egypt @Tamino perhaps shall I have @Tamino as a guru because if I have @Bharat Jhunjhunwala as a guru, I'll claim @Tamino as a guru, because guru means teacher.
So is a cow God a Jealous God or a lesser God; I'm asking you @Tamino as a cow is one of the shapes of the 8 Gods?
Also did at any time at KMT anyone lay flat on the floor face down, if so how come?
