Either way, it gets people focused on religion and the various ideas, etc. I left the word "Meaningless" out of the title.

Regarding belief, 'so what' makes a lot of sense to me. With regard to action it doesn't. With action, 'Why?' makes more sense. If you're about to do something, and you ask yourself 'why?' but get no answer, maybe that's a clue.

Don't believe the hype. Check the facts. When a person is consistently looking for validation, recognition, and reminding everyone of their "20+ years" of experience..

Or may be faking it.

Hinduism, and my version in particular, does have belief in it, but primarily it is about action. It doesn't really matter to me what a person believes ... or in other words 'So what?" However, it does matter to me what you do, or how a person conducts themselves. Anger management, self-control, kindness, charity ... all that good stuff.

Sanskrit : Tatah kim, punjabi : Te pher ki hoya.
Nice way to dismiss the mundane and maintain equanimity..

It is simple, Dybmh. Some people might be talking about their prophet\son\messenger\manifestation\mahdi and their God\Allah knowing very well that these are just human imagination, but since they belong to a group, they will still say that and want others to join their group. It is like one who got his nose cut would want others also to have their noses cut to see the imaginary Emperors New Clothes. 20-years is just an attempt to turn falsehood into truth.

Shouldn't he have his divine frisbee? Maybe you can collect all his heads and arms each sold separately ..

Krishna does not have any divine frisbee, he just has a flute. He also does not have many arms and heads - unless he shows his universal form, but he does not show that to everyone.

Frisbee was just my silly way of referencing his Sudarshana Chakra.

Yes and I was irreverently commodifying his universal form into accessories for a line of collectible action figures.

My "Home Temple" is a bookcase full of books and movies arranged in chronological order. Action figures might be nice addition.

OK people... @sealchan and I both are collecting books.

In case of emergency... if the entire global economy and infrastructure collapses... no electricity and we're reduced to rubbing sticks together for fire...

at least you can rest assured that our holy scriptures are being preserved.

Thought from the fiery opening that you were going to say that at least we'll have paper to burn for better-quality fire...:p

Have you ever heard of "fat wood". Also Cedar bark. Those would be my "goto" for kindling a fire in case we are jettisoned back to the stone ages.

The point is... I gawt this, bro. You can leave all that stuff to me. In case of disaster... come to my house :)
