This is beautiful story - if inspired please forward, else keep it can't say when it might inspire you!  An old Farmer lived on a farm in the mountains with his young grandson. Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table reading his Bhagavat Geeta. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to imitate him in every way he could.  One day the grandson asked, "Grandpa! I try to read the Bhagawat Geeta just like you but I don't understand it, and what I do understand I forget as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the Bhagawat Geeta do?"  The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, "Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water."  The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandfather laughed and said, "You'll have to move a li...

What is the link between Hinduism and Yoga ? Ans. Yoga is an internal part of the Hindu religion. Hinduism and yoga are inseparable. In ancient India, it has been part of man’s activities directed towards higher spiritual achievements. These practices were documented by Patanjali in the form of Yoga sutras. Also, all the yogic discipline are detailed in the many scriptures of the Hindu religion like Vedas, Mahabharata, Bhagavad Gita etc. Hence, it is incorrect to divorce the spiritual disciplines of Hinduism and Yoga. Yoga as a Path to Self Realization The word yoga is derived from the root yuj ( to yoke, to unite), which means to unite or to join together the soul and the divine. A man who seeks after this union is called a yogi. The ultimate aim of yoga is to attain liberation of soul from the cycle of life and death. Yoga is a practical path to self-realization, a means of attaining enlightenment by purifying the entire being, so that the mi...

“Dharma” is an original “Sanskrit Word” of very wide connotation and it has no other equivalent substitute word in any other language of the world. For the last about 3,000 years innumerable “So Called Scholars” with a prejudiced mindset have been misinterpreting the concept of “Dharma” in a very narrow sense. Consequently the common masses are confused and have formed wrong notion of “Dharma” and they have begun to use it as a synonym of “Religion” or “Mazahab” or “Sampraday” associated with Modes or Methods of God Worship, Rites and Rituals, Festivals, Dress Code, Religious Symbols, Difference in Hypocrisy and Hypocritical Practices, Difference in Places of God Worship like Temple, Mosque, Church, Gurudwara etc. The fact is that all of the “Great Socio–Religious Reformers”, namely- Lord Buddha, Lord Mahavir, Jesus Christ, Prophet Mohammad, Guru Nanak Deva, Sant Kabir Das, Martin Luther, Swamy Dayanand Saraswati, Swamy Vivekanand etc. had vehemently opposed “Hypocr...

The Importance of Sanskrit to Hinduism Hinduism and Sanskrit are inseparably related. The roots of much of Hinduism can be traced to the dawn of Vedic civilization. From its inception, Vedic thought has mainly been expressed through the medium of the Sanskrit language. Sanskrit, therefore, forms the basis of Hindu civil ization. As language changes, so religion changes. In the case of Hinduism, Sanskrit stood for millennia as the carrier of most of Vedic thought before its dominance gradually gave way to the vernacular lanuages that eventually evolved into the modern day languages of Hindi, Gujarati, Bengali, Telugu, Kannada, and so on. Although the foundations of Hinduism are largely built on the vocabulary and syntax of Sanskrit, these modern languages are now the primary carriers...

My wants are as nothing compared with the demands of Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, commanding a huge army; and yet he could find time in the midst of the din and turmoil of battle to talk the highest philosophy and to carry it into his life also. Surely we ought to be able to do as much in this ... life of ours — comparatively free, easy, and comfortable. Most of us here have more time than we think we have, if we really want to use it for good. - Swami Vivekananda The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda/Volume 2/Practical Vedanta and other lectures/Practical Vedanta: Part I (Delivered in London, 10th November 1896)

The soul was never born and will never die, and all these ideas that we are going to die and are afraid to die are mere superstitions. And all such ideas as that we can do this or cannot do that are superstitions. We can do everything. The Vedanta teaches men to have faith in themselves first. - Swami Vivekananda  The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda/Volume 2/Practical Vedanta and other lectures/Practical Vedanta: Part I (Delivered in London, 10th November 1896)

Mother Teresa was no saint. Sandhya Jain |  6 March 2013 | Niti Central ::  Agnes Gonxha, the Albanian nun who became famous as Mother Teresa, was a political tool of the Vatican, adroit in legitimizing corrupt dictators and outright crooks rather than in serving the sick and dying in whose name she earned her enviable reputation and fabulous wealth. Far from being a saviour, she was a suppressor of the poor, according to Christopher Hitches, author of  Mother Teresa in Theory and Practice . Teresa is currently the subject of scrutiny by Canadian researchers Serge Larivee and Genevieve Chenard of the University of Montreal’s department of psychoeducation and Carole Senechal of the University of Ottawa’s faculty of education. The trio debunks her sainthood as the creation of an orchestrated media campaign, a fact that  Der Spiegel  and author Aroup Chatterjee have long exposed as the brainchild of BBC documentary filmmaker Malcolm Mu...

In that interview Justice Yusuf  highlighted the so called plight and exploitation of Indian Muslims and it was published under a headline, ‘It’s easy to exploit Miuslims in the name of religion’. Justice Yusuf encompassed out the irresponsibility of the State for various discrimination (absurdly designed under  al taqiyya  ) upon Muslims but ...
