THE CONCEPT OF CHARITY IN HINDUISM: ANNAM BAHU KURVITHA – TADVRATAM

THE CONCEPT OF CHARITY IN HINDUISM: ANNAM BAHU KURVITHA – TADVRATAM

Even charity is unconditional in Hinduism. There are no subtle conversion techniques and publicity gimmicks. Rajadharma ordains that even a King cannot have a good night’s sleep even if one of his subject is sleeping on an empty stomach.
annam bahu kurvita- tadvratam
(Ensure abundance of food all over; This is an inviolable [...]

THE HINDU VIEW OF WEALTH & POVERTY

THE HINDU VIEW OF WEALTH & POVERTY

In anti-Hindu publications, the routine accusation against the Hindus is that they are anti-life and keep hallucinating about the other world.  For this, they use Shankaracharya’s classic line: Brahma Satyam, Jagat Mithyam (The world is Untruth, only Brahma (God) is Truth).  In the name of Karma, Hindus justify poverty.  This is how the pseudos malign [...]

NEWSWEEK SAYS USA IS HINDU, WHY NOT DECLARE INDIA AS HINDU RASHTRA?

What prevents the pseudos from declaring that India is Hindu Rashtra?

THE WAY INDIAN MEDIA DISTORTED MUSLIM SCARF ISSUE IN MANGALORE

Indian media suffers from a dhimmi mentality.  In its anxiety to appease the Muslim jehadis, they brand Hindus as “Fanatics”.  Here is what really happened in the words of Ganesh Prabhu, Correspondent of SVS College Bantwal.

INDIAN MEDIA SUPPORTING ISLAMIC TALIBANISATION IN MANGALORE

INDIAN MEDIA SUPPORTING ISLAMIC TALIBANISATION IN MANGALORE

When Ayesha entered SVS College Bantwal with a scarf for the first time, the College administration had told her not to do so since it infringes upon the dress code of the college.  Every College has its own right to impose a dress code.  Fair enough, after all, you can’t expect all students to don [...]

DO WE NEED A HINDU ARMY OR A HINDU SUICIDE SQUAD? THE ANSWER IS NO

There are several Hindus today who are really frustrated at the way Hindus are let down throughout the world.  In several parts of the world, Hindus are at the receiving end of Islamic jehadis, Christian evangelists, Left Maoists, loose canon media and giant transnational companies.
The Shiv Sena Chief Bal Thackerray had even called for a [...]

TRUTH IS NOBODY’S MONOPOLY: IS IT SACH KA SAAMNA OR SEX KA SAAMNA

TRUTH IS NOBODY’S MONOPOLY: IS IT SACH KA SAAMNA OR SEX KA SAAMNA

I found STAR TV’s Sach KA Samna truly disgusting.  What does STAR TV think?  Does it have the monopoly over truth just because it has some polygraph machine?  The thick skulls in the STAR TV team do not even realise what Truth with a capital T is.
In Hinduism, Truth does not just mean not uttering [...]

FOR THE LATEST IN ENLIGHTENMENT

FOR THE LATEST IN ENLIGHTENMENT

I was a hardcore J Krishnamurthy/Osho freak right from my college days and my desire for spiritual fiction/reality only grew by the day.  Though I never met JK and Osho in flesh and blood, I had the privilege of meeting  and talking with several ‘enlightened’ persons of our times. 
During the recent past, I enjoyed reading [...]
