Introduction to Hinduism (Part 2/5)

[bustacapinlutha]

Why do Hindus believe male souls are older than female souls? I mean wouldn't there have to have been females around to give birth to these old souls?

[RedDragon033195]

for the record, Egypt had temples in 13th century BC, not to say that decreases the magnitude of hindu religion.

[hbaimtihdia]

hmmm with all due respect to the hindu scholar in the video, when a scholar speaks of other religions, they should have the correct knowledge of it Insha'Allah. Islam is not 1400 yrs old. The name Islam was given to the religion 1400 yrs back, but it started with Prophet Adom (pbuh), Noah (pbuh), Ibrahim (pbuh), Yusuf (pbuh), Musa (pbuh), Dawd (pbuh), Solayman (pbuh), Isa (pbuh) and finally to seal the coming of Prophet, there came Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) 1400 yrs ago :)

[hbaimtihdia]

@hbaimtihdia Btw, there are many more prophets Allah send, which I do not know the names of and therefore couldn't mention.

[Mehtaphorical]

@hbaimtihdia Well, it's absolutely true, of course, that the roots of Islam and these religious ideas have been developped long before Mohammed came around, so to say Islam is 1400 years old isn't truly fair, but you could also say the same of Christianity because both have their roots in the religion of Abraham. The same can be said of Hinduism, that it has, similarly, very ancient roots but it's not the same religion practiced by the Vedic people, some ideas has evolved over time to a degree.

5:55 I thought he was just going to keep leaning left til he fell over...

Though I am an Atheist I have alot of respect for Hindus. Hinduism is one of the few religions where the followers are genuinely kind, peaceful, and respectful of everyone because of what they practice. I have never once met a Hindu who wasn't all of those things.

[verisimilitudino]

Interesting religion.....I don't think it really captures absolute truth though....

[abuseforapie]

@verisimilitudino

Bro, there's no such thing as 'absolute truth' lol

It's a transcendental concept and out of our reach. Sorry.

[verisimilitudino]

@abuseforapie How do you know that? That it's out of our reach? Maybe now. How can you assert such a statement, that there's no absolute truth? I don't know it, you don't know it, but that doesn't mean one doesn't exist.....

[abuseforapie]

@verisimilitudino

Yeah

That's exactly my point lol

It's transcendental. Hence: "you don't know it, and I don't know it"

I was saying that whatever 'truth' there is, it is completely unknown to us. Take Brahman for example. Brahman is a transcendental concept and completely out of our reach, but it captures the idea of what most would think "absolute truth" is.

i like this religion its very psychedelic

[abby495]

This God predates All .The Christian faith tried to link him with the Hebrew one. The scribes picked the the blind war god and declared His followers to be heretics because they spoke material world..the Gnostics. Who is the God that Babylon dedicated its magnificent blue bricked city gates and why does Yahweh hate him? You shall have no other gods before me? Why? Because there is one greater God before him who is worthy of worship. The blue God ...the One and only.

"Grounding our society to a more spiritually fulfilling worldview"

I would add that that spiritual fulfillment also is the inevitable Evolution of the entire human race back into Heavenly caretakers of this world! Jai

[Shantar108]

Ahimsa is not causing pain to any living being at any time through the actions of one's mind, speech or body.--Sandilya Upanishad

That is Hindu Scripture

(if you are referring to the Bhagavad Gita that allegory is not part of the Vedas or Upanishads.

[bled2nouralive]
