Truth is larger then religion
by Vikram Singh on Feb 06, 2007 12:05 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

Unfortunately the deeper truths and essence of Indian spiritual systems is getting lost in the mundane fanaticism of the Kalyug.

Truth is not Indian truth or Hindu Truth. It does not manifest in the form of nations or culture. In fact such mundaness hides truth from those who live in such a false world.

How does it matter if a Christian calls for tribals to convert or a Muslim does not accept Indian nationality. How does it matter if a Sikh says he is not a Hindu. How does it matter if a Hindu attaches his religion and faith system with his national existance.

All this is Maya. It is the Maya of the world described in the Bhagavad Gita and the Guru Granth Sahib. It is the Maya that so many prophets and Gurus spoke of that blinds us to hate and judge others.

Mr Gautier, do not elevate your ego based upon hate. The truth of the scriptures and culture you love preaches kindness, compassion and humility. These 3 virtues are the virtues of a true warrior. No nation can be based upon falseness. That nation will only one day crumble as it advocates an illusion.

India too is such an illusion, like so many other nations and civilizations that have come and gone...

I think your perception of Mmr gaultier being egoistic is maya. Being kind and compassionate is one thing and being spineless is another.
