I FOLLOW MY CONSCIENCE
by Jesus Ram on Jun 06, 2007 09:14 PM Permalink | Hide replies

I don't follow any religion. I follow my conscience--learn good things from religions and leave bad things.

My answers for some of the questions or doubts people put:

1. Ramayana, Mahabharat, Krishna, Ram, etc, are myths [fictions made by writers and poets]

My Answer: It hardly matters whether they are myths or facts. Take the morals from them.

2. There are lots of superstitions in Hinduism

My answer: Take good points. If there are superstitions, now you have the sense to differentiate. Instead of abusing, take good things.

3. The messages that Jesus is a son of God, Jesus is a prophet, Jesus has resurrected, Jesus has performed miracles, Jesus was born to a virgin, etc, are all myths.

My answer: Just learn some good points from Jesus' messages. Don't bother about his divinity and miracles. Think he is good philosopher.

I happened to go through the interview with Revered Chennas Divakaran Thirumeni

on your website. I%u2019m glad to know that there is at least one media entity in this

so called %u201CGOD%u2019S own country (dotted with Devil%u2019s own people)%u201D who is ready to take

the pro minority votebank/minority appeasing media which is hell bent of destroying the

very fabric of the Hindu community and its ethos, by its horn. Kudos to you for the good job

you have done.

It is often taken for granted that the Hindus, especially the young generation always

Turn a Nelson%u2019s eye towards their religion as well as belief. As a 27 year old Hindu

based in the Middle East, I can declare with pride that I know atleast a million of

my brethren spread all across the globe, who are even ready to shed their blood for

the cause of upholding their right to practice their faith without any intrusion of external

forces. It will be interesting to know that times have changed so much so that these people

are fully prepared to face all eventualities head on , thanks to their hefty bank balances.

The %u201CNelson%u2019s eyed Hindu%u201D notion needs to be shredded down to the tiniest bit, in case

one is interested in accepting truth as what it is!!!!!!

As a matter of fact, it has been noted that ONLY matters related to Hindu faith is

often brought under the scanner and that too more often than not, un necessarily.

Allowing Non Hindus

I agree with your summary as long as u don't directly point fingers at practices which are sensitive to others! (Comments like "fictions made by writers and poets"). Because for a lot, these epics and names are part of their life.
