similarities between Islam and RSS
by stav on Oct 09, 2007 07:08 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

Both are for narrowness (vedas are for an expanded sense of self)

Both are for supressing freedom of speach and expression (hidu pantheon has always vehemently spoken for self expression as well as discussion)

Both are against modernity.

Both are against the westernization.

Both are against womens rights.

the list continues

RSS is the Talibanization of Hinduism



They are the killers of our father of nation.

What logic do you want. how can you justify narrowness, when hinduism is all about the self expansion (samadhi). hinduism is about vaster identity than your body and what do these guys do, just the precise opposite.

Shivaji was a great leader and a dacoit, he had a hindu name, fought back with exactly the same rules as the muslims, he is to be praised as a guerill warrior not a hindu kind. we have people in the hindu pantheon who were kings of who folowed dharma. Our tradition is not those of dacoits who were hindus, but mighty kings who ruled with dharma.

No you do not want Sanathan Dharma, what you want is a big group, very similar to islamic sultanate or a christian world. Hinduism will never be that. Our contribution to the word is advaitic pantheism and yoga not limited money and power mongering cults. India's destiny is to teach the world precisely that, not to make cults like the middle eastern deserts. I hope I make myself clear.

Father of Hindutva are Bankim Chandra Chatterjee, Swami Vivekanand, Swami Dayanand, Sri Aurobindo - all of them greatly educated.



Only a BIG IDIOT has guts to term RSS as anti-women, anti-west.



Fact is, they are westernised Hindus.



Internet is full of idiots and Stav is one of them:)-

Hinduism of Aurobindo and Vivekananda was an expansive pantheism not border limited hinduism of the RSS. And Bankim was a jelous rascal.

Do you know anything about vedas? Do you know the freedom of expression in Hinduism? Have you heard of Buddha and what he was against and for during his childhood? Do you know what kind of debates he had with people at his time? What is modern? Wearing western clothes and listening to pop music and watching MTV and fashion tv? What do you mean they are against westernization? You should not talk too much when you have absolutey no idea as to what you are talking about.

Yes I am aware of the difficulties of Buddha, he was a true hindu at that time, when "hinduism" has fallen into the hands of casty priests who had lost all knowledge of the vedas. We do not RSS type hinduism to exploit hinduism which Aurobindo and Vivekananda have given us.

i cannot claim to understandf the vedas, which i am sure you too do not. so stop claiming nonsense, if i talk about vedic hinduism, its the interpretation of vivekananda or Aurobindo.

You made the claim on vedas. So if you don't know about it just shut your mouth and don't talk nonsense.
