Hindus - Let our Children not find us Liars
by raja lakshman on Sep 13, 2007 07:27 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

We need to take in scientific facts when we look in to issues. Beliefs are different from facts. If Hindus are not able to accept that some of their beliefs are not scientific facts then they will only get backward with passing of time and God help us then. If we just hold on to beliefs overlooking facts then we become liars in front of our children. Then Hinduinsm will only get to lose. The Ramayana is not entirely based on facts. How do we explain the 'Vanar Sena' if it is fully facts. Will not people living down south be offended in that case?

But remember just because we beleived, truth will not become false or false become truth. E.g., many centuries people beleieved earth is flat, or sun going around earth... did they change just because we believed. When the proof came beleiefs have to change accordingly otherwise we making ourselves liars and our children followers of the lie. Sometime back I read in Competetive Success, a magazine that many Group 1 exam takers prepare had secion on persons Past, mentioned Jesus 4B.C Budha ~500BC Mohemmed ~500AD there they showed Valmiki ~800BC and Vedavyas ~800BC as Sanskrit poets, who wrote stories, why didn;t this agitation takes place then?
