News Agency reports that at Kurushetra (India) about 1,000 NAKED Hindu "Sadhus" (saints) plunged themselves into the river during a solar eclipse, claiming this to be a "holy dip". Over one million pilgrims, naked and semi-naked, both male and female, also followed them into the river. The largest of the pools is Brahmasarovar, and is said to accommodate 100,000 bathers at a time. There was still no room for everyone in the water at one time and there was much pushing and shoving. The huge crowds waiting on the banks barely had space to turn around. People crowded the shore waiting for their chance. This is the position of "holy dip" everywhere in India. A haryana Government spokesman said that they posted 20,000 policemen to avoid misuse of this mixing opportunity for perverted reasons. In addition to this spectacle, the pilgrims also look directly at the sun with the naked eye. Scientists and doctors strongly advise against this as it is likely to cause blindness.

Mani Maran,
Suggest, you read Arthamulla Hindu matham by Kannadasan. Then question about Hinduism.
Its unfortunate, people like you are easily brainwashed by DK/DMK leaders and amazed wealth just provoking Hinduism. Just give me one Dravidian leader, who honestly made wealth? They indulge self-promotion and their families enjoy wealth, by misguiding people like you. They made you people NOT to study Hindi, but they send their children to learn Hindi and Sanskrit. Do you know, Karuna's wife a Sai devotee and Satalin and Azhagiri goes to temples with their family. Your Maran bros are well devoted and just watch Sun TV, they commenced telecasting Hindu festivals. MK's TV will celebrate Diwali and other HINDU festivals to make Money.
If your so called leaders talk about Hindu Gods, are they have any guts to talk about other religions? Can they openly declare, they don't want votes from voters/cadres, whoever goes to temple and believe in GOD?
I remember, what I was taught by my school teacher, who was a Christian by religion.
Mother - Truth Father - Belief
When my mother taught me Ramayan/Mahabharat and Hinduism , I didn't question my mother, b'coz I believe my mother and she can teach me only TRUTH. I didn't follow any leader as I go by knowledge gained after reading religious books incl Bible (Let me confess, I haven't read all books) By believing in God, I don't insult other religions. But without knowing Hinduism, people like you and your leaders critic

Avinash, Whatever Maran qouted might be due to the misunderstanding of our great religion, but we were thought some good manners from our Religion which says not to abuse anyone in the manner u have done. Honestly, try and change your tone. Also try to read something about Periyar, he was not as bad as these people, who say they are followers of periyar. He was genuine. he was just angry over somethings.
Try learn and then quote. Dont tarnish the holy image of our religion by using abusive words. In short Dont do whatever your oponent is doing.

So, what is your point?
Other then hatred against Hindus brought on no doubt by the brain washing of your minders the padre/mulla.
So, if soe looks at Sun directly is it bothering You so that you can post idiotic stuff on the internet.
Are you and yourpadre/mulla jealous of the "huge" crowds that yuo fake healing sessions as conducted by Beenny Hinn doe not draw as big crowds, despite bribing the audience and haveing a drama where well people pretend to be ill and then "get cured"
What abouthte rape of HUNDREDS of innocent children by hte Catholic priests. Is that acceptable to you?
What a hypocrite!
Take all that hatred out of your mind and see the Lord so that you can work towards avoiding you most cetain rebirths as God knows what.

Scientists and doctors strongly advise against this as it is likely to cause blindness. That is why Maran's friend Karuna is always wearing dark glasses. He is so scared of his eyes that he sleeps with this dark glasses on.
