Sri Sri Ravi S indulges bigots like Zakir Naik who is an open advocate of Islamic bigotry and says only Islam should be allowed in Muslim countries because it is the only religion acceptable to Allah (assuming Allah is God). In those farce debates Sri Sri just keeps mum and hes not even arguing. The why call it a debate? Love alone is not enough, it is necessary to also get a spine.

No one is Hindu, muslim or christain by birth.People like zakir naik are sure to go to hell.
It is against islamic teaching to condemn other religion. They follow a person Mohamed.He was neverr jealous of other messangers. We follow teaching of other saints, Simple!

You dont seem to get the point Manju..Zakir Naik is allowed unopposed to get away with his BS in the same forum as Sri Sri. FYI it is not against the teaching of Islam to claim its supremacy. In case you didnt know that is the core Islamic teaching that it is the last and perfected religion from Allah. Every one else is unacceptable to Allah.

- People like Ravi Shankar are not for one-upmanship. He believes in giving others space and create his own space for peaceful co-existence.
If somebody believes that only Islam is the only religion acceptable to Allah, then be it. He either believed in Islam and got converted or just became a Muslim by birth. That's his belief. There is no point arguing about it.

Dear Mohanty The why engage in these stupid debates??? just for the publicity??? why was Zakir Naik not rebutted??? why is he not simply pointed out that any claim of Zakir can only lead to religious supremacy?? if ordinary people like myself find it objectionable then why does Sri Sri not contradict what goes against his basic principle? The fact is indulging Zakir does more harm than promote peace. Just listen to this guy on the Quran TV - the man is a pure IslamoNazi, openly advocating the unique greatness of his religion and the rest as 'Unacceptable' to God. Sri Sri also makes some unnecessary errors which his followers should point out. He is an admirer of the spiritual Lebanese poet Kahlil Gibran but credited him as a Muslim. Kahlil Gibran is a Lebanese Christian and not Muslim, who migrated to USA.

If he is a Guru, the "enlightened one" why the hell does he move around in luxuries? Why the hell does he charge money for? Bah!!! This is bullshit!
A Guru does not need to go anywhere. If he has even 1% of truth in him and what he preaches, people will GO to him!

Gurus are needed to keep India's spiritual wisdom alive...if Gurus are gone, then psychiatrists shrinks will fill the void. Humans will always need spiritual guidance & religion in one form or another. The vast reservoir of Hindu wisdom needs to be propagated, because otherwise people will be doing Crusades or Jihad. Like all people gurus need to be rewarded as well, just like a doctor charges fees for treating you. Do not expect altruism in the 21st century. Good gurus is what you want.

Guruji preaches love for all. See god in everybody around you.. Don't think the person next to you is Muslim or Christian.. See him as a creation of god.. Why should Guruji argue with anybody.. His job in this world is to spread love & knowledge.

There are many gurus still living and some passed away. 90% of them have been proved having kama/ lust for money etc etc. recently also two boys found dead near an ahram of a guruji who give lecture in sony TV. those boys were studying in the ashram. this news will be covered up. ok gurujis keep your aim.

Sri Sri only preaches to the converted. He won't dare go anywhere near the actual cause of violence in the world - the Islamic countries. I know he went to Baghdad last year but he spent most of his time in the green zone with Americans and Iraqi government officials and prisoners.

I totally disagree to this views. I think author of this mail know only little about Guruji. I had read book in which various peoples have written their experiences . One of the experience is Guruji had even gone to place like Saudi Arabia and there he not only recd warm welcome, but also conducted his training and that also among normal peoples not prisoners.
