Hinduism ?

Re: Hinduism ?

religious verses crack me up, no matter what religion, they all have the same tone

"oh god you are so awesome oh god oh god"
" oh god thank you for everythign oh god"
" oh god you control everything we will behave"
" oh god you are so awesome oh god oh god"

Thats the similarity between all religions.
If you dont believe in god then you can not understand these verses.
Which religion your family practise?

Re: Hinduism ?

Vedic literature does not have any god beside, Indira, mitra, Varun, agni etc. they are considered Devas in hinduism, Later post vedic text bring in Bhagwan and holy trinity of Brhama, Vishnu and Mahesh:). Vedic geography doesn't have any idea beyond hindukush in east and Draviddesh in south:)
RigVedic Hymns are more concentrated on one Nirgun-ah and Nirakar-ah literally without any qualities and without any shape, god

And teacher is also above god and more right on individual than god:)

Ahmedis claim that Krishna is god's prophet:D

The verse means " With this intention I will start a faith of satan(paisacham) and claims that it will bring fall of Hindu civilization:). But if it is about end of times before MahaPralay(Quayamat) or before is doubtful:)

Saraswats claim that Maata Gayatri appeared from Saraswati river and gave it to Brahmins, but i doubt if entire literature claims so, Vedas were conceived before writing came and their actual dating is impossible as well.

Re: Hinduism ?

yes

parents comes first then guru,god is placed in third position....

btw sangam literature has more info about hinduism,they even predate sanskrit

Re: Hinduism ?

First is Pitra rina, followed by Rishi rina and lastly Dev rina. an individual is indebted by these rinas at the time of birth:)
Sangam literature is in classical tamil, modern tamil has sanskrit content while classical doesn’t have any:), it is considered of 3rd Century BCE:k:

Re: Hinduism ?

One more question about Hinduism.

Why Hindu females are so much attracted to Muslim males?

ok joking :(

Re: Hinduism ?

lolz
it happens both ways(natural animal attraction)...............

only thing if muslim women likes a hindu boy,it's not allowed in islam for a women to marry a non muslim, there parents will do a honour killing(there are many such kind of such stories in up,where parents killed thier own daughters) ..

also maybe unlike hindus, muslims are sour losers can't take it in a sportive spirit
ok last part joking :(

Re: Hinduism ?

You want theological answer or practical one:D

Hau merko malum kaisey potte osmania kalege ke bahir kade rehte:D

but if you are jatt, honor killing happens if couple has sagotra marriage:)

Re: Hinduism ?

Sagotra marriage or gandharb vivah?

Re: Hinduism ?

Gandharv vivah means, in which boy and girl of different or same caste elope together

Gothram tells from Paternal ancestry like My gothram is Gandhar, my ancestor is from Kandhar and hence all people with same gothram are either my brother or sister, hence marriage is void and couple is killed by Khap Panchayat of Jats:(

Re: Hinduism ?

lol dunno about jatts

but here in andhra it's next to impossible for intercaste marriage..
even the chicks if you go and propose they will ask you are you a reddy or chowdary if yes then ok orelse get lost....
my parents were exception they did inter caste marriage,so i can change according to girl by saying i belong to reddy or chowdary..

about gotra in south india we have cross cousin marriages,like fathers sister son/daughter or mothers brother son/daughter of opposite sex,so that bride and groom will come from two defferent families and also have defferent gotras
so no chance of marriage within same gotra,infact cross cousin marriages comes from puranas arjuna is married to daughter of balarama
generally in olden days your married only to ur cousin nowadays it's very rare may be in villages

Re: Hinduism ?

^^ Arjun was married to Shri Krishna’s sister, Subhdra, it was different gothram one was Pandav another was Yadav:). But in Andhra, I have attended a wedding in Adoni near Raichur and I saw a friend a girl marrying her Mama. Mama in jats means like two mothers, it is simply impossible in Nothern India:)
I am against killing anyone but I can’t agree to Sagotra marriage ever:hoonh:

Re: Hinduism ?

Thank god for this rule

OK, I've become really curious: What is the answer to OP's question?

Re: Hinduism ?

read properly again,i said cross cousin marriage,since opposite sibling are given to another family they will have gotra of husband’s family

about mama marriage it’s very rare nowadays,in olden days* defference between first and last child would be like 20 plus years,they use to bare childerns until age of 50
lolz in some cases mama would be younger then her niece,even then these people will belong to defferent families, since mother is married to another family*

Re: Hinduism ?

don't take it too serious,reply was in lighter vein to tlk's question about hindu women :p

Re: Hinduism ?

You mentioned Subhara was Balram's daughter, but she was balram's sister:) she was daughter of Vasudev and Rohini:)
Mama is from different gothram by default, but yet it is impossible in Jats because of his status of motherly position:), theologically that marriage is viable but it is not viable in Jat culture:)

Re: Hinduism ?

^ so all these personalities were actually real ppl?

Re: Hinduism ?

there’s been a lot of changes in hinduism. the vedic version has gods that have gradually crept out of significance. ideas like moksha, karma, etc are elements of dravidian faith. it is hard to say which is the real hinduism because the term “hindu” came much later after the religion of the land evolved. on a simplistic scale, one could say the vedic ritualistic brand of hinduism was pushed by the “brahmanas” while the more earthy and ascetical side was the realm of the “shramanas” (which included even brahmins like chaanakya).

if one follows the stories of the jain teerthankaras or the buddha, centuries before jesus christ, one would be amazed at the kind of movements that existed amongst the shramanas of the time, a lot of which is preserved in the pali canons of theravada buddhism (amazing how the best ideas from india are now preserved mostly outside india). if not for the likes of shankaracharya, the fabric of india’s biggest religion would have been vastly different.

Re: Hinduism ?

sorry my mistake got confused sister with daughter,have to brush up my knowledge,in black and white days we had awesome mythological movies in telugu ,almost everyone in my state are good with purnas and stuff
infact our greatest CM use to play all the mythological charceters in movies people based on those charecters use to think himself as god and voted him as chief minister

yea i know about that not just jatts but most of the north indian castes like rajputs,agarwals e.t.c
cousin/mama marriage are thing of past now atleast in my community as well as with the educated people ,most of them are afraid of new born babies out of this marriage,it has been scientifically proven new born children of this union are unhealthy

Re: Hinduism ?

THIS

i mentioned in some other thread,most of the southern part of india had buddhism and jainism,it was ADI shankaracharya (malayali) bhakti movement started to convert them back to hinduism

there are many buddhist relics found here Amaravati same goes about mention of jainism in sangam period…
