Sri Krishnaya Namah!

Dear Sir,

I agree with you that we all should  treat fellow folks as brothers 
irrespective of caste.    Normally brahmagyanis are those who  tend to 
overlook all these barriers.  But here again, these noble souls are 
uninterested (not disinterested) in the life and its maya that they will 
keep themselves in hibernation.   In Kalyuga, expect this from everyone is 
illogical.   In villages, where tradition thrive, people are bent on hard 
feelings of caste etc.,   In cities, they are influenced  by various 
external factors - of eking out livelihood, earning fame, money etc., thus 
they care less for these feelings.

Also, Christians (through their religious committees, worldwide) propogate 
their religion as supreme and likewise Muslims.    There is definitely 
fundamentalists in all religions.  Saying that only Hindus have these is 
pure bias.  Infact, we have been robbed off by Christians and Moghuls our 
precious valuables.   Has anyone pinpoint on Hindus having been indulged in 
such a crime.   No religion in the world has as much as sathvik people like 
we Hindus have.

We as hindus are deeply spiritual, just like other religion, and with the 
influence of Western and eastern philosophies and people, presently we are 
in confusion.    This confusion results in narrow minded people either in 
love of god or the contrary, while fundamentalist in Hindu religion may 
have gone ashtray in this while protecting little whatever left over by 
Moghul rulers and Brits.

As far differences in us, it is not a big issue, as long as they continue 
to pray their ishta devas and seek Him.  If there is a violence then they 
get punished by lord in due course.

Sukumar

Sri Krishnaparabrahmane Namah!

Dear Members,

.........
My question is why we fight internally  that my
religion is great and why cant we listen to others
also. Of course in our religion there are sub
divisions like sudra, brahmin,vaishya etc.  and we are
having lots of gods to pray and treating my rama is
great my shiva is great. Why are these diferences
among ourselves.

I give lot of respect to Hinduism but why are making
differences among ourselves on caste and crede basis.
Why cant we love people by not seeing the religions
caste etc.

Sincerely
Navilpakam Raman,
