Understanding Hinduism

Query: I have difficulty understanding "Hinduism". How does Hinduism define self in relation to God/reality? In realtion to society? How does all of this tie together?

Vijay Kumar:

continued from... Atman Self God Hinduism

Does it mean that God Almighty Creator does not have an opponent... he does have a Satan almost consisting of powers equivalent to God Almighty. God is at plus hundred and Satan is at minus hundred. Both balance each other... whatever remains is the pure energy at any given point of time in whole Cosmos and that is... the power of God Almighty. Here we can define the meaning, the definition itself of God Almighty.

As per Hinduism, God Almighty Creator is but the sum of all purified Souls atmans in the cosmos. This phenomenon occurs only at the time of dissolution of cosmos (pralaya in Hinduism). At this time the whole Cosmos collapses to but the size of half a thumb... this is clearly expressed in Bhagavad Gita... the foremost of all sacred Scriptures existing on Mother Earth. This half the size of a thumb is what we call God Almighty... it is the combined positive power of all purified Atmans souls in the Cosmos. This is such a truth that cannot be falsified by any.

Hinduism speaks of the ultimate reality through the mouth of Bhagavad Gita... in Bhagavad Gita is contained everything that is worth knowing as a human being! The knower of Bhagavad Gita emancipates forever and reaches the stage of Salvation Moksha. It is as simple as that... one who has seen the light of the sun is no more interested in the candle light and the power of the bulb. Having known the absolute truth... the physical manifest form carries no further meaning... the cosmic life of that Jiva (living being) comes to an end. One gains Salvation Moksha!

Jainism is part of Hinduism. Buddhism is also part of Hinduism. Christianity is also part of Hinduism. Islamic Dharma is also a part of Hinduism. Why? Lord Krishna the Avatar was the first to descend... after him followed Bhagwan Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ and Prophet Mohammed. Their teachings may very but the essence is the same. All these man gods never refuted the sayings of the earlier man gods.

In essence Jesus Christ who came later never retaliated upon whatever Bhagwan Mahavira and Gautama Buddha preached. and prophet Mohammed never refuted whatever Bhagwan Mahavira, Gautama Buddha and Jesus Christ preached. It is only the Spiritual masters of today who have interpreted the Scriptures to their benefit... they disguise themselves as the benefactor of mankind yet, they are the people who divert the attention of mankind from the absolute truth... for their own benefit they have manipulated contents of the sacred Scriptures so that the common masses remain away from knowing the truth. In order to maintain their supremacy over the masses... they have kept the masses away from absolute truth.

English call it "water"... Indians "jala" and followers of Islam "paani"... all drink one and the same thing what we call as water. The content and the essence is the same... only expressed in different formats.

Here I would like to clarify one very important point that forms the core of humanity. Whatever it is contained in Hinduism is not contained in the Jainism. and whatever is contained in Jainism is not contained in Buddhism. Whatever forms the path of Buddhism is not necessarily contained in Christianity. and whatever is contained in Christianity is not necessarily contained in the preaching's of prophet Mohammed... the Koran.

Whoever came first had the absolute knowledge... as time passed by the knowledge faded away... as faded the Nalanda and the Taxila universities. As the mankind grew it developed more and more of materialistic tendencies... this led the mankind farther and farther away from knowing the absolute truth. and now after a lapse of about 3600 years time has come to establish Dharma again. The advent of Bhagavan Kalki, the Avatar of the modern era is awaited with abated breath.

The laws of society in general have broken down... it is again the period of "might is right". The happening of 9/11 episode is not a planning of one-day. It was bound to happen. The order is to be maintained at all costs. The usurping of about US$ 20 billion from the coffers of Iraq in the name of oil for food exchange programme by George Bush and his administration is totally uncalled for... totally blasphemous?

None in the world can dictate to the other. Every human being... every Jiva (living being) has a right to live... none is governed by the other. United States of America acted as the savior of the world... it had no moral right to send its forces to the Republic of Iraq or the Afghanistan. Who does not know that USA is a sheer bully trying to dominate the world at large? It can never be... God Almighty, never permits such things! The order is to be maintained... this only can be possible after the occurrence of the third World War... a nuclear war between Christianity and Islam... 1200 million people are destined to die in this war. Bhagwan Kalki, the Avatar of the modern era shall make it happen.

It is only a short while from now that the order shall again be maintained in the world.

If we say the cosmic essence of God consists of 16 principles then all these 16 principles are contained in the Bhagavad Gita. Jainism can be said to consist of 12 principles, Buddhism 10, Christianity 8 and Islamic Dharma 6. and now we have reached a stage that no principles are being followed... we have practically reached the zero value. and again to lift the society from zero to 16 is required an Avatar... the Bhagwan Kalki who shall finish the present Kali Yuga (the metallic age) and start the golden era (Satyuga).

Bhagwan Kalki is considered to be a person who shall be having almost the same powers as that of Lord Krishna... he shall not be attached to one Religion or Dharma. He shall be a true representative on Mother Earth only to preserve the order in the society. The moment his job gets completed... he shall leave Mother Earth... the physical manifest form and attain the level of an enlightened one!

Again, Bhagwan Kalki shall represent India... from where emanates the wisdom of God... whatever is contained in Bhagavad Gita and Hinduism shall again be reaffirmed and firmly established. So much power within a human being... he shall and can never be compared to the status of a man God... he has to be the direct representative of God Almighty on Mother Earth.

Not only that Bhagwan Kalki shall represent India but also being born and nurtured in the soils of India he shall truly be able to firmly establish the faith of God in total mankind. In the coming Satyuga (the golden age) there shall not be any materialistic tendencies that are dominating today. Hinduism truly represents the wisdom of God in its entirety... the prime reason why Lord Krishna the Avatar, the coming of Bhagwan Kalki, all the man gods from Bhagwan Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ and prophet Mohammed gained their wisdom from India.

Prophet Mohammed also was born in a region that once belonged to India... the domain of Hinduism once extended even beyond Persia. If one truly needs to understand the cosmic system of God one only needs to understand the cosmic glory of sun in its entirety. The value of studying the power of candlelight or a bulb shall cease to exist. Rather it would not be necessary to indulge in any other Religion or the Dharma if we can understand Hinduism to its core. and Bhagavad Gita forms the core of Hinduism. One single document which is available in India... the shortest paperback edition of Bhagavad Gita is available for Rs. 7.50 (equivalent to US $0.16... sixteen cents... yes! That is right!).

Full text of query: Hi. I was wondering if you could answer a question for me. I am studying World Religions, for my first exposure, and I am having difficulty understanding "Hinduism," if I may call it that. Could you possibly answer some questions? If so, first, I was wondering how does Hinduism define self? In relation to God/reality? In realtion to society? How does all of this tie together?
