[QUOTE=kareng;47137]So Surya is not in India and is a Sikh and Nietzche is not in India and is a Hindu and neither of you can write or read Hindi and Punjabi…well honestly…[/quote].

I grew up in India. I could read and write Hindi then. Then my parents moved back to America (I was born in America first, but my family moved to India after a few months) and neglected to teach me Hindi. Because all my friends spoke English (and I, a lack of English :(), I wanted to conform and thus, put more emphasis on learning English. I was only a small child then (6 or 7) so do not blame me.

By the way, I am not Punjabi. I am ancestrally a Rajput, Rajasthani in other words.

[QUOTE=kareng;47252]My teeny brain had to work that one out but yes, your right, but you know it was just to stir you…

I knew you were a Sikh that had converted to Hinduism. A religious traitor that went to the other side. Remember what happened to Darth?![/QUOTE]

And your point is…what? Is your non-Indian side influencing you and trying to force you to be racist again?

[QUOTE=Surya Deva;47253]The jump from Sikhism to Hinduism is not that big. The vast majority of Sikhism is based on Hinduism directly. I see it more like going from a limited perspective and taking the higher perspective the former was embedded in: sanatana dharma.

Many Sikh people, if they are true to themselves, will realise that they’re really hindus.[/QUOTE]

Yes Surya, I agree, they are closely connected…My switch is from Christianity to Buddhism and Hinduism. And it wasn’t hard as the basic concepts of Christianity will produce the desired spiritual effects for those practicing sincerely, however, lineage is important as the fruits can be more easily obtained if you know to follow your spiritual lineage, whatever that might be. This is because you have previous experience in previous lifetimes that will leaves traces that are in you now… if you had say 20 lives before as a Sikh and 1000 as a Hindu, the Hindu will dominate and you will relate to it better. This was my experience, in part.

[QUOTE=Indra Deva;46163]I love how none of these people who want to complain about being such victims, pointing their finger at the “Evil West” or whomever they like, never stop to think that all their troubles may be due to… [B][I]their[/I][/B] karma? :lol:[/QUOTE]

Well if they were to look at the Karma aspect, they would have to stay silent…
