Yes, I have said India is superior to the West in every way, except in technology. You can review my posts I have never said otherwise. You can also review my posts to see I have always maintained from the start the West have many good people, good things going on like the spiritual movement in the West.
It is not just superior to the West in technology. It is generally materially superior, and that includes the sciences.
Whenever I have said the West is materially superior, you have admonished me and said “Nietzsche, our old colonial systems were more advanced than Western capitalism.” Lol wut?
There is no double speak here, you are just being an idiot and refusing to see what I am saying: Be objective, balanced and considered in your criticism. Reward merit where there is merit and punish where there is demerit. I criticise the West for its capitalism/materialism and plunder etc, but I reward it where there is good, such as the growing spiritual movement in the West.
You are just being an idiot and refusing to see what I am saying: Be true to your words, stop misrepresenting other’s arguments, and consider the criticism of others.
I criticize the West for its religious, economic, societal, and political system but “am in high heavens” (to use your own words) about its intellectual and artistic traditions.
I say Western culture is barbaric, I don’t say every Western person is barbaric. In fact, sorry to say Neitzsche, but I have so many Westerner friends which are twice as spiritual as you are. I don’t see what is spiritual about you - what I see is blind nationalism. You don’t practice Yoga and nor have you studied the philosophy in any degree of depth.
If you are going to defend dharma first know what you are talking about and do it sincerely, and not out of blind nationalism or just to spite your class mates. Your intentions are immature and frankly wrong.
Once again, you are being an imbecile. I don’t do what I do to spite my classmates, ignoramus. I do what I do to challenge Western pretensions of racial and ideological superiority, the underlying notions that make my peers, my fellow Texans, my fellow Americans, and Westerners think the way they do.
Of course they are twice as spiritual as I am. I have repeatedly acknowledged most, if not all, people on this forum are more knowledgeable about philosophy and spirituality than I am. If I claimed otherwise, then why the hell have I never posted about spirituality and philosophy on the other sections of the forum? But you choose not to acknowledge this.
However, you do make a point. I indeed need to learn more, much more, about my faith before I can [U]properly[/U] defend it. Still, I am knowledgeable enough that I can rebuke accusations such as “Hinduism is nothing more than paganism and a collection of rituals,” teach someone about Indian history, and so on. Notice that I have [U]never[/U] argued for or defended something regarding Santana Dharma that I did not know about. You yourself know that I have repeatedly PM’D you when I had a question about SD.
What nationalism? My criticisms of the West? My appreciation for all cultures and religions in this world except for Abrahamic ones? My ethnic pride but scorn for India’s future and Bhakti paths?
I have spent time making over 3000 posts on this forum because I enjoy discussing here. I have never claimed this forum is the world. You are making silly argumments that because people on this forum deny the origins of Yoga, that this is indicative of the entire West.
Just as I never claimed this forum was the world, no? Filthy hypocrite.
Once again, you misrepresent what I have been saying all along.
I have repeatedly said that the reason people on this forum deny the origins of Yoga is [U]characteristic[/U] of the anti-Hindu biases that litter Western academia and media.
I have never said
Yoga Forums = World.
Westerners say yoga predates Hinduism = Opinion of all Westerners.
You also say just because your school mates make fun of say Emerson that this is indicative of the entire West. For you this is some kind of popularity contest. So only 10% of the people you survey would not know who Heisenberg is - so? Only 10% of people know what E=mc^2 means and yet that single equation is responsible for the most dramatic development in the West: the atom bomb. Just because the masses do not know of Schrodinger, does not negate the fact on how dramatic the contributions of Schrodinger are to the West. Without Schrodinger we would not have computers.
You are so damn dense.
I have never said that my school is indicative of the entire West. I was using a specific example to prove me point that Emerson and Thoreau no longer hold as much impact in America as they once did. This is merely a fact. Am I not allowed to use evidence to prove my point?
It is not a popularity contest but a contest of importance and impact. My point was the majority of the people neither know nor [B][U]care[/U][/B] about the impact their scientists have had on their society. All they want is their IPod, IPad, Sex, Drugs, Porn, movies, job, and money.
Pay attention to my words idiot. I never implied the lack of importance they hold today is indicative of the inferiority of their theories.
Again you are doing a disservice to what is suppose to be your own cause by denying how prevalent and wide reaching Vedic dharma has been in the West. You continue to see the West with myopic eyes, without trying to understand it critically and in a balanced way. When I showed you how new thought Christianity is tolerant, accepting and pluralistic, you dismiss it by saying, “Well, they are considered heretics anyway” So? Does that change the fact that new thought Christianity has happened and is now changing how Christians view the world?
These “Christians” are in the minority and hold little to no influence in today’s society. Fundamentalist Christianity is the norm and is extremely resilient to external adulteration. America was practically shaped by the Puritans and their intolerant and ignorant brood and their influence is seen on the impact their ideology has had on conservative politics.
In short, such views are not changing how Christians view the world. I can ask my parents, who have lived in American longer than you have been alive, about the “impact” our views had on Christians, and they would laugh their asses off.
If you visit America, you can see what I mean when I utter with contempt, the name “Republican Party.”
Earlier, you rejected all the modern Western intellectuals bringing spirituality to the West like Rupert Sheldrake, Ken Wilber because they are not popular and are scoffted by your peers. If you were really supporting the Vedic cause, you would welcome this, not reject it. The reason you do not welcome this is because you are a nationalist, you want to keep Vedic dharma exclusively in india, rather than allow it to go beyond the borders of India and spread to the world. The reason for this is purely your ego - so you can spite your classmates. You are not willing to share Vedic dharma because you want to posssess it to make yourself proud. Well sorry Vedic dharma is not your possession and never was, it has always been for all of humanity. There are many Western people I know personally who understand Vedic dharma better than you. This is a disgrace for you Neitzsche. As an Indian Hindu it is you who should haver the superior understanding, and not the other way around. You would - if you stopped treating Vedic dharma like a means to win trival arguments with your classmates.
I suggest you stop it with the “because your peers” statements. They are not true and you merely say them to put up a show for the snickering onlookers. This is not Dharmic, Hindu, or Yogic. You have strayed from your path.
I actually said that Dharmic idealism has made little to no dent in the fabric of Western ideology. This is a fact. These Western spirituals have failed.
You are lying way too much at this point. As this is a rehash of your previous arguments, so I can skip these.
Yep, these are misconceptions which are spread in the West. Rather than sitting there complaining about it, do something about it by spreading the right information and dispelling the misconceptions. Do it in an objective, mature and balanced way - not like an idiot.
Shit head, I have already told you in a previous discussion what I have done to “spread the right information.”
Rubbish, it is a well known fact that most of the development of physics took place in the West and nowhere else. This is why it is in the West the steam engine, railways, factories, automobiles, aeroplanes, electronics were all developed. Prior to that there was something called natural philosophy, but physics as an empirical and experimental tradition was developed out of Western empiricism - the foundations were laid down by Francis Bacon, Hobbes, Locke et al.
I cannot see any Muslims, Indians or Chinese on that list Neitzsche. I can see that the history of physics is pretty much exclusively a Western affair. It is exclusive to the West as Yoga is as exclusive to India. If you cannot accept this obvious fact that physics was developed in Western culture, how you can you expect Westerners to say that Yoga was developed from Indian culture, you hypocrite?
Thank you for the information Western supremacist. 
I think you should register at Stormfront you hypocrite. 
You are an idiot. While Westerners made most of the contributions of Physics, there were still more fundamental ones made by Chinese, Muslims, Indians, and Greeks. Your posting a timeline from a Western biased website does not prove your point. I suggest you start researching Muslim polymaths from the Islamic Golden Age and move backwards from there.
And once again, you just shit on everything you said in your argument against Quetzalcoatl. This is not being objective, factual, and honest.
You still fail to understand that material knowledge does not belong to anyone. The technique of making rust-resistant iron does not “belong” to the Indians as must as the compass does not belong to the Chinese.
However, Tai Chi is Chinese and much as Yoga is Indian. This does not mean it “belongs” to them, but it also does not mean that anyone can just take it, insultingly commercialize it, use it for their selfish benefit, and still go around shitting on the Chinese and the Indians.
Cultural practices must be imparted with the right foundation. That is all I have been saying.
Unfortunately, we Hindus have suffered greatly by being extremely liberal in this regard.
India did not develop physics because India was focussed on spirituality. The West developed physics because it was focussed on physical matter. Physics is the culmination of Western empirical thought.
Mostly true. However, Indians discovered tidbits of fundamental physics knowledge here and there. I suggest you re-read your bitching against Quetzalcoatl. :lol:
There is no hypocrisy here. Indian science, logic, culture is vastly superior. India have superior sciences like metaphysical sciences. They are superior because while physics is limited only to the physical world, Indian sciences go beyond the physical into other dimensions that physics cannot touch. I never said Indian physics, chemistry etc was superior to the west. When it comes to material science and technology there should not even be a doubt how vastly superior the West is.
There is hypocrisy here. Physics is nothing more than an extension of math, which itself is applied logic. If Indian logical systems were superior, they would have developed Physics.
Our systems, although they were good, regrettably did not take us as far as the Westerners.
That is because I am humble so I correctly can evaluate where I am in terms of practical realisation of Yoga. I have indeed done many kinds of Yoga: Satyananda yoga, Anandamrga Yoga, Raja Yoga and Dynamic Yoga. I had a regular meditation practice for many years and I still meditate on and off. Now I am taking it to the next level.
You are sitting there telling Western people “We will not teach you barbarians OUR yoga” When you have never done Yoga yourself and nor have you studied the philosophy to any considerable depth. This is what makes you look like a joke Neitzsche.
You are not humble.
You have no knowledge of Physics or Mathematics and you go around trying to act like a bad ass by giving incorrect definitions of simple concepts like Energy and Color, while failing miserably in teaching quantum mechanics and relativity. You are stupid in Physics and Math, admit it. Waxing philosophy without understanding the logic behind the subjects only leads to theoretical illusions.
I guess we are both equal, huh?
Or does one not need to have complete knowledge and understanding of a thing to make their opinions on it?
You decide, hypocrite.
Of course I wouldn’t. Yoga does belong to Vedic dharma - but it does not belong to you. You don’t even practice Yoga. Similarly physics belongs to Western empirical and materialist tradition. Just as you do not need to get the permission of a Westerner to study physics, they don’t need to get permission from you to do yoga.
Do not say such stupid things that the Westerners need permission from Indian Hindus to study and practice Yoga. This is not what it says in our texts where it says we should spread our ways to the entire world. Our texts say manava dharma is the highest - not ones individual dharma.
The way I see it I will impart Vedic dharma to anybody who sincerenly seeks it, I don’t care what race they are, what gender, what sexuality or what age. Just as the Vedic risis did. Your forceful statements that you can personally vett who gets Vedic dharma based on what nationality or race they are are an absolute disgrace. Like I said I know so many Westerners who are twice as deserving as you are.
Yeah, exactly your intentions are nationalism. Santana dharma is secondary to you, you just use it as a prop to make yourself feel better about your racial heritage - without actually making an effort to understand it or practice it yourself.
I am remaining true to the universal vision of the founders of Santana dharma - “to make the whole world Aryan” You are a disgrace to their vision Neitzsche. They did not say they are only going to make India Aryan, they said the whole world. Dharma is universal and is for all of humanity - this is why is also called manava dharma.
Nationalism is an outdated idea in the global world we are living today because it is not tenable. Ideas, practices, products all get shared between cultures. Globalization is a fact, which we all need to accept. Stop being a neanderthal and get with the times - by the way the actual concept of globalization itself is vedic: vasudeva kutumbukum.
Today we are living in a Western materialist and consumer global world and dharma is dying out the world over. If you do not fight for dharma now, then dharma will be extinct on this planet. You need to think beyond the borders of India, because in todays worlds borders are no longer significant. Vedic dharma needs to spread to the entire world.
Contribute to the cause of dharma and not to the cause of winning trivial arguments with your class mates because your country gave the zero
Nobody is Hindu just because they are born into a Hindu family. You are Hindu if you practice and accept and understand its tenets. Being Hindu is something realised. The word “Hindu” is used as synonym of “Aryan” in later Indian texts, both of which are a quality of character you cultivate.
If you want to be Hindu then learn more about your dharma and start to practice it. You can start by being honest, balanced and objective. I will go out of a limb and say: anybody who cannot be reasonable, honest and objective is NOT a Hindu. The Vedas say over and over again: cultivate the intellect, develop the intellect, refine the intellect. Practice satya in your life, always speak truth. You are not being true to yourself right now, especialy with your hypocrisy on how you own Yoga and the West do not own physics. You have double standards - one set for the West and one for yourself.
Neitzche, grow up. You have a lot of energy and passion but it is completely misplaced. That same energy when put to the cause of dharma will turn you into a worthy warrior of dharma. Help in bringing dharma to this world - or otherwise stop calling yourself Hindu, and admit you’re just an Indian nationalist.
O.K Dharmc imperialist. Have fun majestically traveling around the world, civilizing mlecchas and non-Aryans.
But I think you will last only two days MAX before you come back in bits and pieces.
I think you should register at Stormfront you hypocrite.
