Chanakya's views on god




   
The simplification of the chanakya's shlokas


when an icon is carved according to the  iconographical dictates of the Āgama śāstra it is a symbol of the divine.

When brahmins perform the elaborate prāṇa-pratiṣṭha rites according to the Āgama/Tantra, then the Supreme Being by dint of his/her omnipresence and omni-benevolence energizes and locates itself within the sacred icon in order to be a link between the two realms of sakala and nishkala.

The Āgama says:–
bhagavat sānidhyam arcakasya tapo balāt
The presence of the Divine in the icon is dependent upon the meditative powers of the attendant priest.

Hindus don’t HAVE to worship anything since we have been gracefully spared any commandments from on high!! We can commune with the Divine as we please without compulsion. We have a far more informal and intimate association with the Lord or lady of the Universe treating Him/Her as our most intimate lover and friend! He/She doesn’t demand from us any worship and gracefully accepts whatever worship we care to offer.

We can recite mantras with the use of rosaries - just like Muslims and Catholics.
We can meditate like the Buddhists and Taoists
We can dance like the dervishes
We can sing like the gospel choirs
We can prostrate and fast like Muslims
We can do all of these or none of these.

The purpose of idols or rather ICONS to be less offensive, is simply to focus the mind.

Our exterior ritual technology consists of 3 basic instruments:—
yantra — geometrical designs
mantras — sacred texts chanted aloud
mūrti — icons of various sorts

Interior spiritual practice is visualization in meditation which is considered the highest of all practices.

Our condolences to all those seekers and devotees who have been constrained and limited in the scope of their spiritual practices! Come and join us and be liberated!!

Is prophet muhammad really mentioned in the vedas ?

prophet muhammad is mentioned in the vedas is claimed  by mr zakir naik alone . His excited dumb followers as well as some dumb sickular Hindus accepted his statements without even cross checking the statements . some Quotations which mr naik exploits is Rig veda 1.13.3 ,1.53.9 and  5.5.2 yajurveda 20.37  there are many more verses like these but here mr naik delibrately chose to exploit is the word ( nara shamsaha which means praised by men) he quotes all the verses in which narashamsa is been mentioned and misleads people by saying its prophet muhammad. vedas contain hymns and verses for devas like  indra ,vayu ,agni etc and there is no specific mention of muhammad . look at the following hymns rig veda 1.13.3 narasamsamhiha priyamasminajna upahvaye | madhujihvat haviskrtam || i kindle the fire in this yagna which is beloved and benificient to people ,the sweet tounged and in which obligations are put. rig veda  5.5.2 narasamsah susu...

Caste system in Hinduism

So it doesn’t matter how many verses in puranas  it only matters what the shruti (  Vedasa and upanishads) teach. The principal verse in the Veda describing the caste system comes from Rig Veda 10:90:12 - this verse is the supreme judgement in this matter - It says that the four castes are the limbs of society like that of the Cosmic Being. How does it describe them? From the mouth of the Social Being - the Brahmins arose. From the arms - the Kshatriyas were created. From the thighs the Vaishyas too [were created] From the feet - the Shudras were BORN. So this seminal verse on the varna-system clearly states that the 3 varnas are “created” but only the Sudra Varna is born. This is then confirmed in the Upanishads (Vajra-sūcika Upaniṣad) many Smritis and Itihasas . This is the case of uniformity of birth established — EVERYONE is born a Sudra by DEFAULT. Confirmed in the Mahābhārata:– The cause of brahmanhood is not birth, or sacraments, or learning or pro...
