Can You Please explain about your Religion and Belief?

Question

If anything is to be changed what is that and how can you do that.

Answer 1

hinduism...
==========

The back bone of hinduism is its deep philosophy, which many other religions lack.

temples, idols, rituals all make just 5-10% of hinduism and are only tip of the iceberg

The real hinduism lies in its deep philosophies of Vedanta, Sankhya, Yoga, Tantra, dealing mainly with mysteries of Life, death, universe, God etc

Hinduism does not condemn non-hindus to hell or call them ignorant.... atheists included

it is time now that people reject the social evils, false rituals etc spread due to invasions and ignorance

it is now time for a renaissance... to bring up the real philosophy of hinduism....and know ourselves that our religion is so great...not petty rituals.

Answer 2

I am a proud Hindu.
Hinduism ,a very accommodative religion,where unlike in other religion you have the freedom to even see the god in one's self.You are not completely separated from God.There is an element of God in every one,when you understand that God is omnipresent.
As for changes,the casteism is only a social order,not something to view with disdain.Only the discrimination between the castes which is more a fault on the part of the Hindus (rather than Hinduism) that has to be eradicated.

Answer 3

Sir,

I am an Indian and in the wordily sense a HINDU so my religion is Hinduism, as per present terminology.

But I say My religion is Sanathana Dhrma ,preached by the ancient Rishis and Vedas.I believe in the VeDIC Literature,I believe in the Great Epics Ramayana,Maha Bharata and Maha Bhaagavatam.I believe in Upanishads.
I am convinced that they show the way to the TRUTH the SATYAM,SIVAM,and SUNDARAM.

The thing that is to be changed is my Manas (mind),and anthah karuna.My polluted ignorant Bhavaas.These scripture are capable, when read and followed with devotion to change the poluted ''I " feeling to pure feeling and make undersatand that I is THAT.Tatvam asi.

Answer 4

I've made a religion out of being happy. It's about accepting things as they are, rather than as you think they ought to be. So if anything, the change is within. Though for the most part, I'm 'getting there'.

For want of a better term I call myself a Taoist. But whether I'm what other people think of when they hear the term, I don't know.

Thank you for your question.

Answer 5

I'm not sure if it truly "explains" the origin or existence of other religions, although their existence certainly is a main theme of much of the Old Testament Scripture. So much so, that one of the main commandments (of the infamous 10), is "Thou shalt have no other gods before me". There a numerous references to various other gods and idols in nearly all the books of the bible, so it is obviously a common theme. In terms of explaining the origin of worship of these gods, there doesn't seem to be any one overarching theme that I could find in my brief search. I think there is certainly some scripture that points to the existence of God as seen in creation so that men are "without excuse" for rejecting God. This plays, of course, right into the concept that nearly every civilization throughout history has worshiped and/or created deities. Some would point to something "natural" wired in the brain or some primal instinct that explains why every society in history seems to have created a religion or deity of some sort to worship. Christians (or other deists) would point to this as evidence that God does exist and the search for God is an innate instinct wired by a creator in much the same way as an atheist would seek to explain this as a primal protective instinct or some other rational explanation. I think the general Christian response is that humans are created in God's image and are wired to have relationship with the creator, and that all people have an innate instinct that something greater than themselves exists in the universe and is responsible for it's creation.

Answer 6

technically i should not reply as i do not have a religion!

but in regards to beliefs..

i am hedgewitch, who believes in the power and love of mother nature, our ancestors and the spirits of each element.

if i could change anything it would be to abolish all organised religions as they just encourage wars and fighting, an instead just ask people to offer blessings/prayers/thanks, whichever they prefer, so that we can move closer to living in better harmony, respect and love.

BTW, i do not have rose-tinted specs on!

i know there will be conflicts and disagreements.

but without all the man-made, manufactured , power-fuelled materialistic religions that are around, i think we'd all get along much better!

love and light to you all

blessed be

Answer 7

My religion is the Hindu religion. It is an extremely tolerant religion. My religion is my belief. Nothing is required to be changed in the Hindu religion. It is a perfect religion.

Answer 8

I follow the teachings of Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Devi, "Amma". I am a devout devotee of Amma. Really, Her religion is Love. It is universally understood across religions, cultures, races, cultures, languages and castes.

Amma teaches us that the best way to purify ourselves and become Love is through two ways. One is to be of service to others, that it is our duty to help elevate the suffering of others. And the other way to purify ourselves is through our devotion towards our guru or diety of choice, such as for a Christian it would be Jesus, Buddha for a Buddhist, and anyone of the innumerable forms or many gurus for a Hindu. I give all my devotion to Amma.

She explains the many ways we can help our minds focus on God more. We can do this by singing bhajans, japa (mantra reptition), manasa puja (mental worship), always saying Divine Names, to see God in all living and nonliving beings, and prayers.

And that we all need to awaken the Universal Motherhood that is inherent in all of us to show love and compassion for others.

Ever since I followed Her teachings for over a year, doing many of the suggested practices, I have felt tremendous difference within myself. I have not only felt more love spring forth within my heart, I have experienced even more blessings and grace in my life. They truly work, and I have grown spiritually the fastest under Her guidiance these past two years than I ever did in my entire life.

Answer 9

I do not follow any religion. I do believe in God and i think there is some kind of power above all humans. However, i do not believe in what the Bible or any religion book says or the rules they make that tell us how to live. I would consider myself as a good person, i try no to lie, i don't curse, i don't steal, i don't do anything that i think is disrespectful, shows lack of manners, or hurts anyone in anyway.

Answer 10

My religion is hinduism and even with its some later added social evils, is still the best in comparison to other religions prevailing
