I am a Hindu  because it professes Non-violence – “Ahimsa Paramo Dharma” – Non violence is the highest duty. I am a Hindu because it doesn’t conditions my mind with any faith system. I am a hindu because I respect and take ideas from books like quran,bible etc.

Friends,

I feel that what we are , are not due to our particular religion but due to religioness alone. Is there any religion who all followers are good ? or Is there any religion whose all followers are  bad ?no In all the religions there are good people too & bad people too, so we can conclude that it is not religion in particular which makes us good human or bad human.

It is our basic nature, If we are religious we shall be religious in all the circumstances, in all the sects , in all the religion but if we are bad we shall be bad in all the religions.

Religiousness of the human is the basic content of the human, I feel that there is just the difference of words alone , otherwise all religions are the same.

I agree to lilimira's views, she has too explained the same idea but from different angle.

Regards.

I have used my brain that’s why i am not an ATHIST. does changing religion show how inteligent a person is? definitly not. I have used my brain that’s why i am not thinking about converting. what is the ultimate point of a religion ? to be closer to god. i am feel i am closer to god by following a hindu way of life, you fell closer to god by following a islamic way of life. we both are doing the same thing but the routes are different.

/quote

don’t be a frog in a well

/end quote

 

I get the meaning but I never heard this expression before, is this a English expression or is it a translation of an expression in your language?

Oohna , it is in local tongue. IT came from a small story, There were 2 frogs in a well, both tought that the well is only the world, and there is nothing outside. one night it rained and the well filled up, one of the frog jumped out of the world saying that it will explore the world, will the other did not want to explore.
it just mean “come out of closed(well) mindset and explore the world”
