nope...false again....I am saying that you shall show respect for others Religion....just like you want other to have respect for yours.

I am saying that they have equal right to their belief as you have to yours.

I am saying that since none of us can't prove that our Religion are better or more true then others, we then need to be careful with throwing stones and make them lower then ourself.

We point to books and other thing for proof, I am sure other can point to books and scriptures that are far older then Christianity.

Mankind have been here for millions of years, we have always believed in something, will all those poor souls before Major Religion be doomed because they did not have the right belief?.....

What with all those who believed in Thor and Odin....did all go to Hell?
What about all those who believed in wood God...House God or you name it....shall they be doomed....why...they had a belief that they pray to...that gave comfort...that they respected.....who can say we have discovered the ultimate truth? Who can say we are much better then them?....We have sure been more cruel then them in the name of our God!

Have I preached Jesus and that you must be saved? No, I have not! Show me where I have, or even where I have inferred this?

Dear Friends,

Belief word has such a vast meaning that it is difficult to describe. No one must attack the belief of others. It is the belief system which when attacked arouses passions and hatred and the result is always negative. Hindus believe in COW as God. That is the belief of certain Hindus. Whether we believe it or not we cannot hurt those who believe in it. There are so many beliefs and if they break a law then it is for the law to deal with such cases. Eg. There are such belief as to sacrifice a boy or girl to gain something. This is against the law although people do go ahead privately and do it (In India at least). Then there is a belief of Sati (Burning on a pyre by the widow). If anything is illegal Law will take care of it but we cannot hurt anyone's sentiment.

As for Respected Shri Satya Baba --- WITH APOLOGIES TO THE GREAT SAINT --- one spiritual person told me this about the above great Saint and I recounted the same to my Guru subsequently:

Whenever some special person visited the above Saint, he would welcome with some presentation to that person i.e. presenting Sweets out of nowhere or any such miracle. So once the Most Popular Magician of our Country (India) went to meet this Saint to prove that he is not a Saint but just a magician. When this man was invited by the Great Baba, Baba presented this magician with "Sandesh" a form of Sweet which is dry in nature. This magician was well prepared. He performed some trick and Lo Behold there were 1 Rasgolla in the hand of the Baba and Rasgollas are a wet form of Sweet. It is difficult to perform this magic. And then something following between the two which I do not wish to write further.

I was reprimanded by my Guru for repeating the above for the simple reason as the above Saint is Universally known and is highly spiritual and has lakhs and lakhs of Devotees around the world and many have benefitted. Everyone can never benefit because the total belief is always lacking in so many. Again with Due Apologies to the above Saint whom I highly respect even though I follow someone else, I was told I can only argue or talk about people of my status and not so high above in any negative way unless it is proved to the contrary in public.

So I always keep this in mind that all beliefs of everyone are to be respected and we can have a healthy discussion without hurting the sentiments of that person and blaming the belief. For us so many beliefs maybe totally wrong but for those who follow them it is absolutely right.

If you totally believe a 3rd rate Doctor you will be cured by his medicine. Belief has so much strength for it works Psychologically more than the medicine. Hence never attack the belief of others.

My sincerest apologies to those who have been hurt by the above since I have given example of the Great Saint and many members in this forum maybe HIS followers. I do not mean to hurt anyone.

Pravin Kumar
