Untitled A sane man's lamentation in the chaotic nation on the verge of assumed pseudo-rebirth.

This Pyre Will Burn…! Sorry, I can not comment on the article but the discussion has taken a wider turn towards South asia. So, my interest now has a locus standi.

At the time of disappearance of the British Power from the subcontinent the Muslims were hoodwinked by Jinnah when he found that he could muster support from the British if he collaborated in the intensification of chaos which the British wanted. Thus, Pakistan.

Jinnah did not have the intelligence, honesty or the broad vision for the betterment of people of the ill-fated Pakistan , as Nehru had for India and Indians. The constitutin of India was framed under Dr B R Ambedkar who was a representative of the Untouchable Class in India's Hindus. This was a very deliberate and noble effort on the part of Congress' leadership.

I can guarantty that chaos in Pakistan will accelerate and become deadlier unless a Hindu chairs a rewriting of Pakistan's new constitution and the minorities are given real equality and respect.

The Holiday Season Azra: What is your point? Why do you restrict to monotheistic religions? All religions demand an unquestioning faith assured by self-sacrifice.

scanning the interactors I found your comment! I wish people think like you!!

I would like to draw the attention of all interactors to learn a lesson from your comment!!!

Needless to say I agree with your statement a hundred per cent. But to answer your question at the end needs illumination from you. May be it will bring sense to some!!!!

Search for Origins of Mahayana Buddhism Eklavya and mahfari:
Both of you have been at each other at cross-purposes for long time. Fundamental objective of interactions should be to make an effort to know what the other person has been saying and get across clearly. Two people may reach a consensus or fail to understand each other. There is really no point in arguing ad infinitum. A hundred interactions are enough!!

Could you please provide more details of Dr. Chand's statement being discussed here?

Search for Origins of Mahayana Buddhism I am sorry I am not familiar with everyone's viewpoints on the board. But I would like to welcome even perfunctory or even deficient attempts by people of various religions to discover, nay even create common points among the scriptural positions of various religions.

If we make even childish attempts to forge the common points we may succeed in initiating/developing a new paradigm for religious interactions.

No matter how unfactual such detente is the need of the hour.

Search for Origins of Mahayana Buddhism Re: # 214: Eklavya ji, Mahmoud is a muslim so it is creditable that he takes interest in Buddhist things. You are being a bit harsh about the content desired.

Search for Origins of Mahayana Buddhism Very interesting article, particularly the summation of Hinayan and Mahayan. I wish the article had the analytical vs. descritive depth. This notwithstanding avery enjoyable snippet.

6th December 1992 Re: # 70: Jang Sahab "Churri" bagal mein nahiin kalai mein pahnii jaatii hai! Salim is our Chowk's Rafique Zakaria. I wish there were a million more like him.

At any rate interesting to read your adherence to the concept of karma.

6th December 1992 #66 refers to Salim Chauhan.

6th December 1992 Happy to see your continued good work.

6th December 1992 Qasmi Sahab donot oversimplify a complictaed issue because then you are problem maker not desirous of the dvelopment of detente.
Problem arose in the activities of the perpetrators of which the chief was Jinnah! Truly a British agent.

Whence Then is Evil? Regarding #8, #120, I agree with the censors.

Whence Then is Evil? REGARDING #120: WHAT HAPPENMED TO YOU ECHOBOOM?

Whence Then is Evil? Due to cOmputer problems, I could not enter in the discussion earlier. Congratulations, Gill Sahab, for bringinging another unpopular, among Muslims, but deep subject to fore.

Your last para:“Theism, as a way of defining God, is dead. God can no longer be understood with credibility as a Being, supernatural in power, dwelling above the sky and prepared to invade human history periodically to enforce the divine will. So, most theological God-talk today is meaningless unless we find a new way to speak of God.”
I agree with. But the new way HAS been pointed out 2000 years before Buddha and Gandhi ji in India.

BUT WILL THE WORLD HEED AND ACT RATIONALLY?
