Crash Course on Hinduism

[Bitter Melon]

you are free to believe what you want but don't call me such thing thank you. I am a mere mortal

That too is your choice. Does not change the reality, but it is just like a Lamborgini thinking itself as a mere automobile.

Reincarnation is one of the pillars of Hinduism. That is how cyclical nature of life itself is explained. Otherwise, the world would be in a linear progression to Armageddon.

I meant not as important as others .

Not sure .

Twice Born .

My aim is to be reincarnated somewhere in the middle, either as a good animal or a middling human.

Though some might say I might be reincarnated as an 阿修羅 ("Axiuluo" = Asura) because I have a really bad temper.

Sorry, it is not twice born. That is for caste system and does not explain rebirth.

I meant not as important as others .

It is important and that is why the rituals after death are considered so important. You really should not be speaking about Hinduism since you have no clue whatsoever.

This concept of Reincarnation is very tough concept to understand .

Another concept of World being a mere illusion is another that makes me pull my hair .

I know !!! But we don't go talking about Re incarnation .
Its mostly about Karma , Dharma , Moksha , Bhakti , Yoga etc .

About Kal Chakr its mentioned in vedas and i do believe that the vedas are the first divine revelations from the Supreme Creator on the ancient Rig Vedic tribes and that has continued.

Real Choosen people are the ancient rig vedic tribes and thier Descendants.

Just because Allah has given free will and some of us vast resources that does not give us divinity In fact that is the very line thought that leads a person to turn in to a pharoh

Temper is okay. Even being born as an Asura is okay, that just means you will be born in a non-Dharmic religion.

Reincarnation is a very natural concept for Chinese, since Buddhism has been a part of our culture for thousands of years.

Westerners always say "If you're not a Christian you go to Hell forever". It's very black and white, very absolutist.

But for us it's more about what we will be reincarnated as in the next life. The Chinese underworld (地獄 = Naraka) is only a temporary transition point before reincarnation. You only stay there as long as it takes to balance your karma, in preparation for the next life.

I wanted to come back as a captain in command of a spaceship.

That is because most of the time we are dealing with this life as it is here now, and not thinking of what to do after death. That part is left to the Pandits and our heirs only after we die.
