will wait till you answer my question on bhagwath gita....
Looks like i have more knowledge about hinduism being a atheist.
Yes cow slaughter ban law is passed in indian assembly right ??? if it is banned why is it banned ???????
is it banned to deny other minorities who consume beef as a source of protien or is it religiously motivated ?????
I am a HINDU by birth, My father has never taught me about Hinduism or any religion, thats the reason that even do not go to Temple or any worshiping place.
if you want to know more about Hindusim, then I am not the right person, may be you can meet Sri Sri Ravi Shankar or Jaki Vasudev.
and for the question about denouncing caste, India is a complex nation and for over 100's of years the Sudras have been oppressed by the upper caste and becaue of that they are now given a fair chance to compete with the rest in the name of reservations, and if at this point we denounce caste, it will not support the upliftment of people from the Sudra class and doing so will also take away the fair chance they have against the caste system.
As i said in the earlier post, you have quoted the same what i have told from Gita.
I appreciate your answer - but my question was simple, do caste system if part of hinduism or no ?
If no then why does bhagwath gita states it ?
If yes then why are you denying it ?
And if yes caste system does exist - what if a white woman or african wants to be convert to hinduism what caste would they be in ?
Gita divides the people based on profession and that does not have anything to do with caste, do you actually know that caste is some thing like Yadavas, Jatt, Gounders, Chettiyar, Mudaliya, Menon, Nair, Nambodari, etc. which is no where mentioned in Vedas, Upanishad or Gita. These are are developed over time like SHIA and Sunny in Islam based on customs.
Thanks that answered by questions, hence you tend to agree caste system does exist in Hinduism, does a persons caste is fixed by their birth or if a Shudra wants to become brahman is it allowed and if a brahman wants to become a Shudra is it allowed ???? or it is just by birth ???
And if other people from different religions say for exg Persians want to convert into Hinduism how would you define what castes would they be in ?
Like say for exg will a Iranian mullah be allowed to become a Brahman priest if he converts to hinduism ???
and because some subarmaina swamy says do you think that people are going to change their religion, i don't understand who fools like him are given too much attention.
The only hindrance i see is the caste system ?? like i mentioned before - if the Persians wants to convert back to hinduism how would hinduism differentiate people based on castes in persia ? will a Iranian mullah be allowed to become hindu priest ??? thx
if that is the case they can declare a new caste name and ask the Government to approve the caste. caste is just a representaion of a group to get reservaton.
sure why not? have you not heared about famous Holywood actor like Julia Robers who follow Hinduism, do they say they joined a certain caste inorder to become HINDU.
I take that point as Caste system is by birth and one does not have a liberty to choose to change caste after his/her birth. (agreed) every religions has its own way of dealing things.
but my question was what if other person wants to convert into hinduism what caste would they be in ?
I some times feel hinduism has lot to offer than islam/chirtianity or any other religions but only question what if someone wants to be part of hinduism what caste would they be in ?
NO NO he wont beThe only hindrance i see is the caste system ?? like i mentioned before - if the Persians wants to convert back to hinduism how would hinduism differentiate people based on castes in persia ? will a Iranian mullah be allowed to become hindu priest ??? thx

Govt can write many rules but what happens to the rule written by Lord Krishna himself in bhagwat gita ???? And one more very important question is are you stating the Texts in Hindu holy books can be edited ????does it make sense to you ? if rules can be changed now to accomodate new people in it ? what happens to moksha ???? the ultimate freedom from the cycle of life and birth ???
What caste is julia roberts ???? by the defination of hinduism she is a working woman so a shudra ???? or Dalit ????
Can any other hindu indian members verify what ashokdiva has stated "can the Holy texts of Hinduism be edited" ?????
My question arises from the assement ---> India is gonna be a superpower in the future as india's clout grows there would be a tendency to move more towards hinduism and which would happen mean defacto the brahmans would have more power, so it is safe to assume a muslim/jain/christian/sikh/tamil who ever wants to convert back to hinduism would prefer a higher caste than a lower caste.. just my opinion here!!!!
and not to forget there will droves of people from india and outside india who would wanna convert into hinduism if that happens and if they choose to be brahmans all of them will Hinduism allow such thing?
This is a very valid point and needs a crystal clear answer..
Contrary to what you might think........confirming ones caste makes him/her eligible for several government privileges reserved only for the "lower" caste people.......these privileges are not available for the "upper" caste people.......
Can any other hindu indian members verify what ashokdiva has stated "can the Holy texts of Hinduism be edited" ?????
I am sorry i am bit offended here
1) you clearly state you dont want others to convert into Hinduism
So if a indian atheist or hindu low caste wants to convert into other religion why the opposition ????
you clearly make the point - you are doomed if you do and you are doomed if you dont,
to be honest what if the 300 million plus minorities in india, sikhs/christians/muslims all want to convert back to hinduism ????? they cant can they.. tut tut ......
Why the ban on cow slaughter in india then ??????????
You don't know, but let me tell you......choosing any one of them might cost you your life....depending upon where you are....
For example, if you are in Pakistan, don't choose to be a Shia.....see link below....
