Lol "Final day of judgment", "Eternal hell", "Eternal Paradise", 'Phopethood", "Eternal enemy of God", and "Angles" lol all copied
Podcast/talk was awesome One suggestion is that don't say hmm.. , oh yeah , yes.. yes.. in between the interview when the author is speaking, pls it becomes distracting .
Really man. Every topic was so well discussed and it felt kind of a distraction/noise between such fine discussion. Kudos to the team who put forward such nice brilliant ideas and shape the informed perception in the mind of viewers.
Very fascinating indeed. ❤😊 Devdutt ji talked about Devi who can never be looked upon as romantic partner. But what about Kumarsambhava Or say Kamakshya Devi? Curious to know about this.

Sir, do you believe in such kinds of deities and idols. Are you saying that there will be rain when the rain god reached in a desert area of Africa and Gulf countries? Hinduism means sex and physical activities. Whatever seen by eyes become a god, if it is differently behaves or bigger in shapes, Is it? The language written on the sculptures of deities are Hebrew or Mishr (Egyptian) scripts. Hinduism used naked sculptures to attract people to their vision of religion. Naked private parts of a deity attracted ladies and few men to visit the temple to see the naked figures often. You cannot prove that Hinduism started in India, but so many proof available to prove that Roman Catholic decision of Christianity,Hinduism and Islam are derived from Egyptian culture. In Christianity King Constantine brought the culture and indicted into Christianity in the third century. The way of Sun god worship and making sculptures of deities are the work of Constantine who himself described as the Sun god. Statue of Liberty is the sculpture of Constantine as the Sun god with spikes of sun rays on his head. Shiva is the sculpture of Pharaoh the Egyptian King who himself described as the Snake god. Krishna, Ram, Sita and Mahabharata war all resemble with King Pharoahs and his force of war with chariots and horses.
Snakes, animals like elephant lion monkeys private parts of human are different and attracting things to the ancient people of Africa. Wild animals were present in African forests only at the ancient time. So those animals became gods. Sex is having very power to attract people in seconds. It is a mind changing factor. So they made naked sculpture to attract people and to visit them very often and it became a religion. In Islam also sex is the main principle to attract the human beings with a law that they can marry many women as they desire, which popularised Islam very fast. Why ladies attract Muslims very fast? It is because of their penis which are big and circumcised. Seeing a circumcised penis is very attractive to ladies. So they are easily go to them after avoiding everything behind. Once they see the penis of a circumcised Muslim, ladies forget everything including her culture and religion, parents etc.

If there were no Bhakti and Puja before 600 years ago then how could such mentioned in Valmiki's Ramayana?
