NOTE: We tried hard to get a Catholic priest in this video but the Diocese that runs where I live declined participating this video. Also, if I asked literally EVERY religion in history, this video would have been damn near 10 hours long. But like, comment if you like this video and if it does well I can always do a part 2 with religions I missed or underrepresented. Regardless would love to hear your thoughts, because I feel like religion and this need to fill a spiritual void has become more popular. Are you religious and/or considered following a religion recently? Let me know Also our sponsors are what allow us to continue making bigger and better videos.

I have some problems with how you presented this. You choose to compare the Jewish and Muslim beliefs and current political turmoil. But you play the Christian responses off of non-believers or former Christians. This comes off as more biased and critical of Christianity than the other religions. You also ask more critical questions of the Christian as well ie the question about the Bible changing over time, but this question is not asked of the other belief systems. This not only reveals a more critical attitude of Christianity, but an ignorance of the weaknesses of the other religions. It feels like you didn't do as much research on the others, and just took the regular secular talking points that are usually directed towards Christianity but not other religions. Plus, asking the homosexuality question of the Christian but not of the others is problematic as most of the other religions also have an issue with homosexuality. To better get a grasp of what each religion truly thinks, you need to talk to experts, not just people on the street. Find big name theologians and religious leaders who know what they're talking about. Also, instead of finding random secular people on the street, why not ask more educated agnostics or skeptics?

The hindu man seemed the most wise of all the preachers, and I think it's because he was not constrained but allowed to think for himself and for a better positive humanity.

According to Hinduism : -Everyone can go to heaven regardless of their religion. -The ultimate goal is to attain '' Moksh '' (Being free from the cycle of life and death) -THERE IS NOT EVEN A WAY TO CONVERT INTO HINDUISM BECAUSE IT DOES NOT BELIEVE IN CONVERSION - If you have not prayed to god even once but you are a good human , That's it.
*Hindu Heaven is not like commonly known meaning, if u are eating icecream u r experiencing heaven, if u r in pain, u r experiencing hell. So Hindu Hell heaven is not really understood by people.
Well said brother. I haven't gone to a temple in like 10yrs now I don't believe all the scriptures we have about gods. But still I believe I'm a Hindu. Just because I believe in the goodness of humanity. And yes Hinduism is a lifestyle not a religion.
Well!! Technically they have gods that support homosexuality they believe in Adi Shakthi which is part women and men hence transgenders are seen as gods in some part of the country. But the hypocrisy is neither the wider public or the government supports homosexuality 😂😂😂
Even our Sikh brothers and sisters are sanatanis who serve humanity. We stanatanis have massive respect for Sikh gurus who taught us to be brave and save the women with chivalry.
As a hindu who studied sanskrit and hindu scriptures for 12 years of my life i'll tell you that being a gay is not a sin in hinduism but if you are forcing it on others that is when it becomes a sin other wise there are multiple types of marrige in hinduism and same sex marrige is called sumlangik vivah in sanskrit and according to hinduism we are not supposed to judge other's way of life .
Where the hell is mentioned sumlaingik vivah ? What Sanskrit scriptures you have read ? Is saimlaingik btw, and the vivahs are of 8 types and none of them are saimlaingik vivah. In Hindu scriptures marriage is for man and a woman, but there is not mention of saimlaingik relation not saying it sin nor saying it is a good thing , it's just not mentioned not discussed it's upto today's religious rishis of Hinduism to discuss it taking on account of all the modern parameters and little details from scriptures wether it would be sin or not, an most probably of it is not mentioned it would not be sin. No vivah paddhati mentions how to marry a boy with boy or girl with girl, but there is no ban to invent a vivah paddhati to marry of homesexuals too , just find out a sanskirtacharya and invent one.
@@YuvrajSingh-mg5gs Kamasutra is a book on conduct , how to love someone ,pleasure and behave whereas it has no relation with marriage. Marriages are conducted by Yajurveda , in North Shukla Yajurveda and in South Krishna Yajurveda. There are many instances of people getting married with same gender in scriptures but the catch is one of them is considered as boy or girl, and those stories are also too vague to come at a conclusion.

Hindu man was to the point and answered everything greatly . Also Buddha , never started any religion , he just gave his path to enlightenment just like Shankara and patanjali . If Buddhism was only contained in India , it would probably never get that ism , Hinduism is made of 6 diffrent philosophies , some of which deny god , some are dualistic , adualistic , pantheist . Hinduism along with other dharmic traditions form sanatan dharm , the eternal reality . We Hindus consider the gurus of Sikhs as ours ,Buddha of Buddhists as ours , mahavir and teerthankaras of Jains as ours . We also how down to Christ , for his teachings .
@@gigachadkartik yes he did, that's the point of the original comment. Buddha's ideology matches Samkhya Yoga Ideology which is one of the aspects of Hinduism. And Buddha rejected Vedas not for their teachings but due to the fact that he did not believe that anything was infallible. This was the only reason he rejected vedas, he did not question the teachings of vedas.
@@gigachadkartikThat’s what he’s saying lmfao Hinduism consists of many schools of thought, some of which reject the vedas, deities etc. Buddha simply deviated from the more popular schools of thought Maybe learn some yourself?
As a muslim living in India, I can say in hinduism sexuality has never been a sin. It's the individual karma which decide the fate of one soul in the cycle of living & dead. Karma can be good or bad depending upon one's actions or how you treat others.
no lets say if one fucks with someone or more people just for fun and enjoyment then marries someone else or does extra marital affair or cheats someone it is the biggest sin in hinduism such people will 100 percent be sent to hell
@@pikachu69-k3rthere is no eternal Heaven or hell in Hinduism. Yes if one does bad karma they can be move to bottom realms but can be rise to upper realms if they can erase such karmic action.
@@pikachu69-k3r its still not the sexuality? Sexuality has nothing to do with how many people one person fucks with also a person can have sex all they want but in that process if they hurts someone emotionally or physically that is when they will have a bad karma and hence if after marriage u cheat it is considered a sin because u r hurting the other person emotionally.
In Hinduism, heaven and hell are attained according to karma, as God has said in Bhagwat Geeta. As you sow, so shall you reap. Just like Muslims and Christians say that if you don't adopt our religion, you will burn in hell 😂 Please send the video of hell so that we can know whether Christians and Muslims went to heaven or hell.😂 Our religion has not given us the desire for heaven or hell...we will get everything as per our deeds. 😊

Actually the hare krishna , in foreign is mostly by " iskcon" which is good but in many away from truth of sanatan, They are more of abrahmic , They say Krishna is supreme Which in way he is But scriptures say that he is one form of Vishnu . So there's just one supreme conciousness, Those who see it as krishna Call it krishna ,those who call it shiv see as shiv . It's quite complicated,and that's the mystery . It is said that it is even mystery the true nature of "parbrahm" (supreme counciouness) that even they seek them and they too are different in several universes and many earths they also seek moksh (free from cycle of life of death , they live in heaven where abrahmic religions aim to be ) , We all are seeking, those saints of us who achive purity and understand soul and purpose ,become demigods . And though parbrham is one , But manifests as two "shiv" (conciousness) and "shakti" (energy) . They both are one and can't be differed but they manifest as divine masculine and divine feminine. Shakti's upasakas see her as supreme Shiv's see him Vashinavs as isckon see vishnu or Krishan as him . But they are all one, just different faces . All goddesses are forms of shakti (as energy) Like mild forms or destructive forms (chaos like ,ultimate end of everything) , and powerful who Destroys demon . Mostly she manifests as 3 as 3 different natures - "satva" as saraswati (also happens to be goddess of flowing water,intellect, conciousness, knowledge, gyan, aescticm , music ,speech ) ,rajas as in the red colour, not bad but like colour ,the essence of human life , One a married person have , As Lakshmi (depicted as goddess of wealth,money,fortune but she literally means one to help achive "lakshya" which means aim , so she is Lakshmi, Today's world see aim as reaching wealth and all so see her as goddess of fortune . And 3rd ,of "tamas" is "mahakaali" , tamas of dark anger,lust, and all . She' s not them, she frees from them, She frees from them, She's ultime destoryer, She ends all bad things, In end of every universe and time cycle she ends the very fibre of reality . But she's the kindest mother, She is slayer of demons . In rajas lakshmi as helper to reach "aim" ie. Satva or purity Thus she is a helper ,the one who helps achieves aim She is in process towards satva thus "Lakshmi" . They further have many forms, As saraswati in "Gayatri " form gave "vedas" (the supreme texts ) , Lakshmi takes many forms , Thought Lakshmi and Saraswati are providing forms of knowledge,waters, fertility,and all but also in some forms slay demons . These 3 are like divine energies, They don't have husbands and all, or respectively gods . These create everything, They are supreme and 3 forms of supreme consciousness ,three goddesses Saraswati (not MahaSaraswati) Lakshmi (not mahalakshmi as above) And parvati /shakti/sati/uma (she takes kaali form when killing demons and many other forms as mother, protector,and all) They give boons who to their devotees when they are prayed to, and take birth as daughters . In history, one rishi named "katyayan" asked supreme consciousness to take birth as his daughter in his home, Being his daughter named "katyayani" And she did, she grew and when a demon named " mahishasur" was being menace, That girl took "durga" form (Many hands, and gods gave her their weapons she used, ) And killed mahishasur The same energy took birth as himalayas' daughter ,named "Shailputri" (daughter of himalaya) ,her mother called her "uma" when she was doing very hard penance to achieve shiv as her husband again (the body was mortal,the goddess wasn't she is energy ever changing but can't be destroyed ) as Himalayas' daughter she was demi goddess's body so she did penance for several thousands years, And later shiv (not conciousness,a physical form who achived that state) woke up from meditation and they married , she wore moon on her forehead (called "chandraghanta", Next form , depicted as pregnant woman, "Kushmanda" (being cosmic womb egg of ultimate heat , "ushma " means heat and "anda" means egg) It is said to be form in which she gave birth to universe from her divine womb ,and matching somehwat big bang, A small egg of unlimited heat and it from a point blasts to all extends and cool down . In next she is depicted as mother then a protector and in last form of "9 durga" (forms of parvati,the shakti has many forms) is giver of superpowers like an adult woman of house who is provider of knowledge, These are very kind forms and motherly, u just pray to them from true heart and devotion ,u r are all good These are all kind and forgiving, There are "10 mahavidya" they are like codes ,they are not like oh mother ,they are raw energy , u gotta do all right things in tantra and process and like ,u gotta do exact right process of complex tantras,sacrifices . Their energy would consume u , They are mothers but u can't like oh mither give me power, They are codes of energies U gotta do it with siddh guru Not easy to find , Their energies can kill u, They are worshipped by ascetics and notnin homes . Ultimately it's one shakti , Who resides in everything, For her it is said "she is ever permeable, the suns move through Her, humans, gods,demons she permeates everything . Well exactly what today's energy is ! The demons who had ego that woman can't kill them were killed by woman , and thougt they are complete but when shakti inside of them came out They were ever weak, from creating havoc in universe can't even move . Shakti is never destroyed just chnages form Some so fierce, mere touch will vanish . Some very kind and mild . Overall she is one "mata AADIPARASHAKTI " U can read " devi atharvashirsh" In English translation , On Google it's magnificent and defines her so well . From Intellect to speech,to feelings, anger, lust, goodness,kindness ,gods humans nothingness she is everything . Isckon promotes Krishan with Radha (Radha is form of shakti) and (krishn of shiv) Scriptures say "vishnu and shiv are one ,those who differ them are fools" (as in they are same parbrahma,) Iskcon promotes shiv and Parvati are demigods but purans ( scriptures ) say radha herself worshipped devi "katyayani" (the one who killed mahishasur) to achive krishn as husband .
@@rf7182 yes ofc, I'm just saying that I've seen gays in other countries and religions struggling to find that sense of homeliness when they are constantly harassed, bullied, and dehumanized using the religion card, from being labeled as 'sinners' to being killed as described in 'THE BOOK', I'm just glad that I don't have to be scared of this fundamental aspect of my life; although there's a lot of homophobia in India it's rarely using religion(at least the Indian ones Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism) it's just blatant hate( or more specifically disgust) of some people towards queers
Hinduism is an eternal growing consciousness with changing thoughts but one thing which is really stressed upon is love no matter who you are,Atheist transgender, Homosexual, etc. Knowledge and Love should ve the central part of religion and religious teachings. Love you brother ❤ lead a good life.

Unfortunately that is a one in a million guy. Most others would feed some gaga stuff about Moksha, Yog and Ramayan-Mahabharat, and try to separate your hard earned money from you in the name of donations.

This is Charvaka Philosophy. 13) You want to abstain from all the enjoyment of life & find God - jai ho! Be a Sadhu, an ascetic! 14) You don't like the concept of God.

You're awesome, come on let's celebrate Hinduism! "Vasudhaiva kutumbakam" (the world is a family) 20) You don't have time to celebrate the festival. Don't worry. One more festival is coming! There are multiple festivals every single day of the year. 21) You are a working person. Don't have time for religion. Its okay. You will still be a Hindu. 22) You like to go to temples. Devotion is loved. 23) You don't like to go to temples - no problem.

Yep. The only fundamental principle is doing the Righteous things, your duty. The duty of being a good, strong, and smart human who can stand up for others.
@@LazySockcaste is nowhere mentioned in the Vedas. What's mentioned in Vedas is a 4 way division of work - a group of people who devote themselves to God, the Brahmins. Another group who protects Brahmins and Hinduism, the Kshatriyas. Another group who brings fortune and prosperity to Hinduism, the Vaishyas. And another group who takes care of the basic needs of all the 3 groups, the Shudras. Caste system was a human concept. It was a manipulation of the 4-way work division, where earlier people who could change their division, were not allowed to do so. Eventually this coagulated into the rigid caste system that we had (it was banned a long time ago) where Brahmins used to have the most powers and Dalits were treated poorly.
@@LazySockthere is no any caste system in Hinduism. From where did you learn that caste is mentioned in Vedas?? Do you have any source or proof? Nowhere mentioned about caste system. There is only varna system in Hinduism, which is purely based on division of works of society. It's not based on birth, but it is based on work only. A priest and teacher is known as brahmin. Warriors known as kshatriya. Business people or shop keepers known as Vaishya. Worker people known as Shudra. So, it's not based on birth... anyone can become brahmin, kshatriya, vaishya, shudra by their works and duties.

Growing up Hindu, my initial engagement with the faith was rooted in tradition. Over the years, however, my connection to Hinduism deepened significantly. As I delved into its teachings and practices, I found profound meaning and inner peace. Rituals, meditation, and the study of sacred texts offered clarity and purpose, enriching my life in unexpected ways. This deeper commitment stemmed from a desire for personal growth and a more purposeful existence. Embracing my faith more fully has not only strengthened my cultural ties but also brought me closer to a sense of spiritual fulfillment and understanding.
Here are some points that are often critiqued within Hinduism: Caste System: The caste system, historically linked with Hinduism, has been criticized for promoting social stratification and discrimination. The practice of untouchability and the marginalization of lower castes has led to significant social injustice and inequality. Gender Inequality: Certain interpretations of Hindu texts and traditions have been criticized for perpetuating gender inequality, particularly in the roles and rights of women within society. Superstition and Ritualism: Some critics argue that certain practices within Hinduism can encourage superstition and ritualism, which may overshadow the spiritual and philosophical aspects of the religion. Sati Practice: Although now illegal, the historical practice of Sati (widow immolation) was linked to Hindu customs and is often cited as an example of extreme patriarchy and oppression of women. Dowry System: The dowry system, which is still prevalent in some parts of India, is sometimes linked to Hindu marriage practices and has led to financial strain and violence against women. Caste-Based Violence: There have been instances of violence and discrimination against lower castes, particularly Dalits, which are often justified by rigid interpretations of caste hierarchies. Religious Intolerance: While Hinduism is often described as a tolerant and inclusive religion, there have been instances of religious intolerance, particularly against minorities within India, which some argue are fueled by certain nationalist or fundamentalist interpretations. Environmental Concerns: Certain traditional practices, such as the mass disposal of religious offerings in rivers, have been criticized for contributing to environmental pollution.

19:37 Exactly this is the truth. In India they convert the poor and suffering villagers in the name of help. This is the reasons why every 4th person in Indian villages is a Christian. I would have appreciated the missionaries if they had helped people with their own hard earned money and without the conditions of conversion. But the fact is they get foreign funding to keep their work on. This is not humanity or greatness. Anyone could help suffering people if they get foreign funding. One becomes great if he spends his own money to help poors.
There is no foreign funds to convert now a days. I think this government banned it. So, what is the drive for the pastors to convert ? They convert to get tithe. Yes, they convert gullible people and instill fear that if they don't pay 10% of earnings, they will be punished by God. It is very profitable to be pastor. It will be draining to be Christian in india.
The funny thing is that most of these villagers are poor and suffering because, of the 200 years of Christian oppression and after independent ruling gov still following those oppressive Christian rules.😇

@@rafalodeaogo3032 you just assumed that I am praising Buddhism from what I said. The core ideology taken from Vedas is that "there is a Brahman" and one must attain "liberation". You can almost say that Sanaathana Dharma is the mother and it is the greatest and relevant lifestyle forever. Siddhartha was a follower of Sanaatana Dharma which he found was complex with many rituals during his time. So he suggested an alternate lifestyle to attain liberation. It got divergent among his followers and evolved over time. Btw, I am a Sanaathana Dharmic.
Buddhism is basically the complete opposite of Hinduism which is based on Veda. Buddhism does not take Veda to be True Knowledge and denies the concept of Athma. What you can say is that Buddhism evolved in opposition to Hinduism.
You don't have to do anything with Vedas or other scriptures to be a Hindu. It goes beyond scriptures. If you follow native Indian culture, which has innumerable traditions and schools, you're Hindu. So Buddhism Sikhism etc are all hindu too as they originated in India.

Buddhism and Jainism grew, thrived and spread to other countries peacefully only because it was in a Hindu (santana) community. Buddha or Mahavir were not tortured or harassed, instead they found many disciples who formed a fully established sub-religion within one lifetime.
Bhrahmans tried their best to supress buddhism . How else do you think that india reconverted back to hinduism from budhhism? Buddha single handedly riled up bahmans and purohits since his teachings discredited the vedic voo-voo that these priests (bahmans and purohits) indulged in and thereby snatching money out of gullibles

As a hindu I tell you my little philosophy about god . (Case 1--) -- God does not exist --- if god does not exist I dont have to worry about hell or heaven ,i will do want i want and die peacefully. (Case 2)-- God exist .--- If god exists then i have full trust in him that if he decide to send me to hell or heaven it will be based on my character,my karma ,,am i good or bad , not on the basis that which religion i follow or how much time i worship him ..
It also tells doubt and figure things out on your own not to follow mindless. But all religions have a lot of manmade stuff in them that are forced on others sadly. I do believe in a placebo effect as proven in science and followed in most medical researchers. It is simply the power of the mind and therefore I do believe what our mind can do. Just like how u start seeing ghosts if u believe it strong enough.
case 1 : you cannot die peacefully if you end up doing anything you want! everyones a villain, most control , some don't, thats why they end up in prison. and thats why we all have intrusive thoughts too! we are all villains...... case 2 : agreed.!
@@emergencyambulance2017 what are u saying dude, ur conclusion is only a result of not understanding people. Everyone has good and bad in them. Most people are victims of their own circumstances, no one is Inherently evil. I know you will not take this advice but a lot of what you said can be better understood by going into human psychology. Having intrusive thoughts and acting upon it are miles apart from each other. And if thoughts had the same consequences of acting upon on it then we wouldn't do that often either. What religion is, it is a supporting stick when things fall apart and things don't make sense. Knowing someone is watching over you and things happen for a reason alone can mentally make you stronger. Religion exists because it has benefits and I am grateful that people who are victim to their circumstances and lives in this unfair world were given a reason to live another day because of the support, hope, belief, purpose it gave them when they were about to end it all. This does not make them weak for using religion as support because the alternative route is way harder. As we all don't start at the same starting line.
As hindu I know what you mean dualism advait by madhva said same thing. One thing about that there is two types of hindu one who are worshiper (believer of god) and non worshiper(hindu atheist).hindu atheist do not cross the philosophy of hindu because it depend on Individual thing. Every seek their own way of hindu way of life. And we do not contradicts each other
I'm neither a Buddhist nor a citizen of Myanmar. But I'd like to tell that the incident that happened in Myanmar with Rohingyas that things has been going on from decades and most of the time it was the Rohingyas who attacked Buddhist and Hindu villages but once the Buddhists retaliated the world started crying about Rohingya crises, people should look back in history as to know why it happened.
No idea of the details of this event. But i have noticed a trend to use events like this to attack religion unfairly. So I would encourage everyone to look beyond how the religious follows behave to what the religion actually teaches and judge it on that.
In Hinduism , LGBTQ is not sin . Even god shiva and Parvati joined together and form a version that is called Ardhanareeshyara . God Vishnu take Mohini avatar . The mohini avatar of lord Vishnu and Shiva had a child who is the famous god called ayyappan
@@_butter.cup_ From what I know, Karma is actually just the simple definition that every action has a reaction. If you do a good thing, one wouldn't necessarily get 'good' karma, and vice versa. The target is to reduce the amount of karma in debt you have, and that is where the concept of morals and religion ties in.
Hinduism is like Open Source technologies of religious world. You are welcome to come in and leave, you can create one school of thought of yourself and you can contribute to existing one. It's all about seeking oneness with god and that journey is personal.
Shouldn't God be the one to decide what the journey to "oneness" looks like? Does Hunduism give guidance to what God's will is for that Journey? If it doesn't, I would say that is just pretending to be God with a "make your own religion". If it does, great, it should. And I think that should be the focus on evaluating it. Your comment is sort of an empty platitude when I want to know what the actual believes are.
@@viperstriker4728 in Hinduism, there are multiple journies leading to same destination, believe me Hinduism is more complex than you think, so think before commenting something on it
In Hinduism, heaven and hell are attained according to karma, as God has said in Bhagwat Geeta. As you sow, so shall you reap. Just like Muslims and Christians say that if you don't adopt our religion, you will burn in hell 😂 Please send the video of hell so that we can know whether Christians and Muslims went to heaven or hell.😂 Our religion has not given us the desire for heaven or hell...we will get everything as per our deeds. 😊
@@keshavmishra07Haha, watch a video of a train-ride in India to see hell. Heaven is maybe a US citizen-ship. In other words everybody can be living in their own hell or heaven depending on their consciousness. The video sits in your mind, not in the after-life...religion is no guarantee.
When the Hindu guy said, i saw 13 girls is a whole different context in terms of indian. We see 13 or less or more at their home with both the families and hardly be a small conversation and nothing more. The smile from the interviewer was perceiving it in more western approach
Also, the girl also has the freedom to see as many boys till she and her parents likes the boy and take the proposal forward...... its a thing where full family is involved and yea no intimacy between the girl and the boy before the proposal is confirmed.
That's an oversimplification of both Khmer & Buddhist history. There were many religious, war faring neighbouring regions of that time. King Jayavarman VII, whose was a pious Buddhist, was indeed a pacifist for a long time and actually left the capital cause he didn't care to rule, that is until he felt he had to after Cham invasion of the capital (and the killing of his brother/cousin). So in essence it was self defense/duty, not necessarily in the name of Buddhism. After leading the rebellion and taking back Angkhor, he lead the empire into its golden era and majority of the population then converted to Buddhism. In Buddhist texts, we are taught that we are not to kill and choose peace. However, we also acknowledge in this world there is duality & fear affects all.
You mean Buddhism- yes it’s Sanatan Dhamma. Whereas Hindu vedas came from a Brahma who lied and produced a false witness to claim supremacy. Hindus continue this tradition.
As a hindu, we even have had special temples dedicated to trans community . We consider them blessed (by lord ram) as every or most things they bless comes true, our religion considers every person or identity as a part of it. ❤
@@kuurakuutamoThere's a huge congregation of hindus that happens every 12 years where many himalayan yogis, saints, priests and common people gather. It's considered the world's largest religious gathering. It's called Maha kumbh. It's going to happen in 2025. There are hundreds of festivals, rituals and customs that happen there. There are many Akhadas. One of them is called Kinnar Akhada where the intersex/trans people dance, celebrate and worship the gods.
He also failed to mention the Genocide committed by Buddhist of Sri Lanka and of Bhutan in the name of Buddha to the Hindu Minority, In fact Bhutan cleansed it's 20% of the Hindu population in the name of One religion, one dress, and one people during 1980-90s and in Sri Lanka very recently.
@@apostatethegreat.9398 The Hindus in Bhutan that were persecuted were ethnically Nepalese called lothsampa. I am from Nepal we had upwards of 100k people flee to Nepal. I also grew up Hindu but later took the teachings of Buddha and became a lay Buddhist myself. IMO anyone who harms others and calls themselves a Buddhist is a hypocrite because it goes against the core teachings of Buddhism. Growing up a Hindu I also know the general consensus of Hindus view on Buddhist, some see it as a sister religion, some claim Buddhism is basically Hinduism (but never practice anything remotely Buddhist), and some outright despise Buddhism. I am guessing you fall on the latter category, perhaps you see it as a threat to your own religion like how your ancestors did and persecuted Buddhists (Muslims did more) out of India. Idk what your quarrel is with Buddhism 🤷🏽♂️ Lastly I think there is a specific reason you left out Rohingya of Myanmar which were also prosecuted by “Buddhists” and that’s because theres a massive rise of anti Islam sentiment in India specially with the far right Hindu groups on the rise and I am guessing your part of that? Also your Chanel pretty much gives it away ig, anyway my point is I don’t have any quarrel with hindus or any religions in fact I just want you to understand that there are religious extremists in every corner of the world and we shouldn’t judge people or religions by the actions of one group or person, instead judge them based on their teachings and compare them to your own moral understanding of what is right or wrong.
as a hindu ......i can tell you .........that being gay or trans is very accepted in hinduism .........and there's no any veda's ......upnishad's or even bhagwat gita ........says it's a sin .........even kamasutra which is a hindu text written back in ancient times .....wich explains typs of sexual pleasure and how to do it ........even that includes homosex things ......coz hinduism is not a religion .......IT'S just how people lived their live....and they did know that being homo is a possibility also .......religion bounds you to believe what it say's and if you will not pray to that one god you will rot in hell............but as a hindu am not bounded by anyone i can pray to jesus ....no any hindu god has forbidden this thing or say believe in me only ........in short ......the sanskrit word KARMA .......is the only thing .......if you are a hindu........REMEMBER KARMA
Gay and Trans is accepted in Hinduism?? No Why are promoting woke mind set here od western culture Are you also from LGBTQ community Please Stop here Hinduism is not that
Even lying and bearing false witness is not a sin in hinduism since that is the source: Hindu vedas came from a Brahma who lied and produced a false witness to claim supremacy. Hindus continue this tradition.

Bro asked about caste system to that Hindu guy. What he said was totally wrong. There are numerous literature and accounts from the past where the so called upper caste people oppress and humiliate so called lower caste people. Bro first learn to accept the mistake that exists inherently in the society. After 75 years of independence, Dalits are still experiencing unspeakable atrocities and violence by other upper casts.
@@davidmanova4547hinduism isnt made up in the last 2000 years! What you say is the response of opression from colonialistaion by islamists and christians. There is only varna system but people grew their desires and thirst for power started to change varna to caste. Seems like you cant accept that sanatana dharma is good and keep throwing caste stuff. What u said is true caste was a problem but it is not advocated by our philosophy. Your father might be a teacher aka bramhin but you can be an administrator aka kshatriya. Thats varna. But administators wanted power so they implemented law that doesnot allow change in work causing manual labour workers children be manual labours. And boom there comes pride and everything else. I hope you understand that this catse has been slowly and steadily inject into this philosophical religion and it will change slowly back to varna ❤
@@ArjunVB666 Even though i disagree with your view, I was more opposing to that Priest's view that Caste system and oppression was cut loose by British. He neglected the fact that it's the fellow Indians who should take the responsibility for those attrocities. It's not important if the philosophy is inherent or not. What's important is the suffering the people facing in the name of caste. For that to go away first fellow indians should recognize it's their fault and not British (their imaginations)
The best way to understand Hinduism is by the Bhagavad Gita. In Hinduism, it is not about heaven or hell. It is about breaking your life cycle and attain Moksha - Uniting of Atma(Individual Soul) with Paramatma(The Supreme Soul). How do you do it? Many paths are prescribed such as : 1.Bhakti Yog : Devoting yourself to the Paramatma(you may call it God), either in a formless way or even through an 'Ishta Devata' (A form of your choice). You can think of your 'Ishta Devata' as your son, your lover, your father, your mother or just as God. There are examples of great and revered people who have done this. Important thing is Bhakti. And what is Bhakti? Bhakti is the supreme stage of Love where you don't expect anything in return for the love you give. 2. Karma Yog : Karma Yog means doing 'Nishkam Karma'. What is Nishkam Karma? The Principle of doing your duty, how pleasant or unpleasant it may be, and at the same time not caring about the result. That is your doing your duty for the sake of doing it and not because you want to attain its result or outcome. When you expect the result, you'll fall into the cycle of Karma. But when you do Nishkam Karma, you'll not do so. Like this when you break the cycle of Karma, you'll get Moksha(Salvation). 3. Gyan Yog : The pursuit of Knowledge. You dedicate your whole life in the pursuit of knowledge. And at one point of time, all your knowledge will lead you to Enlightenment and you reach a state of divinity. And you will lead a perfect life and when you end it, you'll get Moksha. The most difficult part and important thing to be understood is that you should not get proud of your knowledge. You should be always ready to learn from anywhere and anyone, even from a person who is generally considered wortless,idiot, crazy or an outcast. These are just 3 ways. There are lot more.
The second point can be challenged by someone who is not Hindu: What about a bad person doing bad things (like a terrorist) or a sociopath? That's why one important aspect of karma yoga is 'contributing to the well-being of others,' thus striving to create a harmonious and compassionate society.
Islam is primarily growing due to two reasons IMO: higher birth rates in Muslim communities/countries, and inability to leave the religion in Muslim countries (ie no apostasy).
Hinduism , Sikhism, Jains, Buddhism, Indian Paganism, Indian Atheism are one family of religions called as Sanatan Dharma. This is why they cannot be compared to Abrahamic Religions because in Sanatan Dharma, these is no concept of religion or following a single book, but seeking ones path in life though devotion, meditation, study of books, chanting, charity etc. Its more way of life rather than set of beliefs.
@@samamethyst997 No abrahamic religions does not have a way of life as its a codified set of rules dictated by the books from god/creator. This means life needs to be modified as per those set of rules that than following its own way. If you think its a better more virtuous then i am happy for you. Keep following what you believe is right and betterment of this planet.
@AA12434 do you even understand the definition of "way"? Dharmic religions don't care about anything in simple terms no heaven no hell no rules do whatever you want, it's not a way to the truth and the good it basically states you can murder someone and it's alright, whereas abrahamic religions follow rules to not kill, be kind to everyone, pray remember god atleast a few times a day, give charity for good deeds whereas dharmic ppl are like "oh I will not give money because it's my money" and you people won't even regret because of your "way of life". homie these are the reasons why dharmic religions are basically atheism and abrahamic religions are the true ones
@AA12434 dawg do you even understand the meaning of "way"? It's a path of good and virtuous which people follow to be a better person, it's like a goal, even if you are capable without a goal you aren't achieving shit Santa dharma or whatever it is, is just foolish pagans who just do whatever they want because "thEIr wAY Of LIfE"
@@AA12434 the rules were made for us to follow like to not kill, love, respect others, serve people, donate to the poor whereas you guys have your "WAy oF LIfE" which is just a "mY LiFE mY rULeS" type of garbage
There is a word called 'Blasphemy' as a Hindu i never knew about it up until recently because as a hindu we are taught to question everything even God but sadly with the other religions you don't get that freedom...if you question the God then you are as good as dead 😅
There are 6 schools of thoughts in Hinduism and you can question everything even God and then there are different explanations as per different school of thoughts and as per your logic you can choose what you want pretty cool right 😊
Doubting Thomas is about a guy questioning God. Clearly Jesus was disappointed, but yet he gave him the exact proof he was looking for. If your question is genuine, God will answer. You may not like the answer, we humans don't like the idea of someone with the moral authority to tell us we are wrong.
@@Hey.SumitDas The schools of thought sound similar to Christian denominations. But for Christians they do believe there is one that is correct and all the others are slightly wrong. Objective truth exists. When you say you can choose which school of thought you want. Are you implying truth is relative and all are equally valid?
@@ReinhardtX57 actually it's not just cows, we respect all animals and take care of them and love them because we believe god is in each and every particle, that's why we respect everything and everyone even if the things are non living, for example, we respect books because they give us knowledge and we believe there's God inside it. I hope that answers your question.
Progressive liberalism crept into Hinduism in the 19th century. I accept authentic pure Sanatana Dharma and not progressive liberalism. Radical liberalism made Hindus weak
The main difference between Abrahamic religions and Dharmic religions which include Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism and Buddhism is how they operate. Dharmic religions never say your god is false our’s is the true god and you must convert or god has sent us to show non believers even those who are from different religion to pray to the the real god which is their religion.
Abrahamic religions are monotheistic. It stands to reason that if that claim is correct then God wouldn't be very happy about you rejecting His way of doing things for one that humans made up. Honestly, these Dharmic religions as they are presented here make no sense to me. It's probably because we didn't get to hear much of the actually doctrines but the surface level presents a "anything goes so long as it feels good" message. Both the Christian and Muslim could give a clear answer on homosexuality. Maybe I missed it, but I didn't hear the others give any answer at all. Certainly with how important sex is in religion they must have some belief on how this issue with effect your relation with God?
@@viperstriker4728as a jewish person being gay is also forbidden in judaism. but it depends in what community you live in if you will be shunned or not, i belive any stream thats not hasidic, ultra/very orthodox will probably be acssepted.
@@viperstriker4728 Dharmik faiths believe God is inconceivable, but whatever humans think is conceivable so God is beyond human comprehension. If you think any religion is true then why they are coded in a language most the the humans cannot understand, why animals don't have to follow a religion, aren't they part of God's creation, doesn't a rat not giving a shit about his creator offend the creator, and what is offense if not a emotion controlled by our own body, so a God with no body have animalistic emotions? What about the people who came before the religion? God has other ways to deal with them? Those who are born with abnormalities? Why made them suffer? Those who's brain do not develop enough to understand anything? But somehow speaking gibberish in a particular language makes God happy and gets you heaven, with Virgin even and whatever you desires? Sounds like ultimate human male's desire? What about the kids who are too young to have sex will they also get virgins with elastic hymen? If you start questioning Abrahamic faiths turns out it's nothing but bunch of bs created by war lords to control human minds. I guess isolated tribes will all go to hell? But for what not making efforts to contact and lear God's favourite people? Poor souls.
@@viperstriker4728 Dharmic faiths atleast wrt Hinduism is centered around individual and not at community level with goal attaining eternal salvation on the pholosohpy of karma, so the tenats of it doesn't forbid something just because the community did not like it, this is the reason why there is variation in the way Hinduism is practised as culture of the community of a locale influences the practises even when the faith doesn't forbid something and casteism is just one example of the culture inspite of the faith not endorsing it. Same is the reason why caste hiearchy is seen in christians and muslims of south asia inspite of those faiths not having that concept. Finally the tenats of Christianity and Islam represents the cultural norms of the community of the time period when these faiths are formed and so is their vehement opposition to anything that doesn't conform to this rules while the dharmic faiths recognize the fluidity of the community norms doesn't forbade something just because majority think so. While so called advanced societies like USA are still debating whether a woman can lead a nation or abortion should be legal or not, these are never a center of discussion in the dharmic regions as it is left to individual choice.
@@chandu25abc20 I am not sure how you can claim Christianity conforms to the culture of the time when Christian history is a repeating story of Christians being killed for not going along with the culture of the time. Allow me to give some examples. The sabbath was basically tossed out. Paul addresses women when giving his version of the household code, you won't see that from the Romans or Greeks. They addressed the men and told them how their women were suppose to behave. I am sure you can see why that difference would have upset the culture of the time. You have a few other misconceptions. The US is actually run by feminism right now, so there is no debate. We have had several people running for president with being a women being one of the main arguments for why she should be a elected. Basically every show depicts the majority of leadership as female now. So.... your wrong. And how is a women in leadership an individual choice? I as an individual decide I should rule over you.... yeah, clearly this is a societal choice. Abortion is the same way. If I as an individual decide a racial minority is "just a clump of cells" does that mean it isn't murder to kill them? That's not a joke, some people during racial segregation didn't think black people were human. If you deny babies the rights of a human, then your just as bad.
Muslims are portrayed so poorly in the media, your the first one who actually talked to a Muslim, and the Muslim guy seems like such a nice gentle sensible guy.
I mean not surprised since the pain and suffering these guys cause other religion with their beliefs and spread it causing islamophobia and hatred towards them
Listen if your religion constantly poisons people into committing hate crimes, throwing dirt on other religions and overall imposing blasphemy laws which most people don't agree with, You're Guaranteed to get a lot of hate.
@@manavjain3643Islam caused none of that, islam is like a fact or idea, not a flag, sometimes there are people who try to use islam as an excuse, even though islam does not support them, they still try to bend it in a way to achieve their goal, If a Muslim does something bad, Islam should never be held accountable, because in Islam doing something bad is not supported, If you do not believe me look to the Quran and some trusted Hadith and see if the things those supposed Muslims that caused "pain and suffering" to the other religions is supported
In Hinduism if you dont believe in god also you are hindu no need to worship god in hindu if you do good to other human no hate to other religion and no need to convert other people accept the diversity live peacefully in Hinduism we have like 10 books or more than that so if you want truly to understand Sanatan Dharma then read and learn Diversity is the Beauty of Hinduism even we believe every living being is God

Excellent video Gen! during my 6 years living in Japan I started doing a deep dive into Buddhism, visited all of the major Benzaiten temples across Japan, and it lead me to learn more about Hindu dharma as well. There seems to be some trend about post-pandemic there's been an upsurge in spiritual quests. What a great deep dive you did, and for your openness throughout.
With due respect, I would say or inform you that Buddhism is just an extended branch/part of Hinduism as Gautam buddha himself was Hindu. Sidharth got born in Hindu/Vedic family in Nepal. He took his primary knowledge from his hindu parents and teachers. Then in his early age, he left his home and came to Bharat/India and started taking knowledge from gurus of Vedic/Sanatan dharma. He became Buddha only after he got enlightened in Bharat. He got born as hindu, lived his life as Hindu, and died as Hindu. And most importantly, he never said that he has started new religion other than Hinduism/Sanatan Dharma. Hinduism allows you to find your own ways to moksha... that's how buddhism and sikhism got born from Hinduism. So, Hinduism is kind of parental religion for buddhism and sikhism.
@@vishalrao4073 I appreciate all the details. My comment was mean to compliment Gen on his open minded dive, and to give a little personal note about how in my own spiritual experience Japanese Buddhism lead me to do research, discover, and become fascinated with Hindu dharma. I don’t aim to make claims about any religion or spirituality, just wanted to share a little personal note about how I discovered the wonderful spirituality. Worthwhile info all the same though, thank you.
@@JakeLavoieMusicI think you misunderstood my intention. I didn't deny or object your perspective or your views but I appreciate you. I just wanted to give you more details because you live in other country, so you won't get those details easily in other country. But as indian, we can give you much detail because Hinduism, buddhism, Sikhism, Jainism all four are Indian religions. And Hinduism is oldest religion from which buddhism and sikhism got born. And Jainism is also most closely related with Hinduism and many jains people consider themselves both jains and Hindus simultaneously. You can ask anything if you want to ask about hinduism. Btw, Hinduism is only major religion in world which worships goddesses as well. Other religions only says that their god is male and they always denotes their god as he/him/his. Whereas Hindus worships female goddesses as well. And even one sect of Hinduism consider Maa shakti as supreme creator of this universe.
Few things of HINDUISM I want to share with you: 1) Hinduism Dharma is only biggest religion in world who worships female Goddesses equally as well. Other religions only says that their God is male, not female....but only Hinduism believes in this that universe is made up from both masculine energy as well as feminine energy, so we worships Goddesses equally. 2) Hinduism is only religion who gives rights to transgenders as well. Hinduism embraces transgenders similarly as any male or female. Transgender specially worships Lord Shiva as their isht-dev. 3) Hinduism allows atheism as well. Hinduism holy books gives full rights to atheism as to find own ways for their moksha/purpose of life. 4) Hinduism says or teaches about "Vasudhaiv Kutumbakam" which means "whole world is one family" so treat everyone of world as a family members. 5) In Bhagwat Gita, KRISHNA says "Karm kiye ja, fal ki chinta na kar" which means "do your duty/karma without worrying about the fruit of your duty/karma". It's one of the very powerful message to humanity. 5) KRISHNA says "wherever there is no respect of women, that home/region/kingdom/civilisation gonna be destroyed by Karma through the will of KRISHNA" 7) Hinduism never says that if you won't worship me or believe me, then you will be burn in hell or any kind of threats. But Hinduism always says to surrender your sorrows, pain and joy in feet of KRISHNA or SHIVA (or if you worship goddess Maa Parvati or Maa Kali). KRISHNA will take care of believers as well as non-believers equally because he is omnipresent and he don't do partiality for believers and non-believers because it doesn't matter for supreme Lord of this universe. Jai Shri Krishna 🙏🚩 Radhe-Radhe 🙏🚩
Well what can I say except consept of karma is pretty prominent in both of us indian goverment classified Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism and Buddhism as sanartan dharma so yep pretty much even jain can answer most of Buddhism related question
Both are Indian religion so of course both going to have many similarities in concepts and philosophy. There used to be many schools of thought in ancient India. Some of them died, and some of them survived. Buddhism is among them which survived and became more prominent.
Ig his behaviour kinda interfered with the monk eventually making him not intrested in the interview. Like for example shaking hands and tapping his back. That's kinda unacceptable in my opinion as someone who worships monks before I say a word to them
As a Christian, it is great to look at both sides even if you don't believe them. Asking questions and telling people what you think. You're doing a great thing learning both sides without striking arguments. The problem with today is we get into arguments easily just by expressing our own opinions. I want to make this clear. I'm a Jesus Followers, I believe homosexuality is a sin, I believe that you can't get to heaven by deeds but only by faith and salvation in Jesus Christ. Am I going to argue. No. I want to respectfully listen to both sides. And I like how you're doing that. God bless you.
Iam a hindu and in my own family we all follow different philosophy like my grandmother she's following bhakti yog which means like praying same with my mother but my sister she's following param yog means meditation+ divine yoga with satvik yoga and my father and me is proudly can say we are seeker which means we go through sastra veda and purana (religious book or we can say that scientifically proven book) as well as i also follow yoga and karmyog simply can say karma and my little brother he follows a philosophy called as charkavya + nayaya which are big philosophy We're not confused at the end of these all philosophy sanatan (hindu) religion is about giving peace to yourself to your own mind that's it and again it's a big phrase here for hindus be a seeker not a follower divine within you will see the good! That's it. Namaskarm
Charvak is nothing big philosophy it's trash philosophy, there is nothing called philosophy in hindus , philosophy is a western term . Philosophy is not certain it's basically a well rational thought of , creative stuff which is not absolute truth , whereas our scriptures talk about darshanam , darshanam doesn't means philosophy it's western mistranslation ,, darshanam are not some randomly thought of stuff , darshanam comes from vedas and vedas are revealed by the Brahmn the ultimate consciousness, the modern and western approach of understanding those darshanam has made people fool to think of them as 5 separate philosophies whereas in reality all those 5 darshanam are not contradicting each other but are true different ways to reach or attain same reality , charvak like shit is some 2000 year old stuff , it's not from vedas , any random person can write philosophies but that will not be truth , everything has to follow vedas , if it doesn't follow vedas then it's trash , after Mahabharata which happened around 5000 bc the knowledge of Sanatan started declining, people started loosing culture and scriptural knowledge this and around 1000 bc the knowledge of Hinduism started getting distorted leading to various misconceptions, division, separation which led to clash and question on scriptures leading to emergency of half baked shitty so called philosophies like charvak and , any scriptures which doesn't follow vedas or written around 3000 years is fake and stuff of his own mind .

Islam is not the fastest growing but fastest breeding religion as per pew research the number of people embracing Islam is less than the number of people leaving Islam and becoming ex-Muslim or going for other faith.
@@sarahbeingsarah6 Read the Pew research it clearly says 0.3% of Islam's growth is because of conversions and 99.7% is because of birth rate. and if we count ex-muslims them people leaving Islam is a lot more then people opting Islam.

Don't "trust me bro" just start reading and educating yourself.
The reason I watch Gen is very simple: he listens more than others do and tries to give insight of everyones perspective. Its really helpful to hear everyones voice unless its too extreme and hateful.

You're a good RUclipsr Gen. I really hope you find your own personal path that makes you happy and makes you find true peace in whatever you pursue 🌸 Just do your best in anything you do. You're already doing so well. Honestly you did ask really good questions 🌸
Im a hindu and i was always taught to just follow my own path to finding who i am to find my own dharma and follow it and if i do that im a gud human not just a gud hindu but a human and i think thts more important than having to follow customs be urself but at the end of it be a gud human
Would hinduism then allow you to find other religions, if that were to mean “finding your own dharma?” Feels like it’s almost more philosophical way of living then
@@VuNguyen-fv5jl Yes it technically would allow that. Hinduism customs are only as strict or restricting as you allow them to be or impose on yourself. Yes, it is a set of guidelines to help you live life in an optimal way to the best of its capabilities (small but obvious things like respect your elders, care for your family etc). But the degree of flexibility is also an inherent part of it. Within Hinduism, it allows individuals to follow their own set of spiritual/religious practices. No two sets of people's prayers are required to be the same. People can pray to the deity they believe the most in. It's their prerogative. Whatever brings stability and peace to their life and helps take a load off their chest. India is a big place, with many gods/deities, 'spirits' etc. that the people pray to. It's not a foreign concept. Christianity and Islam are just monotheistic beliefs that originated outside of India. That's all. Had they originated in India, then they would likely just be a part of the "Hindu way". Unlike many other religions, like in Islam and Christianity, Hinduism doesn't condemn anyone else's religion or beliefs and say things like people following other religions cannot go to heaven or find salvation or stuff like that.
No one is a good human I used to follow my own path and thought if I set these subjective standards to myself and follow them then I would be worthy I couldn’t even take my own advice to be a good person. We are all selfish and self centered by nature.
@@sofiabravo1994 the world isnt ideal but we can only strive to be one yes we might be self centered at times but to help another when they might need it the most than u can be a gud human we r not gud humans at all times but to be gud even for an instance is worth all of it
@@VuNguyen-fv5jl hinduism is a guidance of how to live life according to my interpretation it doesnt tell me follow this certain path and all will be well it just guides me to follow my dharma and dharma isnt religion but it means what ur intended purpose in life is for a teacher his dharma is to be teach kids and guide them to be gud adults a doctor's dharma is to treat patients and a soldiers dharma is to protect ppl so everyone's dharma is different but if u r able to follow it u can lead a gud life

@@FTerrasson no he didn't british did first caste census in india in 1875 and they took some bizzare measure to classify whose high caste and whose low caste. they measured people's nose . the people with similar nose structure with british were termed high caste and those not were placed in low caste. before this census there were 3000 caste in indian subcontinent and british doubled tthem. he didn't said caste was created by british but he did say the modern caste system as we see noe is creation of british, it's true, does it mean there were no atrocities in past because of caste system. NO there was but hindus time to time had there little update in religion which is called ' the bhakti movement' which used to address the wrongs in indian religion and solve it. the caste isn't even indian word the original version is 'the varna system' which was basically a social hierarchy system based on your profession there were four levels - the brahmins[ those who do teaching, research, astrologer, doctor, all the high mental level stuff were brahmins], kshatriya[ the one who protects the land, basically military, police etc.], vaishyas[ business class, traders etc], shudra [ manual labour] the profession was passed in families for generation, the system was fluid anyone can level up or level down based on his abilities, as time passed the system became rigid so, many caste or jatis proliferated out of four varnas, now many 1000 year later among shudras the jatis who used to do stuff like leather tanning, toilet cleaner, sewage cleaner etc. became disliked profession and somewhat unclean and that was attached to people who belonged to that caste. that's how segregation started that people now started considering whole caste as unclean and impure, they were not allowed to enter temples and stuff this was all happening in same era as british arrived in india so they found a tool to exploit, they were no saviour as they potray in their books, first 100 years the company came in they didn't really do care about other stuff but to take control of many kingdoms of indian subcontinent, after first revolt of 1857 the british crown took over and come christian missionaries with them, they see a large population to be Evangelized, they recorded the so called atrocity literature with a large extent of exaggeration of what they call as brahminical religion. it also worked as great tool to keep indian population divided which was already divided. this is just a short summary i'm providing, it's way complicated than that. i'm not blaming the british too, it's a fact that they did major translation of many ancient manuscripts and even destroyed them and there were keen to convert indians too. you want me to trust every damn thing my colonizer wrote about me in the branch of indology in the same universities which was created with the money earned by slave trade of indians into african lands. A BIG NO.

So it's basically a religion with no firm beliefs. Doesn't take stand for itself And I doubt if it can make clear distinction about right or wrong People can make things up for themselves Very compromising, submissive and easy to manipulate kind a religion which encourages whims and desires of common people. No discipline
@thegoat5668 For Abrahamic religions, everything else is paganism. There is no You vs Us. We all share the earth and there is no need to impose your values on another. Just listen to your conscience to be a good person. Be a better human today compared to yesterday. That's all that matters. No fair God will punish you just because you don't follow a specific prophet or book. A fair God rewards goodness and nothing else. So it doesn't matter who that God is, as long as you are a good human. Why is that a difficult concept?

This is by far the best content on RUclips. As a person who follows the Hindu way of life, this video made me a lot more aware of the diversity in people's faiths and I think that is what the divine intended for us. We need to understand and recognize each other's beliefs without comparing and criticizing those beliefs from our individual perspectives. All power to you @GEN!
I'm a practicing Catholic, and if I had to hazard a guess, I think the reason you couldn't get any of your local parishes to participate in the interview is likely because the bishop of the diocese didn't want to risk potentially adding fuel to the already-raging flames of discourse. Catholic social teaching is WAY more complex than most people give it credit for, and though the Catechism lays out a pretty comprehensive breakdown of all of the Church's teachings, it's a massive book that even most Catholics haven't read all the way through. The Church has struggled for decades to accurately communicate the ins and outs of our beliefs to both members and outsiders alike, which is made all the more difficult by how often your average Catholic completely fails to practice what they preach (that's like, the entire reason we need Jesus so much--even when we're actively trying to do the right thing, we often still screw up). So yeah, if I was a bishop, and some of my priests came to me and said "Hey, so we got this invitation to talk in a RUclips video about controversial opinions across different religions, what would you like us to do?" my first instinct would probably be "that sounds like it could go all kinds of wrong and result in all kinds of conflict even just among our own parishioners. Maybe let's NOT rock the boat here." Even so, I am disappointed they turned down the invitation, it would have been a great opportunity to help close the gaps between these different worldviews and beliefs. Too bad you couldn't get Bishop Robert Baron, he would've JUMPED on a chance like this in a heartbeat, and he would've been great at explaining everything too. Anyways, absolutely amazing video as always!!! These are always so helpful in keeping my mind open and ready to hear people out, no matter how much I may disagree with them. (edit, just because I know how people on the internet love to interpret things): No I don't actually know for sure that this was the bishop's reasoning, or even if the bishop was consulted or the pastors all decided individually to decline the invitation--this is 100% just my guess. The Church is not a monolith, sometimes different diocese do things that are radically different than others--we Catholics are just as obnoxiously complicated and messy as everyone else in the world lol.
I wholeheartedly agree with this, as a Catholic myself this is exactly what I thought! Hope Gen will make another video going deeper into Christianity and having Bishop Baron would be awesome
i feel like some of these religious leaders are very liberal (as in modern not political) it would have been nice to get a conservative/orthodox leader to see their perspective as well
That would be interesting to hear ngl, but just a question, can you elaborate on what you mean by liberal in a modern way that isn't political? I'm just curious.
@@blackwidowpowersports6037 so the jewish rabbi said he works with a woman rabbi which is a very modern concept. Also the christian pastor said he was non-denominational so they dont adhere strictly to any one practice. In comparison to perhaps an orthodox jew or even a TLM catholic where women are not religious leaders and are more strict on their texts commandments versus liberal. Liberal in the very definition of the word: willing to respect or accept behavior or opinions different from one's own; open to new ideas
I've watched the whole video now, the Imam said nothing that indicated any liberal view. He is like most Imams I've met they all are very in line with the core teachings of the religion as it has been taught since the beginning.
In Sanskrit it is pronounced as YOGA but in Hindi it is pronounced as YOG. So calling it YOGA is right. योग is pronounced YOGA in Sanskrit but in Hindi योग is pronounced as YOG because Hindi language cuts syllables in the end.

Refer to this video "Watch This Before You Start Learning Sanskrit!" where he doesn't cut syllables in the end.
योग: this is a Sanskrit word which is pronounced as yoga'h Where as योग is a hindi word which is pronounced as yog So you can pronounce it in either way
योग: is pronounced as yogah a is silent so the priest is ryt and you are wrong i studied Sanskrit for 5 years and doing yog from childhood so stop this your half knowledge is dangerous

Hinduism actually one of the most underrated religion at least on internet, it is misrepresented, hated idk why politics due to lack of well marketing like other religions. Also hindu people respect Buddhist very much as they consider them to be like more pure version. To be put simply, a Buddhist do meditation, don't fight for whose god is real, aim for peace, generally don't kill or harm animals for taste like they are very peaceful those qualities are also supposed to be in a hindu but majority of them failed to become like that😅.( I may be wrong)
so you are saying that buddists are hardcore hindus haha no i am not hating anyone but it is true, hindus, like lord ram are all for humility and kindness, but yeah somewhere along the line we got so confused and the media started playing with us a lot haha
Hinduism -(minus) the concept of soul and God = Buddhism. Hinduism doesn't have strict restrictions so most people follow how much extent they want to, like some r pure vegans, vegetarians and some eat meat. It is up to the person to find his path. ❤
"Debating over which God is superior, where they come from, and judging each other-this is where humanity falters. True faith lies not in competing over beliefs but in living them. Preach what you believe, but never judge another’s belief. Unity in diversity is the strength of humanity.
Sikhism's Founder Guru Nanak Sahib, 500 years ago challenged the convention of times and said that women are no less than men in any way. Males and Females both are equal for the God and none is superior to other. No position in Sikhism is reserved just for men. Women can do prayers, can serve as Granthis (similar to pastor in Christianity), can take part in war and can occupy political positions.
Guru Nanak Sahib Ji was a great Guru (an extraordinary spiritual leader) who was truly ahead of his time. He was one of the most enlightened beings on earth, blessed by God for the benefit of humanity. As Hindus, we deeply respect Guru Nanak Sahib Ji and hold him in high regard. His profound wisdom and teachings have been a source of enlightenment and inspiration for us all.
Same goes for hinduism thousands of years ago hinduism gave Vidushis ( female Vedic scholors ) who defeated many rishis in debates Like Maitree, Gargi, alopi, etc
In Hinduism -- actually Sanatan Dharma -- we have forms of the God which are trans. Heck, we even have temples and festivals celebrating all kinds of people. If God hated gay or trans people, he would've never created them.

As a Catholic, let me explain. God created you as the best version of yourself. The reason people are like this in our opinion is because Satan has made these things normalized. Being gay isn’t a sin, only gay sex is. You can still be gay and go to heaven as long as you don’t sin. In our religion, trans people have been influenced by Satan so they aren’t accepted. Also, yes, you are right, God doesn’t hate the gays or trans, he just wants them to give up their ways in order to follow him

good video bro
I have some problems with how you presented this. You choose to compare the Jewish and Muslim beliefs and current political turmoil. But you play the Christian responses off of non-believers or former Christians. This comes off as more biased and critical of Christianity than the other religions. You also ask more critical questions of the Christian as well ie the question about the Bible changing over time, but this question is not asked of the other belief systems. This not only reveals a more critical attitude of Christianity, but an ignorance of the weaknesses of the other religions. It feels like you didn't do as much research on the others, and just took the regular secular talking points that are usually directed towards Christianity but not other religions. Plus, asking the homosexuality question of the Christian but not of the others is problematic as most of the other religions also have an issue with homosexuality.
To better get a grasp of what each religion truly thinks, you need to talk to experts, not just people on the street. Find big name theologians and religious leaders who know what they're talking about. Also, instead of finding random secular people on the street, why not ask more educated agnostics or skeptics?

Where the hell is mentioned sumlaingik vivah ? What Sanskrit scriptures you have read ? Is saimlaingik btw, and the vivahs are of 8 types and none of them are saimlaingik vivah. In Hindu scriptures marriage is for man and a woman, but there is not mention of saimlaingik relation not saying it sin nor saying it is a good thing , it's just not mentioned not discussed it's upto today's religious rishis of Hinduism to discuss it taking on account of all the modern parameters and little details from scriptures wether it would be sin or not, an most probably of it is not mentioned it would not be sin.

As a muslim living in India, I can say in hinduism sexuality has never been a sin. It's the individual karma which decide the fate of one soul in the cycle of living & dead. Karma can be good or bad depending upon one's actions or how you treat others.
no lets say if one fucks with someone or more people just for fun and enjoyment then marries someone else or does extra marital affair or cheats someone it is the biggest sin in hinduism such people will 100 percent be sent to hell
@@pikachu69-k3rthere is no eternal Heaven or hell in Hinduism. Yes if one does bad karma they can be move to bottom realms but can be rise to upper realms if they can erase such karmic action.
@@pikachu69-k3r its still not the sexuality? Sexuality has nothing to do with how many people one person fucks with also a person can have sex all they want but in that process if they hurts someone emotionally or physically that is when they will have a bad karma and hence if after marriage u cheat it is considered a sin because u r hurting the other person emotionally.
@@pikachu69-k3r ??? What the heck???
Also by moving down the karmaic realm means you'd be born in a lower caste
Hinduism is not religion
Its dharma
Which is basically means duty
drama ?
It's Dharm/धर्म not धर्मा

In Hinduism, heaven and hell are attained according to karma, as God has said in Bhagwat Geeta. As you sow, so shall you reap. Just like Muslims and Christians say that if you don't adopt our religion, you will burn in hell 😂 Please send the video of hell so that we can know whether Christians and Muslims went to heaven or hell.😂

@@LIBRAcantalk that's nice to hear ✨ 😊
Actually the hare krishna , in foreign is mostly by " iskcon" which is good but in many away from truth of sanatan,
They are more of abrahmic
,
They say Krishna is supreme
Which in way he is
But scriptures say that he is one form of Vishnu .
So there's just one supreme conciousness,
Those who see it as krishna
Call it krishna ,those who call it shiv see as shiv .
It's quite complicated,and that's the mystery .
It is said that it is even mystery the true nature of "parbrahm" (supreme counciouness) that even they seek them and they too are different in several universes and many earths they also seek moksh (free from cycle of life of death , they live in heaven where abrahmic religions aim to be ) ,
We all are seeking, those saints of us who achive purity and understand soul and purpose ,become demigods .
And though parbrham is one ,
But manifests as two "shiv" (conciousness) and "shakti" (energy) .
They both are one and can't be differed but they manifest as divine masculine and divine feminine.
Shakti's upasakas see her as supreme
Shiv's see him
Vashinavs as isckon see vishnu or Krishan as him .
But they are all one, just different faces .
All goddesses are forms of shakti (as energy)
Like mild forms or destructive forms (chaos like ,ultimate end of everything) , and powerful who Destroys demon .
Mostly she manifests as 3 as 3 different natures - "satva" as saraswati (also happens to be goddess of flowing water,intellect, conciousness, knowledge, gyan, aescticm , music ,speech )
,rajas as in the red colour, not bad but like colour ,the essence of human life ,
One a married person have ,
As Lakshmi (depicted as goddess of wealth,money,fortune but she literally means one to help achive "lakshya" which means aim , so she is Lakshmi,
Today's world see aim as reaching wealth and all so see her as goddess of fortune .
And 3rd ,of "tamas" is "mahakaali" , tamas of dark anger,lust, and all .
She' s not them, she frees from them,
She frees from them,
She's ultime destoryer,
She ends all bad things,
In end of every universe and time cycle she ends the very fibre of reality .
But she's the kindest mother,
She is slayer of demons .
In rajas lakshmi as helper to reach "aim" ie. Satva or purity
Thus she is a helper ,the one who helps achieves aim
She is in process towards satva thus "Lakshmi" .
They further have many forms,
As saraswati in "Gayatri " form gave "vedas" (the supreme texts ) ,
Lakshmi takes many forms ,
Thought Lakshmi and Saraswati are providing forms of knowledge,waters, fertility,and all but also in some forms slay demons .
These 3 are like divine energies,
They don't have husbands and all, or respectively gods .
These create everything,
They are supreme and 3 forms of supreme consciousness
,three goddesses
Saraswati (not MahaSaraswati)
Lakshmi (not mahalakshmi as above)
And parvati /shakti/sati/uma (she takes kaali form when killing demons and many other forms as mother, protector,and all)
They give boons who to their devotees when they are prayed to, and take birth as daughters .
In history, one rishi named "katyayan" asked supreme consciousness to take birth as his daughter in his home,
Being his daughter named "katyayani"
And she did, she grew and when a demon named
" mahishasur" was being menace,
That girl took "durga" form
(Many hands, and gods gave her their weapons she used, )
And killed mahishasur
The same energy took birth as himalayas' daughter ,named "Shailputri" (daughter of himalaya) ,her mother called her "uma" when she was doing very hard penance to achieve shiv as her husband again (the body was mortal,the goddess wasn't she is energy ever changing but can't be destroyed ) as Himalayas' daughter she was demi goddess's body so she did penance for several thousands years,
And later shiv (not conciousness,a physical form who achived that state)
woke up from meditation and they married , she wore moon on her forehead (called "chandraghanta",
Next form , depicted as pregnant woman,
"Kushmanda" (being cosmic womb egg of ultimate heat , "ushma " means heat and "anda" means egg)
It is said to be form in which she gave birth to universe from her divine womb ,and matching somehwat big bang,
A small egg of unlimited heat and it from a point blasts to all extends and cool down .
In next she is depicted as mother then a protector and in last form of "9 durga" (forms of parvati,the shakti has many forms) is giver of superpowers like an adult woman of house who is provider of knowledge,
These are very kind forms and motherly, u just pray to them from true heart and devotion ,u r are all good
These are all kind and forgiving,
There are "10 mahavidya" they are like codes ,they are not like oh mother ,they are raw energy , u gotta do all right things in tantra and process and like ,u gotta do exact right process of complex tantras,sacrifices . Their energy would consume u ,
They are mothers but u can't like oh mither give me power,
They are codes of energies
U gotta do it with siddh guru
Not easy to find ,
Their energies can kill u,
They are worshipped by ascetics and notnin homes .
Ultimately it's one shakti ,
Who resides in everything,
For her it is said "she is ever permeable, the suns move through Her, humans, gods,demons she permeates everything .
Well exactly what today's energy is !
The demons who had ego that woman can't kill them were killed by woman , and thougt they are complete but when shakti inside of them came out
They were ever weak, from creating havoc in universe can't even move .
Shakti is never destroyed just chnages form
Some so fierce, mere touch will vanish .
Some very kind and mild .
Overall she is one "mata AADIPARASHAKTI "
U can read " devi atharvashirsh"
In English translation ,
On Google it's magnificent and defines her so well .
From Intellect to speech,to feelings, anger, lust, goodness,kindness ,gods humans nothingness she is everything .
Isckon promotes Krishan with Radha (Radha is form of shakti) and (krishn of shiv)
Scriptures say "vishnu and shiv are one ,those who differ them are fools" (as in they are same parbrahma,)
Iskcon promotes shiv and Parvati are demigods but purans ( scriptures ) say radha herself worshipped devi "katyayani" (the one who killed mahishasur) to achive krishn as husband .

Here are the cores why it doesn't control human..
1) Believe in God! - Aastik - Accepted
2) Don't believe in God! - You're accepted as Nastik
3) You want to worship idols - please go ahead. You are a murti pujak.
4) You dont want to worship idols - no problem.
You can focus on Nirguna Brahman-shapeless, formless, infinite, without beginning or end(nirvikalpa brahama)
5) You want to criticise something in our religion. Come forward. We are logical. Nyaya, Tarka etc. are core Hindu schools.
6) You want to accept beliefs as it is. Most welcome. Please go ahead with it.
7) You want to start your journey by reading Bhagvad Gita - Sure!
8) You want to start your journey by reading Upanishads-Go ahead.
9) You want to start your journey by reading Purana -Be my guest.
10) You just don't like reading Puranas or other books. No problem my dear. Go by Bhakti tradition. (bhakti- devotion)
11) You don't like idea of Bhakti! No problem. Do your Karma. Be a karmayogi.
12) You want to enjoy life. Very good. No problem at all. This is Charvaka Philosophy.
13) You want to abstain from all the enjoyment of life & find God - jai ho! Be a Sadhu, an ascetic!
14) You don't like the concept of God. You believe in Nature only -Welcome. (Trees are our friends and Prakriti or nature is worthy of worship).
15) You believe in one God or Supreme Energy. Superb!Follow Advaita philosophy
16) You want a Guru. Go ahead.Receive gyaan. (gyan yoga)
17) You don't want a Guru.. Help yourself! Meditate, Study !(still gyana or raj yoga)
18) You believe in Female energy ! Shakti is worshipped.
19) You believe that every human being is equal. Yeah! You're awesome, come on let's celebrate Hinduism! "Vasudhaiva kutumbakam" (the world is a family)
20) You don't have time to celebrate the festival. Don't worry. One more festival is coming! There are multiple festivals every single day of the year. 21) You are a working person. Don't have time for religion. Its okay. You will still be a Hindu.
22) You like to go to temples. Devotion is loved. 23) You don't like to go to temples - no problem.
You are still a Hindu!
24) You know that Hinduism is a way of life, with considerable freedom.
25) You believe that everything has God in it. So you worship your mother, father, guru, tree, River, Prani-matra, Earth, Universe!
26) And If you don't believe that everything has GOD in it - No problems. Respect your viewpoint.
Yep. The only fundamental principle is doing the Righteous things, your duty. The duty of being a good, strong, and smart human who can stand up for others.
When you accept everything, you stand for nothing. Very weak religion

@@LazySockcaste is nowhere mentioned in the Vedas. What's mentioned in Vedas is a 4 way division of work - a group of people who devote themselves to God, the Brahmins. Another group who protects Brahmins and Hinduism, the Kshatriyas. Another group who brings fortune and prosperity to Hinduism, the Vaishyas. And another group who takes care of the basic needs of all the 3 groups, the Shudras.
Caste system was a human concept. It was a manipulation of the 4-way work division, where earlier people who could change their division, were not allowed to do so. Eventually this coagulated into the rigid caste system that we had (it was banned a long time ago) where Brahmins used to have the most powers and Dalits were treated poorly.
@@LazySockthere is no any caste system in Hinduism.
From where did you learn that caste is mentioned in Vedas??
Do you have any source or proof?
Nowhere mentioned about caste system.
There is only varna system in Hinduism, which is purely based on division of works of society. It's not based on birth, but it is based on work only.
A priest and teacher is known as brahmin.
Warriors known as kshatriya.
Business people or shop keepers known as Vaishya.
Worker people known as Shudra.
So, it's not based on birth... anyone can become brahmin, kshatriya, vaishya, shudra by their works and duties.

Growing up Hindu, my initial engagement with the faith was rooted in tradition. Over the years, however, my connection to Hinduism deepened significantly. As I delved into its teachings and practices, I found profound meaning and inner peace. Rituals, meditation, and the study of sacred texts offered clarity and purpose, enriching my life in unexpected ways. This deeper commitment stemmed from a desire for personal growth and a more purposeful existence. Embracing my faith more fully has not only strengthened my cultural ties but also brought me closer to a sense of spiritual fulfillment and understanding.

Here are some points that are often critiqued within Hinduism:
Caste System: The caste system, historically linked with Hinduism, has been criticized for promoting social stratification and discrimination. The practice of untouchability and the marginalization of lower castes has led to significant social injustice and inequality.
Gender Inequality: Certain interpretations of Hindu texts and traditions have been criticized for perpetuating gender inequality, particularly in the roles and rights of women within society.
Superstition and Ritualism: Some critics argue that certain practices within Hinduism can encourage superstition and ritualism, which may overshadow the spiritual and philosophical aspects of the religion.
Sati Practice: Although now illegal, the historical practice of Sati (widow immolation) was linked to Hindu customs and is often cited as an example of extreme patriarchy and oppression of women.
Dowry System: The dowry system, which is still prevalent in some parts of India, is sometimes linked to Hindu marriage practices and has led to financial strain and violence against women.
Caste-Based Violence: There have been instances of violence and discrimination against lower castes, particularly Dalits, which are often justified by rigid interpretations of caste hierarchies.
Religious Intolerance: While Hinduism is often described as a tolerant and inclusive religion, there have been instances of religious intolerance, particularly against minorities within India, which some argue are fueled by certain nationalist or fundamentalist interpretations.
Environmental Concerns: Certain traditional practices, such as the mass disposal of religious offerings in rivers, have been criticized for contributing to environmental pollution.

Exactly this is the truth. In India they convert the poor and suffering villagers in the name of help. This is the reasons why every 4th person in Indian villages is a Christian. I would have appreciated the missionaries if they had helped people with their own hard earned money and without the conditions of conversion. But the fact is they get foreign funding to keep their work on. This is not humanity or greatness. Anyone could help suffering people if they get foreign funding. One becomes great if he spends his own money to help poors.
There is no foreign funds to convert now a days. I think this government banned it. So, what is the drive for the pastors to convert ? They convert to get tithe. Yes, they convert gullible people and instill fear that if they don't pay 10% of earnings, they will be punished by God. It is very profitable to be pastor. It will be draining to be Christian in india.
The funny thing is that most of these villagers are poor and suffering because, of the 200 years of Christian oppression and after independent ruling gov still following those oppressive Christian rules.😇

@@rafalodeaogo3032 you just assumed that I am praising Buddhism from what I said. The core ideology taken from Vedas is that "there is a Brahman" and one must attain "liberation". You can almost say that Sanaathana Dharma is the mother and it is the greatest and relevant lifestyle forever.
Siddhartha was a follower of Sanaatana Dharma which he found was complex with many rituals during his time. So he suggested an alternate lifestyle to attain liberation. It got divergent among his followers and evolved over time.
Btw, I am a Sanaathana Dharmic.
It didn't
Buddha wasn't satisfied with the negative sides of it so he wanted a new path. It is inspired him not the the other way around.
Buddhism is basically the complete opposite of Hinduism which is based on Veda. Buddhism does not take Veda to be True Knowledge and denies the concept of Athma.
What you can say is that Buddhism evolved in opposition to Hinduism.
You don't have to do anything with Vedas or other scriptures to be a Hindu. It goes beyond scriptures. If you follow native Indian culture, which has innumerable traditions and schools, you're Hindu. So Buddhism Sikhism etc are all hindu too as they originated in India.

Buddhism and Jainism grew, thrived and spread to other countries peacefully only because it was in a Hindu (santana) community.
Buddha or Mahavir were not tortured or harassed, instead they found many disciples who formed a fully established sub-religion within one lifetime.
Bhrahmans tried their best to supress buddhism . How else do you think that india reconverted back to hinduism from budhhism?

It also tells doubt and figure things out on your own not to follow mindless. But all religions have a lot of manmade stuff in them that are forced on others sadly.

@@emergencyambulance2017 what are u saying dude, ur conclusion is only a result of not understanding people. Everyone has good and bad in them. Most people are victims of their own circumstances, no one is Inherently evil. I know you will not take this advice but a lot of what you said can be better understood by going into human psychology. Having intrusive thoughts and acting upon it are miles apart from each other. And if thoughts had the same consequences of acting upon on it then we wouldn't do that often either. What religion is, it is a supporting stick when things fall apart and things don't make sense. Knowing someone is watching over you and things happen for a reason alone can mentally make you stronger. Religion exists because it has benefits and I am grateful that people who are victim to their circumstances and lives in this unfair world were given a reason to live another day because of the support, hope, belief, purpose it gave them when they were about to end it all. This does not make them weak for using religion as support because the alternative route is way harder. As we all don't start at the same starting line.
As hindu I know what you mean dualism advait by madhva said same thing.

I'm neither a Buddhist nor a citizen of Myanmar. But I'd like to tell that the incident that happened in Myanmar with Rohingyas that things has been going on from decades and most of the time it was the Rohingyas who attacked Buddhist and Hindu villages but once the Buddhists retaliated the world started crying about Rohingya crises, people should look back in history as to know why it happened.

Buddhist leader has clearly never heard of the Buddhist takeover of Anghor Wat, which was originally a hindu temple and it wasn't asked for nicely
That's an oversimplification of both Khmer & Buddhist history. There were many religious, war faring neighbouring regions of that time. King Jayavarman VII, whose was a pious Buddhist, was indeed a pacifist for a long time and actually left the capital cause he didn't care to rule, that is until he felt he had to after Cham invasion of the capital (and the killing of his brother/cousin). So in essence it was self defense/duty, not necessarily in the name of Buddhism.
After leading the rebellion and taking back Angkhor, he lead the empire into its golden era and majority of the population then converted to Buddhism. In Buddhist texts, we are taught that we are not to kill and choose peace. However, we also acknowledge in this world there is duality & fear affects all.

@@apostatethegreat.9398 The Hindus in Bhutan that were persecuted were ethnically Nepalese called lothsampa. I am from Nepal we had upwards of 100k people flee to Nepal. I also grew up Hindu but later took the teachings of Buddha and became a lay Buddhist myself. IMO anyone who harms others and calls themselves a Buddhist is a hypocrite because it goes against the core teachings of Buddhism.
Growing up a Hindu I also know the general consensus of Hindus view on Buddhist, some see it as a sister religion, some claim Buddhism is basically Hinduism (but never practice anything remotely Buddhist), and some outright despise Buddhism. I am guessing you fall on the latter category, perhaps you see it as a threat to your own religion like how your ancestors did and persecuted Buddhists (Muslims did more) out of India. Idk what your quarrel is with Buddhism 🤷🏽♂️
Lastly I think there is a specific reason you left out Rohingya of Myanmar which were also prosecuted by “Buddhists” and that’s because theres a massive rise of anti Islam sentiment in India specially with the far right Hindu groups on the rise and I am guessing your part of that? Also your Chanel pretty much gives it away ig, anyway my point is I don’t have any quarrel with hindus or any religions in fact I just want you to understand that there are religious extremists in every corner of the world and we shouldn’t judge people or religions by the actions of one group or person, instead judge them based on their teachings and compare them to your own moral understanding of what is right or wrong.

But administators wanted power so they implemented law that doesnot allow change in work causing manual labour workers children be manual labours. And boom there comes pride and everything else.

The best way to understand Hinduism is by the Bhagavad Gita.
In Hinduism, it is not about heaven or hell. It is about breaking your life cycle and attain Moksha - Uniting of Atma(Individual Soul) with Paramatma(The Supreme Soul).
How do you do it?
Many paths are prescribed such as :
1.Bhakti Yog : Devoting yourself to the Paramatma(you may call it God), either in a formless way or even through an 'Ishta Devata' (A form of your choice). You can think of your 'Ishta Devata' as your son, your lover, your father, your mother or just as God. There are examples of great and revered people who have done this.
Important thing is Bhakti.
And what is Bhakti?
Bhakti is the supreme stage of Love where you don't expect anything in return for the love you give.
2. Karma Yog : Karma Yog means doing 'Nishkam Karma'.
What is Nishkam Karma?
The Principle of doing your duty, how pleasant or unpleasant it may be, and at the same time not caring about the result. That is your doing your duty for the sake of doing it and not because you want to attain its result or outcome. When you expect the result, you'll fall into the cycle of Karma. But when you do Nishkam Karma, you'll not do so. Like this when you break the cycle of Karma, you'll get Moksha(Salvation).
3. Gyan Yog : The pursuit of Knowledge.
You dedicate your whole life in the pursuit of knowledge. And at one point of time, all your knowledge will lead you to Enlightenment and you reach a state of divinity. And you will lead a perfect life and when you end it, you'll get Moksha.
The most difficult part and important thing to be understood is that you should not get proud of your knowledge. You should be always ready to learn from anywhere and anyone, even from a person who is generally considered wortless,idiot, crazy or an outcast.
These are just 3 ways. There are lot more.
Best explanation for Hinduism , thank you 🙏
The second point can be challenged by someone who is not Hindu: What about a bad person doing bad things (like a terrorist) or a sociopath?
That's why one important aspect of karma yoga is 'contributing to the well-being of others,' thus striving to create a harmonious and compassionate society.
Ya
yeah wife burning cult that still practiced today.
@@51lkyw4y so do the karma, you will get the result as your karma is. Good result for good karma, bad results for bad karma

Hinduism , Sikhism, Jains, Buddhism, Indian Paganism, Indian Atheism are one family of religions called as Sanatan Dharma. This is why they cannot be compared to Abrahamic Religions because in Sanatan Dharma, these is no concept of religion or following a single book, but seeking ones path in life though devotion, meditation, study of books, chanting, charity etc. Its more way of life rather than set of beliefs.
abrahamic religions too have a way of life, infact a better and more virtuous way of life
@@samamethyst997 No abrahamic religions does not have a way of life as its a codified set of rules dictated by the books from god/creator. This means life needs to be modified as per those set of rules that than following its own way. If you think its a better more virtuous then i am happy for you. Keep following what you believe is right and betterment of this planet.
@AA12434 do you even understand the definition of "way"? Dharmic religions don't care about anything in simple terms no heaven no hell no rules do whatever you want, it's not a way to the truth and the good it basically states you can murder someone and it's alright, whereas abrahamic religions follow rules to not kill, be kind to everyone, pray remember god atleast a few times a day, give charity for good deeds whereas dharmic ppl are like "oh I will not give money because it's my money" and you people won't even regret because of your "way of life".
homie these are the reasons why dharmic religions are basically atheism and abrahamic religions are the true ones
@AA12434 dawg do you even understand the meaning of "way"? It's a path of good and virtuous which people follow to be a better person, it's like a goal, even if you are capable without a goal you aren't achieving shit

There is a word called 'Blasphemy' as a Hindu i never knew about it up until recently because as a hindu we are taught to question everything even God but sadly with the other religions you don't get that freedom...if you question the God then you are as good as dead 😅
There are 6 schools of thoughts in Hinduism and you can question everything even God and then there are different explanations as per different school of thoughts and as per your logic you can choose what you want pretty cool right 😊
Doubting Thomas is about a guy questioning God. Clearly Jesus was disappointed, but yet he gave him the exact proof he was looking for. If your question is genuine, God will answer. You may not like the answer, we humans don't like the idea of someone with the moral authority to tell us we are wrong.
@@Hey.SumitDas The schools of thought sound similar to Christian denominations. But for Christians they do believe there is one that is correct and all the others are slightly wrong. Objective truth exists.
When you say you can choose which school of thought you want. Are you implying truth is relative and all are equally valid?

The main difference between Abrahamic religions and Dharmic religions which include Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism and Buddhism is how they operate.
Dharmic religions never say your god is false our’s is the true god and you must convert or god has sent us to show non believers even those who are from different religion to pray to the the real god which is their religion.
Abrahamic religions are monotheistic. It stands to reason that if that claim is correct then God wouldn't be very happy about you rejecting His way of doing things for one that humans made up. Honestly, these Dharmic religions as they are presented here make no sense to me. It's probably because we didn't get to hear much of the actually doctrines but the surface level presents a "anything goes so long as it feels good" message. Both the Christian and Muslim could give a clear answer on homosexuality. Maybe I missed it, but I didn't hear the others give any answer at all. Certainly with how important sex is in religion they must have some belief on how this issue with effect your relation with God?

@@viperstriker4728 Dharmik faiths believe God is inconceivable, but whatever humans think is conceivable so God is beyond human comprehension. If you think any religion is true then why they are coded in a language most the the humans cannot understand, why animals don't have to follow a religion, aren't they part of God's creation, doesn't a rat not giving a shit about his creator offend the creator, and what is offense if not a emotion controlled by our own body, so a God with no body have animalistic emotions? What about the people who came before the religion? God has other ways to deal with them? Those who are born with abnormalities? Why made them suffer? Those who's brain do not develop enough to understand anything? But somehow speaking gibberish in a particular language makes God happy and gets you heaven, with Virgin even and whatever you desires? Sounds like ultimate human male's desire? What about the kids who are too young to have sex will they also get virgins with elastic hymen?
If you start questioning Abrahamic faiths turns out it's nothing but bunch of bs created by war lords to control human minds. I guess isolated tribes will all go to hell? But for what not making efforts to contact and lear God's favourite people? Poor souls.
@@viperstriker4728 Dharmic faiths atleast wrt Hinduism is centered around individual and not at community level with goal attaining eternal salvation on the pholosohpy of karma, so the tenats of it doesn't forbid something just because the community did not like it, this is the reason why there is variation in the way Hinduism is practised as culture of the community of a locale influences the practises even when the faith doesn't forbid something and casteism is just one example of the culture inspite of the faith not endorsing it. Same is the reason why caste hiearchy is seen in christians and muslims of south asia inspite of those faiths not having that concept. Finally the tenats of Christianity and Islam represents the cultural norms of the community of the time period when these faiths are formed and so is their vehement opposition to anything that doesn't conform to this rules while the dharmic faiths recognize the fluidity of the community norms doesn't forbade something just because majority think so. While so called advanced societies like USA are still debating whether a woman can lead a nation or abortion should be legal or not, these are never a center of discussion in the dharmic regions as it is left to individual choice.
@@chandu25abc20 I am not sure how you can claim Christianity conforms to the culture of the time when Christian history is a repeating story of Christians being killed for not going along with the culture of the time. Allow me to give some examples.
The sabbath was basically tossed out.
Paul addresses women when giving his version of the household code, you won't see that from the Romans or Greeks. They addressed the men and told them how their women were suppose to behave. I am sure you can see why that difference would have upset the culture of the time.
You have a few other misconceptions. The US is actually run by feminism right now, so there is no debate. We have had several people running for president with being a women being one of the main arguments for why she should be a elected. Basically every show depicts the majority of leadership as female now. So.... your wrong.
And how is a women in leadership an individual choice? I as an individual decide I should rule over you.... yeah, clearly this is a societal choice.
Abortion is the same way. If I as an individual decide a racial minority is "just a clump of cells" does that mean it isn't murder to kill them? That's not a joke, some people during racial segregation didn't think black people were human. If you deny babies the rights of a human, then your just as bad.
Muslims are portrayed so poorly in the media, your the first one who actually talked to a Muslim, and the Muslim guy seems like such a nice gentle sensible guy.
I mean not surprised since the pain and suffering these guys cause other religion with their beliefs and spread it causing islamophobia and hatred towards them

Excellent video Gen! during my 6 years living in Japan I started doing a deep dive into Buddhism, visited all of the major Benzaiten temples across Japan, and it lead me to learn more about Hindu dharma as well. There seems to be some trend about post-pandemic there's been an upsurge in spiritual quests. What a great deep dive you did, and for your openness throughout.
love that - will be in japan for a month in oct. so maybe its worth exploring it further
With due respect, I would say or inform you that Buddhism is just an extended branch/part of Hinduism as Gautam buddha himself was Hindu.
Sidharth got born in Hindu/Vedic family in Nepal. He took his primary knowledge from his hindu parents and teachers. Then in his early age, he left his home and came to Bharat/India and started taking knowledge from gurus of Vedic/Sanatan dharma.
He became Buddha only after he got enlightened in Bharat.
He got born as hindu, lived his life as Hindu, and died as Hindu.
And most importantly, he never said that he has started new religion other than Hinduism/Sanatan Dharma.
Hinduism allows you to find your own ways to moksha... that's how buddhism and sikhism got born from Hinduism.
So, Hinduism is kind of parental religion for buddhism and sikhism.
@@vishalrao4073 I appreciate all the details. My comment was mean to compliment Gen on his open minded dive, and to give a little personal note about how in my own spiritual experience Japanese Buddhism lead me to do research, discover, and become fascinated with Hindu dharma.
I don’t aim to make claims about any religion or spirituality, just wanted to share a little personal note about how I discovered the wonderful spirituality. Worthwhile info all the same though, thank you.
@@JakeLavoieMusicI think you misunderstood my intention. I didn't deny or object your perspective or your views but I appreciate you.
I just wanted to give you more details because you live in other country, so you won't get those details easily in other country.
But as indian, we can give you much detail because Hinduism, buddhism, Sikhism, Jainism all four are Indian religions. And Hinduism is oldest religion from which buddhism and sikhism got born. And Jainism is also most closely related with Hinduism and many jains people consider themselves both jains and Hindus simultaneously.
You can ask anything if you want to ask about hinduism.
Btw, Hinduism is only major religion in world which worships goddesses as well.
Other religions only says that their god is male and they always denotes their god as he/him/his. Whereas Hindus worships female goddesses as well. And even one sect of Hinduism consider Maa shakti as supreme creator of this universe.
Few things of HINDUISM I want to share with you:
1) Hinduism Dharma is only biggest religion in world who worships female Goddesses equally as well. Other religions only says that their God is male, not female....but only Hinduism believes in this that universe is made up from both masculine energy as well as feminine energy, so we worships Goddesses equally.
2) Hinduism is only religion who gives rights to transgenders as well. Hinduism embraces transgenders similarly as any male or female. Transgender specially worships Lord Shiva as their isht-dev.
3) Hinduism allows atheism as well. Hinduism holy books gives full rights to atheism as to find own ways for their moksha/purpose of life.
4) Hinduism says or teaches about "Vasudhaiv Kutumbakam" which means "whole world is one family" so treat everyone of world as a family members.
5) In Bhagwat Gita, KRISHNA says "Karm kiye ja, fal ki chinta na kar" which means "do your duty/karma without worrying about the fruit of your duty/karma". It's one of the very powerful message to humanity.
5) KRISHNA says "wherever there is no respect of women, that home/region/kingdom/civilisation gonna be destroyed by Karma through the will of KRISHNA"
7) Hinduism never says that if you won't worship me or believe me, then you will be burn in hell or any kind of threats. But Hinduism always says to surrender your sorrows, pain and joy in feet of KRISHNA or SHIVA (or if you worship goddess Maa Parvati or Maa Kali). KRISHNA will take care of believers as well as non-believers equally because he is omnipresent and he don't do partiality for believers and non-believers because it doesn't matter for supreme Lord of this universe.

Well what can I say except consept of karma is pretty prominent in both of us indian goverment classified Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism and Buddhism as sanartan dharma so yep pretty much even jain can answer most of Buddhism related question
Both are Indian religion so of course both going to have many similarities in concepts and philosophy. There used to be many schools of thought in ancient India. Some of them died, and some of them survived. Buddhism is among them which survived and became more prominent.
Ig his behaviour kinda interfered with the monk eventually making him not intrested in the interview. Like for example shaking hands and tapping his back. That's kinda unacceptable in my opinion as someone who worships monks before I say a word to them
because both religions came out of india, it's preety obvious to share some commons.
As a Christian, it is great to look at both sides even if you don't believe them. Asking questions and telling people what you think. You're doing a great thing learning both sides without striking arguments. The problem with today is we get into arguments easily just by expressing our own opinions.
I want to make this clear. I'm a Jesus Followers, I believe homosexuality is a sin, I believe that you can't get to heaven by deeds but only by faith and salvation in Jesus Christ. Am I going to argue. No. I want to respectfully listen to both sides. And I like how you're doing that. God bless you.
Iam a hindu and in my own family we all follow different philosophy like my grandmother she's following bhakti yog which means like praying same with my mother but my sister she's following param yog means meditation+ divine yoga with satvik yoga and my father and me is proudly can say we are seeker which means we go through sastra veda and purana (religious book or we can say that scientifically proven book) as well as i also follow yoga and karmyog simply can say karma and my little brother he follows a philosophy called as charkavya + nayaya which are big philosophy
We're not confused at the end of these all philosophy sanatan (hindu) religion is about giving peace to yourself to your own mind that's it and again it's a big phrase here for hindus be a seeker not a follower divine within you will see the good! That's it.

Everything else is good. Why do you have to force scientifically there?
Hindu vedas came from a Brahma who lied and produced a false witness to claim supremacy.
Hindus continue this tradition.
Charvak is nothing big philosophy it's trash philosophy, there is nothing called philosophy in hindus , philosophy is a western term . Philosophy is not certain it's basically a well rational thought of , creative stuff which is not absolute truth , whereas our scriptures talk about darshanam , darshanam doesn't means philosophy it's western mistranslation ,, darshanam are not some randomly thought of stuff , darshanam comes from vedas and vedas are revealed by the Brahmn the ultimate consciousness, the modern and western approach of understanding those darshanam has made people fool to think of them as 5 separate philosophies whereas in reality all those 5 darshanam are not contradicting each other but are true different ways to reach or attain same reality , charvak like shit is some 2000 year old stuff , it's not from vedas , any random person can write philosophies but that will not be truth , everything has to follow vedas , if it doesn't follow vedas then it's trash , after Mahabharata which happened around 5000 bc the knowledge of Sanatan started declining, people started loosing culture and scriptural knowledge this and around 1000 bc the knowledge of Hinduism started getting distorted leading to various misconceptions, division, separation which led to clash and question on scriptures leading to emergency of half baked shitty so called philosophies like charvak and , any scriptures which doesn't follow vedas or written around 3000 years is fake and stuff of his own mind .

Honestly you did ask really good questions 🌸
Im a hindu and i was always taught to just follow my own path to finding who i am to find my own dharma and follow it and if i do that im a gud human not just a gud hindu but a human and i think thts more important than having to follow customs be urself but at the end of it be a gud human
Would hinduism then allow you to find other religions, if that were to mean “finding your own dharma?” Feels like it’s almost more philosophical way of living then
@@VuNguyen-fv5jl Yes it technically would allow that. Hinduism customs are only as strict or restricting as you allow them to be or impose on yourself.
Yes, it is a set of guidelines to help you live life in an optimal way to the best of its capabilities (small but obvious things like respect your elders, care for your family etc). But the degree of flexibility is also an inherent part of it.
Within Hinduism, it allows individuals to follow their own set of spiritual/religious practices. No two sets of people's prayers are required to be the same. People can pray to the deity they believe the most in. It's their prerogative. Whatever brings stability and peace to their life and helps take a load off their chest.
India is a big place, with many gods/deities, 'spirits' etc. that the people pray to.
It's not a foreign concept.
Christianity and Islam are just monotheistic beliefs that originated outside of India. That's all. Had they originated in India, then they would likely just be a part of the "Hindu way".
Unlike many other religions, like in Islam and Christianity, Hinduism doesn't condemn anyone else's religion or beliefs and say things like people following other religions cannot go to heaven or find salvation or stuff like that.
No one is a good human I used to follow my own path and thought if I set these subjective standards to myself and follow them then I would be worthy I couldn’t even take my own advice to be a good person. We are all selfish and self centered by nature.
@@sofiabravo1994 the world isnt ideal but we can only strive to be one yes we might be self centered at times but to help another when they might need it the most than u can be a gud human we r not gud humans at all times but to be gud even for an instance is worth all of it
@@VuNguyen-fv5jl hinduism is a guidance of how to live life according to my interpretation it doesnt tell me follow this certain path and all will be well it just guides me to follow my dharma and dharma isnt religion but it means what ur intended purpose in life is for a teacher his dharma is to be teach kids and guide them to be gud adults a doctor's dharma is to treat patients and a soldiers dharma is to protect ppl so everyone's dharma is different but if u r able to follow it u can lead a gud life

@@FTerrasson the caste system was based on educational levels and he actually look at it again. It’s actually the four pillows and how to build maintain a society of equality and if you actually read descriptions distressed about people can choose their caste, and plus yes it fell and ordered and the people try to fix it until Islamic invasions then later on European invasions most naturally the British empire which delayed it so now India as of now is trying to fix the problem thing about it invasion and occupation has hundreds of hundred of years equivalent into multiple generations
@@FTerrasson Ok genius disprove it, ur comment is useless without it.
@@FTerrasson no he didn't british did first caste census in india in 1875 and they took some bizzare measure to classify whose high caste and whose low caste. they measured people's nose . the people with similar nose structure with british were termed high caste and those not were placed in low caste.
before this census there were 3000 caste in indian subcontinent and british doubled tthem.
he didn't said caste was created by british but he did say the modern caste system as we see noe is creation of british, it's true, does it mean there were no atrocities in past because of caste system. NO there was but hindus time to time had there little update in religion which is called ' the bhakti movement' which used to address the wrongs in indian religion and solve it.
the caste isn't even indian word the original version is 'the varna system' which was basically a social hierarchy system based on your profession there were four levels - the brahmins[ those who do teaching, research, astrologer, doctor, all the high mental level stuff were brahmins], kshatriya[ the one who protects the land, basically military, police etc.], vaishyas[ business class, traders etc], shudra [ manual labour] the profession was passed in families for generation, the system was fluid anyone can level up or level down based on his abilities, as time passed the system became rigid so, many caste or jatis proliferated out of four varnas, now many 1000 year later among shudras the jatis who used to do stuff like leather tanning, toilet cleaner, sewage cleaner etc. became disliked profession and somewhat unclean and that was attached to people who belonged to that caste. that's how segregation started that people now started considering whole caste as unclean and impure, they were not allowed to enter temples and stuff this was all happening in same era as british arrived in india so they found a tool to exploit, they were no saviour as they potray in their books, first 100 years the company came in they didn't really do care about other stuff but to take control of many kingdoms of indian subcontinent, after first revolt of 1857 the british crown took over and come christian missionaries with them, they see a large population to be Evangelized, they recorded the so called atrocity literature with a large extent of exaggeration of what they call as brahminical religion. it also worked as great tool to keep indian population divided which was already divided.
this is just a short summary i'm providing, it's way complicated than that. i'm not blaming the british too, it's a fact that they did major translation of many ancient manuscripts and even destroyed them and there were keen to convert indians too. you want me to trust every damn thing my colonizer wrote about me in the branch of indology in the same universities which was created with the money earned by slave trade of indians into african lands.

●Then about flat earth/ round earth / elliptical earth conflict .
Dahaha word recently added into the dictionary But if you open 1st Syrian dictionary for dahaha meaning, it means that bird egg a like .
But after adding and changing the meaning of Dahaha , muslims tried to say. See Islamic book say about elliptical shape of earth lol . Open old Wikipedia history of that dictionary or webpage
●53 years old Muhammad married to 6 years old aisha ( girl child)
3 years later. Muhammad become 56 age so he broke virginity of 9 years old girl child Aisha .
● Alcohol never banned in islam , until soldiers were not ready for fight on the day after Muhammad ordered of attack.
Then suddenly fake Muhammad played drsms of Allah that he said Allah banned to drink of Alcohol. Lol

This is by far the best content on RUclips. As a person who follows the Hindu way of life, this video made me a lot more aware of the diversity in people's faiths and I think that is what the divine intended for us. We need to understand and recognize each other's beliefs without comparing and criticizing those beliefs from our individual perspectives. All power to you @GEN!
I'm a practicing Catholic, and if I had to hazard a guess, I think the reason you couldn't get any of your local parishes to participate in the interview is likely because the bishop of the diocese didn't want to risk potentially adding fuel to the already-raging flames of discourse. Catholic social teaching is WAY more complex than most people give it credit for, and though the Catechism lays out a pretty comprehensive breakdown of all of the Church's teachings, it's a massive book that even most Catholics haven't read all the way through. The Church has struggled for decades to accurately communicate the ins and outs of our beliefs to both members and outsiders alike, which is made all the more difficult by how often your average Catholic completely fails to practice what they preach (that's like, the entire reason we need Jesus so much--even when we're actively trying to do the right thing, we often still screw up). So yeah, if I was a bishop, and some of my priests came to me and said "Hey, so we got this invitation to talk in a RUclips video about controversial opinions across different religions, what would you like us to do?" my first instinct would probably be "that sounds like it could go all kinds of wrong and result in all kinds of conflict even just among our own parishioners. Maybe let's NOT rock the boat here." Even so, I am disappointed they turned down the invitation, it would have been a great opportunity to help close the gaps between these different worldviews and beliefs. Too bad you couldn't get Bishop Robert Baron, he would've JUMPED on a chance like this in a heartbeat, and he would've been great at explaining everything too. Anyways, absolutely amazing video as always!!! These are always so helpful in keeping my mind open and ready to hear people out, no matter how much I may disagree with them.
(edit, just because I know how people on the internet love to interpret things): No I don't actually know for sure that this was the bishop's reasoning, or even if the bishop was consulted or the pastors all decided individually to decline the invitation--this is 100% just my guess. The Church is not a monolith, sometimes different diocese do things that are radically different than others--we Catholics are just as obnoxiously complicated and messy as everyone else in the world lol.
I wholeheartedly agree with this, as a Catholic myself this is exactly what I thought! Hope Gen will make another video going deeper into Christianity and having Bishop Baron would be awesome

In Sanskrit it is pronounced as YOGA but in Hindi it is pronounced as YOG. So calling it YOGA is right.
योग is pronounced YOGA in Sanskrit but in Hindi योग is pronounced as YOG because Hindi language cuts syllables in the end. You can only pronunce योग(YOG) or योगा (YOGAA) but we cannot pronunce YOGA in Hindi language.
People who do not agree can refer to "The Sanskrit Channel" on RUclips. Refer to this video "Watch This Before You Start Learning Sanskrit!" where he doesn't cut syllables in the end.

@@Ms._Uniquee I read sanskrit. I am not saying that yogah is wrong. I am talking about cutting syllables in the end of each word in hindi language which doesnot happen in sanskrit. I even mentioned about the video to watch in my main comment for full info about sanskrit, but you didn't watch that. You are the person with half knowledge which is dangerous.
@@Ms._Uniquee
It is not Yogah. It is Yoga.
You conveniently hid the extremism of Rohingya Muslims and all other extremism in Islam when giving example on extremism by taking up Buddhism. I don't blame you though, everyone wants to have their head attached to their body.
These are not "muslims" these are munafiqs using islam as a way to brainwash and as a scapegoat
Were not Hindu mass Graves found killed by muslims in mayanmar ?@daviddiveroli9331
@daviddiveroli9331Ask Google what Mughal rulers did and Taliban and about Sharia laws and Bangladeshi Muslims and list goes on
I mean muslim vs everyone else is a world phenomenon.
@daviddiveroli9331 first try to know what Rohingyas did to Buddhist and Hindus of Myanmar. U will eventually understand the reaction of Buddhists in Myanmar. I am not justifying killing of people , but everybody has a right to defend themselves. Being an Indian we know first hand that how big of a menance Rohingyas have become in India. India gave them shelter and now they are killing people, raping women and trying to convert peole to follow Islam.
Hinduism actually one of the most underrated religion at least on internet, it is misrepresented, hated idk why politics due to lack of well marketing like other religions. Also hindu people respect Buddhist very much as they consider them to be like more pure version. To be put simply, a Buddhist do meditation, don't fight for whose god is real, aim for peace, generally don't kill or harm animals for taste like they are very peaceful those qualities are also supposed to be in a hindu but majority of them failed to become like that😅.( I may be wrong)
so you are saying that buddists are hardcore hindus haha
no i am not hating anyone but it is true, hindus, like lord ram are all for humility and kindness, but yeah somewhere along the line we got so confused and the media started playing with us a lot haha
Keep in Mind "प्यासा कुएँ के पास आता है"
Hinduism -(minus) the concept of soul and God = Buddhism. Hinduism doesn't have strict restrictions so most people follow how much extent they want to, like some r pure vegans, vegetarians and some eat meat. It is up to the person to find his path. ❤
We respect everyone who lives respectfully.
For me personally i have higher respect for Jainism.
"Debating over which God is superior, where they come from, and judging each other-this is where humanity falters. True faith lies not in competing over beliefs but in living them. Preach what you believe, but never judge another’s belief. Unity in diversity is the strength of humanity.
Sikhism's Founder Guru Nanak Sahib, 500 years ago challenged the convention of times and said that women are no less than men in any way. Males and Females both are equal for the God and none is superior to other. No position in Sikhism is reserved just for men. Women can do prayers, can serve as Granthis (similar to pastor in Christianity), can take part in war and can occupy political positions.
Guru Nanak Sahib Ji was a great Guru (an extraordinary spiritual leader) who was truly ahead of his time. He was one of the most enlightened beings on earth, blessed by God for the benefit of humanity. As Hindus, we deeply respect Guru Nanak Sahib Ji and hold him in high regard. His profound wisdom and teachings have been a source of enlightenment and inspiration for us all.
Same goes for hinduism thousands of years ago hinduism gave Vidushis ( female Vedic scholors ) who defeated many rishis in debates
Like Maitree, Gargi, alopi, etc
Not alopi It's apala
thats the diffrence between relegion and dharma , religion will always tries to opress and create divide and unequality
All these things already are part of sanatani dharam before sikhism born
In Hinduism -- actually Sanatan Dharma -- we have forms of the God which are trans. Heck, we even have temples and festivals celebrating all kinds of people.
If God hated gay or trans people, he would've never created them.
You are a real Hindu out there. I am Gay man and I often see Hindus hating on gay people without even knowing that Hinduism accepts gays.
You fool stop spreading misinformation
The God you're referring is not a trans
It's kinner
There is difference in kinner or trans
Kinners are not consider in LGBTQ
They are someone who are born with both parts etc
It's a rare phenomenon
@@2025Target-ku2xi no gay
No LGBTQ
We support only kinners
They are not the part of it
@@2025Target-ku2ximost hindus don't read any scriptures related to hinduism for them religion is used for festivals and marriage and important things in life its more of traditions than religion and when it comes to india it is highly patriarchal and with toxic ideals against women (I am an indian)
As a Catholic, let me explain. God created you as the best version of yourself. The reason people are like this in our opinion is because Satan has made these things normalized. Being gay isn’t a sin, only gay sex is. You can still be gay and go to heaven as long as you don’t sin. In our religion, trans people have been influenced by Satan so they aren’t accepted. Also, yes, you are right, God doesn’t hate the gays or trans, he just wants them to give up their ways in order to follow him
the muslim made the least sense of them all
What did he say that didnt make sense ?
why ? or you're just throwing words around
Proof? Or are you just a UK anti muslim rioter?
You are a Muslim@@kriggo1
That's cause he's whitewashing everything his religion says
Amazing video!! You’re doing a great job!!!❤
