Journey towards truth - my first blog

This is my first ever blog in my tech life. I don't know why it took so long for me to initiate one. Let me jump to the point. Let me start my blog with a positive note.

My first blog is not intended to hurt any religious feelings. But this is a journey towards truth. Though I am a Hindu, i have deep respect for all other religions and their followers as well. I have good numbers of friends in other religions.

But truth always remains unaltered. For many years I had a doubt, "who was christ?". Why majority of his life was kept a secret. But in the mean time I encountered instances where some of my friends got converted to Christianity and from that instance they started to hate Hinduism and see Hinduism as a "not to look, not to touch, not to talk" subject. Why this? It was hurting me a lot, because for me Hinduism is not just a religion but a way of living that was made mandatory in Vedic times for better people management both politically and psychologically.

This feeling propelled me much faster towards finding a solution on who Christ actually was? Somewhere he should have had connection with Hindu ideals, because his preaching were much similar to Hindu and Buddhist (a descendant religion from Hinduism)  preaching.

Another interesting discussion point was that the three wise men were Buddhist monks who found Jesus and came back for him around puberty. After being trained in a Buddhist Monastery he spread the Buddhist philosophy, survived the crucifixion, and escaped to Kashmir, India where he died an old man at the age of 80.

Where was Christ for 18 years? From his age of 13 to 30?
Discoveries say that he was one of the "Chosen one" for the post of Buddhist Lama. The following situation explain it all.

Except for those super natural elements like sun, moon, air, fire etc., all the other gods or the people worshiped as gods are the ones who lived as human beings. Its their Karma that made people to follow their way of living to attain good life like them and worship them because they respect him/her. This is the origin of idol worship. I accept that many of the idols are exaggerated. But the base element is true and existed once upon a time. Shiva, Parvathy, Ganpathy, Vishnu(s), Brahmma...all lived once upon a time. They lived a justified and noble life, each having their own significance. Hence they are worshipped till now. As the generations passed people started adding stories to magnify the supremacy of these people(gods), so that their subjects will worship them as they did then. As history says that harappan culture is the oldest culture, some evidences say that Kumari Kandam (a huge tamil kingdom)existed south of india and submerged in a huge tsunami (or) probably by melting of polar ice caps. The civilization moved towards north to escape the wrath of the oceans. Some of you would know that Harappa was not an evolving civilization. It was a burst of a civilization. The civilization bursted out in short span. This was only possible when a group of well civilized people settle and start their way of life. You might think what I am trying to connect with... HINDUISM IS NOT A RELIGION. It is a WAY OF LIFE that every human on earth should follow and live. There are scientific reasons for all the activities in hindu rituals. But as the generation passed by, people didn't have patience to explain all the reasons to their younger generations and they just set them as strong rules by saying that they will be punished if they don't follow it. Moreover, idol worship is the most easiest way to bring your concentration to one spot and intensify your brain waves.(people should agree with the power of brains...do you?). Even layman can make use of this technique, if there is a physical object on which he should concentrate rather than closing his eyes and concentrating on a virtual object. So thus originated the Idol worhip in HINDUISM. So this was part of the WAY OF LIVING of hindsuism. I am not a follower of HINDUISM as a religion but respect it a lot similar to the way I respect ISLAM or CHRISTIANITY. Because ISLAM and CHRISTIANITY (including other religions) are offsprings of HINDUISM, like SIKHISM. Like the evolution in animals, even the religions had their own evolution. In animals, after a repeated evolution at a stage the two species look totally different and they start fighting among themselves for territory invasion, without knowing that they once belonged to a common breed. Same is with those religions which are offsprings of HINDUISM. Hope all friends of this blog agree my view. JAI HIND.
