The Varna system is very commonly misunderstood in the west, As it does not preach that your class or Varna is based in your birth rather it is based on your karma(here meaning "choise of profession or work") For example:- Son of the priest (Brahmin) can be a kshatriya if he chooses to be in the Militia or he can be a vaishya if he starts a trade or business. But this Varna system later divolves into "caste system" which forbids mobility of classes based on karma(work) and bases on janma(birth).

The Western influence on your ideas about Hinduism (more correctly Sanatan Dharma) clearly shows. The caste system is not rigid and is not allocated to you by your birth. The wrong idea was propagated by the British to divide Indian society and continues to do so to date (just like the now-debunked Aryan Invasion Theory). According to the scriptures, your mindset, actions, and profession (Karma) determine your Varna (loosely translated as Caste). So if you are born to a sweeper (shudra) but you spend your time learning and propagating the Vedas and performing Vedic sacrifices (yajnas) then your Varna will change to Brahman from Shudra which would remain if you chose your father's profession (which typically most Indians did in ancient times). There are countless examples in smritis like Mahabharata and Ramayana where a person performed different actions from that of the parents and thus, was able to change their Varna. One of the biggest examples is the Brahmarishi Vishwamitra who was born a kshatriya (warrior class), ruled as a king, but later in life performed severe penance, learned all the Vedas and was anointed a Brahmarishi (Brahmin or priestly class). Please research from actual Hindu texts and scriptures before spreading falsehoods about the Hindu religion.

Good understanding from a western person but not all correct .... 1)The caste system (Birth based discrimination) is not due to Scriptures or Dharma mentioned in Hindu scriptures. It was a social evil born out of greed and class differences . Infact very famous scriptures has pointed out that it was adharma(sin). As per scriptures, Brahmin was not a caste based on birth.. Brahmin literally meant " Any person who has evolved in spirituality". 2)The Aryan invasion theory where indigenous people are shown to be outclasses by relegion itself is just a fabricated story created by lestists to divide people & show marxist class struggle.

You generally spoke about the impersonal view of Hinduism, who's most influential proponent was Adi Shankara. If you read the "Vedanta" explanation in Wikipedia you will see that there are also 4 monotheistic schools of worship, called Vaishnavism. The Hindu monotheism tho is different from the abrahmic thought. It's polymorphic monotheism, the different Avatars of Vishnu are all the One personal supreme God, but they appear in different forms according to time, place and circumstances. They also differ from the idea of the ultimate complete oneness. The plurality of existence is an eternal fact as stated in the Bhagavad Gita 15.7 : The embodied souls in this material world are My eternal fragmental parts. But bound by material nature, they are struggling with the six senses including the mind.

The only thing they have to beat Hinduism with is the caste system, which is a SOCIAL CONSTRUCT rather than an religious one integral to Hinduism. If any of these people actually visited India they would know that all (traditional) people in India, even the Abrahamic variety, have caste systems more or less. It was initially fluid and choice/deed based, but later after civilizational decline fossilized into something rigid, further codified and rendered inescapable by the British and their evil bureaucracy. These critics hold on to the caste system like the last hope they have to hold against Hinduism, because it is all that they have. You can count of them being "mistaken/ignorant" about it for the foreseeable future. How else would you justify a religion that considers all humans as born sinners.

ur last slide was a great summary of the difference between Hindu Dharma and Abrahamic religions, totally with u there. Seems Hinduism scores win over the Abrahamics on every point. Then how did u conclude Hinduism is not closer to truth than any one of those religions? Unless u inherently believe the true nature of the Abrahamic God is evil🤷

The Council Of Nicaea created Christianity with the aim of mass psychological warfare that turns people into sheeple, to "Divide & Conquer/Rule" and to make it easy to commit slavery, Genocide and Ethnocide, Indentureship (Slavery 2.0), to invade converted lands to loot and plunder, to make converted lands into vassal states, etc. Example: Each Greek citizen was a warrior. A warrior could kill soldiers from sunrise till sunset, so a warrior could be equated to a lion while soldiers could be equated to wolves. An army of wolves cannot defeat a smaller army comprised of lions so it was imperative for the wolves to change the lions into sheep to conquer them. For this reason Christianity was created to give to the intended victims of invasions/attacks to make them more accepting of the invasions and attackers as they both shared something in common which is Christianity. Christianity taught the lions the following: * Love your (Christian) enemies as you love yourself. * Slaves, obey your earthly (Christian) Masters as you obey the lord thy God. * Forgive your (Christian) Oppressors/Invaders. * Pay your tithes (taxes) to your Christian Oppressors/Invaders. * Give unto Caesar (Christian Oppressors/Invaders) what belongs to Caesar, which is tires/taxes/resources from invaded lands gathered with the labour of the invaded peoples. * Do not fight for a place in the earthly kingdom as you will get a heavenly kingdom, meaning you are born to be under the feet, whip and oppression of Christian Invaders. * It is not your place to deliver yourself but you should wait for a Christian Messiah/Saviour who will never come to free you. * If a Christian Invader slaps you on one cheek then give him the other cheek to slap. * If a Christian Invader takes away your coat then you should give him your tunic as well. * ETC. Krishna Neeti (The Teachings Of Krishna) and other aspects of Hinduism was spread to Rome by Roman Traders after visiting India and then amended and adulterated by the Council Of Nicaea to such a great extent to create a new religion called Christianity.

Very true, the Bible was man made by the Romans and based upon the Gospel of Paul from Tarsus and his conversion to Christ on the road to Damascus. Sanatan Dharma is so incredibly old, that the timelines continuously change in the modern world, due to new archaeological findings, however, the narrative within this video, literally skims the surface of Hinduism and does not even delve into the Yuga's, or, ancient texts such as the Surya Siddhanta. The Indus civilisation was so advanced previous, the entire globe marvelled at the sheer scale of it's richness and invaders who came across civilised cultures, such as Mahenjo Daro (in Pakistan now post partition), copied the blueprint of the town's layout, as a template of the modern towns we live in today. Then there is also, the astrological implications of the Vedic Lunar calendar and the Dynasties of both the Sun and Lunar kingdoms; the tapestry of this culture is SO intricately woven, that it would a lifetime of research, in order to summarise a faith and culture, such as Sanatan Dharma. The Lord Yeshua was a kundalini Essene Master and had lived in India/Egypt, training with Yogi's and High priests, such as Thoth, hence his advanced mediation siddi's. Unfortunately, there is so much factual information that the West choose to ignore and dismiss about their own religious origins.

I don’t believe in afterlife. Whenever a human being attains consciousness, he is afraid of death, he can’t understand it, he is afraid to accept death, he can’t imagine nothingness. That’s where all the ideas of heaven and hell come from. Do you remember anything before you were born? No. So why is it hard to accept that after death it’s the same. I have done my own seeking rather than believing what my parents taught me, I am smarter than my parents, more educated, seen vile stuff, saw laws of Karma right before my eyes but I am grateful that my religion allows me to question it all, it’s ok to find your own truth. So here’s my understanding, God is -1 and +1 and everything in between he is nothing and everything, he is good and evil and everything in between, he is male and female and everything in between, he is demonic and angelic and everything in between, he is war and peace and everything in between. If you believe Jesus is your god then it’s your truth and there’s nothing wrong with that. God and creation is infinite he is truth and he is false, open your mind only than can you fathom the infinite nature of God. As a whole.

Good analysis, fairly correct on most of the details. Just a few additional points: 1. Your conclusion of whether Hinduism is true or not is based, as you yourself mentioned, on the words of Christ - i.e - a Christian perspective. There is nothing wrong with that. Christianity being an exclusionary religion can thrive only on the falsification of all other beliefs. Hinduism is universal, on the other hand, as you have rightly stated. Bhagavad Gita 9:23 is an expression of this idea. Krishna says: "Even those who worship others they believe to be God but do so with devotion, really only worship Me, but by an indirect method" In other words, Hindus would believe that by worshiping Lord Jesus or Allah, you are still worshiping the same essence, but since your method is indirect, samsara may entrap you yet. 2. There is now an increasing amount of scholarship on reincarnation. Many universities are investing in its research. Abrahamics used to just negate the idea before, which is why very little western scholarship exists on this, but one cannot deny that there have always been reports, even before the ideas of samsara became widely known in the west. One can argue that the West adopted to modern astronomy quite late in the game (well after ancient Greeks, Hindus and Arabs) because of the church actively rejecting all astronomical research that conflicted their understanding of Biblical cosmology, The same may be true of all esoteric concepts that Christianity currently rejects. Moreover, saying that there is no proof of reincarnation and hence I reject it, is problematic. You have no proof of Heaven or Hell or the Devil either. What you choose to believe is a function of culture and tradition, and your own reasoning. 3. Caste System was not meant to be by birth. Krishna mentions it in the Gita himself - castes are by actions and natural predispositions. You may be the son of a factory worker but your natural disposition is that of a scholar, and hence would identify as a different caste than your father. Likewise, the son of a philosopher or poet might go into farming, and choose a different caste for himself. The argument you can make is that this prioritizes scholarship and administration over commerce and labour. That is correct, but quite ubiquitous. Economics is based on this prioritization too. The books have repeatedly stressed that a low caste individual is AS entitled to moksha AS a Brahmin, based on the power of their devotion. The Gita and the Bhagvata Purana have direct confirmations on this. So this birth based distinction is a social corruption that Indians are now actively eradicating through positive discrimination.

11:45 For a Hindu there are many Gurus who have risen from the dead: Adi Shankaracharya for example left his body while his disciples safe guarded it and came back to life after a period of time into that same body. Thiru Moolar left his body to reanimate a dead body of a sheppard. In fact in Yoga philosophy there's a state called Samadhi (highest state of the 8 fold yoga) where the heartbeat stops breathing stops and all forms of life activities stop on the body of the sage entering that state. So the body in that state is as good as dead. There are so many Gurus in Hinduism who have entered such a state and returned back to life. Sri Ramakrishna and Sri Ramana Maharshi are recent examples. You can find documented conversations of medical doctor asserting the lifelessness of the body of Sri Ramakrishna when he entered Samadhi. As for reanimating another dead person, there are also many instances of Hindu Gurus reviving dead people. But for an enquiring Hindu these coming back to life and reviving some dead person is not a convincing evidence to accept a path. So has Hinduism developed a comprehensive set of philosophical reasoning to understand the nature of the self, the nature of God, the nature of the world and the nature of the relationship between them. These philosophies are the main aspects of Hinduism. In the past for a scholar to accept a particular philosophy in Hinduism he has to be defeated in arguments by a higher reasoning of the convincing philosophy. Of course for the lay person who's not interested in sich reasoning Hinduism doesn't force anything on him. For him the practical steps are given to cultivate love for God like repetition of a holy name of God doing loving worship etc. So unlike what you assumed, Hinduism doesn't say that only a brahmin can attain moksha or liberation. Hinduism says anyone practicing the spiritual disciplines can attain moksha. Hinduism says a person can attain moksha without even reading a single religious book. Even Hindu scriptures say that the scriptures are useless for attainment of liberation or moksha. It's the practice which is more important in the eastern religions and not just belief.

Just like the rest of the world, it too was polytheistic. Hinduism - a collection of varying and sometimes contradicting philosophies merged into one. The greeks had Socrates to bring them out ignorance. Im sure the indians also did but they ended up worhsipping him too as an idol. Real question is - why are christian nations developed? So developed that even the hindus and the Muslims want to migrate there? They feel safer under the values of the Christian God rather than their own. Think about it ;)

It is my understanding that a Brahmin's son need not be a Brahmin. That system was set by the British, where the Smith's son was a Smith. A Brahmin is one who studies, understands it completely and transmits the knowledge. Everyone (brahmin, ksatriya, vysya, shudra) studies, but the one that propagates is the brahmin. You are classified what you do, not by your birth. Ramayana, for example, was by Valmiki - born to a hunter. Also, I am sure the pyramid of hierarchy was also part of a Western creation.

In the beginning after creating Humans, God gave us the knowledge in Vedas. This is known as sanatan(eternal) Dharma. These knowledge was passed on by memorising and reciting. About 5000 years ago they were compiled in four books. There were many other scriptures created by enlightened Rishis who contemplated on Vedas by meditation. Some of indian scriptures are historic books for example Ramayana (19,000 years ago) and Mahabharat(5125 years ago). Part of Mahabharata is a Geeta ( discussion between Krishna and Arjuna). Many of Indian scriptures were burnt by invaders (mostly Muslims) and some were stolen and corrupted by invaders(mostly christians). Fundamentally there are three entities in universe. God (parmatma), souls(atma) and nature(prakruti). God uses prakruti to create universe as playing field for souls. In human forms souls must follow Veda during their life time while doing any action (karma). Our karma leads to our sanskara(character) which hides the true quality of the soul in the human body. That is what makes each human different. To obtain any thing we want in life we can obtain by following meditation procedure in Patanjali yogadarshana. Moksha is to remove all sanskara( created due to our karma) covering true qualities of the soul. which leads to one ness with the God(kingdom of God). In this state the soul enjoys the characteristics of God. There is only one God and all the demigods in Purana are the representation of individual characteristics of the God.

Good Attempt bro. No one can explain HInduism perfectly. Get two or more Hindus to explain what Hinduism is and you are likely to get that many different opinions - each of it correct in its own way and in their context. For us Guru is the spiritual master who leads us to salvation and many believe that moksha can be attained only through the grace of a Guru. In that sense what Jesus Christ mentioned is not entirely wrong. He was probably the only Guru in that area around the time and he was just mentioning the above fact that moksha can be attained only by grace of a Guru. Anyways, there are sufficient reference in local folklore that Jesus Christ was in India and Tibet for about 2 decades learning Jainism, Buddhism, Vedas.

This is most respectful and accurate take on hinduism by any chirstian channel without disrespecting US, Most Chirstian channels are very very disrespectful, and the only thing which pops up in my mind being a hindu is, how can someone really be that hateful after being a religious perosn. IN INDIA, DHARMA TEACHES VIRTUE AND NOBILITY AND HUMANISIM, NOT TO LIE OR STEAL OR DO BAD KARMA. Point is people like u come as a balance to the negative hate that we hindus receieve. We are own our thing sort of people, we really love and to stay in our own lane, and there is no such thing as converting someone or preaching some one about conversion into hindusim, because to core hindus are genetically and racially linked groups of societies which only exists in themselves, outsider cannot be converted to hinduism, you have to be born into a sanatani family and posses it to call and identify yourself as hindus. But point is its rare to find someone like u teaching the right and just not abusing us. Another truth about many gods. There are only 33 types of gods in hinduism. Only 33. The british translaters of sanskrit, misinterpreted 33 types to 33 crore ie 33 million. So not our fault. And most other gods are Reincarnation or Avatars of those 33 types. Hanuman is avatar of Shiva, Narsimha avatar of vishnu. Balaji avatar of vishnu. Etc. So its not confusing to us hindus. These avatars were way of those core gods descending and helping humanity in some form or other to establish balance.

Hinduism is so problematic. Thank you for pointing it out. I’m a Vaisnava, accepting Vishnu/Krsna as the Supreme and I’m glad you’ve seen the problems with Hinduism. The vaisnava tradition is personal and monotheistic and the goal is to get home back to Godhead as an individual and a person to unite with God who is also a person. What you have described is the philosophy of Adi Shankaracarya who came with the idea that we are just spirit souls who will merge into Brahman and lose our individuality. For your information, there’s been enormous opposition to this philosophy since it came out and it’s still going on. But the philosophy of Advaita-vada by Adi Shankaracarya is more or less the Hinduism we know today, everything is one, we are one. He was also the one who said that those who don’t have the brain to grasp the understanding of Brahman from the Vedanta-sutras has to take birth as a brahmana in the next life and proceed from there. In the vaisnava tradition this is absurd. In the vaisnava tradition anyone can understand Brahman by love and devotion to God. Birth is not a hindrance. As you said, most Hindus don’t read the scriptures, they just do what their parents did, and that’s also a problem. They do something for the sake of just doing it, it’s called blind following. Dharma has no good English equivalent. But it means duty/obligation and nature. It also means something upholds it’s existence. The dharma of fire is to give heat and light. It is doing its duty according to its nature. If fire does not give heat and light, you cannot call it fire anymore. Same thing with sugar, if the sweetness is gone from the sugar, sugar does not exist. The actual understanding of the cast system is that everyone of us must do out work according to our nature, according to out god given gifts. Some are natural carpenters, some are natural farmers or bankers, some are natural leaders, some are natural scholars. Your work should be satisfying for your mind. If it’s not, you’ll be frustrated and not satisfied, it may pay the bills but it’s not a good idea in the long run. This whole thing based on birth is a great misunderstanding and it’s creating so much problems. But it’s being followed unfortunately. Can’t write anymore, I wanted to say more things but time is not on my side. That I you for the clip. Have a good one!

@சாரதீ-ஶ்ரீனிவாசன் when you say philosophies, what philosophies did I mention more than Advaita-vada taught by Adi Sankaracarya and the path of smartas? None of these philosophies are actually about relationship with God since Bhakti is the only path about relationship, at least relationship based on love. In the Gaudiya sampradaya, moksha is a byproduct of bhakti. Moksha is not something we care much about. The love and devotion is our moksha since we experience the transcendental bliss from it. When I say that vaisnava sampradayas are monotheistic I mean that we place one deity above all others, designating him as God in the full sense of the term. The others cannot be God in the full sense of the term because God by definition means one who is the source of everything else, the cause of all causes. The others are devatas, empowered beings carrying out the affairs of the universe, under the rule of the Supreme. These devatas also recognize who the Supreme is. I’m happy to exchange words with a devotee of Sri Sampradaya, please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Laksmi-Narayana and Sri Ramanujacharya. Please excuse any offense I’ve made in this text.🙏🏼

@@Rama-tanu Ask stauch Abrahamic people what monotheism is(all three jk) we are called heathens because we worship multiple gods, if Vaishnav were monotheistic they wouldn't recognize any other god. Most hindu ceremonies still start with invocation of lord Ganesha, even the Vaishnav ones. In Vaishnav Lord Narayana represents Brahman while in Shaivam it's Lord Shiva, but both god still recognize eachother, that's why we have avatars like HariHar/Ayyappa representing the oneness of Both and Same with Goddess Shakti and Shiva's avatar like Ardhnasrishwar representing the the union of the male and female aspects of the divine and equality. In a sense whole Hinduism can be considered Monotheistic, but we aren't really, we don't see god just as one separate being in the sky, every being in this universe has the essence of Brahman our atman, we don't restrict the Supreme reality to our small human parameters of thinking, we have multiple gods, because Brahman appears to their devotees in the form they envision Brahman. It can be a simple stone or a magnificent darshan like Arjuna had.

@@zupergut3015 when I say that Vaisnavism is monotheistic, it means that there is no other cause of all causes than Vishnu/Krsna. Vishnu/Krsna is the source of everything: Brahman, devatas, Shiva, Ganesh, dityas, aditiyas, everything. I put Vishnu/Krsna as Gid in the full sense of the term without anyone equal. Sure we have expansions which are non-different from Vishnu/Krsna and equal, but Vishnu/Krsna is still the source of them. Yes God is not just some guy in the sky, limited to his position. But God is the source of Brahman. Not the other way around, that’s adi Sankaracarya’s philosophy. And it’s just atheism. If someone is finding Brahman in a piece of stone or in a bicycle or the neighbors hat then the practitioner must believe that Brahman in the source of everything. That’s monotheism but impersonal and not theistic. Sure realizing Brahman is nice of course. But in Vaisnavism we don’t accept Brahman as supreme.

@@SadanandaSadananda-rm3jp all the philosophies are true but not equal. Just as both levels of mathematics, kindergarten level and university level are true, one is higher than the other, with the lower level of mathematics included. Same goes here with the philosophies in Hinduism. But if you really understand the philosophy you should be able to know how to apply the philosophy. And not many are capable of doing that. Thus creating unnecessary disturbance in society in the name of Hinduism. Advaita-vada, taught by Adi Sankaracarya, and Vaisnavism by Vaisnavas such as Sri Ramanujacharya, Sri Madhvacarya, Sri Nimbarkacarya, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, Sri Vallabhacarya and more do not agree on the highest truth. According to Sankaracarya, Brahman is the highest truth, superior to Vishnu/Krsna. The Vaisnavas put Vishnu/Krsna as supreme, being the source of Brahman. Vishnu/Krsna is pervading the whole creation and beyond as Brahman. There is a huge difference here. Advaita is there in some vaisnava philosophies(vishishtadvaita, acintya-bhedabheda tattva) but it is not the highest understanding. This is the discussions between sankarites and Vaisnavas for centuries.

is hinduism the truth??? - this is wrong question hinduism is all about to find the ultimate/eternal truth. concept of god in hinduism is very similar to concept of energy in science generally energy is formless but when we observe it, it may converted into different type of particles and waves as per wave particle duality. god is very similar to this concept god is formless but when we observe it it may take different forms or menifastations as per observer's reference of frame. see, energy is constant it can't be created or distroyed and it remains even after dissolution of universe in form of dark energy. energy is eternal. That's why hinduism is also called as sanatan dharm which means eternal

It doesn't have a commandment like some stupid desert cult, it doesn't have one prophet like some cult in desert who was punished by the romans for seeking political power... It always have been it always will be... No matter which "religion" you follow one day when you actually see the truth with your own atman, then know that that is Hinduism.

I will always be perplexed by how much of it you can ever know in 1 lifetime and how much would still be left to be known and be discovered throughout the entirety of time.

Caste is not in scriptures, Varna (which people translate to caste in english) system is there but its is quality and action based and not by birth. In Bhagwadgeeta's 4th chapter, Srikrishna says to Arjuna, that Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya and Shudra group of four varnas, by division विभाग of guna गुण (quality, attribute) and karma कर्म (good deeds or bad deeds) I have created. In this way, even though I am the doer of those creations etc., consider me - the imperishable God - to be the actual non-doer. ॥ 4-13 चातुर्वर्ण्यं मया सृष्टं गुणकर्मविभागशः । तस्य कर्तारमपि मां विद्ध्यकर्तारमव्ययम् ॥ ४-१३ ॥

Conclusion is so idiotic, "Jesus says about multiple gods so Hinduism is not the true way to salvation". First of all Hinduism is not the appropriate name it should be sanatan dharma. It's the way of life, no matter what you are male female or any gender or nothing to be recognised as a perticular one, rich or poor that too in this modern world you have access to everything. You can achieve moksha in this Era very easily. Also there are no many gods there are many manifestations of the same God. You have covered many realities but unfortunately your ego doesn't allow you to seek the truth.

Sanātana-dharma aka Vaidika Hinduism (in contrast to Neo-Hindu, new-age sects which do not faithfully follow the Vedas) is truth. It is eternal truth. Any and all creeds which go against the Vedas are useless and shrouded in tamo-guṇa, This is the view of Manu and stated in Manu-dharma-śāstra. This video makes the classic mistake that most other people presenting Hinduism make. He confuses "Hinduism" as a term referring to a religion with "Hinduism" as a term referring to the indigenous culture of India. But these are two different things. Culturally, Hindus are not militantly averse to traditions different from their own. But that is not the same thing as saying that they accept all other traditions. "Hinduism" as outsiders understand covers numerous *distinct* religious traditions such as Vaiṣṇavas, Śaivas, Śāktas, Smārthas, and so on. Each has their own deity and own philosophies, and they are irreconcilable. But culturally, they all at least theoretically accept the authority of the Vedas (some more so than others) and follow superficially similar practices. Emphasis on "superficially" similar. Vedas which are also known as śruti are apauruṣeya. This means they have no author, period. They are co-eternal with Bhagavān. Just like nobody says that gravitation started when Newton codified it into a law, similarly the reality revealed by the Vedas did not start at some time. It always was. The correct translation for varṇa is NOT "caste." Varṇa as described in the Vedas and Vaidika texts is part of one's day-to-day sādhana and has nothing to do with socioeconomic hierarchies to enforce social privilege, as in the case of the European Christian caste system with its monarchs, nobles, clergy, and peasants. One is born into a varṇa based on his past karmas and consciousness, and thus inherits a set of duties that one must perform selflessly as works of devotion dedicated to Bhagavān. This is mentioned in Bhagavad-gītā chapters 2-5. Performed in this way, varṇa-dharma liberates one from the cycle of birth and death by cleansing one's self of one's past karmas that bind one to the material mode of existence. Gurus are NOT "incarnations of Viṣṇu" I have no idea where Ronin Church got this idea. A guru is indispensable for understanding the Vedas, because truth presupposes a certain degree of purity. Hinduism is not like Christianity where everyone can read the scripture, get his or her own idea, and then have violent conflicts over which interpretation is correct. A disciple needs a proper guru to guide him, to tell him when he errs, to help keep him on the right path, and ultimately to reveal the inner secrets of the Vedas. A guru is a devotee of Viṣṇu, and one who worships Viṣṇu must necessarily revere His devotees. Just like if you are respect the chief executive of a foreign country, you must show respect to his ambassador who represents him. Jesus was NOT an "incarnation of Viṣṇu." There is no śāstric basis for this idea, which was only invented by some modern, new-age, syncretic cults. As mentioned previously, anyone who goes against the Vedas is spewing forth a useless doctrine that will not help anyone. Quoting Manu: yā vedabāhyāḥ smṛtayo yāśca kāśca kudṛṣṭayaḥ । sarvāstā niṣphalāḥ pretya tamoniṣṭhā hi tāḥ smṛtāḥ ॥ manu 12.95 ॥ utpadyante cyavante ca yānyato'nyāni kāni cit । tānyarvākkālikatayā niṣphalānyanṛtāni ca ॥ manu 12.96 ॥ “Those ‘revealed texts’ that are outside the Veda, as also all the false theories, are useless, even when carried to perfection; as they have been declared to be founded on ‘darkness.’ Those other (doctrines) which spring up and perish are all worthless and false, being of modern growth.” (Manu-Saṁhitā 12.95-96) [translated by Ganganath Jha] Christianity does not even accept the elementary basics of spiritual life, namely the difference between the Self and the body and the eternal nature of all Selves along with matter. Christians like other Abrahamics believe in ex nihilo creation, which logically makes the faults of the creation due to the faults or cruel whims of their creator. And who can accept as a doctrine the idea that one must surrender to a supposedly benevolent deity who, if one does not accept him after one lifetime, will be eternally tortured for the rest of one's existence? These and other bizarre aspects of Christianity aren't just anathema to Hinduism; they are an affront to common sense. Brahman is NOT "different manifestations of the same principle." The word "Brahman" is derived from the word "bṛhat" which means "greatness." In its most common usage, Brahman denotes the Parama Puruṣa (Supreme Person), also known as Bhagavān and Paramātmā. vadanti tat tattva-vidas tattvaṁ yaj jñānam advayam । brahmeti paramātmeti bhagavān iti śabdyate ॥ Bhā. Pu. 1.2.11 ॥ “Those who possess the knowledge of the Truth (tattva) call the knowledge of non-duality as the Truth. It is also variously designated as Brahman, Paramātman or Bhagavān.” (Śrīmad Bhāgavata Purāṇa 1.2.11) [translated by J.L. Shastri] There is no equal to Brahman, period. anejad ekaṁ manaso javīyo nainad devā āpnuvan pūrvam arṣat । tad dhāvato ’nyān atyeti tiṣṭhat tasminn apo mātariśvā dadhāti ॥ Īśopaniṣad 4 ॥ “That (Paramātman) is unmoving; the One without an equal; swifter than the mind. The devas have not attained it which has already reached them. Remaining stationary it overtakes others that run ahead. By it Vāyu bears water.” (Īśopaniṣad 4) [translated by N.S. Anantha Rangacharya] The other devas (you people erroneously translate the term as "gods") are NOT equal to Brahman. There are many, many statements to the effect that the devas are subservient to Brahman. For example: bhayādasyāgnistapati bhayāttapati sūryaḥ । bhayādindraśca vāyuśca mṛtyurdhāvati pañcamaḥ ॥ K.U. 2.3.3 ॥ "From fear of Him fire burns; the sun shines from fear of Him. Indra, Vāyu and Death, the fifth run from fear of Him." (Kaṭhopaniṣad 2.3.3) [translated by Dr. N.S. Anantha Rangacharya] Again, Hinduism (the religion based on Vedas) does NOT have "many gods." People who talk like this are cringe. The translation of "deva" is not "god." The proper translation of the term "deva" is simply "deva." You cannot use Judeo-Christian terms to understand Vaidik concepts. Here is one example of why - the devas are posts held by exceptionally pious jīvas. All living beings are jīvas, and the births they get are due to the mixture of karmas that forces them to take another birth. The jīvas who take birth as devas have exceptionally meritorious karma. How is such a being a "god" in the Judeo-Christian conception? In fact, Abrahamic religions have no equivalent concept to what the devas are. Once again, Ronin Church is confusing Hinduism the culture with Hinduism the religion of the Vedas. There are many religious traditions that worship different deities. But the religion Hinduism that is based on Vedas has only ONE Supreme Entity. The many "Hindu" religious traditions you see mostly in India differ in their fidelity to the Vaidik canon and that is why they have differences in their objects of worship. The Self IS eternal and often "Self" is translated as "soul," although this is problematic. Which Christians speak of "soul," they mean that capacity of an individual to recognize divine truth, which they will never do because Christianity is a false, man-made religion. When Hindus use the term "soul" they mean the "Self." To put it simply, we do NOT lose our souls. We *are* souls and we get bodies based on our karmas. TLDR: This person's presentation of "Hinduism" is lazy, utterly bereft of any research of orthodox Hindu doctrine, and completely confuses Indian culture aka Hinduism with Sanātana-dharma aka Hinduism.
