Everything is good or everything is bad, is the classical plaything of a mentally sick person. Any intelligent educated man will see a mixture of good and bad in any situation.
Religion is one area where the brain is literally forced to disappear when it is needed most.
Most religions of the world, especially those bound by the book, force their people to literally abandon any scrutiny by their intelligent brains.
Any questioning is heresy and any inquisitiveness is evil. The questioning may lead to the destruction of belief. Satan is everything that needs to be feared. Women and animals have no soul and man has to rule over women. Because the followers of this type of ideology have to justify their faith, they have to denounce everyone else to legitimize themselves. This is the ideology behind the quote ‘every religion is bad’. The politics around this ideology has made these artificial religions being imposed on humanity. On their own these beliefs are rejected by all intelligent people.
The leftist academicians who try their best to justify the beginning of the world from the beginning of their faiths have done a great disservice to humanity.
Their position on their faith is filled with imaginary tales, lies and deceit. In their apparent hatred towards Sanatana Dharma which is colloquially known as Hinduism, they have interfered with dates of sacred ancient History of India. They have indoctrinated their western audience with their falsity and biasness. For example, they reject the timelines of the entire Vedic history. They have tried to minimize the scriptural authenticity of Vedic scriptures into a more recent phenomena. They have attacked Sanatana Dharma by accusing it of casteism which was their invention. Their denial of age of Vedas speaks of their own insecurity. Instead of being ashamed of numerous atrocities on humanity in terms of violence in the forms of Crusades and Jihad. They have been biasedly and unashamedly attacking Sanatana Dharma by accusing it of the same. That’s why they also want to paint Sanatana dharma bad.
In contrast, the scientific systems like Sanatana Dharma believe in justice at all levels and to all species of life.
For them soul is the eternal aspect of life. Life is soul and soul is life. The human body and everything around moves because of the presence of that soul. Because of such importance to the soul, Sanatana dharma is the true spiritual culture. It is not just a dogma imposed on the human mind. It is itself a freedom from the shackles of material life. Truth and Justice are an important aspect of Sanatana Dharma. Not even one literature of abrahamic faiths or western literatures is even .001 percent of Vedic literatures in terms of sophistication and maturity.
Sanatana Dharma is vastly superior to any faith that Abrahamic philosophy can ever produce. That 1.3 billion Hindus are still there despite all of the western world’s political control and Faith Based Colonization, speaks loudly of their defeat.
Now it is time for Hindus to take control of the narrative of Sanatana Dharma from leftist academics and leftist politics. The Indian universities, schools and colleges affiliated to these western educational systems import that ideology in their own curriculum that creates a confused group of Hindu students who often go through that system. The western educational institutions control Hindu narrative through sponsorship money. Most of the facilities of Hindu studies in the west are strongly connected to Christian churches and therefore their commentaries are devoid of any academic merit. Aryan invasion theory is another myth peddled by western academics to justify their imaginary Christian timelines.
Francis X. Clooney, S.J., Parkman Professor of Divinity, Professor of Comparative Theology is a Roman Catholic Priest and has written a Christian commentary on the three holy mantras of Sri Vaishnava tradition. His commentaries are so way off, almost trying to Christianize the holy teachings of Sanatana dharma.
Another one from Harvard Prof Diana L. Eck again a practicing Christian trying to comment on Sanatana Dharma. Unless they are a Hindu, these type of academics won’t understand the Sanatana dharma principles. Just like in Bhagavad Gita, Krishna says, when someone doesn’t follow Shruti and Smriti, they only cause disturbance in society. Why should hindus allow Christian pastors to comment on Hindu scriptures? They try to compare everything from a Christian perspective which distorts the impartiality and true meanings of Vedic scriptures. None of these professors are ever challenged which allows them to whimsically present their viewpoints and unfortunately those biased viewpoints make their way to Indian universities.
They have an ecosystem that sustains them and brings credibility to them that emboldens them to denigrate Vedic scriptures with impunity.
If you look at the faculty of Stanford Hindu studies department, they don’t have a single Hindu faculty which follows a Hindu tradition. Another lie that they peddle is that the word Hindu is from the 1900s. Just 535 years ago Chaitanya Mahaprabhu also used the word Hindu which has been prevalent earlier.
In the end, I would like to conclude that all religions are not equal.
However, Sanatana Dharma which is based on the Vedic scriptures is the most mature and complete because it is a science and Hindus should be proud of their heritage. It’s time to reject western Christian interpretations on timeless teachings of Vedas by western academics because they have an ulterior objective.
