Sir,
This controversy and replies to me reflect only one thing.People are more interested in discussing only matters which ordinary and uneducated
could not understand with all quotes and explanation.where as there are more practical problems from the point of view of many downtrodden people irrespective caste, creed and religion.These may not be solved wholly or overnight but could be discussed and communicated between various members to try and do something about it.eg.many BPL families are finding it toget even one full meal per day,many of their children still finding it difficult to get even a basic education etc..So is it necessary to discuss topics like above one ,instead of trying to understand them if so interested with proper or some basics about our Hindu Dharma?

Yes Sir, There are practical problems...Every one has them.
Irrespective of Poor or Rich. Even for Modi as well as for a street Peddler...Me and You...The size and intensity varies...
Give a situation you are in we don't need Hindu Dharma. Let's take Tamil Cinema that every one understands and அதிவீர ராம பாண்டியன்'s A Smal Pandiya king from Deep South Tamilnadu's வெற்றி வேற்கை
1) Did you lose morale? Trust, Belief, etc. Not with just spoken words.
I mean, Did you "really" believe? How will the மரத்த வெச்சவன் know without inspecting your dark side?
Whether you while away time in useless chat, porn or lie drunk? Lie and cheat effortlessly etc...
If Children are sleeping empty stomach what were the parents doing? They were the ones who gave rise to the kids . Isn't it their responsibility to bring them up?
மரத்த வெச்சவன்
தண்ணி ஊத்துவான்
மனசப் பார்த்து தான்
வாழ்வ மாத்துவான்
ஏ மனமே லங்காதே
வீணாக வருந்தாதே
பாரங்கள் எல்லாமே
படைத்தவன் எவனோ
அவனே சுமப்பான்...
2) Do not Associate Downtrodden with being Good
வெற்றி வேற்கை - 15
வறிஞர்க்கு அழகு வறுமையில் செம்மை
விளக்கம்
வறுமையில் இருப்பவரின் அழகானாது, அந்த நிலைமையிலும் ஒழுக்கமாக வாழ்வதில் வெளிப்படும்
If you are getting one rupee per day. Are you saving 50 paise? , Doing Dharma of 5 paise? etc.
Did you try to be good at-least?
I have bathed with 2 mugs of water for 5 days, studied without electricity, cleaned shits, walked miles just to get a stupid signature, Traveled on top of buses and trains, walked in "Sakkadai" in waters...as well helped a known poor teacher of mine carry and set up book shops in a Platform. I have seen him teach me as well as spend hours talking about politics without concentrating on Selling books. Yes, Learnt good things and noted the bad things to avoid. I have seen his son lose hope and try to commit suicide even though he was an Auto driver earning more than him. I have seen reckless actions of a poor kid leading to his death as well. I have seen Educated people die in beaches. I have bathed buffalos, Spent time on my Grandfather's Paddy fields, I have seen a fellow passenger dying in front of me in Pallavan bus. I have also seen Street peddlers bilking people with helpless Snakes. Not many were middle class when we grew-up..we had Ration rice as well with worms. Watered Pazhaya Soru as well. I have also seen my classmate give up his Medical seat to join an Ashram. I have seen my friend go mad. And I have been a Friend to a mad person. Oh, Yes I have seen the poor, the middle and the Rich, the needy, the greedy..., the pious, the atheist, the diseased. I have seen the most philosophical man I ever met - a telugu old laborer- 4000 ft below ground! Please read Verses of Vemana in Telugu....Which is an awesome introduction to Truth.
And I Have been fortunate to see More...Which many would not have...
I have seen real Yogis walking naked for days.. Believing in Him. They have nothing. What do you mean food? They walk naked for days without food... They Believe. Where is your belief - at least to think that Things will improve?
With All this experience the Discussion such as above I think is SUPER IMPORTANT for you to realize something more. Something beyond the "assumed-to-be" pitiful human lives. Lucky you are not Blind, or Deaf. Lucky you are not born a cockroach. Are you thankful? IS your problem today right now more than that of a rat beneath your house - constantly fearful? Can't even speak, can come out only at night, eat whatever crap you throw at it?
IS your problem or the Rat's problem today worse than an earthworm? Which can't even move? come out only when it rains.
ARE you thankful today? How many times were you thankful in your entire lives? How many times? Think...
ARE you thankful for the Sun that shines, for the Earth that Spins, For the Water you drink? IS there an acknowledgement? Acknowledgement that they exist for EVERYONE? The Poor, the Needy, The Rat AND the Earthworm! We are humans the most advanced species - for a reason. For you to use ALL your faculty. I mean Use your body and Mind, Intelligence, Compassion, Heart and Desire. An earthworm would be thankful for being a Rat - not human- just a rat. Know from where you had evolved. If you think of that , realize that at-least once, your destiny will change. Do you know the Countless entities that gave-up their freedom for Life to Evolve? These are the questions that EVERY Sentient entity ideally needs to think about. Sama Veda Talks about that. Are you thanking your body for correctly producing the enzymes on time? Digest our food? Why did you assume they happen without Sentience? Do they ask your permission? They make you survive. Our biology gives us that Great ability to reason about these. Talk about these. So you Should NOT STOP such Conversations. These are much more fundamental.
You can't just talk about Problems. Every one knows about them. Where is YOUR solution proposal? What did YOU bring to the Table? And Yes, I mean, Personally YOU. You can ask me of the same thing. What did I do? And I'm happy to share something. Yes, you said Education. We have adopted a Village in India for Educating all the children there. I have a Trust worthy friend who grew up with charity money like that to whom I give whatever I can. Can you trust Any Charity anymore?
Over the years, I realized the super extreme importance of Silent and anonymous Humility filled ACTION than meaningless conversations...Which as you know Tambrahms are infamous for - the infamous "Mylapore Mama"
You CANNOT cheat your own in-riding Self. And Karma Phalam appropriately Solidifies in Truth.
Yes, I wish I help ALL the poor. But did the poor help the Rat or the Earthworm?
Thanks for letting me say things that I wanted to say...I should be thankful to you too
