My dear, dear madam
Many thanks again for your brilliant exposition.
"The Plaque of the mind is the hardest to remove" Wow!
Shall look it up immediately in "The Compendium of Gynaecological Pathology", companion volume to the 1184-page "The Encyclopedia of Medicine", published by Random House, New York, USA, Medical Editor Charles B. Clayman, MD. Have placed an order, and expect quick and painless delivery.
For painless delivery we can go Epidural.
The Plaque that has started like a nidus.. conceals the mind from the Truth.
The mind enclosed like a pining Anarkali in the concrete tomb built around .... the mind yearns for the Truth yet delusion shields it..suffocating it..a meaningless existence.
Shall also seek out the lair of the compassionate and indulgent Almighty Bhagavathi Mandukesvari to lay down my arms in front of her. Only problem is: The மண்டு does not appear to exist. Except, perhaps in mandu-land. The Mandukya Upanishad of Atharvana-Vedam certainly makes no mention of her. Maybe, she has only one passionate devotee in this Bhoo-lokam?
Or, could She be just the figment of a female imagination?
Mandukeshwari is real...She exists...you have not surrendered ..hence she seems to not exist.
What is not a fiction of imagination?
Isnt entire existence itself an imagination of the Almighty?
Are we not just a dream of a Higher Being?
So what is real and what is not?
Mandukeshwari.
"So it suprises me when Hindus even find fault with actions of Krishna Paramatma in Mahabharat. "
No need to be surprised, madam. KUTTRAM KUTTRAME.
Ambaa, Ambika, and Ambaalika were all biologically women. Ambaa deliberately killing unarmed Bheeshma Pithaamaha on the Kurukshethra battlefield (from which she should have been barred) was a kuttram totally unforgivable.
Our eternal laws of dharma do not exclude criminal (paapam) liabilities of even mortal godmen such as Krishna. That is why Krishna's entire tribe of Vrishnees were wiped out. Sathyam eva jayathe. Even when mortal godmen proclaim the opposite.
Kallai Mattum Kandal Kadavul Theriyathu,
Kadavul Mattum Kandal Kalladi Theriyathu..
"It suprises me when Hindus seem to become more Abrahamic these days."
Hindus do not "become more Abrahamic these days". They never ever were even the least Abrahamic (in truth Semitic). Collectively, today there are more adherers to Semitic creeds in this world than there are dissonant and disputing Hindus. These Hindus perhaps were lucky to have studied in Christian missionary schools, had noted the clash of creeds, and tried to trace the roots of these creeds instead of clapping hands to ears. What did they find?
Islam and Christianity trace their roots to Judaism. Mother creed Judaism traces ITS roots to Hindism, the Atharvana Veda. When leaving the Indus Valley and travelling westwards the Hindu pioneer-pilgrims (the true original Pilgrim Fathers) brought vegetarianism with therm. The Jews to this day have a "kosher kitchen" in which a separate set of cooking pots and utensils are reserved exclusiverly for vegetarian cooking.
Muslims performing the compulsory ritual Haj pilgrimmage to Mecca solemnly circumambulate the "Black Stone" embedded in the eastern wall of the Kaaba. This is the Shiva-Lingam installed by Hindus millenia ago near the Ganga-Spring-Well (today renamed Zam-zam -- a corruption of "gan-ga") nearfby, from which theertham for daiuly abhishegam was taken by the Hindu priests. Muslims wear only two unsewn pieces of white cotton cloth while on Mecca pilgrimmage. Comparable to veshti and anga-vasthram of Hindus. They walk barefooted, as Hindus do in sacred places. They even leave their slippers and other footwear outside their homnes and mosques. Another Hindu custom.
Try saying this in Saudi Arabia and let me know the outcome!LOL
And so the list goes on.
Immersioin in flowing river-water is a rite by which a young boy enters Judaism. Our Gangaa-snaanam. Even Jesus Christ was so "baptised" by Prophet John the Baptist. Today, no child is a Christian until baptised with holy water (representing Gangaa-theertham).
Amen! No Christian Al-Qaeda...so you escaped!LOL
"Btw I am surprised you are having some form of perception....you mentioned that For your information these doctors were not trained in India."
Why does the truth hurt?
Why should it hurt?
Satyam Eva Jayate Hain Na?
Sathyam Is Sweet.
They did not argue, as one distinguished lady doctor I came across in India did, that no bonafide doctor would call LGBT a treatable "pathology".
They went right ahead and cured some who were referred to them in time. Kudos to them for this pioneering work. Which still continues in that institution where they work. No sour grapes, please, dear.
Voh lady doctor kaun hain?
Main Msia Mein Rehti Hoon.
All this is beside the point.
The point is: How many Tamil-Brahmins today will accept LGBT husbands, wives, sons-in-law, daughters-in-law?
Arey yaar...Homosexual males wont marry a female...Lesbians wont marry a male..Bisexual might marry either a male or a female.
Transgender seldom marry..So koi problem nahin hain...No Inlaw problems too.
BTW there was one Iyer male who is gay and his mother posted a matrimonial for a partner for her son and a TB priest son responded to the add ...it was all over the internet.
Let anyone be happy TB LGBT or Non TB LGBT.
Pyar Deewana Hota Hain..Mastana Hota Hain...
Your considered response, madam?
I advice you to fall in love again...it might change your perception of life.
Thanks and regards.
