To S-2: You Yanks need to stop giving money to the Paks ... their economy will collapse within days the moment external aid is cut-off. Get your supplies through Central Asia. Let the Paks stew in their own juice. The question for the US government is why they are keeping the Paks afloat...

^^^ RIP to a brave soul. His sacrifice will be eternally remembered and honored by his grateful 1.1 billion brothers and sisters.

You did not answer the questions .... if the intention at Khajurao had been to promote sensual thoughts, then why are not those images on the inside. Also, why don't we see those images in many more temples. Supreme lover means something other than having sex ... it is unconditional...

Nudity is not "celebrated" in Sanatan Dharma!! In fact, in Sanatan Dharma, you want to transcend the physical body. You do need to take care of your body, so that you can concentrate on attaining Self-realization. But "celebrating" the physical body would be Avidya, ignorance. You should not...

The vast majority of the temples have no sensual imagery at all, and in the exception that we know of, the murals are only outside, not inside. If the intention had been to encourage sensual thoughts, the murals would have been inside!! Why not? There is a lot of symbolism in Indian epics, many...

There were two sentences, one of which was speculative and contained the words "most likely". The second sentence, about the justified hatred of the Afghans, was just an observation, no theory.

Sorry if anybody is offended. Some parts of my responses were directed only at the posters I was replying to.

Your allegations of Indian involvement in terrorism have not convinced anybody other than yourself. But it is good that you are not denying responsibility. I was only pointing out that you will pay a price in terms of the justified hatred of the Afghans (leaving aside how India may or may not...

Sanatan Dharma permits symbolism, it is not necessarily promoted. But then symbolism is inherent in human nature. For example, suppose somebody spits on a Koran. Muslims may get say so enraged that they will murder the fellow on the spot. Why? Think about it. It is because the Koran symbolizes...

The stealing of clothes incidents are not sexual in nature. As per the stories, Krishna was supposedly quite young at that time. This is not something that is revered. The images depicted are not deities, and they are only on the exterior of the temple. The idea is that the subconscious sexual...

The point is that Raja Ravi Verma did not paint them in the nude - he had a much better understanding of India's ancient traditions, which do not, by the way, include nude painting of goddesses. Hussain's paintings were vulgar, and had nothing to do with Indian traditions. I nevertheless...
