Guest guest Posted February 29, 1996 Report Share Posted February 29, 1996 Dear Vaishnavites, I had a discussion with some of my colleagues about prophetic (vs) non-prophetic religions. The argument of one of my colleagues was that Hinduism is a non-prophetic religion and hence it has basically guidelines but no rigorous rules like say Islam, Judaism or Christianity. He goes on to say that hence there are various levels of Hinduism - wherein you have different degrees of beliefs/non-beliefs in the various guidelines as set in the scriptures. My question is what is the standpoint of Vaishnavism? Does it enforce certain things or are they guidelines per se? Can anyone shed more light on this? I apologize for the vagueness/generality(!) in my question? Thanks, Srinivasan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
