Guest guest Posted November 2, 2002 Report Share Posted November 2, 2002 It is very unfortunate that just as we misperceive the West in many ways simple ways, the West also can (some times) fall into the same trap. Marrying four women in Islam, and caste matters regarding Hinduism, are two major areas where people acquire the wrong flavour. As mentioned, being a Muslim myself, I have only a working knowledge of Hinduism, but I know enough of it to be able to defend it regarding the injustices of the caste system. Not only I admit my paucity of knowledge of the Hindu tradition, but it is such a vast fabric and kaleidoscope of colour that even Shankar Achariya would feel daunted in claiming comprehensive grasp of it. Infact, being such a mosaic makes it one of the most tolerant traditions in the world. Let IndiaWin/JaiHind Momtaaz Jung Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
