Guest guest Posted December 21, 2004 Report Share Posted December 21, 2004 "So often has this notion been thoughtlessly repeated by so many - from the common Hindu parent to the latest swamiji arriving on American shores yearning for a popular following - that it has now become artificially transformed into a supposed foundation stone of modern Hindu teachings." Dr Morales Where Srila Prabhupada said only once that all religions lead to the same goal? The one who is actually making a hodge podge of religions in India is this mere Doctor Morales. Sanatan dharma is not "hinduism", a label emanating from dark sources and buy back by academies. In Bhagavad Gita Sri Krsna said: sarva dharman parityajya ... Krsna said to give up all kind of religion, leading to so many different conception of truth :Brahmeti , paramatmeti , bhagavan it sabdyate. This is what "our swamiji" is teaching to the people with no distinction of races, creeds or social statut, Doctor. So, very few quotes to declare that your paper has no value particularly when it attacks the most valuable preacher of the "two ultimate centuries" . Your knowledge is an exemple of mayaya parita jnana. There is nothing more to speak about this paper because this "in-depth philosophical approach" is completely false or aproximativ. What a strange statement after so many readings and studies of yours!! Better to read Bhagavad Gita to clear all misconception about religions. But envious people cannot receive teaching from the pure acharya and this is why you get confused. And what is the purpose of World-vedic to allow any mundane so-called scholars in safron disguise offending publically Srila Prabhupada? Whose side are you on? Please , answer or erase me.

This issue has become the most paralyzing and crucial philosophical issue that Hinduism has faced in the last 200 years. The on-line version of the paper is located here: http://www.dharmacentral.com/universalism.htm The paper takes an in-depth philosophical approach to the issue, delving into the historical origins of the idea, as well as the immediate impact that it has had on Hinduism for the last two centuries. While the paper is certainly meant to be read by each and every concerned Hindu, it has been especially created with Hindu leaders, Hindu intellectuals and Hindu activists as its main audience. The hope is that this paper will quickly become the definitive statement on this important issue. If you find the paper helpful and informative, I would ask that you please assist me in distributing it to as large and wide an audience as possible. Please forward this information to any friends, lists or discussion groups that would find it interesting. If you have a web site, please consider placing the paper on your site, or providing a link. In addition to the web format version, please feel free to contact me if you would like a Word version of the paper.

If you read the thesis in its entirety, you will notice the following lines: 12.0pt"> 12.0pt">Among the many Hindu leaders in recent decades who have openly repudiated Radical Universalism and neo-Hinduism can be included Swami Chinmayananda, Pujya Swami Dayananda Sarasvati, Shivaya Subramuniya Swami, Srila Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Sri Vamadeva Shastri, Sri Chinna Jeeyar Swami, Sri Rangapriya Swami, among many others. We need to help facilitate the work of bold">such truly genuine Dharma leaders if we wish to witness the renewal of authentic Hinduism. 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy"> 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy">Also, Dr. Morales did not send his paper to this group – I don’t even know if he is a member of this group. I sent it here because I believe what he is saying is not only entirely correct; but also much needed. There are many well-meaning people (especially parents) that promote Radical Universalism and this has lead to the weakening of the roots of our children growing up in India and abroad. 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy"> 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy">Sincerely, 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy"> Krishna color:navy"> 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy"> font-family:Tahoma;font-weight:bold">YVES FRANCES [yves.frances (AT) cegetel (DOT) net] Tuesday, December 21, 2004 1:19 AM vediculture Re: [world-vedic] FW: Radical Universalism 12.0pt"> 12.0pt">"So often has this notion been thoughtlessly repeated by so many - from the common Hindu parent to the latest swamiji arriving on American shores yearning for a popular following - that it has now become artificially transformed into a supposed foundation stone of modern Hindu teachings." 12.0pt"> 12.0pt">Dr Morales 12.0pt"> 12.0pt">Where Srila Prabhupada said only once that all religions lead to the same goal?
