Why do you think that we here are so stupid to be unawere of differnt calendars in this world and different aplications from the side of particular religions? So you have to tell to us "frogs" what is to be found there in the big world. That's what I would call a limited perspective, indeed. I have respondend on that fanatical vision of Bashu Gosh's lumping devotees into followers of Christianity for their using the "western" calendar and not Vedic one. I am convinced that everybnody here is using it, you also and the same Bashu Gosh as well. Srila Prabhupada did also. To go on the case of devotees using the Christian calendar is off the mind. And to think they are uneducated about existence of other systems, it also makes little sense. > > For example here in Malaysia now, half the population is observing the > dawn-to-dusk Ramadhan fasting month based on the Islamic calendar. Oh, really? Not possible. Never heard. Tell us more, us poor little "frogs" Yet you people in the Malesia are using Christian calendar as well, don't you? The dates of ariplanis departure are not set up according to Islamic calendar. India also. All official institutions are run according to Christian calendar. Otherwise it would be a madness, so many religion are there in India and in the world. Why are you making the problem and issue where there isn't any? Is it simply to get some oportunity to feel oneself as a big shark in the ocean, as oposed to frogs in a well? - Mahanidhi das Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
