Proud to be Hindu - Agniveer

Reason 6: Hinduism – Research friendly, reform friendly









That is why saints like Kabir, Nanak and Dayanand Saraswati are held in such high esteem by Hindu society even though they critically challenged the prevailing social norms of their times.

That is why, Hinduism is not a religion in first place. It is simply an enlightened way of life.

So if you are a scientist, social reformer, researcher, inventor or discoverer, you are a Hindu. It does not matter what your theological or religious beliefs are.

A Newton is a Hindu, Einstein is a Hindu, APJ Abdul Kalam is a Hindu, Steve Jobs is a Hindu, every sensible person is a Hindu. More the sensibility, more the Hinduism within him.

Reason 7: Hinduism – Journey of personal discovery





Reason 8: Hinduism – synonym of practical tolerance







Reason 9: Essence over Symbols, Rituals and Words

When one thinks of religion, the first thing that comes in mind is a specific set of rituals and practices specific to the followers of that religion. For example, Muslims have a specific language for Namaz and Azaan, or would keep beard in specific manner, or would have a specific variety of cap and clothing and so on. A Christian would wear a cross around his neck, or get baptized in a particular format. In case of Hinduism as well, there are several rituals. In fact there are many more rituals, symbols and words in Hinduism than any other religion. That is what gives India its vibrant colors, its rich cultural heritage and makes it the most lively and diverse country in the world.

But there is a big difference. In Hinduism, no symbol, ritual or word is static in time or place. These change with time and place. So a Tamil, Bengali, Punjabi, Gujarati or Bihari Hindu would have different prayers, different religious symbols, different ways of worship. In some other religion this may amount to blasphemy and call for strict punishments. But in Hinduism this is not merely accepted but encouraged. Because they would all point to same essence of seeing Supreme within all and all within Supreme. Since He has infinite qualities, the ways to explore, celebrate or remember Him must also be infinite.

This is what makes India so dynamic. This is what brings unity in diversity. This is exactly the reason why India is so culturally rich. Our rituals, symbols and prayers change from place to place and time to time and yet we direct them to One. This is what makes Hinduism so fresh, so evolving, so purposeful, so practical.

In fact the name Hindu itself is time-bound. The word does not exist in Vedas, Ramayan, Mahabharat, Upanishads or any other scripture. It is a word of recent origin. However, the essence is same – to adopt the roots of enlightened living. Since Hinduism is the oldest and natural religion of every human being, there was never a reason to have a special word for the religion. Manushya Dharma or Maanav Dharma (Humanity) is the more accurate term for Hinduism. Or Arya (noble person) is a good term. For ages these terms sufficed followers of natural human religion. It was only after people started following a specific book or God or prophet that they found the need to discover new terms to identity their cults. And then the culture of giving names to religions erupted. So Hindu became a term to differentiate from anyone who considers disbelief in a particular book as a sin.

But irrespective of that, and regardless of whether we call ourselves Hindu or Arya or Humans or Rational Humans, we still focus on essence over symbols. Love of mother is same regardless of whether you call Amma, or Mummy, or Maa. There is no sin in choosing a different name for mother or mother religion or mother philosophy. Fools fight over symbols. Hindus love for essence.

Reason 10: Nothing beats the Vedas – the foundation of Hinduism









Yes, I am proud to be Hindu. And I do wish that entire humanity embraces its root and become proud to be Hindu.

  • Hindu religion devided into four community….but again I m saying to all stupid people who living in india..caste and community only created by mentally sick people and who follow them they have something problem in their mind..four community name are Brahmin,kshatriya,vaishya,shurda…and its surprising we all India dnt know the exactly meaning of these four words..let me explain to you..brahmin means not that who born in high class..koi janam se uncha or nicha nhi hota hai.brahmin mean jo god ko janta hai usko apne samne dekha ho jisse brahma ka pata ho or apne acche karam se jana jaye na ki apni jaat se..agr Brahmin hone pr insaan ke karam gandhe hai toh who insaan ashudh mana jata hai who pavitr aatma nhi hoti hai…Kshatriya ka matlb hota hai weh yodha jo mantvta ki raksha hetu apne angg angg ko katva de..samks praniyon ki raksha ke liye apni jaan kurbaan kr de or apne karam pr ghamand na dikhaye..Vaishya who hote hai jo apne kaam mein emaan dikhaye koi chori chakari na kre..apne kaam ko galat tareeqe se na kre..emaan ki kamai ko khaye haraam ki kamai ko haath na lagaye..Shudra ka matlb hota hai shudh or pavitr aatma….jis bande ke ander koi moh, maya, krodh or ahnkaar tak nhi hai jiska aacharn shudh ho or karam shudh ho wohi sacha shudra apne karam par purn vishwaas rake…jiske karam ache nhi man mein ahnkaar hai who shudra nhi mana ja sakta hai..agr tum log shudra ko pero ka sathaan dete ko toh or unhe neecha mante ho toh kanjke pujna bandh kr do unke peron (feet) ko dohna unki puja krna bandh kr do..kisi devi devta ke mandir ja kr natmastak na ho or apne mata pita ke peron ko choo ke ashiwadh lena bandh kr do..

    • Hey cuties, so you agree India being 80% of hindus the are not following sanatan dharm and is corrupt and should not be followed…just imagine we will not like to but anything which adultered and corrupted then how you hindus want to follow sanatan dharam which 80 percent of them do not follow…Islam is the only religion which is practiced by majority of people and Quran is the book read everyday and memeroised by millons of people.. There are around 1.9 billion of muslims and 90-95% of them follow and try to pracrice…You will come up with idiodtic arguement of terrorsist…so how many of them are ther in the world less than 1 lakh which is 0.000001 percent of muslim population in the world..

  • Many a time, man has taken birth in high caste and low caste; but this does not make him great or lowHaving been born in high caste man thinks himself to be great and being born in low caste thinks himself to be low and pitiable; both of these states of mind are wrong because many times man has been born in high and low castes. Hence, one should not be proud of having been born in high caste and not feel low if born in low caste family.
    Then, what is the importance of high or low caste?

  • Hindu (body) four community: brahmin (head) kshatriya (arm) vaishya (belly) shudra (feet) All these four community called as hindu. We all are parts of one body. Without each part our body is not complete. If we lost one part of our body then we become handicap. The human body is the entire structure of a human being. Human Body is considered so loving that God even wants to have it. Spiritual Yogis have found that after going through the 84 millions species this souls get the most dignified human body. So it is the last step to explore the God or to get the view of almighty father god. We know that the soul never dies it takes birth again and again just like as we take new clothes to wear the soul as it takes new body and it is an infinite process. But the body what we get in next birth depend on our karma that thas been cited in Gita by Lord Krishna to Arjuna. We all here to perform our duties. Our action makes our destiny and nothing else. The result is in the hand of supreme power. Karma is the seed of plant and if the seed is genuine it must be fruitful.

  • Gone are the days when marriages were executed by parents; The times when a Punjabi marrying a Punjabi or a Bengali marrying a Bengali was the norm. Welcome to 2013 where inter-caste marriages are quickly becoming the season’s flavour and why shouldn’t they? Everyone knows that India is a diverse land that boasts of being a mother to different cultures. But what’s the point of having so many different cultures when people snarl at the very thought of their integration?
    There is something new to learn in different cultures and we, as Indians should feel proud of having such a strong and traditional backbone with us.
    But when some of these people get offended at the thought of their son/daughter marrying into a different caste, a sense of anger sweeps me.
    What is the problem in a South Indian marrying a Punjabi or vice-versa? Why do educated people talk like uneducated pigs when their family member steps out of his/her caste for marriage? Why do people have to be such haters?
    In my opinion, an inter caste marriage should be applauded by one and all as the amalgamation of different cultures will put an end to mindless racism and discrimination on the basis of caste in our exotic land. Wouldn’t you want your next generation to be more peace loving and more socially acceptable to different kinds of people in the world? So, are you ready to take the plunge and applaud inter-caste marriages?

  • Inter caste marriage should be encourage..bcoz if people take this step then castesim and religion based discrimination should be stop itself..we all are human being..God never created any caste and religion..even God dnt has any caste and religion…did you know that God belong to which caste and religion..then keep shut your mouth about this stupid varan system and caste system okh.. And only you can make it good or bad this inter caste marriage. Depends upon how much importance u give to these meaningless and stupid values. And how much importance u give to other people who value these meaningless things. U have to see how much u urself r attached to other people opinions. And since u r asking for opinion, it means u r attached to these meaningless things.

  • All stupid people living in India that’s why this country cant be develop anymore as the other countries are well developed. Bcoz indian people live in caste-ism and egoist by nature especially who belong to upper class which is created by themselves not created by God.God only created human being..He didnt put any human in high and low category..This cheap things only created by some bastard itself who live in India..and they be proud by called themselves hindu..I am also hindu but i wanna spit on that every person who proudly said they are hindu but their thinking is so narrow its depend on human what they want to become Devil or Angel..Nobody is lower and higher by caste or religion..they become high and low by their behavior..Reservation should be stop itself when you all leave this stupid casteism..Say no caste and no community..All are hindu who live in hindustaan understood idiot people..

  • Whenever someone’s ask you about your caste then your answer should be to them is:
    I am a Brahmin in knowledge
    I am kshatriya in valor
    I am vaishya in business
    I m shudra in service
    In the end I am just sanatam dharmi hindu and nothing else..Then say you proud to be a hindu..

  • Hinduism in Africa. Black converts to puranic Hinduism:

    Although I don’t follow puranic Hinduism, I found this video interesting because it shows that people in Africa and all over the world are interested in Hinduism. And we as Vedic people have not done a very good job in presenting non-idol worship, Dharmic, Yogic practices of Hinduism to people around the world who might be interested in converting. It is our duty and job to present this information to everyone.

    • Hi Krishna Rao,
      Your intention is good. If u want to present dharmic, yogic practices, people welcome you. But, as and when you start presenting knowledge about non-idol worship/worship of one God, people (So called Hindus) will kick you out of this country/world. Thats what happend with Moolshankar/dayanand when he started debating with idol worshippers in India.

  • @Gyan surya

    Thanks for your kind words..

    Personally I believe in these humanistic philosophies. We must spread these humanistic philosophies to every nook and corner of the world. But our main draw backs are our Indian people and Education system. Our Indians don’t know our richness of philosophy. we people hate our country, ancestors & system and we got divided on the basis of “caste ” and ” religions.”First of all, we must teach these philosophies to our Indian people regardless of religion. We must remove these ” caste ” barriers which is not there in our society but people with their vested interests have done these evils. And, our education system is totally irrational. we must make changes in our education system.

    May we all become one (be it Hindu/Muslim/Christian/Sikh, etc) and expel such inhumane ideologies.
    Lets make the world noble. ” Satyameva Jayate “. Jai Hind.


  • Very true and only Hinduism can heal the whole world with love and compassion..!!

    I am born Muslim. I don’t see any wrong in other forms of worship. ” Approaching path might be different but it is leading to the one and same Goal(God) “. Intent matters not the way which we worship. Personally, I admire Ram Ji and Krishna Ji.

    Through Swami Vivekananda, I got to know the basics of Sanskrit Philosophy. But, through Agniveer site I got to know the whole of Sanskrit philosophy. Just basics of our Sanskrit philosophy is enough to save the world from all evils ideologies.

    Sanskrit philosophy says nothing about Hindu/Muslim/Christian/Sikh/Buddhist,etc. On contrary, it says
    1)” Be Human ”
    2)” Vasudhaiva kutumbakam ” (whole world is one family)
    33″ Sarve janah sukhino bhavantu ” (may all the live happily)
    4)” Ekam Sat viprah Bahuda vadanti ” (Truth is one, wise people describe it variously. Ishwar/Allah/God)
    5) “Being truthful in actions, words and thoughts is the true worship to Almighty. ”
    6)” One who sees self in all beings and all beings in self cannot hate any one .”
    7)” Every True path is leading to the one and same Almighty (Ishwar/Allah/God) .”

    These are just basics of Sanskrit philosophy in a Humanistic manner. These basics can heal the world and must be spread in nook and corner of the world. First of all Indians must realize it because majority of the people don’t know about our Humanistic philosophy.

    Lastly, Agniveer ji ” Every Muslim is not a terrorist/Inhuman. But because of some fanatics innocents are becoming victims. Please work for them, surely they will support for this noble cause like me. ”

    Lets make the world noble by becoming one and expelling the inhumane ideologies. Live humanly and die humanly. ” Satyameva jayate “.. Jai Hind.

    Thankyou Agniveer ji..

      • Bro Sanatan Dharma, thanks a lot for your love. We are very much here! Agniveer is our inspiration and we will always be with it.

        As for incest, it is recipe to complete destruction of physical, mental, spiritual, and social health. Only perverts and psychopaths would advocate it.

  • all religions are equal but the path followed by some religious people is not good cause GOd came in every religion wheather it is sikh hindu muslim or christian but the only truth about salvation is that it can only be achieve by meditation meditation n meditation and that of only true naam and that naam is given by a guru which is present on earth and He comes every time on earth now try to find him and get naam from him n do meditation

  • Yes, Hinduism is synonymous with truth and reality. Hinduism in its purest form does not require rituals, customs and ceremonies. This is what I have been preaching also. Please log on to my blog In reviving Hinduism or the Sanatanadharma, we will bring peace to this world once again. Sanatanadharma is yet to be fully understood even by the Hindus. The cardinal principals of Ahimsa(non-violence and vegetarianism) and re-birth( coming to this world once again to suffer) are the basic, when understood, we will abhor all forms of evil and greed

    • Thats great Ershad brother…….. Vedic religion is religion of real freedom….. veda says..discuss, debate ..go deep and seek the truth…… but other religions say whatever is mentioned in their rulebook..has to followed strictly…..
