Preface The Preface which was given by the Author "David Frawley" regarding this "Arjuna". [ More... ] Arise Arjuna The world, perhaps as usual, is in a state of crisis. And in this extremity no nation has yet arisen as a defender of the Truth. [ More... ] Hinduism In Crisis The recent movement has an opposite intent-to embrace Western materialist culture and abandon traditional Hindu culture and spirituality perhaps altogether. [ More... ] Misrepresentations of Hinduism in the Press Hindus have a history of tolerance and respect for all religions, which is almost unparalleled in the rest of the world. [ More... ] Hindu Fundamentalism : What Is It ? Fundamentalism is an easily discernible phenomenon in belief-oriented religions like Christianity and Islam which have a simple and exclusive pattern to their faith. [ More... ] Leftist Scholarship in India We have learned that the real truth has been that Marxism was the opiate of the intellectuals, as it has been called, not that religion itself is an illusion. [ More... ] India and the Concept of Nation-State India has been criticized for not succeeding in becoming a unified and disciplined modern nation-state like Japan and Germany. [ More... ] Religious Persecution in Pakistan The Ahmadiya mosque had been functioning for over fifty years. There was no dispute that the place belonged to the Ahmadiya. [ More... ] Taking Offense At One's Religion Being Criticized Not surprisingly she has fled the country, which obviously does not appear to be a safe place for her, or anyone who might question the majority religion of the land. [ More... ] Vedanta, Unity and Universality, The Unity of Truth The sense of an underlying order, harmony or law behind existence is the basis of all systems of knowledge. [ More... ] Practical Vedanta, the Real Message of Swami Vivekananda Those in India are inclined to see Vivekananda's centenary as an anniversary of the revival of Hinduism in the modern world. [ More... ] The Unity of Religion And Unity of Truth An attitude of tolerance, a kind of ecumenical spirit has gained favor with a number of groups today, particularly in India. [ More... ] The Unity of Religion And Religious Tolerance Those today who like to proclaim that all religions are one, seldom define what all religions have in common. [ More... ] Swami Rama Tirtha on Islam Though his teachings are on par with Vivekananda-indeed often more poetic and inspiring since he formed no organization they are not as well known. [ More... ] A Comment on Ram Swarup's Hindu View of Christianity and Islam There are many books available in the world today that provide critiques of different religions from both religious and non-religious standpoint. [ More... ] Yogic Spirituality And Islam A number of those who proclaim that all religions are one like to carry this principle further and make the founders of all religions into Divine incarnations (avatars). [ More... ] India And Hinduism in The Mahabharata These ideas are often used to discredit India as a real country or Hinduism as a valid religion. [ More... ] The Aryan Invasion of India Questioned in the Western Textbooks They destroyed the more advanced Dravidian civilization of the subcontinent, which is evidenced by the ruins of the Harappan or Indus civilization. [ More... ] The Aryan-Dravidian Divide The darker-skinned Dravidians-and that the Dravidians were the original inhabitants of India whom the invading Aryans conquered and dominated. [ More... ] The Unity of The Vedic And Shaivite Religions Shaivism has been regarded by many, particularly Western scholars, as Dravidian; that is, as an ethnic religion of South Indians. [ More... ] The Ancestry Of Ravana Ravan was related to Lavana, also regarded as a Rakshasa, of Madhupura (Mathura) in the region of the Surasenas, who was conquered by Rama's brother Shatrughana. [ More... ] East and West, Where is the Boundary ? One of the most common divisions in culture is that of humanity into East and West. While this can be a convenient way to designate different types of cultures. [ More... ] The Value of Hindu Culture for the World To find truth, all the great sages have told us that one must go beyond all outer divisions of race, creed, caste, nationality or culture. [ More... ] An American Discovers the Vedas In the modern world everyone, including Hindus, appears to be trying to adopt Western culture with its scientific and technological advances and economic affluence.
