the fundamental difference --- islam and sanatan dharma
"experience it for yourself" says the upanishads.
"the word of the book" is the last and final says the quran
the beauty of sanatan dharma is beautifully illustrated by swami vivekanands
"by the vedas, no books are meant. veda indicates the inherent principles of the universe. Just as the law of gravitation existed thousands of years before newton and shall continue to exist even if the whole of humanity denied it, in the same way VEDA stands for only one thing ETERNAL TRUTH
underline it, asterix it, highlight and write it into your hearts ..."ETERNAL TRUTH"
sanatan dharma or hindu dharma is eternal truth, even if thousands of prophet mohammeds or mohammed ghaznis came and invade us or plunder everything and ransack us, they will never be able even harm a shadow of civilization
this civilization is not based on a book or a prophet and is not a collection of does and donts. we are not providing user manuals to create terrorists. despite all the shortcomings that may have creeped into this mother of all religions, despite the quarrels that existed among the sons of this religion,..... we never spilled the blood of people belonging to other religons and of this fact we must take pride
but we have not realized that strength is essential for survival. we have tolerated enough. now the devil has come in the garb of an islamic propagamdist dr zakir naik
here is a sample of things to come
the islamic research foundation has the aim of converting everyone to islam. the truth is that religions that sprouted in between and
cults that arouse in response to the need of those times, they will be subdued with the same intensity with which they cropped up.
now in order to cover up this insecurity, and copying swami vivekananda's idea, Dr zakir naik makes a bold assertion that islam existed thousands of years before mohammed and that islam existed since the time of creation and that all other religions were former versions of islam.
this is quite interesting isnt it. in future many such things will happen and the devil will start quoting scriptures for its purpose
i requeset everyone to be aware of this false propaganda. remember when a person converts from hinduism to islam or christianity, it is not one friend less but one enemy more
let us remember the words of mohammed ali jinnah "pakistan was born, the day the first hindu converted to islam"

The first man on earth was Adam and the first Prophet of Islam was Adam (pbuh)...Islam is there since man set foot on this earth..There were more than 124000 messengers sent on the face of this earth...Adam (pbuh) was the first and Mohammed (pbuh) was the last messenger...Many revelations were sent to different messengers at different periods of time...Quran mentions four such books..Vedas have divine messages and they MIGHT BE the revelations from God (we cant say surely)..Similarly Ram or Krishna were not Gods but must have been messengers of God (cant say for sure) but the people turned them into idols.

I have heard a Muslim speaker say that Mohammad himself always existed and he was with Allah even before creation. One message for mankind at the beginning would have been enough for all mankind, when it is said that Adam was the first prophet. Why did Allah have to send messengers after messengers? Was it that the people refused to hear Him or because His words could not stand the test of time? If it is claimed that Islam was there even before Mohammad, does it mean
1. that Islam was functioning then without the Quran?
2. that Islam failed (and therefore Mohammad had to be sent) because there was no Quran in those times?
3. or Allah failed in not sending the Quran with Prophet Adam himself?
Anyway, now that we have the perfect book of the Quran, why is not Islam working? The majority of people do not accept Islam. Does it mean Allah would be forced to send another messenger and a new Quran? It would not be morally right for Him to judge the people without first having properly instructed mankind with the proper scripture – one scripture acceptable to all mankind - would it? Or does Allah use the yardstick of only what is acceptable to Him and not to mankind?

Venu bhai,There was a huge period of gap between Adam (pbuh) and Noah (pbuh). The first signs of idolatory started during the period of Noah (pbuh). Thats when Noah was inspired by Gabriel to build the ark. Quran says in every age we have sent the messengers to give glad tidings to the people. Even Noah's son was among the disbelievers and paid the price in the floods. Yes you are right, people refused to hear the messengers and continued their blasphemy.Yes, Islam was functioning without the Holy Quran. Every messenger of God received revelations like Psalms, Torah, Bible and in every age we had disbelievers just like now where the majority of the population disbelievs.The Holy Quran is the compilation of all that happened before Prophet Mohammed plus more. It is said in the Quran that there will not be any more messengers or revelations from God till Day of Judgement.Quran contains so many issues zakath to poor, hajj, marriage, divorce, adultery, respect to parents, striving in the way of God etc..When just Adam and Eve were on earth, what purpose will the whole Quran serve? Please ponder over your question.God is God, the Creator, the Sustainer, everything...Who are we dumb human beings who are always dependent on every little thing in life to question the wisdom of the Creator!
