MISCONCEPTIONS FOR ALL TO READ
AN OPEN BLOG
This is part of a continuous process to enlighten ourselves about Brahma -Allah-,Religion, Quran-Vedas, Puranas,Prophets-Gurus- and so called present day self made GODS !
Dear Shri Venugopal
I have decided NOT to take your advice and discuss personal views about religion only in personal Emails and thus have brought this out in the open for a healthy discussion •NOT confrontation I read your NEW Blog •to Rocking & Macho Man and I did post some short comments on those ! BUT like I have always said • maybe you are working for NDTV in Fort, Mumbai and thus your detailed comments almost always get posted • WHEN all OUR detailed comments ALWAYS get Rejected ! Its frustrating when you cannot reply on the same blog and have to create a new blog to comment on an old blog !
Anyway coming to our points for discussion _ (Not Confrontation -Venuji !)
A. Your 13 point reply to Mr Rocking is replied at the bottom•point by point !
B. Your reply to Macho-Man & Citizen Kane is also taken up !
C. Your Contradiction- collision • correction - confusion- comments are also taken up !
D. Your Comment to Hindu Icon Blog Therefore a Hindu, imbibed in the ethos of Hindu culture, can accept Islam as also a path to God.
E. Again your Comment • “Therefore whatever Islam is, Hinduism is greater. Both are definitely not in the same league.
F. Some bloggers have taken exception to CUT PASTE jobs • I agree it should be kept short and to the point • BUT what to do when people like Venuji-camouflage a whole paragraph in ONE WORD • It does need explanation for our interested bloggers - So here goes !
But before I start • here are some preliminary questions to Venuji • which I am sure he will find some Confusing Vedic terms to reply to * BUT Venuji -Please keep it in simple English for ALL our fellow bloggers to Understand .PLEASE !
*****PRESENT DAY EVENTS *****
Islam is Terrorism • Terrorism is Islam. • How does this compare with • ULFA, IRA, LTTE •our own Shiv Sena- RSS • PLO-PLPF-Basque ETA- & Yakuza-Mafia-& Neo Con Bushism etc . I will explain each one in simple english for our fellow bloggers after YOU reply in Vedic!
NOIDA Murders are only mentioned as that- no religious color to Moninder Singh & Surinder Kohli •BUT if any Muslim name had cropped up- It would have been blown out of proportion and may be a new one - Islamic Cannibalism ???
665000 murders in Iraq • ALL MUSLIMS • 3000 American troops-ALL CHRISTIANS ! ANY VIEWS ???
First Gulf War started by Saddam (under US Support) ended with the hocking of the GDP of all MUSLIM ARAB countries to the Western Economies for 15 years ! Through WMD (weapons of Mass Deception eg:Photos of Saddam’s Tanks & Satellite doctored pictures !)
ISRAEL entered Lebanon and continuously bombed Muslim areas for 33 days ! WHY ???What did they Achieve ??/
IRAQI puppet regime has signed PSA (Production Sharing agreement) with American Oil companies for the next 30 years ! Is this Deception plunder and looting justified in the Vedas ???
Mahmoud Abbas is going to sign a THREE way agreement with Israel & US for Palestinian state hood • without the legitimate democratically elected government of Ismail Haniya ?? IS THIS A SELL OUT OF PALESTINE RIGHTS -50 years of fight by Muslims •wasted ????
Rumours about a planned attack on IRAN ? Will Iran keep quiet- It will be the start of a Nuclear War . Even then you will - may be call it- ISLAMIC NEUCLERISM !
********Past events of recorded History **** (Not changed by our HRD Ministry !)***
19th Century saw BRITSH domination •Late 20th Century and 21st Century will see American Domination • then Why blame Islamic Dynasties of the 10th and 12th centuries - past ?
12th Century Gura Nanak’s- Sikhism • an offshoot of Hindu & Islamic practices- No skull cap OR Burkha BUT similar head gear and body covering. Even shaving of hair is prohibited-from Islamic practice during Hajj •accidentally OR purposely •defiling a
Holy Place
! Guru Granth is respected like Muslims respect the Qur’an and kept in clean places unlike the new testament found in hotel desks • for propagating that version of Christianity !
7th Century Quran- the dreams of a prophet-as you put it. Can you dream up your own Vedas- let alone dream about • a religion or an ideology in 3 years. Quran was revealed NOT in a cave in Hira- BUT all along the central part of Hijaz in Arabia-wherever the prophet (saw) traveled- Revealed in context and bettered as the situation demanded it- In fact- learning from this QURAN muslims were the first to prepare the map, discover paper, sun dials, time clocks, and many other inventions later during the muslim rule in Spain and Arabia.. After the crusades all the muslim intellectuals disappeared and till now the same ethnic cleansing & even culture cleansing takes place • in Iraq which is the seat of ancient history too ! Even today muslims are deprived of education which if given to them, they will create wonders based on the same Qura’an which has not been rewritten since OR reformatted or re-rehearsed-or revised like our political CMP’s . It took you 10 years to learn the RSS ideology -as an RSS Pracharak and still you ended up with an India Shining ! Yes Babri Masjid was shining and now NOIDA is shining !
Pre-Islamic Christianity from 1st to 6th Century and Pre Christian Judaism • All contained their own religious texts- in book form- BUT revised entirely in content and meaning •in the Thorah and New Testament .
Pre Christian-Pre Jewish • Buddhist and Jainist doctrines • Don’t harm any living creature-not even insects . I try to practice the Jain custom of wiping off the glass •so that ants do not drown in the leftover .You take up Buddhist penance-in your Vedic “Pranayama”
Pre Buddhist Hindusim • the multiude of sages-who you say are Gods- Krishna for Love and affection - Ram- for ruling and statehood•Saraswathi- for homely deeds ? Mahalakshmi •for monetary gains ; Ganesh for happiness ? Shiva for fidelity - Parvathi for purity of women • could have been just messengers of God for one purpose only • NOT GODS or relatives of the Omnipresnt GOD ! And Unliike Christ ! SON of GOD ! OR Prophet Abraham , Issac, Ismail ,Moses ,Aaron , David, Joseph ,Jacob, Jesus (as) & Mohamed (saw) •
Pre-Hindu and even Hindu era populations of China , Japan and Mongolia etc like Huns, Mongols !
ALL THE ABOVE PEOPLES HAD THEIR OWN GODS OR AVTARS AND PRAYED TO IDOLS OR OTHER CREATIONS OF GOD • BUT NOT TO THE CREATOR -OMNIPRESENT GOD- YOUR BRAHMA • MY ALLAH !
The Ultimate difference between ALL these Qaums (Peoples) and the Muslims is that we all believe that there is ONE ALLAH and HE begets not nor is HE begotten- HE is the Creator of the heavens & the Earth and ALL that is In Between !
If that is too generalized for you - go to the Quran •to read in detail. It talks about the stars, Moon, SUN •Peoples-Generations•plants-animals-fruits-flowers-trees-climate-storms-typhoons-earthquakes-Tsunamis-Tornados-Hailstorms-Thunder-Lightning-Man-Woman-Child-Creation-Procreation-Sex-Sperm-Periods-Cleanliness-Alchoholism- Homo sexuality-Prostitution -Fasting for good health- Modes of transportation-Multi High Rises and Astronomy- Astrology-Psychics-Sihr (Homams) •Poor Rich- Fertile-Barren- Birth-Death- ….There is NOT one Modern Day topic •NOT Covered by the Qur’an ! That is the TRUTH ! • (Venugopal’s own quote Advaita is an understanding you awake to and you begin to see in a different light) The more an intellectual reads it •the more Knowledge he Inspires on others ! You and Me reading a translation of the Qur’an will take only subjects that we are interested in and start taking them OUT of Context too !
That’s the whole Problem ! That is why ISLAM is Misunderstood even by some Jihadists • Shias- Sunnis-whoever !
REPLY TO YOUR ROCKING BLOG !
K.VENUGOPAL (BLACK PRINT ) K MUNEERUDEEN RED PRINT REPLY
1. First and foremost, I would like to make clear that I am not questioning the faith of Muslims or anyone’s faith whatsoever. Faith can move mountains. No one can question another’s faith for the simple reason that is a very personal matter. But trying to pass off faith as fact can certainly be questioned.
IF FAITH MOVED MOUNTAINS-HIMALAYAS SHOULD BE IN JAPAN AND MOUNT FUJI IN ALASKA ! FAITH IS PERSONAL AND DIFFERENT FROM FACTS OF RELIGION AND WORDS OF WISDOM •BUT WITHOUT FAITH- THE ABC OF RELIIGION- YOU CANNOT UNDERSTAND RELIGION !
2. What I said was “God is not rotating the earth like you and I rotate a top.” Everything is consciousness, but it is only man who is conscious that he is conscious. We and the top are separate because the top is not conscious of itself whereas we are. God on the other hand is nothing other than consciousness. Therefore God and his creation are not separate.
IF GOD IS JUST CONCIOUSNESS • THEN WHEN YOU BECOME UNCONCIOUS- WHAT HAPPENS- GOD DISSAPERS FROM WITHIN YOU ??????
3. The drama of creation presents itself before us due to the pulsating nature of consciousness. It is this nature of consciousness that manifests in duality, which is the basis on which consciousness experiences variety. (The explanation of this calls for the explanation of intricate science, which is spoken of in the Vedas.)
YAJUR VEDA , SAMA VEDA AND VENU VEDA ARE ALL THE SAME • CONSIOUSNESS IN MAN IS GOD AND GOD CREATED MAN-SO MAN IS GOD • OH WHAT A THEOREY !
4. What we call God is the essential power of consciousness that we are. We realize that power when we wake up it. This awakening is what spirituality is all about • waking up to the power that we really are.
SCIENTISTS NOW HAVE PROVED THAT THEY ARE GOD •WITH ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION ???????- DO THEY WAIT WITH THEIR HANDS TIED • OR DO THEY BLOW IN LIFE TO THE IMPLANTED SEEDS THAT CREATE AN EMBRYO ???- IT’S THE SAME AS HAVING A ONE NIGHT STAND AND GETTING IMPREGNATED- NOTHING ELSE !
5. Issac Newton’s theory about a thing remaining in a state until and unless a force acts upon it is what we observe in our material world. The material world is only the solidified state of consciousness. THEN WHAT IS THE LIQUID FORM OF CONCOIUSNESS . SWEAT ! AFTER PRANAYAMA ?????
6. Do you remember Newton’s theory that matter can neither be created nor destroyed? There is no place for a creator God in this theory, is there?
WHO CREATON NEWTON • NOT NEWTON HIMSELF ?
7. In Islamic reasoning there is a simple answer to everything • Allah did it, Allah created it, Allah said it, only Allah knows etc. Since Islam believes the Creator-created separation, I ask, who created Allah? Or is this a taboo question?
ALLAH •GOD • BRAHMA • CONSCOIUSNESS WHATEVER YOU CALLED IT • CANNOT BE CREATED ! CAN IT ????????
8. Is a Muslim required to remember Allah with every breath of his? This is great. But what does it mean ‘to remember’ Does it not mean that Allah should be in our consciousness every moment? If you really do it, a moment will come when your consciousness becomes Allah. And such a person would say, Ane Al Haq, or Aham Brahmasmi • I am God.
AGAIN •ANE AL HAQ -- HAQ MEANS TRUTH • NOT GOD ! AND MAYBE AHAM BRAHASMI MAY MEAN THAT • BUT IT IS ONLY IN THE VEDAS !
9. The power Sufi saints have is because they are highly spiritual. The disconnect with Sufis is the major cause of problems in Islam. Many Muslims do not consider the Sufis to be Muslims at all.
SUFIS- ARE SPIRITUAL- NOT IN RIGHT SENSE. THEY ARE IN A TRANCE • A STATE OF CONSCIOUSNESS •WHERE THEY ATTEMPT TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE SPIRITS- (NOT ALLAH ) BUT SOME VERY PIOUS SERVANTS OF ALLAH • DO MANAGE TO COMMUNICATE WITH A HIGHER BEING WHICH ADVICES IN DOING GOOD- BUT NOT ALWWAYS !AND SUFIS CANNOT GO INTO A TRANCE WITHOUT LOUD MUSIC • OR THE EXTREME OPPOSITE- COMPLETE SOLITUDE ! • COMMON MAN ATTEMPTS TO COMMUNICATE WITH GOD-ALLAH- IN HIS NORMAL STATE •NOT IN A TRANCE !
ISLAM FORBIDS PRAYERS IN AN INTOXICATED MANNER •WEATHER IN A TRANCE • OR INIBERATED !- PRAYER IS ONLY IN NORMAL CONSCIOUSNESS AND CANNOT BE PERFORMED IN AN UNCONSCIOUS OR UNCLEAN STATE OF MIND AND BODY !
10. Allah’s tradition of choosing a man and appointing him as a messenger is fine. But the claim that the tradition ended with Mohammad is inexplicable, except that it is written in the Quran.
OK • SO LIKE SOMEONE ELSE SAID •YOU HAVE GURU NANAK- YOU HAVE SATYA SAI BABA • YOU HAVE PALANI BABA- YOU HAVE AYYAPPA SAMI- BUT ALL THESE MORTALS NEVER PREACHED A DIVINE GOSPEL . THEY ALL SAID THE SAME THING THAT VENU VEDA SAYS- “I AM GOD “ WORSHIP ME ! BUT PROPHET MUHAMMED (SAW) NEVER SAID I AM GOD- HE ONLY SAID THAT I AM A MESSENGER OF GOD (RASUL- RISALA IN ARABIC MEANS LETTER- SO RASUL IS JUST A MESSENGER WITH A BOOK FROM ALLAH !) AND DIFFERNCE IS LIKE NIGHT AND DAY !
11. What you mention about Mohammad sitting in the Nabavi mosque suggests, to me, that Mohammad was meditating and in the trance lost consciousness of his surroundings. However I am not able to imagine the pose he was in when you talk of ‘lap on lap’. In meditation, particularly if accompanied by pranayama, you sweat profusely. I do not know why Mohammad gained weight and his face became red. Do you?
PROPHET MOHAMED (SAW) WAS NOT A MODERN DAY SUFI SAINT .HIS RETIRING TO A CAVE-WAS TO GET DIVINE GUIDANCE FROM ARCH ANGEL GABRIEL ! YOU WOULD GO TO AN ASHRAM TO LEARN VEDAS RIGHT ? NO ONE KNOWS IN WHAT POSE HE SAT-KNEELED-BOWED OR STOOD UP FIRM ! BUT CAN YOU IMAGINE YOURSELF SITTING IN “PRANAYAMA STATE” WHEN YOUR BOSS WALKS INTO YOUR OFFICE ??? SO DON’T SAY IT. AS FOR SWEATING- OR NOT- EVEN WITHOUT PRANAYAMA • YOU SWEAT IN THE ARAB DESERT- AND IF THE PROHET DID NOT SWEAT-THEN IT MEANS •HE WAS FULLY IN CONTROL OF HIS CONSCIOUSNESS AND WAS NOT IN A TRANCE ! •AS YOU SAY !
12. You say Mohammad did not know how to read and write. For self realization neither is required. Mohammad certainly knew many things about the Jews - from them he borrowed at least the idea of circumcision and skull cap.
PROPHET MOHAMED NEVER TRAVELLED BEYOND THE HIJAZ REGION OF ARABIA- NOT EVEN TO THE NAJD DESERTS.THEN HOW CAN HE KNOW ABOUT THE JEWS ??? AS FOR SKULL CAPS- THEY ARE NOT COMPULSORY IN ISLAM •ITS SUNNAH ( PROPHET-S PRACTCE) AND CIRCUMSCISSION •A MEDICAL CONDITION WHICH AMERICAN’S DO TO BABIES • AND AS IT TURNS OUT- A MAJOR PREVENTOR OF AIDS TRANSMISSION !
13. It appears that Mohammad had relapses on his spiritual path, which alone helps to reconcile many contradictory verses in the Quran. (One verse says that if you kill one man you have killed mankind and another verses says ‘slay them’.)
I THINK I HAVE EXPLAINED THIS EARLIER. THE QURAN WAS REVELED IN STAGES AND ALWAYS IN THE PROPHETS LIFE’S CONTEXT AND INTERACTION WITH THE TRIBES AND PEOPLE. THUS WHEN PAGAN ARABS WERE USED TO WINE , WOMEN AND IDOL WORSHIP •THE PROPHET REVEALED THAT •NO ONE SHALL ENTER PRAYER EXCEPT IN A CLEAN AND UN INTOXICATED STATE. SO DOES THAT MEAN •INTOXICAMTS ARE ALLOWED OTHERWISE ? THAT WAS THEN REVEALED THAT THE INTOXICANTS- AND ‘NASHA’ AND FLESH OF SWINE-AND BLOOD ARE PROHIBITED !THE CONTRADICTIONS YOU EXPLAIN ARE BECAUSE YOU TAKE THEM OUT OF CONTEXT . LIKE IF YOU READ LA ILAHA ILLALLAH WHICH MEANS LITERALLY- THERE IS NO GOD • but ALLAH) SO YOU CANNOT TAKE ONLY LA ILAH AND SAY THAT THE QURAN SAYS-THERE IS NO GOD !!!!
CLARIFICATION FROM YOUR REPLIES TO OTHERS & ON THEIR BLOGS TOO !
K.VENUGOPAL : You've got a good point, Infidel. I can think of at least 2 things that are well known among Hindus but science (modern science, that is) is yet to discover. (1) The Kundalini power situated at the base of the spine. In fact, I believe the science of the future would be a pursuit of this power. (2) The power that is generated in temples by tantric techniques of consecration. This is a power like the power of electricity or the power of gravity or the magnetic power………. Therefore a Hindu, imbibed in the ethos of Hindu culture, can accept Islam as also a path to God.……………………. Of course, nothing should be taken out of context. But what is the ultimate context? I would say that the ultimate context is the stage of non-duality, where the creator and the created are one. In this context all texts can be reconciled. Any context less than this would only foster 'we' and 'they' dichotomy……………….Mancho Man, This is exactly what I am saying, "It is not unusual or a novel thing which had happened with Prophet Muhammad". But you folks are making it out that Islam is the only true religion and God stopped talking to anyone since the 7th century.
Who is waiting for science to discover kundalini power ?/ .Tantric power is all used up during “Kumbha Abhishekam “ & rituals ! again you say Allah is everone and everyone is ALLAH ??? Yes God stopped talking to Man after he gave Moses the TEN COMMANDMENTS and thousands of years later •gave a little baby the power to Talk and say that he was JESUS ! and still 600 years to Prophet Mohamed • and as a 40 year old adult male ! So if you are GOD •why don’t you answer that yourself !
HINDU ICON : the fire of hindu dharma could not be extinguished and will never be extinguished………..dear shandilya,the theory of relativity by Einstein is based on the same principle as propounded by Shankaracharya in the famous words "BHRAMASATYA JAGADMITYA…………can praising god make him happy KRISH or do we need to live a better life too !................... .... u ashamed of wat ur forefathers did or r u hiding behind a smokescreen as ofcourse it is not dar ul islam here, so u hav to be considerate.as for being a muslim basher, does islam require any bashing and i wont fall to that level to bash islam. these r facts, contradict them with facts not dialogues from hindi films. ............. According to science the sum total of energy from the day of creation of universe till today is the same, only forms have changed. We also believe that there exists a energy source called as Paramatma !....
NO ONE IS EXTINGUISHING THE HINDU DARMHA AND MAYBE EINSTEIN TOOK HIS THEOREY FROM "BHRAMASATYA JAGADMITYA & SOME HINDI FILMS DO REFLECT RELIGIOUS BELIEF
DHARMIK : SO TO SAY THE FRUIT OF TODAY WAS THE RESULT OF YESTERDAY ……………SO MUCH ADVANCEMENT IS THERE CAN ANY BODY SHOW AN OBJECT WHICH IS NOT CREATED BY GOD BUT BY MAN. MAN IS SO IMMATURE TO UNDERSTAND GOD WITH HIS FIVE SENSES, IT REQUIRE ANOTHER FIVE SENSES. BUT MAN CAN MODIFIY THE OBJECTS BY USING HIS REASONING A BOON OF GOD ONLY.
"SATHYAMEVE JAYATHE - TRUTH ALONE STANDS OUT !
TRUTHHURTS : Hinduism is not greater, it is greastest.??????????????
YES TRUTH SURELY HURTS ! • AND THAT’S THE TRUTH !
MISTERINVARIANT : But religion demands more than faith. Those things (commandments, if you like) are to be found in the corresponding scriptures and related literature
TRUE ! THE COMMANDMANTS ARE TO DO GOOD AND NOT TO DO HARM 0- IN WHICHEVER RELIGION YOU TAKE !
KRISH123 : It does not matter what religion you follow. It matters how you follow. God is Unique and please follow in good way as you know or as you learned. God is not going to be happy if you praise your religion. Praise God and Make him happy! Seems Mr. Venugopal is Dumb fellow who like to fuel among religion. Do not go with his comments please.
Ameen ! Amen ! sathyam ! sachch !

K.Venugopal Tuesday, January 9, 2007 12:07:52 AM
Dear Alag, The problem is not with the Muslims. There are as good or bad as others. The problem is with Islam, which is more a religion of loyalty than spirituality.
ISLAM IS LOYALTY TO YOUR CREATOR ! TRUE MR VENUGOPAL .

Rocking Tuesday, January 9, 2007 2:24:50 PM
Venugopal you are absouletly wrong when you said "The problem is with Islam, which is more a religion of loyalty than spirituality."First step to atttain is spirituality is Loyalty towards your lord.Unless you are loyal to your God you will never acheive spirituality. Spirituality is a way to acheive the goodwill of God. And for your kind information in india itself there existed so many spiritual personalities like The khaja Gareeb Nawaz in Ajmer and Khaja Nizam uddin Auliya in Delhi where thousand of people visit without the discrimination of Religion or caste and get benefitted with their spiritual power. I hope i have cleared your misconception about Islam.
KEEP ROCKING ! CLEAR THESE MISCONCEPTIONS • ISLAM IS NOT TERRORISM-ITS BUSH’S VIEW.
K.Venugopal Tuesday, January 9, 2007 5:58:40 PM
Dear Rocking, I understand you but I disagree with you. Loyalty is all about identity and identity is the very antithesis of spirituality. Spirituality is about freedom from all sorts of identity, that is, all forms of limitations. (In case our definitions of 'spirituality' are different, I wish to say that by spirituality I mean living without a psychological dependence on anything, including God.)Khaja Gareeb Nawaz in Ajmer and Khaja Nizamuddin Auliya in Delhi are Sufi personages and Sufis, if I am not mistaken, are past-masters in the final let-go of identities.
GOOD IDEA MR VENU • BUT WHO DO YOU TURN TO WHEN YOU FACE DIFFICULTY IN LIFE ?
YOUR SHRINK ? DON’T BE A HYPOCRITE ! YOU WERE BORN A HINDU ,MARRIED UNDER HINDU RITES AND WILL BE PURIFIED BY A HINDU DIP IN THE GANGES OR A POOJARI ! RIGHT ?
yaveshrana Thursday, January 11, 2007 12:18:06 PM
Stop this unnecessary debate on "WHO IS BETTER". All of you are fools if you think you can convince each other. "YOU ARGUE NOT TO CONVINCE OTHERS BUT TO STRENGTHEN YOUR PREJUDICES". Spirituality, Religion and Humanity are three separate things. First learn to love HUMANITY before you seek union with your GOD and RELIGION. No religion is better than other. You can keep criticising LORD KRISHANA, PROPHET MOHAMMED and JESUS CHRIST. They were all HUMAN BEINGS first then messengers/ incarnation of god. Nothing was revealed to them, it was their superior INTELLECT which wove the web of GODLINESS about them. GOD is beyond HUMAN FORM. He controls 87 GALAXIES-each with 87 solar systems-each with 9-10 planets. BEYOND ALL OF YOU to COMPREHEND this.
yaveshrana Thursday, January 11, 2007 1:34:04 PM
Dear ROCKING,I respect your views. This is your BELIEF. My BELIEF is entirely different. Let us learn to respect each others viewpoint--this is what I'm saying. Even within every religion, be it ISLAM or HINDUISM or CHRISTANITY there is no uniformity of the believers. Beliefs of ARYA SMAJISTS n SANATAN DHARM FOLLOWERS in HINDUISM or for that matter SHIAS n SUNNIS in ISLAM or even CATHOLICS n PROTESTENTS IN CHRISTANITY are different. Not only this there are sects within the sects. THESE ARE INDIVIDUAL ISSUES.WHY BRING THEM IN PUBLIC? What is wrong is to IMPOSE or BOAST OF ONE's OWN BELIEFS. This is the cause of human tragedy. Religion and Spirituality are seprate issues within the broad framework of HUMANITY-as part of it. May be I will one day discuss with you separately.
INTELLECTUAL RANAJI !
ATLEAST YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE GOD CONTROLS THE UNIVERSE..WE AS HUMAN BEINGS DO NOT HAVE THE INTELLECT FOR THIS. BUT 1400 YEARS AGO PROPHET MOHAMED(SAW) •AN ILLETERATE HAS SUPERIOR INTELLECT AND HE WOVE A WEB OF GODLINESS AROUND HIM …RIGHT ??/ HOW COME FOR THE LAST 1400 YEARS WE HAVE NEVER FOUND ANYBODY •LITERATE OR ILLITERATE-WITH A SUPERIOR INTELLECT. YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN MR YAVESH RANA BECAUSE WE MERE MORTALS ARE ALL FOOLS •AS YOU SAY ! PLEASE ENLIGHTEN US ….
I HAVE BORROWED SOME OTHER SCIENTISTS COMMENTS TO BACK BY VIEWS.TAKE A READ !!!!!!!!!!.

Mr Venugopal , Mr Alag ,Mr NDTV Nitin ,and now intellectual YaveshRana too !In Continuation …To Citizen Kane’s Blog and your replies on the subject in various blogs I have decided to post a new blog with scientific evidence and links to clear MISCONCEPTIONS about ISLAM -as a religion of TERRORISTS ! Please read those !
PS: I have copied some of your comments there-Please excuse !
MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT ISLAM- WHY DO WE WORSHIP ?
Everything apart from God, such as humans, angels, and spirits, are created by God. Thus, creation should not be adored and worshipped as God. No created being owns or controls anything in the universe and, therefore, can neither harm nor benefit without God’s permission. God asks us rhetorically, how can we worship other beings besides Him while we know deep inside that God has no equal or rival? Due to this, God, and none other, has the sole right to command and He, and none else, deserves our strict obedience. He deserves to be singled out in all acts of worship, without association of any partners
O mankind, worship your Lord who has created you and those before you, that you may become righteous. He Who has made the earth a resting-place for you and the sky a canopy, and has sent down water from the sky and thereby brought forth fruits for your sustenance. Do not, then, claim that there is any power that could rival God, when you know.” (Quran 2:21,22)
So often we see worship in other religions being reduced to dry, empty rituals. God informs us in this verse that the goal of worship is to achieve Taqwa. In most Quran translations, Taqwa is translated as fear, piety, or righteousness. Perhaps a more accurate translation is ‘God-consciousness’ or ‘God-awareness.’ Taqwa is to be aware of God’s presence at all times and to put a shield between oneself and God’s displeasure by doing what is right. God does not benefit and is not in need of our worship, rather worship, as all His other commandments, is of benefit to our own selves. When a person worships God, they are reminded about Him, and in turn reminded of the purpose of their life, and they themselves will be discouraged from committing vein and evil deeds. These reminders lead to Taqwa or God-consciousness.
Human beings did not appear out of nowhere, but rather God is the One who brought them into being out of nothingness. After their creation, God did not leave them on their own, rather He took care of them when they were in the womb of their mothers, and God has been caring for them throughout their life by providing for them various sources of sustenance. He created things in this life in such a way that they would be of benefit and comfort for people. Therefore, it is the Sole right of God • who created us and those who came before us - that He be worshipped, for it is He and none else who provided us these things.
God has said in the Quran about one of the evil unbelievers who forbade the Prophet Muhammad, may God praise him, from praying at the Kaaba:
“No! If he does not stop, We will take him by the naseyah (front of the head), a lying, sinful naseyah (front of the head)!” (Quran 96:15-16)
Why did the Quran describe the front of the head as being lying and sinful? Why didn’t the Quran say that the person was lying and sinful? What is the relationship between the front of the head and lying and sinfulness.

In the Holy Quran, God speaks about the stages of man’s embryonic development:
“We created man from an extract of clay. Then We made him as a drop in a place of settlement, firmly fixed. Then We made the drop into an alaqah (leech, suspended thing, and blood clot), then We made the alaqah into a mudghah (chewed substance)…” (Quran 23:12-14)
Analyse the following two sayings of the Prophet Muhammad. S.A.W) (Hadeeths)
“In every one of you, all components of your creation are collected together in your mother’s womb by forty days...”
“If forty-two nights have passed over the embryo, God sends an angel to it, who shapes it and creates its hearing, vision, skin, flesh, and bones....”
How could Muhammad, may God praise him, have possibly known all this 1400 years ago, when scientists have only recently discovered this using advanced equipment and powerful microscopes which did not exist at that time? Although Aristotle, the founder of the science of embryology, realized that chick embryos developed in stages from his studies of hen’s eggs in the fourth century B.C., he did not give any details about these stages. As far as it is known from the history of embryology, little was known about the staging and classification of human embryos until the twentieth century. For this reason, the descriptions of the human embryo in the Quran cannot be based on scientific knowledge in the seventh century. The only reasonable conclusion is: these descriptions were revealed to Muhammad from God. He could not have known such details because he was an illiterate man with absolutely no scientific training.”
Dr. T. V. N. Persaud an Indian Hindu Scientist - is Professor of Anatomy, Professor of Pediatrics and Child Health, and Professor of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences at the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. There, he was the Chairman of the Department of Anatomy for 16 years. He is well-known in his field. He is the author or editor of 22 textbooks and has published over 181 scientific papers. In 1991, he received the most distinguished award presented in the field of anatomy in Canada, the J.C.B. Grant Award from the Canadian Association of Anatomists. When he was asked about the scientific miracles in the Quran which he has researched, he stated the following: “The way it was explained to me is that Muhammad was a very ordinary man. He could not read, didn’t know [how] to write. In fact, he was an illiterate. And we’re talking about twelve [actually about fourteen] hundred years ago. You have someone illiterate making profound pronouncements and statements and that are amazingly accurate about scientific nature. And I personally can’t see how this could be a mere chance. There are too many accuracies and, like Dr. Moore, I have no difficulty in my mind that this is a divine inspiration or revelation which led him to these statements.”
Dr. Joe Leigh Simpson is the Chairman of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Professor of Molecular and Human Genetics at the Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas, USA. He studied these two sayings of the Prophet Muhammad extensively, noting that the first forty days constitute a clearly distinguishable stage of embryo-genesis.
“Summary: The Quran describes not only the development of external form, but emphasizes also the internal stages, the stages inside the embryo, of its creation and development, emphasizing major events recognized by contemporary science.”
· Could it be a coincidence that all this recently discovered scientific information from different fields was mentioned in the Quran, which was revealed fourteen centuries ago?
· Could this Quran have been authored by Muhammad, may God praise him, or by any other human being?
The only possible answer is that this Quran must be the literal word of God, revealed by Him.

Ayat(verse) of The Day On that Day mankind will follow strictly (the voice of) Allâh's caller, no crookedness (that is without going to the right or left of that voice) will they show him (Allâh's caller). And all voices will be humbled for the Most Beneficent (Allâh), and nothing shall you hear but the low voice of their footsteps Surah TâHâ - 20-108

misconceptions about islam- why do you worship, who cares if your worship or not i only know the muslims people who cannot be trusted, trusted not even in the country they live in, they are terrorists, fascists as bush rightly said. they are anti indian even they live in india. they are not to be trusted.

Sir,Correct your facts. HIS HOLINESS GURU NANAK DEV was born some 800 years after your PROPHET MOHAMMED and LORD CHRIST, LORD BUDDHA, LORD MAHAVIR,and LORD KRISHANA were born before him. AND rituals of other religions are not DRY. Stop using offending language for others. WHEN THEY DO YOU CRY. Now read my reply to you.

Dear Muneerudeenji,What is worship of God? Does it mean only the 5 times prayer? Or is the whole of living a worship? If it is the later, then that can be possible only when we have awakened to our higher self, seeing creation as a reflection of our self. If it is the former, then worship is an expression of loyalty (complete with the bows). Loyalty turns us into slaves and robots, while awakening transforms us to divinity. (Funny that the Muslims are saying that this is exactly what Allah has made us for and that they are proud to be slaves of Allah. What a perverted view of religion.) Dr. Zakir Hussain, the writer of the article quoted by you, says that Taqwa is translated as God-consciousness or God-awareness. Now since God is not something you can grasp by your five senses, He has to be grasped by our inner faculties. This is possible only if God is within us, and he can be within us only as a spirit. That spirit is our own life, our soul, our atma, our consciousness. We are that atma and therefore we are God. We are not separate from God. If we were, then our consciousness of God will only be as an object of our senses and God will be reduced to a mere idol for us. Anything that can be grasped by the five senses is a material object, an idol. Since Muslims proclaim they are not idol worshippers, they have to accept that true worship is to finally realize that we are God – not be his slave. Slaves do things. The final act is to go beyond activity and become. The slave becomes the master. This leads to the conclusion that God never created anything, everything always existed in its essence, which essence, on the principle of involution and evolution, is the stage for this so called drama of creation.

Veugopal ok i take your point for some time and accept that we are God.Now tell are we (you and me)rotating and revolving the earth, due to which days and nights are happening and also the seasons are changing.or there is some power which is doing all.Now tell me shall i accept your view that we are God.If we are God then why dont we have the power to rotate and revolve the earth and other planets.
K.Venugopal Friday, January 12, 2007 7:11:49 PM
Dear Rocking, God is not rotating the earth like you and I rotate a top. If we recognise God as consciousness, I have no objection. Because we are also essentially consciousness - both movement and stillness are consciousness. You have a God who needs someone (Mohammad) to take down a dictation over a period of many years in bits and pieces(was Gabriel in between?) which in turn he dictates to others and the book is finally out in its one and only edition after his death. What a long winded way for the Earth Spinner to communicate with his creation! Believe me, what happened was that Mohammad meditated, discovered himself and expressed his experience and that's the Quran. This is not a unique phenomenon in the history of mankind. Al Hillaj Mansoor said "Ane Al Haq" (I am God) and the Muslims killed him for it and thereby killed their chance to understand the true nature of God. So there you are Muslims, still thinking that God is a King sitting out there in the heavens and still in the process of doing things. What a busy man He must be! May a modern Al Hillaj Mansoor come along and enlighten you.

NDTV JIMujhe Kya Pata ki Aapko Paradise Ka Matlab Rupya Paisa AUR TAEL tha ! SAGE !I cant change your views. You were stabbed in the back by Muslims and lost and I was stabbed in the back by HINDUS AND lost. We are even-lets not complain. Only that I am taking the courts help to recover over Rs 3 crores !
MUNEERUDEEN Friday, January 12, 2007 7:52:40 PM
Venuji !You DRAMA OF LIFE - is beyond me ! YOu say GOD is within you -and I too say the same BUT YOU CANT SAY YOU ARE GOD !
K.Venugopal Friday, January 12, 2007 9:35:24 PM
Dear Muneerudeenji,For you God is all about demonstrating His power. That's typical, because you believe you and God are separate. From such a mind comes such challenges. For me God is the inner reality which I am. And when I awake fully to my inner reality, if not in this lifetime, then many lifetimes down the line, then I will be pleased to entertain such challenges as yours!

Meanwhile, please ask Allah to enable you to walk on water.

If you can't, would you conceed there is no Allah?
K.Venugopal Friday, January 12, 2007 9:52:22 PM
Dear Muneerudeenji,I am happy you conceed that God is within you. Now all you have to do is pray within. This is called meditation. Then you will understand what it is to say that you are God.

now, why don't you relax a bit and try to list down the Islamic groups involved with terror. Bet, it would not trouble the brain much bcos there are so many... the list will be longer than your blog.
vijay Friday, January 19, 2007 11:00:35 AM
Muneerbhai, you must have had a hard time to figure out the names of non-islamic terror groups (in you section Present Day Events)finally you managed to list IRA (long defunct as a Terror group), ULFA (fighting for its'survival), LTTE (agree as a terror group) Shiv Sena & RSS (nobody except Muslims beleive they belong here)
