Do what we tell you and become be self-realised!

This is pretty basic understanding, doesn't need any god to say it. The thing is though that ”Hinduism” includes all the beliefs and philosophies of the lands east of the Indus (Hindustan), in all their plurality, diversity and even direct contradictions and oppositions to each other, vedic, non-ved...

Hi Black Panther, Welcome to this forum. I think the concept of "self help" in this topic is more about the idea of ”spiritual” people not accepting things that are OK or "normal" when they actually are; that there is somehow an imperative to improve/purify what is actually prett...

I would tell my students that the dojo king or queen, would not always be the one who will win the street fight, self defense battle, or combat under field conditions.

Dear CS1979, You would appreciate that we don't live here full time. We have other things in life, and we have , as you have probaby seen on forum, been contributing many hours already. As you appreciated what was written as prose, it would be a fairly simple task for you to go through the replies i...
