Hinduism for the Perplexed | Dr. Subhash Kak |
About the talks:
Hinduism describes the nature of the outer and inner realities and instructs on ways to obtain self-knowledge. The formal name of Hinduism is Sanātana Dharma (Eternal or Universal Law) and its oldest text is the Ṛgveda. Lived Hinduism is Yoga, in which one of the first steps is the practice of āsanas, which have become well-known all over the world. There are many misconceptions about Hinduism both in academic writing and in the popular press. Some of these misconceptions are so ridiculous that to paraphrase Cicero only academics and journalists would believe them. Briefly, Hinduism is a universal way open to everyone, which considers all humans to be equally capable of obtaining knowledge about themselves, and through that of Reality.

Instead of understanding this beautiful Sanatan ideology, the materialistic Xtianity & Islam are bent upon destroying the same! Shame on the two Abrahamic ideologies!

Abrahamic religions are really not about the Creator and Creation. Both of these are in fact political and colonial.

@@lajwantishahani1225 A Sanatani can worship budhha, mahabir , Sikh gurus even in some rare cases they worship Jesus but can you imagine a Christian worshipping Shiva instead of Jesus. No because they are narrow minded they don't worship anyone but Christ because they don't believe in others. Abrahemic religions are curse on earth

Kamal Salibi's work and 1985 book, The Bible Came from Arabia - yes, tribal and the tribes and place names still exist where he predicted to find them, after re-translating the never-spoken biblical Hebrew. The pre-Babylonian exile books - prophecies come from 6000 years of African prophetesses, the Sibyls - Mama Zogbés books.
ऐसा प्रतीत हो रहा है जैसे हम आज के समय के किसी ऋषि को सुन रहे हैं।
Exceptional knowledgeable content. Hinduism is west is sometimes more thorough than avg Indians !
Long awaited personality!welcome.!!🎉
Subhash Jee, This is a wonderful video you have done! Reason - since India's Indic education system was killed by Macaulay and later by Nehru, there is a class of Hindus now who have no idea our vast Indic knowledge systems. Your video gives clear information on where to start in order to understand our native knowledge wealth and use that knowledge for our present and future.
Awesome 🙏💜
A wonderful journey through Bharatiya Philosophy and its application to humanity - as beautiful as a lotus from a worthy recipient of the Padma Shri.

Research about the Tashkent Files, the real meaning of Gandhi surname of Indira, her children & grandchildren, was Nehru democratically the chosen prime minister Nehru or was it Sardar Patel, the Anti-Hindu & Anti-national Propaganda of Bollywood, truth of Owaisis AIMIM party, how Christian missionaries work in India, SDPI, Communists (check yuri Bezmenovs video on 4 stages of colonization of India), DMK, What Dr Ambedkar wrote about Islam & Muslims in his book Pakistan or the Partition of India, the Nehru ELWIN agreement to bar entry of sadhus in Nagaland, how the Gurukul education system was replaced by Lord McCauley, how caste system was introduced by the British so that Hindus hate each other, the video (Sahebs who remained in India), video by a Maulana encouraging Muslims to do street protests so that India becomes a weaker economy, Jerome Anto video on Christian missionaries conversion plan in India, the video on COVID & india's race for a vaccine (video named the vial). You will be surprised to know the reality of powerful Anti-Indians working in India with funds derived from foreign Christian, Muslim & Prokhalistan Missionaries. If you want all indians to open their eyes & know the facts, then forward all those videos to all your contacts list, friends, family. Every citizen needs to know the truth about their country. ताशकंद फाइल्स के बारे में शोध, इंदिरा, उनके बच्चों और पोते-पोतियों के गांधी उपनाम का वास्तविक अर्थ, नेहरू लोकतांत्रिक रूप से चुने गए प्रधान मंत्री थे या यह सरदार पटेल थे, बॉलीवुड के हिंदू-विरोधी और देश-विरोधी प्रचार, ओवैसी एआईएमआईएम पार्टी की सच्चाई ईसाई मिशनरी भारत में कैसे काम करते हैं, एसडीपीआई, कम्युनिस्ट (भारत के उपनिवेशीकरण के 4 चरणों पर यूरी बेजमेनोव का वीडियो देखें), डॉ अंबेडकर ने इस्लाम और मुसलमानों के बारे में अपनी किताब पाकिस्तान ऑर द पार्टीशन ऑफ इंडिया में क्या लिखा है, प्रवेश पर रोक लगाने के लिए नेहरू एल्विन समझौता नागालैंड में साधुओं के बारे में, कैसे गुरुकुल शिक्षा प्रणाली को लॉर्ड मैककौली द्वारा बदल दिया गया, कैसे जाति व्यवस्था अंग्रेजों द्वारा शुरू की गई ताकि हिंदू एक-दूसरे से नफरत करें, वीडियो (साहेब जो भारत में रह गए), मौलाना द्वारा मुसलमानों को सड़क पर जाने के लिए प्रोत्साहित करने वाला वीडियो विरोध करता है ताकि भारत एक कमजोर अर्थव्यवस्था बन जाए, भारत में ईसाई मिशनरियों की धर्मांतरण योजना पर जेरोम एंटो वीडियो, COVID पर वीडियो और एक वैक्सीन के लिए भारत की दौड़ (वीडियो का नाम वायल है)। विदेशी ईसाई, मुस्लिम और प्रोखालिस्तान मिशनरियों से प्राप्त धन के साथ भारत में काम कर रहे शक्तिशाली भारत-विरोधी की वास्तविकता जानकर आपको आश्चर्य होगा। यदि आप चाहते हैं कि सभी भारतीय अपनी आंखें खोलें और तथ्यों को जानें, तो उन सभी वीडियो को अपनी सभी संपर्क सूची, मित्रों, परिवार को अग्रेषित करें। हर नागरिक को अपने देश के बारे में सच्चाई जानने की जरूरत है।
Will you raise the matter of Manish Kashyap or not? This whole country has become sadist enjoying him being crushed by the demonic forces.😡😡
OMG .....give me a break. So dry and wordy and got totally turned off. 10 minutes in, i understand why Hindus are a confused lot. If you cannot make a five year old understand, its a clear sign you're confused yourself.

He is talking about everything else other than the crux of Sanatan dharm. Could not do any justice to the title of the vedio.
