    This is completely incorrect because it is THE GITA. DDP is factually incorrect because if a thing is true for one system it is true for the entire universe. DDP is talking about INCEPTION which is fine if GITA does it.

    I think God is not someone who is spoken of by a person and supported through interactions with a leader only. His word is the guidance and His Spirit resonates within us in the world and approves of His words. This is something Christian.

    You may have lost something or many fundamentals of Jainism ... Mantung Rishi who wrote Bhaktambar strotra also compared Bhagwan Rishbhadev as Brahma Vishnu and Mahesh... Even in Rishi mandal Stotra, bhagwan Mahavir has mentioned about many god and goddess, bhut pret pishach,,.. It's ok that Jainism worship only 24 tirthankars, but in many occasions they accepted their existence... Not worshipping and following different religious ways doesn't mean that they don't belive in them.....

    This Guy is a Fool. He does not know anything about Jainism and Sanatan. Don’t follow him. We have all same Gods as Hinduism, that is why Jains are Sanatanis. We have Tirthankaras also, whose path we follow for attaining moksha. The Aim is Moksha, either by Karmayoga or Veetrag. He looks like a lifetime failure spreading idiotism

    I agree that the idea that all world stories fit the 'hero mono myth' is extremely limiting (and insulting to the great diversity of world stories that exists)! not only does the 'hero mono myth' try to homogenize the multiplicity of rich storytelling traditions globally (the vast extent of which will never be known by one person), it blindly ignores the experiences of half the world population (women) who have for most of our human story been unable to leave their communities to wander about in the world and have external 'adventures'. the battling with and conquering external 'bad guys' is a very male singular 'hero' story, and does not represent most women's experiences. for women the 'battling and conquering' most often takes place in our inner worlds, as we may spend most of our lives seeking to overcome internalized self doubt, insecurity, loss of voice, inherited intergenerational family trauma, sexual trauma, etc. the 'forces' we are 'fighting' aren't 'demons' to be slayed, as much as inherited psychological patterns of bondage to be painstakingly undone, unknit, released, and healed within ourselves. because this work is inner, and takes place in the deepest parts of our psyches and souls, it does not make for flashy movie scenes or plotlines, and thus is rarely represented on screen. and the old stories women have told to each other have so often been lost with the advent of writing and domination of male stories. men who write about mythology have had the arrogance to think that their male hero stories represent and speak to the experiences of all of humanity, when in fact, they are just partial truths for partial groups of (mostly) men! yet rarely does Joseph Campbell's model get critiqued for his obvious gender bias, and his model served to invisiblize women's stories even further! women mythologists are still few compared to men, and rarely hold the same level of stature. women's stories continue to be seen as less important to men, and most female characters in mythology are told through the 'male gaze', using tropes like 'temptress'/ 'pure devoted wife'/ 'sexually desirable virgin'/ 'detestable woman'/'feared woman'. for all of us who are engaged in the arena of mythology, it is so important to bring forward women's voices, stories, analyses, oral traditions, art forms and 'hidden cultures' in order to balance out what has been a very male-dominated field that has left women 'out in the cold' with little to draw from to nourish ourselves, or in which we can see our own lives reflected.

    as soon as the image of the pharaoh holding both symbols of agriculture and animal husbandry was given, I thought of the Genesis story of the first brothers Cain and Abel. the brothers both make a sacrifice to 'the lord god', who favors Abel's (blood) sacrifice of firstborn lambs, over Cain's (bloodless) sacrifice of crops. in the later New Testament scriptural commentary on this story, the two brothers are dichotomized, with Abel being called 'righteous', and Cain 'evil'. Cain, the firstborn, a farmer, kills Abel the shepherd. the male creator deity exiles Cain, who is cursed (as his first parents were before him by this same punishing deity) to 'no longer receive strength from the land', and to become a nomad. so interestingly, in this very patriarchal tale, the herder who kills is praised while the agriculturalist who eats without killing animals, is rejected by the deity. (no wonder that those from the Abrahamic religions have had very little inclination toward vegetarianism!) this story is similar to the other Old Testament story of Joseph, in which the youngest brother is favored by 'god' and the older brothers are called 'wicked' and seek to harm the youngest son. 'god' favors the youngest son. these are the stories I grew up with, and made an indelible impression on my impressionable mind. as I write about it now, I am astounded by the unfairness of this story, and the cruelty of a god who plays favorites and judges humans harshly. yet the message given from my earliest years was that I was to accept 'gods' judgements as 'just'! somehow I was expected to feel love from and toward this fearsome unpredictable 'god'! how completely different from the nurturing and all including Mother God found in the Hindu tradition, whose stories I crave, and whose spiritual tradition I now seek to learn from.

    I think it's natural for humans to want to feel proud of where they come from, and this is a main psychological draw for mythology, as we hunger for stories that create meaning of our lives, and make us feel a part of broader intellectual/ psychological/ spiritual traditions, greater than ourselves. it's the 'mine is better than yours' (गर्व garv) attitude that creates problems, prejudice and attitudes of superiority, rigid beliefs, and oppressive behaviors.

    Dear Mr. Pattanaik please correct your facts.Meaning of Dharma is not RELIGION. Well explained by many Gurus. Dharma means DUTY . Each ones duty. Duty as Father or Mother,Duty as Husband. Or Wife, Duty as Brother or Sister,Duty as Friend,Duty as Teacher Duty as Neighbour,Duty as Citizen .... and so on. Noway Dharma means Religion. Religion belives in one God,One Book and One Phrophet. Ours is Many Gods,Nature is also worshiped, and Libray of books with many sections and we also respect atheist.

    Sir, With all respect, I DON'T agree that Temple is meant for Darshan ONLY. Temples can be and are a Teerth Sthan, meant for Pilgrimage as well. Pilgrimage for penance, for grant of a wish, etc. Also, I believe Yajna are probably 4000 years old if not more ✌🏻 Just my input.
