I was going to write something but i found this online. 

https://www.opindia.com/2020/08/american-astronomer-carl-sagan-hindu-cosmology-cosmos-universe/amp/

At the very onset, Carl cited the ancient Hindu sacred text of Rigveda and conceded, “The most sophisticated cosmological ideas came from Asia and particularly from India. Here, there is a tradition of sceptical questioning and unselfconscious humility before the great cosmic mysteries.”

There is also a YouTube video of him saying this.

I'd say Carl Sagan trumps PBM.

There is no trumping. Both are correct. Competition thodi na hai. PBM is talking about one thing, Sagan about other.

Nah. He's just doing it because trashing majority religion is the "intellectual" thing to do. Just like people trash popular movies and praise boring ones like citizen kane on various internet forums to appear to be movie connoisseurs. No matter what anyone says Space Odyssey is not better than Infinity War.

Hinduism is the most chilled out religion of all. Whatever PBM said, Hindus don't actually care about that. He's making it sound like Hindus  have an identity crisis.

While it saddens me to say that more than half the Hindu population rotate thalis with flaming stuff asking for money and other things. There's also the spiritual part, philosophical part, Yoga and Meditation. Upanishads for instance, don't say "this is absolute" unlike others, they encourage you to be free thinkers and use logic. Unfortunately this makes the spiritual texts less palatable to most people. It's a bit difficult to write what they say in just one comment and I'm too tired to write long coherent paragraphs. 

Basically Hinduism is not one particular religion but many beliefs and philosophies combined. It's accepting of everyone. You already know that.


the identity crisis is real and i think the it stems from the transitional state of our country where we have adopted a modern secular democratic republic but feudalistic beliefs of the past are still lurking in our minds. We have yet not come to terms with the revolution unleashed by the constitution by giving equal citizenship in a country divided along caste and class,equal rights where graded privileges prevailed. And these things come out in the form of someone getting thrashed for keeping a moustache, or women getting murdered in name of honor, or when people trust pesudo science peddlers over vaccines. May be for a privileged person Hinduism may be the most chilled out thing, but for a large part the lived reality has been that of oppression, while woke people and hippies can bask in its spiritual part, intercaste marriages are still a paltry 6%. So dont try to whitewash and hide the dark underbelly of Hinduism. There are a lot of things in it that have never been as salient as in present times like yoga and meditation, but to have absolute opinions like its the greatest the bestest is dishonesty and self-delusion.




Change is the only constant ,but every society resist changes . It doesn't mean they are having an identity crisis. Americans are yet to come at terms with their constitution .Ex- racial violence . See what is happening in France or even in whole of Europe for that matter ,related to Muslims. Muslims everywhere feel insecure and oppose modern ideas . Do you think they all r having an identity crisis?

In fact, we all know how Hindu society has always accepted modern and revolutionary ideas, be it buddhism -jainism during 6th c bc , bhakti movement during medieval times or 19th c  socio-religious reform movements. 

Even today ,Hindus are accepting modern ideas at their own pace, generation by generation .The problem is intellectual hypocrites like Pbm  want Hindus to be ashamed of their religion ,just because it has some big problems. They r still having a Sepoy like mindset .  It is not Hindus who r having an identity crisis but people like pbm.

Just a few thoughts about this religion debate above sighting an excerpt by PBM. Be it any religion or sect, it does have its own evolutionary process. No belief, no thought and no public institution for that matter can evolve unless it gets tested at the altar of evolving times and intense healthy public scrutiny. Hinduism has evolved over centuries, shed a lot of regressive practices under its ambit and created a respectful base for itself in today's age. But, any question or concern regarding its people or their functioning should not be viewed as an attempt to belittle the religion itself. And this, to my mind, applies to every religion or belief we hold sacred. Ofc their will be ideological clashes but the beauty of this entire race lies in assimilation of thoughts and not shredding them into pieces with contempt. Regressive practices in our society exist, and sometimes under the garb of religiosity and for people like us, who apparently have rational minds, should be a part of that evolution. 

And for that matter, had this skewed mindset of 'my religion is better than yours' not existed amidst us, aaj main Lahore mei Chole Bhatoore kha raha hota. But khair! :P

For any reference, pls do find time to read the Sufi mystic Bulle Shah! Has some amazing things to say about God and humans!
