Civil Services Mains 2020 Results: In or Out ? Way ahead, gratitude and Pain
The Civils Mains result has been declared. This thread is for sharing your grief , joy , mixed feelings - absolutely anything and everything.
I was going to write something but i found this online.

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.
Dude I just said that Hinduism doesn't say "this is absolute, that is absolute". It basically encourages you to use your common sense to learn the true nature of existence.
Caste discrimination is real, nobody is denying that. I'm a General caste Fair man, unfortunately these things are a privilege here. I don't pretend to understand what others without those 2 privileges go through. You know very well that these backward characteristics are entrenched in all major religions, here in India and it will be a great dishonesty and disgrace if someone singles out one without addressing the others.
Hinduism is multifaceted and the spiritual part of it is worth your time. I like it because it deals with a subject that fascinates me the most. Science and other religions are sllpilent on it. Consciousness/ soul, whatever you want to call it.
