Sara Ali Khan - Kedarnath Controversy - Page 4

I think visiting different temples, mosques, churches etc is fine, but if a particular big holy site is asking for evidence of religion, then i don't see any problem with that

To go to mecca, you have to be a muslim, because you have no other reason to be there besides praying. If kedarnath temple is asking for sara to show evidence that she is a hindu then that's fine, becuase it is a site for praying.

Any person is allowed to visit a mosque, i have seen people of all faiths visit mosques to learn about islam, so there is no limitation to anyone in visiting a mosque, it is only mecca which is place only muslims can visit. Many people visit mosques around the world for their architecture and islamic art aswell. like the sheikh zayed mosque in abu dhabi and the blue mosque in turkey, nobody is stopped from going there. Recently ranveer and deepika visited sheikh zayed mosque and they are both hindus, they went to see the architecture of the building and they are ambassadors for abu dhabi travel

Looks like you have no basic idea about Hinduism...Vedas and Upanishads are the first religious texts which preached about God being one and also omnipresent...They say- God is. PERIOD....There is no other strings attached to it saying God is there, here, female, male, a thing..Hindus believe in God is one that's why they don't have a problem going to the church or mosque or any other religious place....

Hinduism is a polytheism. Plain and simple. There can not be any doubt that not only our religion puts emphasis on polytheism, it again and again enforces the importance of various deities , their places , what is the importance of such a system. It heavily emphasizes upon various methods of worship be it fire rituals aka yagna, japa ( recitation ) , dhyan ( meditation) , puja of either symbols or idols or iconography. All these methods have their own place and importance and no one method can trump over other.

Not just many Gods , we worship many other beings ,like Demi Gods, various avatars, animal spirits, many other lower spiritual beings like Yaksha , Gandharva, cohort of companions of our main Gods . This is a vital part of our religion. We worship the land, we worship divinity, we worship mother Ganga, we worship the cow. We worship all forms of energy and nature in all it's manifestations.

Our religion only said there's one infinite divinity . Never said there's one Supreme godly being . That very idea is anti Hindu and stands against everything our religion stands for. It is not allowed or accepted to say things like there's one almighty father God aka Parampita in our religion. Our religion doesn't conflate one God with another and say they're all just one God.

Our religion considers divinity one only as one unbroken existence but never said there's one God. It's a fundamentally Abrahamic concept, that has no place in Hinduism.

We say Kali is Vishnu and Vishnu is Kali yet we say they're also very distinct and different supreme divinities. Same for Hari and Hara. ( Lord Shiv and Lord Vishnu ).

It's like saying we're ONE family while putting emphasis on different family members.

Let's not conflate them as one.

Our religion never allowed presence of other faiths in places of our worships and rituals. Presence of any non practicing person ( mlechha , we even have a specific term for it . ) destroys the result of Yagnas and anger the Gods, ruins the sanctity of holy places and makes them unfit for worship. Many hindu religious texts mention once a non Hindu enters your house ,you must discard all items of worship including the idols because Gods will not accept your puja through them anymore, they've become impure and unfit for worship.

Please do your studies and stop spreading wrong information about our religion and practices.

Who gets to decide ? I mean if you're that orthodox how is it that you watch all these Bollywood movies with all that naach gaana and so many nange pange people ? All that's ' forbidden' too. You shouldnt be attending parties wearing lipstick or eyeliner because numaish mana hai. You shouldnt be having a pic of Jen Anniston as your dp lol . Don't let orthodoxy and the 21st century coexist , have some dignity and just sit at home waiting for your husband to return after hooking up with a slave girl while the Hindus among us apply sunscreen before committing Sati.

Where does being an orthodox even come in the picture? I am only saying to not mix two religions together..every person has his own extent of practising..because i believe in islam does not mean i will stop watching movies..thats very judgemental..

Sara knows god is one camp ⛺️ ❤️

Sara is like my friend who is of mixed ethnicity and grew up with a Hindu mother and Muslim father. That girl 100% identifies as a Hindu. Her very muslim sounding name confuses ppl all the time. Anyway none of this is strange to me coz most children will follow their mothers faith and culture majority of the time.

ETA :- It sounded like you were on the side of those Hindutva people. I didn't know you were Muslim or I would have phrased the previous post differently. Didn't mean to be rude to you. ✌️

All those hindutva people ? And sorry only because he is Muslim ?

thank you. When people behave online like this, imagine what you all will do to our temples. Best stay away like we do to yours.

Even their apologies are based on the faith of the other person

Yes. You have explained so well. Some people here even apologize for being rude only if you are Muslim or not and say “Hindutva people” not Hindus I think the point is made - don’t make our temples unholy and don’t make our streets unholy by praying on them either (which is really intentional harassment by them)
