Every time I hear him a new conviction is born in my mind that the ancient sages of India have not faded into the past, but are now here and for ever. Thank you Dr. Frawley.
I would appreciate if there was awareness in people to call it "Dharma" "धर्म ". "The law of multiverse, ब्रह्मा़ंड " , "law of nature, प्रकृति". This manifests itself in our way of life based on Sanatan Sanskriti. Vedic SANSKRITI is repository of knowledge of human evolution. This evolved with the time and yug (kaal). Dharma has universal application without discrimination. It gave such a good and peaceful life to its followers that India was the top economy of the world till 1200 AD since ancient time. Till the Islamic invaders took over the major part of India after several failed attempts of invasion loot and plunder. 1. The place between Himalaya in north to indu sarovar (Indian ocean) in south is called Hindu. Himalya Hi + indu. Makes the word Hindu. Used for geographic demarcation. Hindu kush mountain Hindu river called as Sindhu river all indicated the sanskrit origin of the word. But yes doesn't indicate religion but Geographic. Hindustan is a pure sanskrit origin word. Hindu + sthan. Any word added with "sthan" indicates its sanskrit origin. "sthan" became "stan" in apbhransh and prakrit. Has nothing to do with Persian or Arabic. Read the Aagmas and puran. The muslim invaders tried to demean the word Hindu with many bad words to show them down and paint them as bad people. This is how racist jokes are created. They used this word so many times that it sounded like they created this word. As in present day muslim use "gau mut" word more than the word Allah if talking about Hindu. 2. Since" Dharma" evolved and led humans from darkness to light from ignorance to knowledge. "तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमया". There was no other religion to compete So there is no name, no rules for bashing other religion and concept of conversion. You can't bash criticize or compete non existent. 3. This is why got more than 1400 books scriptures on various topics helpful in material and spiritual life and this knowledge evolved with time. 4. Ayurvda, Medicine, Vyakrna, Natyashashtra, state crafts, yagya hawan ritual, philosophy, astrology, Jyotish, poetics, sangita shastra, yoga, Veda,Vedanta, Aagam, Nigam, Itihas, Puran, Vyakaran, chhand, Nirukta, Mimansa architecture mathematics to name a few. Books are available on every aspect of human brain can imagine in such a detail that only one book Mahabharat contains one lakh shlokas. 5. In short Dharma is celebration of the diversity of Human knowledge. Celebrating life and Nature is integral part of Sanatan sanskriti. Hindu celebrate Holi Diwali Chhath Pongal Vaisakhi Sankranti alongside numerous smaller celebration round the year. 6. We as a layman only know about Dharma as a blind man knows about elephant after holding the tail of the elephant. 7. Most of us are only able to know what we see on daily basis like nature and creation worship. And on the basis of this we criticize and appreciate dharma. But Dharma criticize none. Dharma don't give scope for criticism but enlightenment and seeking truth . 8. There is so much more to know. Since I am born in a Dharma followers family. Therefore I celebrate the diversity of human thoughts with ease. Dose not mean i know everything. But once you will know Dharma out of the set criteria of Abrahamic religion for Dharma. You will find nothing to criticize like a blind man holding an elephant tail and saying why he is made to hold a snake. Instead of criticism You will question and seek answers. 9. For example when you see a survivor on discovery eating dead animal poo and pee either you appreciate or criticize this. But no one can deny that this human will survive the odd. And Dharma have a complete set of philosophy and practicing sect called aghori. However a few. To make sure that the human will survive the extreme. Human will not die out because of the certain dogmas made by the so called civilized society or religion. Dharma supports all accommodates all. 10. Religion ends at heaven and hell only but the Dharma gives to strive even beyond this. That's Moksha complete liberation. Gives emphasis on seeking, knowing your self deep within and finding your own path. This is the reason from Sanatan dharma lots of ism like Jain, Buddha, Sikh, vaishnava Shaiva, Atheism, came out without any conflict or blood shed. Can you imagine the same with Abrahmic religion? 11. If someone adopts Sanatan dharma way of life. He automatically fits into the either Varna Vyavstha Brahman, Kshatriya, Vaishya, Shudra according to their profession or Ashram Vyavstha Brahmacharya Grihasth Vanprasth and Sanyas. Together its called Varnashram Vyavstha for the benefit of the society. I can enlighten you on this vedic Varnashram vayvstha. Mail me Varna division start from us. Our head is our brahma to control our shoulders are our kshatriya to protect us our stomach is our vysya to feed us and our foot are our shudra to serve us. In other words for ourselves we ourselves are our ब्राह्मण, क्षत्रिय, वैश्य and शूद्र. For our family we all ब्राह्मण, क्षत्रिय, वैश्य and शूद्र for each other. But for the society we are ब्राह्मण, क्षत्रिय, वैश्य and शूद्र according to our profession to the society. In Another term division of profession. Which exists all over the world in different forms. And this is most scientific division of profession to avoid conflict in society. This Varna can be achieved by your Karma. To fit into Ashram one has nothing to do. Fits in naturally and can stay in any of the phase as long as he wants. Now it depends on us that we respect equally to our teacher and our toilet cleaner. Which Dharma clearly says respect each and every thing. This is why worship for all not only to teachers. So if you respect your teacher and toilet cleaner equally you are a great Dharmik person. To show respect we must touch feet not the head. Now where you see fault in this varna system. Lots of Rishi like Valmiki, Vedvyas, Ravidas, Parashar etc were not born in cast Brahman but respected worshipped. Cast seems a tribal identity with all the evils of Ego and depends totally on an individual local social environment no support from Dharma 12. Sanatan Dharma allow an individual to seek truth, follow a path or make his her own path to reach the goal of 'Brahma" the energy and consciousness of the Brahmaand. The feeling of अहं ब्रह्मास्मी, I am the consciousness makes one enlighten and तत् त्वमसी, so are you makes you a Guru. This is the reason encouraged many enlightened soul to find and make their own path. Thus Jainism, Buddhism, Sikhism, sant parampra like Kabir, Ravidas etc were born without any conflict. Dharma allowed them to propagate and flourish 13. Comparing Dharma with one book one prophet religion is not a good idea. Can only increase ignorance. Because books of mazhab are small simple and for that for the followers of that particular mazhab only. So better study the world's oldest surviving civilization based on Dharma with universal application, yourself. अहं ब्रह्मास्मी l तत त्वं असी. सर्वे जना:सुखिनो भवन्तु. सर्वे सन्तु निराम्या:l वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम l सत्यमेव जयते l ॐ शांति l
Hindu dharma not Hinduism. It speaks dharma. In Bhagavad Geeta Devotee questions Lord Krishna answered that is Bhagavadgeeta is the essence of Vedas. Hindu dharma do not promote people to convert others. Because other people may have other path to realize God. God is one that exists in all forms, a spark within every form.
Ram Sivaji To put it another way Hinduism does not declare “ My way or the Highway “ ( ie Hell for eternity ) like the Abrahamic religions. In Hinduism the possibility of salvation is eternal because karma and rebirth.
Thank you Sir We are a small tribal Hindu community in the North eastern India. Our traditions, cultures, rituals are very very different from the mainland Indian Hindu cultures. Some of the people here do not even know what their religion is called. They may have heard the word Hindu, but do not know that it is the name of their religion given by others.🥰😊 Innocent people.
He is quite right most of the Indians themselves do not know about Hinduism just like others and thinks it just like another religion.We fail to understand it is way of life,seekers of ultimate truth which prevails in the universe,the Sanatan Dharma.
My huge respect to #DrFrawly & simultaneously feel angry at our previous socialist govts like #Congress which kept us Indians away from our own traditions & made us feel ashamed of it. Thank you Dr. Frawly for bringing my conscience back & feel proud of my great traditions & Dharma. Pls keep up your necessary work.
In the academic study, there is a course called, " Comparative Religions". You will have a semester orientation of different religions in the world. Some are quite different from each other; while others seemed in some way to be related. That's how you have a little knowledge of each of them.
greatly manifestate the hindu meaning.unfortunately only few hindus know the whole hindu cultural books. very few hindu know about the vagyan bharavi book.
Imagine that ...you grow up as a Hindu, you get converted, you get unconverted and then you find Dr.David frawley who explains Hinduism better than your own family. It is tragic we have lost our roots, thank you for explaining this to us.
I wish that human kind finds its way back to living a life aligned with nature. And that we all shine in our own unique way. All this misuse of religions for political gain has made our species so miserable and bitter..
Yeah but this religious tradition is now called Hinduism which include Shaiva, vaishnava, shakta, Smarta, Ganpataya, surya sect..you can also call it sanatan vedic dharm
Hinduism is the only religion (In fact culture) which is not book-based religion, books come into existence by 5000 years ago through meditation (vedas). Hindus main aim is enlightenment, Liberation, freedom from birth and death. God is secondary to them, In the Gita, God guides him (Arjuna) to enlightenment and righteousness (Dharma) not to stick to him. Hindus are seekers, not believers ( like other religions). Hindus follow karma yoga (good actions). Meditation, Yoga, self-knowledge (who am I), penance, watching breath are primary to them and book/s are secondary to them. Other religions concept is one god exists but Hindus concept is the only god exists in everything and everywhere nothing else. Hindus say body and mind do not belong to you one day you have to leave them. Only your real self is yours find out that you ll be enlightened
most important its not only the culture of indians but also of Nepal.The writer of vedas was from Nepal...Even Nepal was hindu country.So just do comment mentioning Hinduism not Indians.
ashish gurjar don't u know that the ved byasa wrote it?he simply wrote it but wasn't his creation rather god.So hinduism is not only of india but of our too.
sorry bro if i hurt you . I think Nepal and India aren't different countries just name and law or government are different otherwise there is no need to have passport to visit and as indian we love Nepal as we love india . So don't be panic and realy sorry again.
All indian's and foreigners try to read/study holy/sacred Adhi Jambhava Puranamu, Chindhu Jambhava Puranamu and Dakkali Jambhava Puranamu books. You will know who is the real Creator/సృష్టికర్త?. You will know who is the real Adhi God/ఆది దేవుడు. You will know who is the real Adhi Shakthi/ఆది శక్తి?. You will know who are the real Six Adhi Shakthis/అధి శక్తులు. You will know who are the real God's/దేవుళ్ళు and Goddesses/దేవతలు?. The lord Adhi Jambhavantha is in human being shape. Not in bear shape. Why not all bears/ఎలుగుబంట్లు/గుడ్డెలుగులు becoming the human beings/మనుషులు?. Why not bear face/గుడ్డెలుగు ముఖం human beings present on the earth?. Why not bear fur/గుడ్డెలుగు జుట్టు human beings present on the earth?. Why not bear tail/గుడ్డెలుగు తోక human beings present on the earth?. The brahmins, kshethriyas, vaishyas, gurus, rishis, dhoralu, patellu, patwarilu, bhoosamulu, kammolu, khapolu, goudolu, goundlolu and all upper caste people created the false story about lord adhi jambhavantha. 👈👈✊✊
In some few books of the history of India, it often starts with the arrival of the Aryans from the North. As nomads, they settled in Indus valley some thousands years ago. They brought civilization, culture, kingdom, and Vedic religion to that region. It seems that Vedic religion is the earliest religion, and Hinduism is merely one of the off-shoots of it.
Kindly provide one evidence of arrival of Aryans from any where else> Aryans were/are domestic people of India. To this day, there hasn't been any proof of Aryans coming from anywhere. It was a theory proposed, and to this day it remains just that , a theory by Max Meuller. Indians were far more civilized than the rest of the world 9000 years ago.
Jesus Castanares it's just a European forged dream statement that there was an invasion by so called Aryans, coz the colonizers had to divide Indians as Aryans and Dravidian to exploit India. Absolutely inaccurate is this moronic theory of Aryan invasion. This stupid theory has also been thrashed in recent times by historians. Please update your database.
Today's " white " Europeans are those Indians who migrated westward Though most Indians today are brown northwest Europeans are more closely related to Indians rather than to white/light skinned chinese or koreans or even arabs
What is oppinion of DR David Frawley about racism in some Indian temples? About situation in some major Hindu temples which are not alow to enter Hindu of non-Indian origin? Jagannath temple in Puri, Lingeswar in Orissa, Shiva and Vishnu temples in Trichi, Vishnu temple in Trivandrum, Shiva temple in Trissur, Mahabaleshwar temple in Gokarna (Karnataka), Krishna temple in Guruvayur DOES NOT ALLOW white skin/western origin HINDU to enter temple. Not just western tourists but persons who followed Hinduism and got diksha in Hindu sampradaya. If you explaine temple guards that you are Hindu by your diksha and your belief, they simply answer "you are foreigner, foreigners not allowed". This is not misinformation, this is my own experience and experience of many my white skin friends. Even if you have traditional Indian dress, tilaka on your forehed (according your sampradaya) and explain temple guards that you initiated in Hinduism , you are NOT ALLOWED to enter temple and guards show you sign "Foreigners not allowed". And dont want to listern that you are Hindu. Sanatana Dharma should be open for people from all over the World who want to accept its wisdom.
Ilya Zhuravlev very sorry to hear of your ordeal..we hindus who are living abroad definitely feel you are being mistreated..its just the insecure feeling that the indians have that makes them behave like this..hinduism is ever encompassing and love driven and hindus like us will always do our best and keep praying for the doors of the temples to open wider..jst give us a bit more time and our love towards you will succeed
selvanathan ramanathan @oh stop now,just one guy complaint about something,u don't know even his intentions and u start feeling sorry.i live in India unlike u and we welcome everyone from every part of society.there are few temples where entry is restricted due to tantric culture there.read about it and u will know better.thanks and peace to u
You are right. Just need time to heal. Foreigners looteed the temples in the past. So need time to gain trust back. These rules were made during invasion times
Dear, IIya, with profound respect I would like to convey my sincere feelings to you about this matter, if you continuously explore Hinduism then you will come to know that Temple is not a particular place of God or worship. We Hindus believe that every human being is embodiment of god, so the soul of a man is the indicator of god's presence. Sometimes our mind get corrupted by negative feelings or negative deed likewise some people have a certain kind of view that the sanctity of a place may get polluted by negative feelings. So some people are debarred to enter some places. I wish you just follow the Kriya Yoga, read Puran Purush, follow You Purush Shyamacharan Lahiri Mahasaya. Explore the core essence of Hindu god realization. With love and respects.
It s true some temples aren t allowed to foreigners. But one time in Népal in Pashupatinath temple thé guard didn t Want I came in thé main temple With à spécial roudrash inside no leather and meat eaters allowed . So I asked him if an Indian Muslim or Nepali Muslim I Can Côme in ,they eat meat , so why you don t Want for me to Côme inside I m Shiva Bhakta I m vegan and thé guard allowed me to Côme in ..... Om Shanti .... Otherwise i didn t never get troubles to Côme in temples in holy places. Om namah Shiva Mahadev

Sir ji. Pagan ye nahi hai. ROFLMAO Go and research on it. Hass Hass ke mar jaoge woh hai pagan. Their basic paganism starts with big wooden totem in the middle of the forest. Wearing of masks of various animals. Enveloping yourself in vines. There are a lot of mockery. You don't know what paganism is. They called hindus pagan becuae they didn't like them. ROFLMAO Infact this part of the world was known as the land of saints when paganism. Was rampant in Europe. ROFLMAO You need to. Research it. ROFLMAO I can prove it. Because jesus. Clearly asked everyone to leave alone the land of saints for they are already divine. It's in Bible. So how can hindus be pagan? Sochnewali Baat Hai. ROFLMAO
In vedic belief systems, there is no central concept nor a central authority, in fact, there is no authority or authenticity. Firstly, word hindu is a Persian word and a hindu is a citizen of Hindustan. Words hindu-ism (ISM a school of though) and Sanatana Dharma were coined by illiterate half-naked prenomadic brahmins of 19th century during British Raj. There is no such thing as hinduism, its a faked out word coined by the vaishnavs not jains or buddhists or sikhs, to put all idolators of the land under one umbrella of Sanatana Dharma born in 19th century. They did this as a counter measure to Islam of its time. I am a christian by faith and kshtriya by blood, are you guys fooling us!!! I am also made up of the same dust and have grown up seeing and experiencing first hand. Google for the maps of the places I am writing here below before circle dancing Until British came, there was no country called Hindustan, Bharat or Bharat Varsh. India's history starts from Chandragupta I (320 A.D.) as during his time people started moving deep inland and urbanizing in tribal forms of governance. Lar is the ancient name of Gujarat state. Until then NW Gujarat was a small part of Larsa which extended from Red Sea to NW Gujarat and from there to Ethiopia. Ramachandra alias Rim-sin was the King of Larsa. Born in Agade, Mesopotamia, who came from Old Elam/Sumeria and spoke aggadic language when sanskrit was not born as a language. He was a Sumerian Lugal/Raghumal/Laghumal/Kshtriya/Warrior and an Elamite. As per Herodotus, one of the greatest investigative historian notes that both Cyrus the Great (Koras) and Darius the Great claimed Rim-sin I as their ancestor. Both are biblical characters. Rim-Sin I ruled the ancient Near East city-state of Larsa from 1758 BC to 1699 BC (in short chronology) or 1822 BC to 1763 BC (middle chronology). His sister En-ane-du alias Sita was high priestess of the moon god in Ur. Rim-Sin I was a contemporary of Hammurabi of Babylon and Irdanene of Uruk. Hammurabi is the first human law giver and 6th king of Babylon. He had a wisdom of 10 wise men and his military strategy was kidnapping enemies for ransom. He didn't kidnap Enendu alias Sita the high priestess of Moon temple in Ur. Its just the poetic imagination of your myths. On the shield of Hummarabi, there was an inscription written RAVI-ANNA or Ravana. Rim-Sin’s reign of Larsa started sometime around 1822 BC (in middle chronology). The first thing he did was to expand Larsa. By 1808 BC, the city was so big that other cities were worried about its growth. The king of Isin, the ruler of Uruk, and the chief of Babylon campaigned against Rim-Sin. He defeated them, then occupied Pi-Naratim (the mouths of the Tigris and Euphrates) in 1807, Zibnatum in 1805, Bit-Susin and Uzarbara in 1804, and Kisarra in 1802. He also destroyed Der [Mohenjodaro] in that year. He left nothing alive in Der, but sparred the inhabitants of Harrappa . In 1801 BC he sacked Uruk, sparing its inhabitants. In 1797 he invaded territory of Isin, finally seizing the capital in 1792 BC, but again sparing the inhabitants. No further events are recorded for the remaining 30 years of Rim-Sin's reign; rather, he dated all these years from his 1792 BC conquest of Isin. In 1787, the Babylon king Hammurabi attacked Isin and took it over. In 1764 BC, Hammurabi turned against Rim-Sin, who, for the past years had been neutral against Hammurabi. After six months Larsa fell. Rim-Sin was taken prisoner and died there-after. Ramachandra walked into the ocean is also just a poetic imagination. You will read all alien war fare in your vedic novels and poetry, its just a poetic imagination. Babylon is todays Ur, Najaf and Fallujah, the Sunni Triangle, Iraq. Its punishment is foretold by Jeremiah and Isaiah, the prophets in the Bible. Sumer/Sumeria is in Old Elam, Rim-sin came from Sumer and his name is listed in the Sumerian King List, one of the longest ruler. He ruled for 60 years and he was a great builder of roads, bridges and canals. I am not relying on Daniel Defoe and Josiah Conder. I just gave the classical definition of the word religion and these guys were experts in world religions in their time. I go by well researched, proved and authenticated information sources. God is not a subject of philosophy. Faith is a subject of discourse . Blindfaith is lack of common sense Nirvana - well, after achieving nirvana meaning getting out of the vedic life cycle, Buddha was still alive preaching........hello! Next vedic life : Which dead person has come to tell you, what life he got after he died? Vedic judging: Who weighs your sins and your good karma and assigns you the next life? Is it recorded in a book? Vedic Morality: What is good and what is bad according to vedic morality, define? Do you have the law to interpret a certain good deed for a reward and a certain bad deed for a punishment? Forget about degrees of punishment, just try to answer simple basic questions and it would be enough for me. Vedic sin: Define Sin as per vedas ? Eternal Vedic foolishness: You say that this creation was not created, but it was their since eons of time and space. That it do not have any beginning or end . Lets see it from scientific point of view. Everyone - and everything - grows older and continuously deteriorates. Anything unattended turns from order to chaos, from a high level of organization to a lower level. This is a universal truth. Consequently, people get sick and die, buildings and bridges collapse, cars break down, landscapes erode and natural resources deplete. No matter how hard we try, we will never reverse this process and “grow younger and better.” Systems constantly spiral downward to greater disorder. Fix the car, paint the house, pave the drive way over and over, yet some counter force seems to work persistently to undo it all. This tendency is the universal law of physics known as the Law of Entropy or The Second Law of Thermodynamics. This principle is widely considered the most thoroughly proven scientific law with overwhelming evidence all around. In many way the law of entropy is a form of decay. Its greatest power is its universal predictive quality that disorder will eventually prevail. The implications are enormous for the universe, and devastating for the evolution model. The universe, at some point in time, will run out of usable energy! One day the sun will simply burn out and life on earth will cease.
I cant understand that why some people oppose any belife which exist even after continues brutal attack on it since thousands of years. Why dont they understand that the sanatan dharma is dharma is dharma of nature and it modify itself as per need of time and civilization. It is like a sponge that absorbs every faith and belief in it . This is the strength and beauty of sanatan dharma. As per law of nature religons that have a date of birth will also have a date of death but sanatan dharm will not as it has no date of birth. The basics of nature is the root of sanatan dharma and it will not end prior to end of nature.
Ur rant just proved one thing.. That is that u r trying to convince urself why ur forefathers or u converted to an abrahmic religion n ur ego wants other ppl to belief ur narrative. No one is stopping u in following ur religion So, go n get a life.
I would say you are wrong in some respect. Hinduism is not a religion. It's a tradition and faith system which is most ancient. The European pagan faith was also hinduistic. Hercules the pagan god was none other than Balram Krishna's brother. Hercules means Hari kula Isha. The Egyptian god Baal to is Balram. The Mahabharata war caused destruction on a massive scale and left gap in historical continuity
hinduism and buddhism are very peaceful religion...i am muslim but i support this....
because you are a true muslim not by birth only but by practise and knowledge

Pandit ji.. you are awesome...You are the river of knowledge...
What a vast coverage of ideas in so short a time! You are doing yeoman's service to the Sanatan Dharma. My heartiest commendations.
I would appreciate if there was awareness in people to call it "Dharma" "धर्म ". "The law of multiverse, ब्रह्मा़ंड " , "law of nature, प्रकृति". This manifests itself in our way of life based on Sanatan Sanskriti. Vedic SANSKRITI is repository of knowledge of human evolution. This evolved with the time and yug (kaal). Dharma has universal application without discrimination. It gave such a good and peaceful life to its followers that India was the top economy of the world till 1200 AD since ancient time. Till the Islamic invaders took over the major part of India after several failed attempts of invasion loot and plunder.
1. The place between Himalaya in north to indu sarovar (Indian ocean) in south is called Hindu. Himalya Hi + indu. Makes the word Hindu. Used for geographic demarcation. Hindu kush mountain Hindu river called as Sindhu river all indicated the sanskrit origin of the word. But yes doesn't indicate religion but Geographic. Hindustan is a pure sanskrit origin word. Hindu + sthan. Any word added with "sthan" indicates its sanskrit origin. "sthan" became "stan" in apbhransh and prakrit. Has nothing to do with Persian or Arabic. Read the Aagmas and puran.
The muslim invaders tried to demean the word Hindu with many bad words to show them down and paint them as bad people. This is how racist jokes are created. They used this word so many times that it sounded like they created this word. As in present day muslim use "gau mut" word more than the word Allah if talking about Hindu.
2. Since" Dharma" evolved and led humans from darkness to light from ignorance to knowledge. "तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमया". There was no other religion to compete So there is no name, no rules for bashing other religion and concept of conversion. You can't bash criticize or compete non existent.
3. This is why got more than 1400 books scriptures on various topics helpful in material and spiritual life and this knowledge evolved with time.
4. Ayurvda, Medicine, Vyakrna, Natyashashtra, state crafts, yagya hawan ritual, philosophy, astrology, Jyotish, poetics, sangita shastra, yoga, Veda,Vedanta, Aagam, Nigam, Itihas, Puran, Vyakaran, chhand, Nirukta, Mimansa architecture mathematics to name a few. Books are available on every aspect of human brain can imagine in such a detail that only one book Mahabharat contains one lakh shlokas.
5. In short Dharma is celebration of the diversity of Human knowledge. Celebrating life and Nature is integral part of Sanatan sanskriti. Hindu celebrate Holi Diwali Chhath Pongal Vaisakhi Sankranti alongside numerous smaller celebration round the year.
6. We as a layman only know about Dharma as a blind man knows about elephant after holding the tail of the elephant.
7. Most of us are only able to know what we see on daily basis like nature and creation worship. And on the basis of this we criticize and appreciate dharma. But Dharma criticize none. Dharma don't give scope for criticism but enlightenment and seeking truth .
8. There is so much more to know. Since I am born in a Dharma followers family. Therefore I celebrate the diversity of human thoughts with ease. Dose not mean i know everything. But once you will know Dharma out of the set criteria of Abrahamic religion for Dharma. You will find nothing to criticize like a blind man holding an elephant tail and saying why he is made to hold a snake. Instead of criticism You will question and seek answers.
9. For example when you see a survivor on discovery eating dead animal poo and pee either you appreciate or criticize this. But no one can deny that this human will survive the odd. And Dharma have a complete set of philosophy and practicing sect called aghori. However a few. To make sure that the human will survive the extreme. Human will not die out because of the certain dogmas made by the so called civilized society or religion. Dharma supports all accommodates all.
10. Religion ends at heaven and hell only but the Dharma gives to strive even beyond this. That's Moksha complete liberation. Gives emphasis on seeking, knowing your self deep within and finding your own path. This is the reason from Sanatan dharma lots of ism like Jain, Buddha, Sikh, vaishnava Shaiva, Atheism, came out without any conflict or blood shed. Can you imagine the same with Abrahmic religion?
11. If someone adopts Sanatan dharma way of life. He automatically fits into the either Varna Vyavstha Brahman, Kshatriya, Vaishya, Shudra according to their profession or Ashram Vyavstha Brahmacharya Grihasth Vanprasth and Sanyas. Together its called Varnashram Vyavstha for the benefit of the society. I can enlighten you on this vedic Varnashram vayvstha. Mail me
Varna division start from us. Our head is our brahma to control our shoulders are our kshatriya to protect us our stomach is our vysya to feed us and our foot are our shudra to serve us. In other words for ourselves we ourselves are our ब्राह्मण, क्षत्रिय, वैश्य and शूद्र. For our family we all ब्राह्मण, क्षत्रिय, वैश्य and शूद्र for each other.
But for the society we are ब्राह्मण, क्षत्रिय, वैश्य and शूद्र according to our profession to the society. In Another term division of profession. Which exists all over the world in different forms. And this is most scientific division of profession to avoid conflict in society. This Varna can be achieved by your Karma.
To fit into Ashram one has nothing to do. Fits in naturally and can stay in any of the phase as long as he wants.
Now it depends on us that we respect equally to our teacher and our toilet cleaner. Which Dharma clearly says respect each and every thing. This is why worship for all not only to teachers. So if you respect your teacher and toilet cleaner equally you are a great Dharmik person. To show respect we must touch feet not the head. Now where you see fault in this varna system. Lots of Rishi like Valmiki, Vedvyas, Ravidas, Parashar etc were not born in cast Brahman but respected worshipped. Cast seems a tribal identity with all the evils of Ego and depends totally on an individual local social environment no support from Dharma
12. Sanatan Dharma allow an individual to seek truth, follow a path or make his her own path to reach the goal of 'Brahma" the energy and consciousness of the Brahmaand. The feeling of अहं ब्रह्मास्मी, I am the consciousness makes one enlighten and तत् त्वमसी, so are you makes you a Guru.
This is the reason encouraged many enlightened soul to find and make their own path. Thus Jainism, Buddhism, Sikhism, sant parampra like Kabir, Ravidas etc were born without any conflict. Dharma allowed them to propagate and flourish
13. Comparing Dharma with one book one prophet religion is not a good idea. Can only increase ignorance. Because books of mazhab are small simple and for that for the followers of that particular mazhab only. So better study the world's oldest surviving civilization based on Dharma with universal application, yourself. अहं ब्रह्मास्मी l तत त्वं असी. सर्वे जना:सुखिनो भवन्तु. सर्वे सन्तु निराम्या:l वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम l सत्यमेव जयते l ॐ शांति l
David appreciate your honesty & truthfulness, with supporting facts
Wow!! So well said! Amazing! Everything he said felt so right and very thoughtful!!

siddharth rawat it is written wrong
Hindu dharma not Hinduism. It speaks dharma. In Bhagavad Geeta Devotee questions Lord Krishna answered that is Bhagavadgeeta is the essence of Vedas. Hindu dharma do not promote people to convert others. Because other people may have other path to realize God. God is one that exists in all forms, a spark within every form.
Ram Sivaji Kind of heard what you wrote a million times , its borring , this American gentleman explains it better , stop wasting your time .
Ram Sivaji To put it another way Hinduism does not declare “ My way or the Highway “ ( ie Hell for eternity ) like
the Abrahamic religions. In Hinduism
the possibility of salvation is eternal because karma and rebirth.
It was a treat listening to you,rishi sir.
proud on you sir and on your understanding.
Thank you Sir
We are a small tribal Hindu community in the North eastern India. Our traditions, cultures, rituals are very very different from the mainland Indian Hindu cultures. Some of the people here do not even know what their religion is called. They may have heard the word Hindu, but do not know that it is the name of their religion given by others.🥰😊 Innocent people.

Great Speech
very nice so insightful. n. informative amazing beautiful...
He is quite right most of the Indians themselves do not know about Hinduism just like others and thinks it just like another religion.We fail to understand it is way of life,seekers of ultimate truth which prevails in the universe,the Sanatan Dharma.
My huge respect to #DrFrawly & simultaneously feel angry at our previous socialist govts like #Congress which kept us Indians away from our own traditions & made us feel ashamed of it. Thank you Dr. Frawly for bringing my conscience back & feel proud of my great traditions & Dharma. Pls keep up your necessary work.
1st point itself was very very important :)
In the academic study, there is a course called, " Comparative Religions". You will have a semester orientation of different religions in the world. Some are quite different from each other; while others seemed in some way to be related.
That's how you have a little knowledge of each of them.
hindu riligion is best for human life that id true
people in the comment section saw the video but didn't understand it
I respect all religion but Hinduism is a great religion.
greatly manifestate the hindu meaning.unfortunately only few hindus know the whole hindu cultural books. very few hindu know about the vagyan bharavi book.
I am proud of Hindu.
Imagine that ...you grow up as a Hindu, you get converted, you get unconverted and then you find Dr.David frawley who explains Hinduism better than your own family. It is tragic we have lost our roots, thank you for explaining this to us.
I wish that human kind finds its way back to living a life aligned with nature. And that we all shine in our own unique way. All this misuse of religions for political gain has made our species so miserable and bitter..
Hinduism is great and it is sience of universe contains untimited knowledge.
But still vedic scriptures sings the glories of Krsna
Jai Shree ram
great video
Great!!
🙏👍
🙏💖🙏

The religion is actually Sanatan Dharm, Hindu means people who used to live beyond the Sindhu river
Yeah but this religious tradition is now called Hinduism which include Shaiva, vaishnava, shakta, Smarta, Ganpataya, surya sect..you can also call it sanatan vedic dharm
Om
🚩🚩👊👊
Hinduism is the only religion (In fact culture)
which is not book-based religion, books come into existence by 5000 years ago
through meditation (vedas). Hindus main aim is
enlightenment, Liberation, freedom from birth and death. God is secondary to
them, In the Gita, God guides him (Arjuna) to enlightenment and righteousness (Dharma)
not to stick to him. Hindus are seekers, not believers ( like other religions).
Hindus follow karma yoga (good actions). Meditation, Yoga, self-knowledge (who
am I), penance, watching breath are primary to them and book/s are secondary to
them. Other religions concept is one god exists but Hindus concept is the only
god exists in everything and everywhere nothing else. Hindus say body and mind
do not belong to you one day you have to leave them. Only your real self is
yours find out that you ll be enlightened
most important its not only the culture of indians but also of Nepal.The writer of vedas was from Nepal...Even Nepal was hindu country.So just do comment mentioning Hinduism not Indians.
as the vedas tell us that there is no writer of vedas ! search it and clear confusion man ..
ashish gurjar don't u know that the ved byasa wrote it?he simply wrote it but wasn't his creation rather god.So hinduism is not only of india but of our too.
sorry bro if i hurt you . I think Nepal and India aren't different countries just name and law or government are different otherwise there is no need to have passport to visit and as indian we love Nepal as we love india . So don't be panic and realy sorry again.
ashish gurjar but india always mentions it as only their culture which is not true.m just spreading the truth
the vedas are constructed by various rishi and rishikas. The authors have mentioned themselves at the end of their verses. read them
Welcome! to an eternal order
All indian's and foreigners try to read/study holy/sacred Adhi Jambhava Puranamu, Chindhu Jambhava Puranamu and Dakkali Jambhava Puranamu books. You will know who is the real Creator/సృష్టికర్త?. You will know who is the real Adhi God/ఆది దేవుడు. You will know who is the real Adhi Shakthi/ఆది శక్తి?. You will know who are the real Six Adhi Shakthis/అధి శక్తులు. You will know who are the real God's/దేవుళ్ళు and Goddesses/దేవతలు?. The lord Adhi Jambhavantha is in human being shape. Not in bear shape. Why not all bears/ఎలుగుబంట్లు/గుడ్డెలుగులు becoming the human beings/మనుషులు?. Why not bear face/గుడ్డెలుగు ముఖం human beings present on the earth?. Why not bear fur/గుడ్డెలుగు జుట్టు human beings present on the earth?. Why not bear tail/గుడ్డెలుగు తోక human beings present on the earth?. The brahmins, kshethriyas, vaishyas, gurus, rishis, dhoralu, patellu, patwarilu, bhoosamulu, kammolu, khapolu, goudolu, goundlolu and all upper caste people created the false story about lord adhi jambhavantha. 👈👈✊✊
Really good hinduegm
In some few books of the history of India, it often starts with the arrival of the Aryans from the North. As nomads, they settled in Indus valley some thousands years ago. They brought civilization, culture, kingdom, and Vedic religion to that region. It seems that Vedic religion is the earliest religion, and Hinduism is merely one of the off-shoots of it.
Kindly provide one evidence of arrival of Aryans from any where else> Aryans were/are domestic people of India. To this day, there hasn't been any proof of Aryans coming from anywhere. It was a theory proposed, and to this day it remains just that , a theory by Max Meuller. Indians were far more civilized than the rest of the world 9000 years ago.
Jesus Castanares it's just a European forged dream statement that there was an invasion by so called Aryans, coz the colonizers had to divide Indians as Aryans and Dravidian to exploit India. Absolutely inaccurate is this moronic theory of Aryan invasion. This stupid theory has also been thrashed in recent times by historians. Please update your database.
Today's " white " Europeans are those Indians who migrated westward
Though most Indians today are brown northwest Europeans are more closely related to Indians rather than to white/light skinned chinese or koreans or even arabs
If u r Hindu, y r u still holding Bibilical prophet's name David as ur name? Y don't u change it to vishnu or Krish?

Hinduism nahi..Sanatan vedki dharma
What is oppinion of DR David Frawley about racism in some Indian
temples?
About situation in some major Hindu temples which are not alow to enter
Hindu of non-Indian origin?
Jagannath temple in Puri, Lingeswar in Orissa, Shiva and Vishnu temples
in Trichi, Vishnu temple in Trivandrum, Shiva temple in Trissur,
Mahabaleshwar temple in Gokarna (Karnataka), Krishna temple in Guruvayur
DOES NOT ALLOW white skin/western origin HINDU to enter temple. Not
just western tourists but persons who followed Hinduism and got diksha
in Hindu sampradaya. If you explaine temple guards that you are Hindu
by your diksha and your belief, they simply answer "you are foreigner,
foreigners not allowed".
This is not misinformation, this is my own experience and experience of
many my white skin friends. Even if you have traditional Indian dress,
tilaka on your forehed (according your sampradaya) and explain temple
guards that you initiated in Hinduism , you are NOT ALLOWED to enter
temple and guards show you sign "Foreigners not allowed". And dont want
to listern that you are Hindu.
Sanatana Dharma should be open for people from all over the World who
want to accept its wisdom.
Ilya Zhuravlev very sorry to hear of your ordeal..we hindus who are living abroad definitely feel you are being mistreated..its just the insecure feeling that the indians have that makes them behave like this..hinduism is ever encompassing and love driven and hindus like us will always do our best and keep praying for the doors of the temples to open wider..jst give us a bit more time and our love towards you will succeed
selvanathan ramanathan @oh stop now,just one guy complaint about something,u don't know even his intentions and u start feeling sorry.i live in India unlike u and we welcome everyone from every part of society.there are few temples where entry is restricted due to tantric culture there.read about it and u will know better.thanks and peace to u
You are right. Just need time to heal. Foreigners looteed the temples in the past. So need time to gain trust back. These rules were made during invasion times
Dear, IIya, with profound respect I would like to convey my sincere feelings to you about this matter, if you continuously explore Hinduism then you will come to know that Temple is not a particular place of God or worship. We Hindus believe that every human being is embodiment of god, so the soul of a man is the indicator of god's presence. Sometimes our mind get corrupted by negative feelings or negative deed likewise some people have a certain kind of view that the sanctity of a place may get polluted by negative feelings. So some people are debarred to enter some places. I wish you just follow the Kriya Yoga, read Puran Purush, follow You Purush Shyamacharan Lahiri Mahasaya. Explore the core essence of Hindu god realization. With love and respects.
It s true some temples aren t allowed to foreigners.
But one time in Népal in Pashupatinath temple thé guard didn t Want I came in thé main temple With à spécial roudrash inside no leather and meat eaters allowed .
So I asked him if an Indian Muslim or Nepali Muslim I Can Côme in ,they eat meat , so why you don t Want for me to Côme inside I m Shiva Bhakta I m vegan and thé guard allowed me to Côme in
..... Om Shanti ....
Otherwise i didn t never get troubles to Côme in temples in holy places.
Om namah Shiva Mahadev
You can kept your Hinduism.
Ivan Drago @we are keeping it since last 12000 yrs and will continue to do so.u keep hatred in ur heart.
Maverick 1 More than 12,000 and we are proud of it.
are you capable to show the word HINDU frfom basic scriptures

Pagan ye nahi hai. ROFLMAO
Go and research on it. Hass Hass ke mar jaoge woh hai pagan.
Their basic paganism starts with big wooden totem in the middle of the forest. Wearing of masks of various animals. Enveloping yourself in vines. There are a lot of mockery. You don't know what paganism is.
They called hindus pagan becuae they didn't like them. ROFLMAO
Infact this part of the world was known as the land of saints when paganism. Was rampant in Europe. ROFLMAO
You need to. Research it. ROFLMAO
I can prove it. Because jesus. Clearly asked everyone to leave alone the land of saints for they are already divine. It's in Bible. So how can hindus be pagan?
Sochnewali Baat Hai. ROFLMAO
In vedic belief systems, there is no central concept nor a central authority, in fact, there is no authority or authenticity.
Firstly, word hindu is a Persian word and a hindu is a citizen of Hindustan. Words hindu-ism (ISM a school of though) and Sanatana Dharma were coined by illiterate half-naked prenomadic brahmins of 19th century during British Raj. There is no such thing as hinduism, its a faked out word coined by the vaishnavs not jains or buddhists or sikhs, to put all idolators of the land under one umbrella of Sanatana Dharma born in 19th century. They did this as a counter measure to Islam of its time. I am a christian by faith and kshtriya by blood, are you guys fooling us!!! I am also made up of the same dust and have grown up seeing and experiencing first hand.
Google for the maps of the places I am writing here below before circle dancing
Until British came, there was no country called Hindustan, Bharat or Bharat Varsh.
India's history starts from Chandragupta I (320 A.D.) as during his time people started moving deep inland and urbanizing in tribal forms of governance. Lar is the ancient name of Gujarat state. Until then NW Gujarat was a small part of Larsa which extended from Red Sea to NW Gujarat and from there to Ethiopia. Ramachandra alias Rim-sin was the King of Larsa. Born in Agade, Mesopotamia, who came from Old Elam/Sumeria and spoke aggadic language when sanskrit was not born as a language. He was a Sumerian Lugal/Raghumal/Laghumal/Kshtriya/Warrior and an Elamite. As per Herodotus, one of the greatest investigative historian notes that both Cyrus the Great (Koras) and Darius the Great claimed Rim-sin I as their ancestor. Both are biblical characters.
Rim-Sin I ruled the ancient Near East city-state of Larsa from 1758 BC to 1699 BC (in short chronology) or 1822 BC to 1763 BC (middle chronology). His sister En-ane-du alias Sita was high priestess of the moon god in Ur. Rim-Sin I was a contemporary of Hammurabi of Babylon and Irdanene of Uruk. Hammurabi is the first human law giver and 6th king of Babylon. He had a wisdom of 10 wise men and his military strategy was kidnapping enemies for ransom. He didn't kidnap Enendu alias Sita the high priestess of Moon temple in Ur. Its just the poetic imagination of your myths. On the shield of Hummarabi, there was an inscription written RAVI-ANNA or Ravana. Rim-Sin’s reign of Larsa started sometime around 1822 BC (in middle chronology). The first thing he did was to expand Larsa. By 1808 BC, the city was so big that other cities were worried about its growth. The king of Isin, the ruler of Uruk, and the chief of Babylon campaigned against Rim-Sin. He defeated them, then occupied Pi-Naratim (the mouths of the Tigris and Euphrates) in 1807, Zibnatum in 1805, Bit-Susin and Uzarbara in 1804, and Kisarra in 1802. He also destroyed Der [Mohenjodaro] in that year. He left nothing alive in Der, but sparred the inhabitants of Harrappa . In 1801 BC he sacked Uruk, sparing its inhabitants. In 1797 he invaded territory of Isin, finally seizing the capital in 1792 BC, but again sparing the inhabitants. No further events are recorded for the remaining 30 years of Rim-Sin's reign; rather, he dated all these years from his 1792 BC conquest of Isin. In 1787, the Babylon king Hammurabi attacked Isin and took it over. In 1764 BC, Hammurabi turned against Rim-Sin, who, for the past years had been neutral against Hammurabi. After six months Larsa fell. Rim-Sin was taken prisoner and died there-after. Ramachandra walked into the ocean is also just a poetic imagination. You will read all alien war fare in your vedic novels and poetry, its just a poetic imagination. Babylon is todays Ur, Najaf and Fallujah, the Sunni Triangle, Iraq. Its punishment is foretold by Jeremiah and Isaiah, the prophets in the Bible. Sumer/Sumeria is in Old Elam, Rim-sin came from Sumer and his name is listed in the Sumerian King List, one of the longest ruler. He ruled for 60 years and he was a great builder of roads, bridges and canals.
I am not relying on Daniel Defoe and Josiah Conder. I just gave the classical definition of the word religion and these guys were experts in world religions in their time. I go by well researched, proved and authenticated information sources. God is not a subject of philosophy. Faith is a subject of discourse .
Blindfaith is lack of common sense
Nirvana - well, after achieving nirvana meaning getting out of the vedic life cycle, Buddha was still alive preaching........hello!
Next vedic life : Which dead person has come to tell you, what life he got after he died?
Vedic judging: Who weighs your sins and your good karma and assigns you the next life? Is it recorded in a book?
Vedic Morality: What is good and what is bad according to vedic morality, define? Do you have the law to interpret a certain good deed for a reward and a certain bad deed for a punishment? Forget about degrees of punishment, just try to answer simple basic questions and it would be enough for me.
Vedic sin: Define Sin as per vedas ?
Eternal Vedic foolishness: You say that this creation was not created, but it was their since eons of time and space. That it do not have any beginning or end . Lets see it from scientific point of view.
Everyone - and everything - grows older and continuously deteriorates. Anything unattended turns from order to chaos, from a high level of organization to a lower level. This is a universal truth. Consequently, people get sick and die, buildings and bridges collapse, cars break down, landscapes erode and natural resources deplete. No matter how hard we try, we will never reverse this process and “grow younger and better.” Systems constantly spiral downward to greater disorder. Fix the car, paint the house, pave the drive way over and over, yet some counter force seems to work persistently to undo it all. This tendency is the universal law of physics known as the Law of Entropy or The Second Law of Thermodynamics.
This principle is widely considered the most thoroughly proven scientific law with overwhelming evidence all around. In many way the law of entropy is a form of decay. Its greatest power is its universal predictive quality that disorder will eventually prevail. The implications are enormous for the universe, and devastating for the evolution model.
The universe, at some point in time, will run out of usable energy! One day the sun will simply burn out and life on earth will cease.
I cant understand that why some people oppose any belife which exist even after continues brutal attack on it since thousands of years. Why dont they understand that the sanatan dharma is dharma is dharma of nature and it modify itself as per need of time and civilization. It is like a sponge that absorbs every faith and belief in it . This is the strength and beauty of sanatan dharma. As per law of nature religons that have a date of birth will also have a date of death but sanatan dharm will not as it has no date of birth. The basics of nature is the root of sanatan dharma and it will not end prior to end of nature.
Ur rant just proved one thing.. That is that u r trying to convince urself why ur forefathers or u converted to an abrahmic religion n ur ego wants other ppl to belief ur narrative. No one is stopping u in following ur religion So, go n get a life.

I would say you are wrong in some respect. Hinduism is not a religion. It's a tradition and faith system which is most ancient. The European pagan faith was also hinduistic. Hercules the pagan god was none other than Balram Krishna's brother. Hercules means Hari kula Isha. The Egyptian god Baal to is Balram. The Mahabharata war caused destruction on a massive scale and left gap in historical continuity
