Pictorial diary of past few weekend.

The Family visiting Chandra @ the National Service Camp where he will be for the coming 3 months.
My son looks very dashing in uniform,no ?




The weekend we were in KL for lunch with my sister Mala and her family, (not in picture) followed by Tea & Thai entrees with our long lost friend- Nathan in Mid Valley and by dinner time we were enjoying the company of Ann and her husband here in Melaka over a meal of  local peranakan dishes with the Melaka river boats companying us in the background.




This picture above was taken during father's day outing the family had last Sunday which we did at the Malacca Club. Michelle is missing from some of the pictures because she's the one snapping the pictures !
Both Chandra & Utheya are getting better at the Pool Table as both managed to beat me at least one time each . My youngest son -Chandra is on leave from his National service stint for the weekend.

What is a 'HINDU' ?

In 1995, Chief Justice P. B. Gajendragadkarwas quoted in anIndian Supreme Court ruling:

When we think of the Hindu religion, unlike other religions in the world, the Hindu religion does not claim any one prophet; it does not worship any one god; it does not subscribe to any one dogma; it does not believe in any one philosophic concept; it does not follow any one set of religious rites or performances; in fact, it does not appear to satisfy the narrow traditional features of any religion orcreed. It may broadly be described as away of life and nothing more.

Common Misunderstandings on Hinduism

Vedanta (and all Hinduism) is entirely monistic, believing only in the all-pervading world-soul, Brahman, rather than a personal God

This advaita philosophy is certainly popular, and offers a simple explanation of the many deities. Nonetheless, many theologians have considered God to be a person. He is not merely an anthropomorphic representation, nor are the various deities and murtis simply incarnations or representations of an impersonal Supreme.

Thus Hinduism includes both monism and monotheism. It is misleading to call the Abrahamic religions,"the monotheistic traditions," implying that monotheism is absent from the Eastern traditions. Vedanta includes many monotheistic schools. They may accept the existence of many gods and goddesses, but strongly emphasizes the pre-eminence of the Supreme Deity.
