SFA 2013 DINNER COMMITTEE MEET

The annual 2013 management committee meet for our  SFA Dinner got underway recently with our official Photo shoot for the organizing committee conducted in the Malacca Club Town House which was followed by dinner for all attendees. 



To date, we have surpassed 55 confirmed tables and collected RM 36,633.00 in donations for the 2013 Fund Raising activities from Class of '74. The total collection target for this class is RM 60,000.00 to help fund the various donation facilities in SFI for 2013.



With the official photo shoot done and completed with, the next item of the agenda would be to prepare the souvenir book with facts and figures of our activities, donations and charitable events conducted within the last 12 months. Phillip and I need to sit down and prepare those items quite urgently as the Dinner is scheduled for Jan 5th 2013. That doesn't leave us with much time for collating, printing and publishing the souvenir book !

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.
