Hari Raya bersama Hj.Moidu sekeluarga.

Visited Haji Moidu .

This year we were accorded the privilege of spending time over breakfast with Hj. Moidu and his family in his home as his visitor's and well wishers slowly dropped in one by one. In his usual style, Hj.Moidu entertained each and every well wisher of his clan and associates a very welcomed hari raya  with blessings for the coming year and providing everyone a sumptuous breakfast of local favorites.



Hari Raya open house during Breakfast @ Moidu's
Over cups of very tasty coffee we talked and reminisced of events leading up to the year in good spirit and much nostalgia. My mother in law even insisted this year that we include her in during our visit here as she enjoys the food and camarederie very much.
Sayur Lodeh
Sandra popped in just as we were about to leave as his relatives started coming over, giving us some time to say Hello followed by Good Bye immediately! Moidu was happy with all his visitors as he was busy making sure everybody had their plates full and were satiated.
Dodol !

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.
