FYI to all: 
- Message starts-

IEcM was represented today in KL by the President and Mr.Guna for the 11.00am briefing by the International Red Cross and Red Crescent society (IFRC & IRCS) in coordination with The Nepalese Embassy with regards to the disaster that country is going through and the types of specialist & medical assistance they need now.

It was said the immediate need for cash donations through IFRC & IRCS, is what is needed urgently to assist that country to recover and manage the disaster. 

For now, our Malaysian rapid response teams, Mercy Malaysia & others are already in Nepal currently helping them.

In respect of that situation, here in Melaka, Bharat is also assisting the batu berendam vinayagar temple committee by sending a Hindi speaking priest to the temple today at 7.30 pm in an effort to give support and  to console our nepalese brothers who are factory workers here in Melaka.

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.
