Breakfast in Bukit Beruang, Melaka.

In my taman, people buy their houses and raise their families here not just because of its strategic location to a vast array of convenient commercial business outlets but also for its great selection of good food...... Malay, Chinese and Indian, Fusion, Arab....you name it.....this place has it. (both non veg and pure veg).

A good example is Dim sum.  It is a perrennial favorite amongst many chinese food lovers. Dim Sum in Bukit Beruang, Melaka isn’t limited to just serving breakfast to hungry people. In fact, thanks to Hong Kong’s exposure of dim sum throughout the world, our dim sum selection has been getting better by the year. 

Regardless whether it is traditionally made or fusion with some other cuisine – dim sum will always have a place in our hearts. 

Beautifully braised chicken feet, warm BBQ Pork Bun, creamy custard bun, the infamous Siu Mai and prawn dumplings, fried yam balls and many more!

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.
