It is easy to dwell on the Caste system , but India
being a democracy for scarcely 1/2 a century ...
perhaps we may have to revisit that issue ,
say in another 250 years <G>

They are quite a brilliant people , Neo...producing
some of the finest minds on
the planet.

The idea of loss of self as a goal, even if the result is infinite bliss, does not comport with my sense of the proper disposition of things.

I rather find it interesting that many of the
very great discoveries made by many in
both science and the arts
have often been in just a state
such as this...

Your characterization of Buddhist's and Hindu's as
hysterical Nirvana & Samahdi seekers ,
scurrying around nihilistically is
OK ......if it makes you feel better.

Just what is the goal of heaven then ? What is Baptism?

I believe in an infinite gap between Creator and Creature, that can only be bridged through the benevolence of the Creator. That may mean that I have limited understanding, of course...

Let's just keep that gap intact , right Neo?

There is no capacity to bridge it ... so
let's leave it in the hands of
those who are " in the know " , and have the
largest land deeds and propaganda machine,
and have built the most impressive latest Pyramids...

I suppose that is safest....but it really
isn't the reality any longer .
