Karma And Hinduism

"KARMA is what most of the life is all about with rewards, remunerations, honors, penalties and damages, discipline and lessons. Karma is one of those aspects of Hinduism where besides being an activity it alerts and guides us toward righteous and meaningful living".

Hindu Temple

HINDU TEMPLE:"In this spiritual abode the smell of incense, the sight of lighted diya (clay oil lamp), the ring of temple bell, the singing of prayers, the reciting and hum of mantras, all create an environment of divine feel and resonance to have moments with the divinity. The sanctity of the place is defined".- Hinduism:beyond rituals,customs and traditions.

Hinduism..... by Promod Puri

"Dharma seeks conscious conduct of life on moral values of honesty, compassion, truthfulness, and purity of body and mind. It is a behavior toward ethical living. Dharma involves austerity, saintliness, absence of anger and non-violence. Dharma-based actions, duties and responsibilities are the commitments toward a righteous living". Excerpt from Hinduism:rituals, customs and traditions.

Hinduism

BOOK RELEASE

"Hinduism: beyond rituals, customs and traditions"

Why are there so many gods and goddesses in Hinduism? Why worship an idol? Is going to temple mandatory in the faith? What impact does the caste system have on Hindu society? Why do some rituals make perfect sense while others are so vague? What are the secular and diverse characters in Hinduism? What physics principles constitute the sound of Om? What is karma and its role in our day to day lives?

These and more subjects are eloquently dealt with in the just released book titled "Hinduism: beyond rituals, customs and traditions" by Vancouver-based writer Promod Puri.

The book is both educational and provocative in the areas of rituals and casteism. It makes quite a sensible reading for rational and contemporary mind.
