Dear Swamiji, I am an ardent follower of your program in Asianet for the last 1.5 years. Your mentoring has indeed provoked my thinking and I look at everything around me in a different light. I think that we Hindus have been misled by our 5 senses. in your speech you say that God never punishes us and its our karma that comes back to us as good or bad events. However looking at the various avatars, it is depicted that avatars are born to kill the bad characters. Basically avatars are God and so God kills. This is the message hindus have taken to. If he is powerful enough to kill, then we should go to him and beg for forgiveness, mercy, request for wealth everything. I would like to hear your thoughts / opinion on this. ThankQ

Dear Vivek,
The technique of causing fear to direct people in the right direction is very common.
It is good for a beginner to discriminate between good and bad.
All religions use this technique and instill FEAR OF GOD among the followers.
But, Hinduism shows that GOD is not separate from you.
The bad or Asurik qualities must be destroyed and the mind must be purified to realize your DIVINITY.
(It is not the killing of individuals).
Our Puranas convey this message through various stories!
We need to understand the Thathwam or Philosophy in hidden in the Mythology.
