Religion Zonder History

Religion without history. How is your religious life if religion history abolished? Can you become a Hindu without former Maharsi accepting vision ( sruti) Veda? Without Bharata Yudha holly war then bear the Bhagavad Gita?

No one knows the birth of Hinduism history. There is telling, this religion was started 3000 BC, 6000 BC and so on. In general it is known to come from Sindhu, name a river which split the plain Indus. While aborigin more recognizing it by the name of Dharma, Sanathana Dharma or endless truth. Most western people do not know that it is a non-stoped rule which is grow and expand. Its teaching passed of religion doctrines. Whether I am polytheism follower, trust one deity, trust or unconvinced moksha, believing all principle or only one, I am still a Hindu. Not more, do not less.

Hinduism, then recognized, is way of life, the eldest religion which is stand live and let live the latter incoming religion.

Dharma adherent, believing Hinduism without beginning and never ending. It is permanently. For now and forever. As Dharma getting through space and time, Hinduism not shoulder the history burden as long as its life. It is not base on a Maharsi, historical human being, or any historical books. Hindu will linger with all Maharsi in this modern-day, owning Veda as it was.

Rajiv Malhotra, a intellectual Hindu own personal experience the similar thing to others religion. He throw the opinion History Centrism and non History Centrism. Moslem Community which we meet possible will say there will be no Islam without Muhammad attendance to the world, as Christian cannot grow and expand without Christ sacrifice. Rajiv classify this as History Centrism.

History, is our perception now about past for the kindliness of future. Fossil, science can become its object. But in a confidence, specially Hindu, it differ. A Hindu will feel lucky because he own the long history in the past, with its figures, tattwa, ethic, upakara without lessen the appreciation to all modern Guru (teacher). Hindu not only an object but also can become historical subject, as well as all Hindu believe, each and everyone can reach enlightenment in this life and even further alter history.

There is a human being suffering amnesia, effect of accident. He is 19 years old. Cannot remember the family, Iesson, and all his past, he then feel strange in the new situation. Whether he still human being? If yes, is it possible for him to rewrite his history life?

We proud own the figure in the past such as: Badarayana, Jaimini, Gautama, Canadian, Patanjali, Sankara, Ramanuja, Ramakrishna, Vivekananda, Sri Aurobindi, Mahatma Gandhi, as well as our grateful today own all guru namely : Tejomayananda, Chest Vaswani, Sai Indonesian Chinese Father, Shri Ramesh Bhai Oza, dsbnya. Nobody holding authority for Hinduism and disregard the other.
All teacher, modern swami, is our life text. We can learn the good life and history from them. Till then we can write our own history.

History, in the end become something that good to be owned, without compulsion to own it. Hindu is Hindu, though history and book of it lost or eliminated.
Thus, Hinduism is non History Centrism.

Religion for the human being

I indebted to a lot of party taking role oppose against all priest. Feurbach, through his criticism:
" Not God creating human being, but God is creation of human being day-dream." God, religion and whole its accessories don't have the fact of itself, but picture formed by human being about themselves. But later, human being forget that day-dream is its creation. Look like criticism to fetish, human being made the idol, then worship it as deity"

Marx, getting clarification through criticism Feurbach then continue : " The human being making religion, not religion making human being. Religion is realization of human being day-dream, as sign that human being not yet succeeded to realize themselves. Religion is existing human being strangeness from themselves"

In the middle of frenzied people who waste on the money for the pride of ritual religion, war on behalf of religion, or deeply worship the God and hope far from hell fire, I start to think the human being for the religion? or Religion for the human being?

Then, how if hell, heaven, or even God is there is no? if religion which during the time we believe is big falsehood ?
You please continue these questions by yourself. I will not go on to. I only try to think why I believe in? One, I believe in because taught and a little forced by family ( biology). Second, because environment and government through "its sets of equipments" geld the people rights being atheist ( sociology) . Third, and this which I feel now, becoming religious man is not bad
( individual).

I tell is not bad, personal for me. In reality I can assess the people believe in is bad if human being become the religion slave. Human being become the appliance from all hypocrisy priest, religion become the tranquilizer for citizen to bow to the government which again work along with all religion authority. Religion is bad if it contains dislike values, egocentric, and ruination for other religion follower. Religion is bad if its God is sword, money, pride among humanity grief.

Religion is not bad for me, if there is no one who decapitated, head dismembered, burned alive, circumcised its confidence because of differentiation. Religion become good for me, if religion only way, my choice, or I found it to realize myself. My religion not your religion because we are different. But me and you can coexist, as human being esteeming nature. Last, God ? Maybe in edge of street maybe not, but natural law will teach us that anything proceed. You and I can differ the view about God personal or impersonal, there is or there is no God. Altogether possible. It is not bad for me, as long as religion for the human being, not human for the religion.
