Just a question. I’m a 25M. Years ago, my grandmother gifted me a gold necklace with an Om on it. I’ve always worn it around my neck until I met some people who told me I shouldn’t wear an Om around my neck while drinking alcohol, or eating meat as it would be considered disrespect. (I don’t eat beef or pork ever, but they mean’t other meat as well). Interested in opinions here. I’ve had this chain on since 2017, and it has broken off my neck a few times recently and... 3 3 replies

Gods So I'm pagan, and in the religion I practice, we tend to 'work' with a few gods or goddesses (ie someone might be devoted to Apollo and Athena ) but not necessarilya while pantheon. I've been interested in Hinduism for quite some time, and I really love reading about Radha and Kali in particular, but I'm wondering if it's possible to be devoted only to those two deities without also worshipping other gods or identifying entirely as Hindu. I've always been very eclectic, having worked with numerous celtic, roman,... 5 2 replies

Multiversal speculation And who will search through the wide infinities of space to count the universes side by side, each containing its Brahma, its Vishnu, its Shiva? Who can count the Indras in them all--those Indras side by side, who reign at once in all the innumerable worlds; those others who passed away before them; or even the Indras who succeed each other in any given line, ascending to godly kingship, one by one, and, one by one, passing away. — Brahma Vaivarta Purana There are many other large worlds, rolling through... 2 0 replies

Is it true that the success of a Vedic Homa is dependent on accuracy more than faith? My understanding is this. If there are three people, one believes that the different devas mentioned in the Vedas are different deities. Another person believes that the different devas mentioned are different names of the same supreme entity. And the third person has no opinion about this topic. The success of the homa will depend on if they follow the process accurately, and not whether they believe in one God or many. The success of the homa is fully dependent on the accuracy of the process, and not faith.... 5 0 replies
