  • Religion is the opium of masses
    Learn to distinguish between religion and philosophy.
  • Can we consider Hindi as a link language of Hindus of India?

  • Can we consider Hindi as a link language of Hindus of India?

    But among Indian languages Bengali has more no. of speakers in the world than Hindi or any other Indian language!

    So why not Bengali as a link language?

    @तोता पुरी

    once you acknowledge the fundamental unity of languages there is no such need. Latent impulses(something akin to Dogs aligning themselves to magnetic pole before taking a piss) will take care of the rest.

  • Tota raat KO sone se pehle kaunsi maarte Ho yaar?? Zyada mat liya karo yaar..apni capacity ka bhi much khayal rakho..
  • Religion is the opium of masses
    Marxism is hashish of classes!

    Winston Churchil famously said Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.

    In the name of socialism we all know what Stalin did, know what Mao did. The thing is our text book tell us only about Hitler.


    I do not accept this notion that religions are altogether bad..usually modern theorist forget the great role religion played in pacifying the extraordinarily violent tribal society. It was religion which brought peace and established order in perpetually blood-soaked tribal society! Thing is that every institution gets frozen in time and needs to be constantly refined and reoriented according to the contemporary needs! This is where most of the religions fail but it doesn't make religions altogether bad.

    At the same time I do also believe Marxism is second most important thing occurred to humanity after religion.

    My point is anything which has occupied so vast mind-space of billions of humans for centuries can not just be a hogwash or just a figment of imagination. We need to contexualize these ideologies and institutions in historical relevance instead of arriving at any judgemental position in haste!

    Who was Churchill in front of Marx.Get someone on the level of Marx first.
    Quoting Churchill to counter Marx is like midgets talking about Giants.
    :P

    If steps start yearning for equality, there will never be any ascent!

    The steps that ascents , also descents. i think you miss that point all together :P

    There has and always been a deep connection between physics and philosophy, because both at some point dwell into a common domain. Vedantic philosophy is just something physicists like, because it is another philosophy. So nothing especially cool about it.
    I would not like to indulge in counter commenting.
