Benefits of living as a Hindu
- Joy Mathew, Kerala movie actor
_No need to go to learn religion from childhood.
_No strict rules on what to do, what not to do, or how to live...
_No need to wear a cap...
No need for circumcision...
No need to get baptized...
_No need to wake up early and go to the temple... Only those with faith need to go.
_When you feel like going, you can go to any temple without checking caste, language, or worship rituals.
_Even if you go or don’t go, the temple priest or committee members won’t glare at you...
_Won’t be branded as someone without fear of God... Won’t be excommunicated... Won’t be condemned to a “rogue’s grave” when dead...
_No need for a good conduct certificate from religious heads to get married...
No need for recommendation letters...
_No one goes to the temple to inquire “what kind of guy he is”... The bride’s family won’t check if he’s a religious believer...
_No one checks if the girl is a religious believer, a “916 Hindu”, or lives by Hindu customs...
_You can live peacefully with one or two children as you wish.
_Since there’s no ban on drinking alcohol, no need to go crazy using ganja or drugs.
_You can watch movies, dance, sing — with no restrictions.
_You can lend money at interest, or borrow it.
_You can vote for anyone, live however you want... no rules...
_No scaring about the afterlife.
_No need to waste a lifetime dreaming of rivers of wine and hooris. No need to fear being made firewood in hell...
_From creation to the structure of the universe — nothing here is against modern science.
_If you have time and study the Vedas, you can answer any atheist’s question.
_No separate laws for women...
No special prohibitions for women...
_If a woman dances, no crowd will gather to abuse her... They’ll clap and encourage her...
_From childhood, send her for dance... send her for music... send her for sports...
_No need to cover the face or head. Can wear clothes of choice...
_No separate dining area for her... No bans in crowds... no rules... no prohibitions...
_You can pray to the God of any religion. Can hang a star, set up a crib, celebrate any festival,
_Even if you don’t get them in return, you can send Christmas, Easter, Eid, Nabi Day wishes to friends. No one will question you;
_And you don’t have to fear anyone to share this!
Pleasant, beautiful, peaceful, free... Life as you like!!
_If asked “Do you have a religion?” — Yes... If asked “Don’t you have a religion?” — No.
Missed one thing...
No need to fight for a spot in the cemetery for the funeral... Just need some firewood.
