I am a spiritual person but I think I understand the beauty of lifestyle called Hinduism. A lot of people condemn the act of rituals, prayers or religious activities but again they fail to analyse the evolution of such practices. People were uncivilized and religion came as a form of suggestion on a systemized way of living and to instill values, discipline etc. Many of them who do not pray condemns those who pray and these people are very selfish indeed because the hours spent by people praying, affirming positive thoughts and wishing for the well being of family, self and community is better as it is a positive activity to do during the free time. Think about it, it is certainly a better way to divert the mind and to re-channel your intentions than visiting places that can contribute to your illness/weaknesses. Of course I condemn religious fanatics and religious people with Holier-than-thou attitude and judge people who do not pray as bad. You may pray and you may not want to pray, but let people with their ways. A lot of rituals are done to unite the community, society and the family together-promoting togetherness but sadly it has become a factor to divide all of us due to ignorance of certain quarter.......
