Long time no SEE!

Hi All,

Its been long time I commented on my blog, but will try to have a regular habit now! Post some social comments soon! Just few minutes back I commented on Mudita's blog and it geared me to write on mine too:)

She has posted some comment on Jainism. Adding my views on the same:

All Religions were based on some scientific cause and we human beings have distorted it as per our convenience. Being born in jain family, I hardly know about Jainism rituals...in childhood used to visit jain temple once a year (as lived in Hind Motors, suburbs of Kolkata). But when got married and shifted to Indore I was shocked ...the cultural difference and the SHOW off are immense! Conducting rallies on marked days, Boli during Pajusan, saints (specially female saints) engaging house wives in all religious activities during Chau masa and then collecting all the gossips about the area seems mere waste of time to me. I don’t know commenting about them will be good or bad, but since this blog has given me a nice platform to do so…I would like to share it (sorry if it hurts anyone’s feelings).

Few days back heard about a family having five daughters and all daughters eventually took Diksha. Reason was the mother didn’t have enough money to get them married so they were asked to take up Diksha. It was bought in their minds from childhood so all daughters accepted it willingly! So how will you comment on this! Is being born as a girl child such a burden to family! And Does this was preached by Mahavira?? I am not a strict follower of Jainism. I just believe in a supreme power GOD! But how much I can really understand is Jainism has nothing to do with compulsion and force. Its all about peace, wisdom and prosperity!!
