The Indian Religion





Our Religion.

“I have traveled the world in search of God  to come back home only to find Him.  I found him more abundantly in Hinduism.”  =Rabindranath Tagore.

“Thousands of Years before Abraham received the covenant, Hindu Religion already possessed the core of what is to become. Hindu Religion is measured in millenniums and not centuries like other four  religions.”  =Edward Rice in his book The Five Religions.

“This poem,the Bhagavad Gita deserves the highest respect.” =Immanuel Kent. German Philosopher.

Hu Shih former ambassador of China to USA said:  “India conquered and dominated China culturally and spiritually for two thousand years without ever having to send a single soldier across the border.

The First Manu Satya Vritta  million years ago was self born. The First Manu,Satyavrita and wife Shatrupa had ten sons and a daughter Ela.  He is the author of  the Manu-Smrti. He is the first king, In the great flood, the Matsya Purana recounts how he was warned by the Holy Fish, to whom he had done a kindness, that a flood would destroy the whole of humanity.

In the Mahabharata, the Holy Fish is identified with the Lord Brahma, while in the Puranas, it is Matsya, the first incarnation of the lord Vishnu on this Earth.

He therefore built a boat, when the flood came, he tied this boat to the Holy Fish and the holy snake Vasuki as the rope and  was safely steered to a resting place on the Malaya mountaintop. When the flood receded, Manu, the sole human survivor, performed a sacrifice, pouring oblations of butter and sour milk into the waters. After a year there was born from the waters Lady Shutrupa.  These two then became the ancestors of a new human race to replenish the earth.

The narration of the impending flood and Noha’s ark is a copy of the above.
