EXPOSING HINDU RELIGION
The purpose of this page is not to attack religion. The intention is to expose the betrayal of truth and also the injustice to human
dignity in the name of religion.
1. PUNISHMENT
FOR LOW CASTE HINDUS
The tongue of a Shudra, who spoke evil about a BRAHMIN should be
cut off. A Shudra who dared to assume a position of equality with
the first three castes was to be flogged. (Apastambha Darma Sutra
III, 10-26)
If a Shudra overheard a recitation of the Vedas, molten tin was
to be poured into his ears; if he repeated the Vedas his tongue
should be cut and if he remembered Vedic hymns, his body was to
be torn into pieces.
If a Shudra arrogantly teaches Brahmins Dharma, the king shall
cause hot oil to be poured into his mouth and ears. (Manusmirthi
167-272)
2. THE WEALTHY BRAHMINS
Brahmins should not be taxed and should be maintained by the
State. (Manusmirthi, 7-133)
That no collection of wealth was to be made by a Shudra, even
though he may be capable, for a Shudra who has acquired wealth
would pain a Brahmin, and that Brahmins may appropriate by force
the property of the Shudra. (Manusmirthi, 10-129)
Even if a Shudra acquired wealth, he must always remain a slave.
His main job is to wash the feet of the higher caste. (Panchvanish
Brahmin, 3-1/11)
Even if a Shudra is learned and virtuous, he should not be given
respect and honour. (Tulsidas in his Ramayana)
Slavery is inborn among the Shudras and no one can free them from
it. (Manusmirthi, Chapter 8, Sloka 4, 14)
Sri Brahmin had intended from eternity that the Untouchables
should be born slaves, live as slaves, and die as slaves. (Manusmirthi,
Chpater 19, Sloka 413)
3. LITERACY
shravana, adhyana, arthapratishedhat smriteh ca (Brahma-Sutras
1.3.9.38)
Meaning:
The smrithi orderes that shudras must be prohibited from hearing,
studying and understanding the Vedas.
4. FROM RAMAYANA
MEAT-EATING RAMA: When God Rama was
told to go to the forest, he mournfully revealed to his mother:
It has been ordained that I have to lose the kingdom, forego the
princely comforts and the tasty MEAT-DISHES. (Ayodhya Kandam,
Chapters 20, 26 and 94)
RAMA'S MANY WIVES: In Mr. C.R. SreenivasaIyengar's
translation of Valmiki Ramayan, it says:
Though Rama had married Sita to be the queen, he marrried many
other wives for sexual pleasure in accordance with the royal
customs. (Ayodhya Kandam, Chapter 8, Page 28)
RAMA'S DISRESPECT FOR HIS FATHER: Rama called
his father "a FOOL, an IDIOT" (Ayodhya Kandam, Chapter
53)
RAMA'S CONTEMPT FOR WOMEN & LOW CASTES: Rama
said "Women should not be trusted" and that "Secrets
should not be confided to the wife". (Ayodhya Kandam,
Chapter 100)
Sambuka was slaim by Rama because he was making penance which was
forbidden to him by Vedas as he was a Shudra. (Uttara
Kandam, Chapter 76)
SITA: As soon as Sita stepped into Ravan's
palace, her love towards Ravan grew more. (Aranya Kandam, Chapter
54).
When at length Rama asked Sita to swear about her chastity, she
declined and died. (Uttar Kandam, Chapter 97)
PORNOGRAPHY: Rama's description of Sita's beauty
which is lewdly detailed (refer to C.R. SrinivasaIyengar's
translation of Aranya Kandam, Chapter 46)
In Kiskind Kandam, Rama explains to Lakshmana of his sexual
experience with Sita
According to Ramayana, the Aryans (Brahmins) used to drink liquor
(nine different kinds), eat meat, marry many wives and
prostitution was an accepted way of life amongst the priests and
gods.
Ramayana also recounts the story of King Dasharatha who, in order
to have a baby son, made a big sacrifice (yaham) of sheep, cattle,
horses, birds and snakes. He then delivered his three wives
Kaushaliya, Sumatirai and Kaikeyi to three priests. These holy
men, having fully satisfied their carnal desire, returned the
ladies to the King. By this means, the King was able to have
three sons - Ram, Lakshman and Bharat. (Bala Kandam, Chapter 14)
The Ramayan tells us much about the unlawful relationship of
incest. It is not appropriate to put the details in this page.
Please refer to Aranya Kandom, Chapter 45, Verses 122, 123, 124
& 125.
5. NON-VEGETARIAN FOOD
The eater who eats the flesh of those to be eaten does nothing
bad, even if he does it day after day, for God himself created
some to be eaten and some to be eater. (Manusmirthi, Chapter 5,
Verse 30)
Eating meat is right for the sacrifice, this is traditionally
known as a rule of the gods. (Manusmrithi, Chapter 5, Verse 31)
God himself created sacrificial animals for sacrifice, ....,
therefore killing in a sacrifice is not killing. (Manusmrithi,
Chapter 5, Verse 39 & 40)
MAHABHARATA, Anushashan Parva chapter 88 narrates the discussion
between Dharmaraj Yudhishthira and Pitamah Bhishma about what
food one should offer to Pitris (ancestors) during the Shraddha (ceremony
of dead) to keep them satisfied. Paragraph reads as follows:
"Yudhishthira said, "O thou of great puissance, tell me
what that object is which, if dedicated to the Pitiris (dead
ancestors), become inexhaustible! What Havi, again, (if offered)
lasts for all time? What, indeed, is that which (if presented)
becomes eternal?"
"Bhishma said, "Listen to me, O Yudhishthira, what
those Havis are which persons conversant with the rituals of the
Shraddha (the ceremony of dead) regard as suitable in view of
Shraddha and what the fruits are that attach to each. With sesame
seeds and rice and barely and Masha and water and roots and
fruits, if given at Shraddhas, the pitris, O king, remain
gratified for the period of a month. With fishes offered at
Shraddhas, the pitris remain gratified for a period of two months.
With the mutton they remain gratified for three months and with
the hare for four months, with the flesh of the goat for five
months, with the bacon (meat of pig) for six months, and with the
flesh of birds for seven. With venison obtained from those deer
that are called Prishata, they remaingratified for eight months,
and with that obtained from the Ruru for nine months, and with
the meat of Gavaya for ten months, With the meat of the bufffalo
their gratification lasts for eleven months. With beef presented
at the Shraddha, their gratification, it is said, lasts for a
full year. Payasa mixed with ghee is as much acceptable to the
pitris as beef. With the meat of Vadhrinasa (a large bull) the
gratification of pitris lasts for twelve years. the flesh of
rhinoceros, offered to the pitris on anniversaries of the lunar
days on which they died, becomes inexhaustible. The potherb
called Kalaska, the petals of kanchana flower, and meat of (red)
goat also, thus offered, prove inexhaustible.
So but natural if you want to keep your ancestors satisfied
forever, you should serve them the meat of red goat.
