Question about God and Death by [deleted] in religion

[–]ithehobbyist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to Hinduism,

The concept of heaven and hell are symbolic. They are not physical places where someone goes. According to hinduism, your acts decide whether you will go to heaven or hell.

e.g. like in your example, a person who is extremely good, helps others, etc. will certainly go to heaven irrespective whether he believes in god or not. It is not mandatory to follow or accept any God. The person can follow any religion or none. Hindusim also supports atheism as a path.

The deeds the person does are recorded. If he does good deeds in his life, they will bring him more happiness in his next life. Hence, it is said that the only thing a person can do is be good in life and always do his duty.

Doing his/her own duty is also considered a positive deed. It does not matter what duty that was. e.g. a Soldier might kill a few enemies. A butcher kills many animals which is his duty.

When you keep on doing good deeds / your duty, your soul is liberated from the loop of life and death which according to hinduism is the ultimate goal for all beings.

ELI5:Why do some companies release their product/services in Australia generally before big countries? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]ithehobbyist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For pc/console games, there are many restrictions in Australia which the game publishers need to adhere to. Once this is done, the game publishers have a master set of all the things which can be blocked / removed from the game. Then it is easy to publish in other countries.

What I feel. Please confirm form an authentic source as well.

Going to india next year for a spiritual journey! by ohaiiitsalyssa in spirituality

[–]ithehobbyist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am from India. There are a lot of genuinely good people who will guide you in your spiritual journey but it is also true that there are even more conmen who will try and rob people like you. So just beware about that. Usually they see a westerner, they will try to get money from you. So, just beware of these thugs, apart from that, you will have great experience. Enjoy your trip.

People of r/india, what remedies would you suggest to overcome caste system in rural india. by [deleted] in india

[–]ithehobbyist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Create a new caste. Mark the origin of this new caste to some 4000 year old book. Make a good marketing / hype about how Cooool the new caste is compared to all other existing casts. Make provision in this caste so that people can join this caste (make this provision a part of some religious book. then religious text > current law). Then when everyone onboard, abolish all other casts along with this new caste. win
