I hope you are not offended, its just an open discussion.
I think its more to do with cultural and upbringing rather than religion, in some cases. And generalising this is immature. And let us live in reality and in not dillusion, religious followers and non-followers are here to stay as long as there is life on earth. Is swami ji not doing the same thing of opposing other religious philosphies.
How are you going to tackle the religions ? i guess, by eliminating each religious followers from this mother earth... I just visited your website full of misinterpretations as far as sikhism is concerned and shockingly could not found anything enlightening to my mind but swami ji opposing all religions and creating his own religion of No Religion. How does his philosophy any different if only thing he says is oppose others philosophy.
What kind of harmony are you talking about ? i guess keeping on following rituals when there is no logical explanation to it. What kind of opposition you are talking about ? Does opposing sati pratha, caste system, advising against taking tobacco (Europian Union recently declared a ruling of banning tobacco consumption for certain age group) or advocating for gender equality, does that amount to creating disharmony ? I think keeping on allowing such tradtitions lurking in our community is a useless harmony.
Fighting for freedom of others is creating disharmony OR does keeping on tolerating the atrocities by other fellow being means living in harmony ? We need to be more realistic.
"If all the religions of the world were in harmony each other, there would have been one religion, but since they all oppose each other there is one true religion." Swami Dayanand
Vijay Singh ji could you share your personal thoughs about what this above statement wants us to convey. I find this statement nothing but simple ignorance, generalising one phenomemon without searching it from every perspective is not a hallmark of a good philosopher or thinker.
We will continue.
