She also sent me a hand written thank you note on a hand made card her mother made. in Hawaii we call this type of gesture "aloha". aloha is pure kind hearted actions towards one another, a type of giving from the heart. we in Hawaii still have this special way of living and recognize it in others. |

You westerners have no clue. Spend time reading Hindu scripture once. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27316880 "One day when the sage Atri was performing asceticism with his wife Anasuya, Brahma, Visnu and Siva came to him and offered him a boon. When Atri continued to meditate, the three gods went to Anasuya; Siva had his linga in his hand, Visnu was full of erotic feeling, and Brahma, beside himself with desire, said, 'Make love to me or I will die.' When she heard this coarse speech,Anasuya made no reply, for, although she feared the anger of the gods, she was true to her husband. But the three gods were overcome by delusion, and they raped her by force. Then she became angry, and she cursed Siva to be worshipped as a linga, Brahma to be worshipped as a head, and Visnu to be worshipped as feet, in order to ridicule them all, and she cursed them all to be reborn as her sons. Because of this, Siva was born as urvasas." -- Bhavisya Purana 3:4:17:67-78. [O'Flaherty, Wendy D. The Origins of Evil in Hindu Mythology. Pub.: University of California Press.

Quoting: seer thats so beautifull a custom . You need more of that in the political system. Hawaii is like heaven on earth . It has magic energies all around it . I guess thats why the demons are trying to disturb it with the chemtrails now . Tulasi beliefs are good ones , but I do have a hard time understanding why their young ones like Gabby joined the military and went abroad to illegal wars . In the Hindu or especially Vaisnava codes , one should never engage with a lessor opponenet who is not equal in strength with you in a battle . One should never hide from battle in computer rooms manning the drone sticks , killing . These actions are abhorant to true Vedic warrior principles. |

Reminds me of the story of a guy who died and went to heaven, and Saint Peter is showing him around. They go down a long hallway, and Saint Peter opens a door and there are a whole bunch of people in the room partying, and he says "there's the Hindus." Next door, same thing - "there's the Buddhists." Next door, Saint Peter cautions the man - "be quiet and tiptoe past this door." The man asks why, and Saint Peter replies, "because behind that door is the CHristians, and they think they're the only ones here." |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 27324808 United States 11/08/2012 03:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Last night, Hawaii not only elected Japan-born Mazie Hirono to be the first ever Asian-American woman elected to the Senate, they also elected Democrat Tulsi Gabbard as the first ever practicing Hindu to the US House of Representatives. Hawaii has been declared a Fox News Disaster Zone. Quoting: Mordier L'eft Thirty-one-year-old Gabbard is the daughter of two conservative Hawaii politicians and first ran for office at age 21. After her first term, she voluntarily served on a 12-month tour of duty with Hawaii's National Guard, and then became the first woman in the history of the Accelerated Officer Candidate School at the Alabama Military Academy to be designated a "distinguished honor graduate." When she's sworn in this January, she'll take her oath of office over a Bhagavad Gita, a sacred text for followers of the Vaishnava branch of Hindu. According to HuffPo, Gabbard's favorite verses include, — "That which pervades the entire body you should know to be indestructible. No one is able to destroy that imperishable soul." (2:17) — "The soul can never be cut into pieces by any weapon, nor can he be burned by fire, nor moistened by water, nor withered by the wind."(2.23) [link to jezebel.com] awesome, as long as she doesn't bring her Indian caste system to the west! |

He had his own movement after the split in 1975. He maintained the leadership over the disenchanted ISKCON members in Hawaii even as they formed their own political party. With the departure, the tension between Siddha Svarupa and ISKCON devotees increased, although Siddhaswarupa maintained a cordial relationship with Prabhupada. After the disappearance of Prabhupada (his Gurudev) from this world in 1977, he took the role of diksha (initiating) guru and began to initiate disciples.[29] [30]Since 1977 Siddhaswarupa does not accept that the eleven devotees whom Prabhupada appointed were gurus or acharyas. Having accepted the tile of Jagad Guru (World Master), he sees himself in this lineage of pure but non-appointed devotees.[31][32] |
