There is talk of "this age" in the Gospel. The Book Of Isaiah vividly describes the next age, one of peace and prosperity. An age is a span of time that lasts several thousand years. The current age has gone on for over 5,000 years. Hinduism tells you what the four ages are, and that they are cyclical. This is the Kali Yuga, the age of great sin, when humanity has walked away the furthest from God. The next age is the Satya Yuga, the age of truth, when humanity is in great harmony with God, when human capacity for spiritual knowledge is 100 times greater than it is today.
The Bible is scripture. How? Because it contains prophecies, and prophecies are proof of God, that there is a Being who is all-knowing, and all-powerful, and ever and everywhere present. That is why you can pray anywhere.
So if there is another book, or several other books, that also contain prophecies, those books are also scripture. There are Hindu scriptures.
NASA engineers today (non-Hindus, white folks) with their knowledge of modern astronomy will tell you the pattern of the night sky never repeats, and that is why the night sky is the best calendar there is. You could describe the night sky tonight, and someone could read that 10,000 years from now, and if they had the knowledge, they could tell the precise date for today.
Every major event in the Mahabharata and the Ramayana come with immaculate descriptions of the night sky. When you put those descriptions into NASA software, you come to know the Mahabharata is from about 5,000 years ago, and the Ramayana is from about 7,000 years ago. According to the Hindu belief system the Mahabharata is from the previous age, the Dwapar Yuga, and the Ramayana is from the age before that, the Treta Yuga. Leading characters in the Mahabharata were told about what people will do to each other in this age, the Kali Yuga, by Lord Krishna, Lord God the Holy Father in human incarnation. People will kill each other and not even know why, He said. Those leading characters were in disbelief. Can human beings treat each other so badly? They asked.
Similarly, it is hard for people in this age to believe the events described in the Ramayana and the Mahabharata.
Kashi, also known as Varanasi/Venaras, is the oldest continuous city in the world that has remained untouched during wave after wave of colonization in the past thousand years. Non-Hindu scientists date the city to be about 10,000 years old. It was founded in the last Satya Yuga by the disciples of Shiva, the Holy Spirit.
Lord Rama was born to a woman. Lord Krishna was born to a woman. The Buddha was born to a woman. Jesus was born to a woman. Lord Kalki has been born to a woman. But Shiva simply descended from heaven somewhere in the Himalayas in the dhyana mudra, meditation pose. Hundreds of people surrounded Him. That went on for months. Who is He? Where did He come from? Why does He not open His eyes? Slowly people left. Only seven remained. Then He opened His eyes. Those became his seven disciples. The Sapta Rishis, the seven sages.
He said He wanted to teach. The seven bombarded Him with questions. All of those questions were to do with this physical world, the material world. He yawned. He said, this entire universe I can fit into a mustard seed. I am not here to teach you about this world. I am here to impart spiritual knowledge.
All your science and technology is one mustard seed.
It is said, what Shiva taught the seven sages was 100 times more than what The Buddha taught his disciples about 2,500 years ago. Some people say, that means Shiva was 100 times smarter than The Buddha. No. There is no limit to Shiva's knowledge. Just like there is no limit to The Buddha's knowledge.
Lord God the Holy Father Vishnu, known as Yahweh by the Jews, came to earth as Rama, then as Krishna, then as The Buddha, and is now back as Lord Kalki. He is here to answer the Christian prayer Thy Kingdom Come. He is the long-awaited Messiah of the Jews.
No character in the Mahabharata or the Ramayana is called Hindu. Hindu is the name the British coined for people thought to have originated around the River Indus, known locally as Sindhu. Just like the word India is a British name. Everest is a British name. India's Indian name is Bharat. That Bharat will rename itself Kalkistan after Lord Kalki. That is a prophecy, soon to be fulfilled. 11 prophecies from 5,000-year-old scriptures have come true in Lord Kalki.
The Jews say the Messiah they have been waiting for will bring peace and prosperity to every corner on earth. The roadmap for that peace and prosperity is out in public. The book is called The Kalkiist Manifesto. It is going to be the last book of economics on earth.
Money is the most mentioned word in the Gospels. Why? Because that is how this age started. Arjuna was the top warrior on all earth in the Mahabharata. His son was Abhimanyu. Abhimanyu's son was King Parikshit. The Kali Purush, known as Satan, or The Devil, by Christians and Muslims, approached him and said, "O king, give me some space where to live."
"Where do you want to live?"
"In money and gold, in gambling......."
His wish was granted and this age of great sin, the Kali Yuga, began. That is why the way to end this age is to create a moneyless society. That is what the Kalkiist Manifesto says.
All religions born in this age will end with this age. Primary school will soon be over. Human capacity for spiritual knowledge in the next age will be 100 times greater. "God is about to say something new." It has been said in the Bible.
In the Gospel at one point Jesus says, "You can not read time." As in, you don't seem to have the ability. Those who can read the night sky can read time. Those have existed. Some of those exist today. Many more of those will exist in the next age.
In the Gospel Jesus says, this much information is all I will give you now, this is all you can handle. As in, more will be given to you later. That later will soon happen. In the new age, "God is about to say something new."
Hinduism's relevance today is that it is in the Sanatana Dharma that we find templates for spiritual knowledge for the last three ages, and nowhere else.
In heaven there is no religion. Because in heaven the angels, the small g gods and goddesses of the Hindu belief system, can feel God's direct presence. There is no need for religion when you can feel God's direct presence.

Theological Divergences with Christianity, Judaism, and Hinduism: A Comparative Overview
Religion, at its core, seeks to answer questions of existence, purpose, and the divine. While Islam shares historical and cultural ties with both Christianity and Judaism—its Abrahamic siblings—it also engages in theological dialogue and disagreement with religions outside that family, such as Hinduism. Understanding these disagreements is crucial for interfaith respect and global religious literacy.
๐ Islam vs. Christianity: Theological Divergences
Nature of God and the Trinity
Islam is uncompromisingly monotheistic. It rejects the Christian concept of the Trinity (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) as a violation of Tawhid, the absolute oneness of God. For Muslims, associating partners with God (shirk) is the gravest sin.
Jesus Christ’s Identity
Islam acknowledges Jesus (Isa) as a prophet, born of the Virgin Mary and the Messiah to the Children of Israel. However, it emphatically denies:
His divinity,
That he is the "Son of God",
The crucifixion and resurrection (Islam teaches he was not crucified but was taken up by God),
The concept of original sin and vicarious atonement through Jesus’ sacrifice.
Scripture and Revelation
Muslims regard the Qur’an as the final and uncorrupted revelation from God, superseding earlier scriptures such as the Bible, which Islam considers altered over time.
Salvation and Intercession
Islam teaches that salvation comes through belief in God, righteous deeds, prayer, fasting, charity, and God's mercy—not through the intercession of any savior.
๐ Islam vs. Judaism: Theological Divergences
Prophethood and Revelation
While both believe in many of the same prophets (Abraham, Moses, David, etc.), Islam believes Muhammad is the final prophet, the "Seal of the Prophets," and that the Qur’an is God's final word. Judaism does not accept Muhammad’s prophethood or the divine origin of the Qur’an.
Jesus and Muhammad
Jews reject Jesus as the Messiah and divine figure, as do Muslims (in terms of divinity). However, Muslims also affirm Jesus' prophethood, which Judaism does not. More critically, Judaism completely rejects Muhammad’s role as a prophet, while this is central to Islam.
Law and Continuity
Judaism holds the Torah and Jewish law (halakha) as binding. Islam believes that the Jewish scriptures were originally divine but were altered, and thus have been abrogated by the Qur’an and Islamic law (sharia).
Chosen People vs. Ummah
Judaism emphasizes a covenant with a particular people—Israel. Islam universalizes the message and considers the global Muslim community (ummah) as God's chosen path, emphasizing unity beyond ethnicity.
๐ Islam vs. Hinduism: Theological Divergences
Monotheism vs. Polytheism (or Monism)
Islam is strictly monotheistic and iconoclastic. It opposes the worship of idols or images. Hinduism, though more complex, includes polytheistic traditions, monistic philosophies (Advaita Vedanta), and idol worship (Murti Puja), all of which Islam strongly rejects.
Concept of God
In Islam, God (Allah) is a singular, personal, transcendent creator. In Hinduism, God can be:
Personal (Krishna, Shiva),
Impersonal (Brahman),
Manifest in multiple forms simultaneously.
Islam sees this multiplicity as theological error and shirk (association with God).
Reincarnation and Karma
Islam teaches a linear view of life: one life, followed by judgment, then paradise or hell. Hinduism teaches cyclical rebirth (samsara) governed by karma. Islam flatly rejects reincarnation.
Scriptural and Ritual Differences
Islamic scripture is centered on the Qur’an and Hadith, with a focus on strict monotheism and prophetic traditions. Hindu scriptures include the Vedas, Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, and epics like the Ramayana—none of which Islam recognizes as divine.
Caste vs. Equality
Islam promotes the idea that all humans are equal before God, regardless of lineage or social class. While many reformist Hindus oppose casteism today, traditional Hindu society was deeply stratified, which Islam critiques as unjust.
๐ Conclusion: Unity Through Understanding
Islam’s theological disagreements with Christianity, Judaism, and Hinduism reflect deep, principled distinctions about the nature of God, scripture, human destiny, and religious authority. Yet, alongside these divergences, there are shared values: devotion, ethics, community, and the quest for meaning. Understanding these differences not to win arguments but to build mutual respect is essential in a pluralistic world.
In an age of rising polarization, such theological clarity—rooted in knowledge, not prejudice—is a prerequisite for coexistence.
Jerusalem is where three major world religions meet: Judaism, Islam, Christianity. A lot of people don’t see it that way, but Kathmandu is its own kind of Jerusalem. Two major world religions meet in Kathmandu. Buddhism and Hinduism. Jerusalem is also easier to understand because people not getting along is as obvious as can be. In Kathmandu outwardly Hinduism and Buddhism co-exist like no two religions anywhere on the planet. But do they really? Buddhism is an egalitarian religion. All human beings are not only equal, there is no other way possible. Hinduism and its caste system are not one and the same, but by now who can tell the difference? They co-exist like meat and bone. The caste hierarchy is like a body organ to a Bramhin. Preaching egalitarian thoughts is quite literally blasphemy. What makes things more complicated is the agitating Madhesis did not become Buddhist just like Jews did not become Christian, although Buddha was born one of their own. The agitating Madhesis are caste people and the top leaders of the movement don’t get along because they are from different caste backgrounds. Otherwise the political agenda is the same, and there are not really any major personality clashes. So the Brahmins in Kathmandu say, if I don’t have to even explain this to you, since you are big on caste yourself, how hard is it for you to understand that I have decided upon a second class citizenship for you? How is that any different from the caste system both you and I agree with anyways? Not only two major world religions meet in Kathmandu, two other are right at the heels. Islam is not small in the Madhesh, and Christianity is the fastest growing religion in Nepal, giving the Brahmins nightmares, like Islam is the fastest growing religion in America, and for the same reason. The oppressed are walking out in both places.
Kathmandu is home to two major world religions who are at peace but can not really be because the two social structures are like metal and glass. And Kathmandu, or rather Nepal, is a confluence of five major world civilizations. That there is no civil war is a miracle. The religions might take some of the credit. Because it’s not literacy, it’s not the per capita income, it’s not roads, it’s not bridges.
Maybe there will be peace in Kathmandu, and the same peace template can then be taken over to Jerusalem. Via Kashmir.
For now the question circulating around in Kathmandu is, if the Madhesis don’t have problems with the caste system, why do they have problems with being second class citizens?
India and China have both avoided micro interferences in Nepal not because they fear Nepal -- it is a small country -- but because they fear Jerusalem. Every major power in modern history has thrown the kitchen sink at Jerusalem, and it has stayed intractable. Both India and China stay informed, but the level of micro management that Delhi gets accused of in Kathmandu, if there is truth to it, Delhi has the most efficient bureaucracy on the planet.
The Hindus, or some of them, broke the Hindu society through a forceful imposition of the caste system. They did such a thorough job for a few hundred years, that they were basically begging to be invaded. There was nothing to invade. You just had to walk in. The Hindu society was so broken up.
The caste system is still intact today. The Hindus could still get invaded by the Americans and the Chinese. Only the creation of a casteless Hinduism will give India the backbone to stand firm. The creation of a casteless Hinduism should be the top project of the RSS. Hire a hundred poets to come up with Bachchan like last names. And “convert.” Get people to adopt these new last names.
Otherwise FlipKart is already owned 80% by non Indian investors. That is the new East India Company knocking at the door. It is already inside the house. The Americans and the Chinese are just waiting to swoop in through the digital doors. You could keep your borders and your army and still get hollowed out. So dangerous is the Hindu caste system. Buddhism is egalitarian. Mass conversion to Buddhism might be another option.
Technically speaking, the Ramcharitamanas, or the Kambaramayanam, are all just regional remakes of the original, Valmiki's Ramayana. These might have minor tweaks here and there, but the crux is the same, the story is the same. ..... this is the reason stories like Ramayana when written in various regional languages by Tulsidas, Kamban, Krittivasan, are adapted so as to appeal to the people from the respective regions .... For instance,
in the Ramcharitamanas, there is no mention of Lava Kusa in the Uttara Kanda. When Rama asks Sita to go to the forest, to put to an end the gossip of his subjects, Tulasidas who views Sita as more than a mother and is unable to put her through the tortures of the forest in his version, so he makes Sita call for her Mother, the Earth right away, and Rama, unable to live away from Sita, leaves his mortal body right there.
........ a major deviation from the Valmiki's Ramayana ...... there is this beautiful romanticizing of the Rama-Sita swayamvara in the Kamba Ramayana, where Kamban famously says "Annan-um nokkinaar, aval-um nokkinaal." (Older brother proceeded, she followed suit! (with legs, eyes, multiple meanings) It's a beautiful one-line love-story of Rama-Sita (Kamban always referred to Rama as an older brother in his version), before the actual swayamvara, wherein it talks about how Sita following her glimpse of Rama, prays to Shiva to get Rama to break the Shivdhanush. Small additions like this to the storyline, makes it more beautiful to read, and this is something that is definitely encouraged in literature.
Yadavs have no caste. Yadavs are not Brahmin. Yadavs are not Chhatriya. Yadavs are not Vaishya. Yadavs are not Sudras. And they are large in number. They dominate the Hindi belt in India.
The question, is the Hindu religion possible without the caste system, it is not even a question. Of course it is possible.
It is not a coincidence that the only form of Hinduism that is out there in any missionary position is the one that flows straight out of Krishna, who is considered the Founding Father of the Yadavs. The Hare Rama Hare Krishna people are out there preaching. When you join, you simply become a Hindu, you have no caste. You read out of the Geeta, the crown jewel of the Hindu worldview.
But just like the Brahmins annihilated Buddhists from the subcontinent, they also tried to annihilate the Yadavs. They did manage to in Gujrat, where Krishna was from, where Gandhi was from, where Modi is from. Both Gandhi and Modi are caste Hindus.
Caste Hindus think of religion as geography. They don't feel, there are a billion Chinese, if I can get half of them that will be 500 million more Hindus. They don't care which way the Chinese go. They feel everyone on the subcontinent was once a Hindu, and so any deviation that happened anywhere along the way needs to be corrected. Which makes for amazingly intolerant, obnoxious behavior, like asking Muslims to "come back."
Bramhins are weird. They are supposed to be these learned people, people of the book, but they also have been the most mercilessly bloodthirsty. They have killed like it was nobody's business.
Yadavs also seem to be able to form political alliances with Muslims rather easily. Neither the Muslims nor the Yadavs are part of the caste framework. They have nothing to break out of first.
But I don't see any Yadav in Bollywood. Maybe the good looks stopped after Krishna, who was supposed to have had a thousand girlfriends. Laloo ne sab jagah aarakshan lagoo karvaya, Bollywood shayad bhool gaye.
It is mind over matter. Chinese communists are matter people. They build roads and bridges. They are so good, there is no more road or bridge to build in China, that is why they are going to Pakistan. The hammer needs a nail. Or it will rust. It is not exactly goodwill.
The Dalai Lama is a mind person. Buddhism is not religion, it is science. It is a science that passes for religion. It is a science that does not mind being called religion.
The brain is body. The brain is matter. The mind is mind.
Buddhism is a science of the mind. There are plenty of sciences that deal with the brain and even mind. But Buddhism is the only that deals exclusively with the mind. It does not deal with food, for example. You want food? Go beg, Buddhism says. The Chinese say (or said) grab the landlord's land, by any means necessary.
Military conquests can not bother the mind. It can damage or even destroy the brain. But the mind is mind. After all, the Buddha himself created the world’s first republic by sheer mind power. He was so effective at evaporating the caste hierarchies of the Hindu cobweb, you see Buddhists in Tibet, in China, in Thailand, even Sri Lanka, but not in India, not in Bihar, not in Gujrat where he died (left the body), not in his hometown where he was born. The Bramhins had to physically eliminate. Totally annihilate. They had to destroy the body and the brain because they were so utterly incapable of confronting the mind. The Chinese have not come even remotely close. The Chinese can only dream about what the Bramhins did. And they did it with primitive tools where you had to see blood before your eyes while you took the life. Tibetans have not diminished in number. The religion is more or less intact. And they don’t much care about taxation, and the railway.
Mind over matter.
The Dalai Lama has the solution to China’s Tibet problem. He is the only one who has. And the Chinese should take it while he is still alive, or they might not have a solution for 200 years. The solution is for the Dalai Lama to visit Tibet and China. The Chinese government may take care of the logistics. The Dalai Lama does not mind. What train he rides in, what lodge he spends the night in. All that is matter. He does not mind. The solution is for the Chinese to welcome the Dalai Lama into the country and take him everywhere he wants to go. The trip could last a year. It might last for the rest of his life. Let him be. He is not asking for Tibet to be a separate country. There is no “splittism,” the most awkward word the Chinese have managed to put into the Oxford dictionary. There’s the selfie and then there is splittism. Both are highly awkward. Blame the Americans for one, blame the Chinese for another.
Only a Dalai Lama visit can normalize Tibet’s southern border and Tibet can go back to the way it was for thousands of years. Tibet is a natural part of South Asia, more so than Afghanistan. There is no India China border dispute. There is only a Chinese reluctance to let the Dalai Lama bring a closure to the whole issue.
Mind over matter. The Chinese should let the Dalai Lama visit before it is too late.
I am a Buddhist. I have been for almost 20 years now.
That is why what is going on in Nepal is of world war proportions. The Bramhins will be defeated in Kathmandu before they will be defeated in Delhi. Buddhists are not looking to conquer, not with the sword. Buddhists are looking to simply exist. You may not annihilate the body. You may not annihilate the brain. And you may not have hierarchies. But for that one person one vote is good enough. People have to make their own choices.
Mind over matter. The Dalai Lama has a bad knee. Maybe the Chinese would like to help. He wants to visit.

Bollywood, democracy, development ------ all are export items. Even Hinduism. The RSS folks should go on missions all over the world and spread the good word on Hinduism and convert the willing.
Hinduism is 10,000 years old. But the caste system is only 1,000 years old. Why did Hinduism after existing for 9,000 years suddenly feel the need for a caste system?
When Modi became Prime Minister he said India after a gap of 1,000 years had thrown the yoke and is now ruling itself. Well, I guess that is plus minus 50 years. Because India became independent over half a century ago. But what is plus minus 50 years when you are talking in terms of thousands of years.
When a Hindu India got invaded by Muslim rulers the religion developed this strangest thing called the caste system. Hindus broke themselves up into all sorts of castes and sub-castes. The unity was broken. I call it self hate. The colonization was internalized. And the caste system was born.
That is to say now creating a casteless Hinduism is essential to Hindu freedom. Hindus are not free unless the caste system is completely dismantled. This requires coming up with casteless last names. This requires Hindus marrying Hindus regardless of caste background. I think the RSS people have work cutout for them.
