Hinduism is commonly perceived as a polytheistic religion, Indeed most hindus would attest to this, by professing belief in multiple gods. while some hindus believe in the existence of 3 gods. some believe in thousands of gods and some other in thirty three crore i.e 330 million gods how ever learned hindus who is well versed in scriptures insist that a hindu should believe in one god.
The major difference between hindu and muslim is perception of god is common. Hindu belief in philosophy of pantheism. pantheism considers everything living and non living. to be divine and sacred.the common hindu therefore consider everything as god.he consider sun moon snake monkey etc and even human being as manifestations of god!
Islam on the contrary, exhorts man to consider himself and his surroundings as example divine creation rather then as divinity itself. Muslim therefore believe that everything is God's i.e the word god with an apostrophe 's'. In other words muslim believe that everything belong to god. The tree snake monkey etcin the universe belong to god.
Thus the major difference between the Hindu and Muslim Beliefs is the difference of apostrophe 's'. The Hindu says everything is god. The Muslim says everything is God's. Therefore 'WORSHIP THE CREATOR NOT HIS CREATIONS.
How can a god bite and kill his creations?
Yeh Wrong No. hai, Read your authentic scriptures and ponder on it.
RIP!
Superstition belief....snake does not spare anyone....but it should have...cant play with it....
we cannot blame the snake here because
girls know that is god as per hindhu culture but
snake dont know that it is god
Cow, buffalo, Rat, Elephant, Crow, Monkey, Donkey, Snake.. What next? Mooka praani galella dewara? worship the creator not creations! and specially not animals..
Indians are foolish, this happens only in India they do not know what to worship linga, snake, monkey, donkey, pig etc.....
Yes to cover their cunning and so called deva bhakti, some will start to blame that lady. Punishment from Naag devtha and they will continue these bling practice.
karana rao, Where is naga loka?
Whatever may be the reason, we lost a precious life. Pray for God's mercy on the poor family.
Snake is not God or it will not take you to God. Worship the creator and not his creation.
this is called mooda nambike and she deserve for it.
she will directly go to nagaloka, lucky girl.
