Why Hinduism, India is smeared globally & how to fight back | Jeffrey Armstrong ji 

Such a humble and learned person. Have to look up to people like him. Respect.

Namaste: Hinduism is an Indian religion and dharma, or way of life, Hinduism has been called the oldest religion in the world, many practitioners refer to their tradition as Sanātana Dharma, "the eternal way" with ancient origins beyond human history, as revealed in the Vedas. Also known as Vaidika dharma, the 'dharma related to the Vedas. Hinduism includes a range of philosophies, and is linked by shared concepts, recognisable rituals, cosmology, pilgrimage to sacred sites and shared textual resources that discuss theology, philosophy, mythology, Vedic yajna, Yoga, agamic rituals, and temple building, among other topics, Hinduism prescribes the eternal duties, such as honesty, refraining from injuring living beings (ahimsa), patience, forbearance, self-restraint, and compassion, among others. Prominent themes in Hindu beliefs include the four Puruṣārthas, the proper goals or aims of human life; namely, Dharma (ethics/duties), Artha(prosperity/work), Kama (desires/passions) and Moksha (liberation/freedom from the cycle of death and rebirth/salvation), as well as karma (action, intent and consequences) and Saṃsāra (cycle of death and rebirth), One of the key thoughts of Hinduism is “atman,” or the belief in soul. This philosophy holds that living creatures have a soul, and they're all part of the supreme soul. Hinduism is more than a religion. It is a culture, a way of life, and a code of behavior. This is reflected in a term as described the Hindu religion: Sanatana Dharma, which means eternal faith, or the eternal way things are (truth). Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, are all DHARMA religions with its roots in Sanatana Dharma the oldest religion in the world, beyond human history, JAI hind.

Jeffery Armstrong ji is spot on. I hope all those on SM esp. Twitter will start cleaning up their way of communicating anad their language.

History subject should be rewritten in India. Kids should be tought about our vedic knowledge in schools rather then giving importance to British rule and Moghul rule. There is so much knowledge in our culture 🙏

Sanatana does not require any validation. The simple fact that it has survived thousands of years in spite of attacks from outsiders and insiders speaks of its innate strength..

Mr Jeffrey Armstrong is speaking of the wisdom realised, spread and practised in India. But we as Indians of today, are not aware of this priceless wisdom. We take birth only to gain wisdom. We must all begin to gain wisdom and spread it. Nothing is impossible.

This channel need to be spread like fire. Atleast I request everyone who love this channel should share with friends and their friends.

Mr. Armstrong makes very relevant point of framing. The framing Christian Priests have propagated is that Hindus believe in Multiple Gods and are Idol worshippers. That has to be responded to in an equivalent manner. To begin with Hindus have made a disservice to themselves by adopting the notion of Abrahamic God into their vocabulary. There is no mention of the word “God” in Vedic scriptures and using that term results in a false equivalence. Even learned enlightened men like Radhakrishnan and Swami Chinmayananda and his followers have fallen into this trap. So to begin the response, the first sentence ought to be there is no God in Hinduism as defined by the Abrahamic belief. What we have are Devas and Devis who are Spirits with attributes. We can ask where are these spirits. We can also ask where is this God? Where is he, she or it is hiding. Unlike the one size fits all notion of God, the Sanatana Dharma belief system encapsulates many spirits. Let me turn the usual monotheism is superior to polytheism argument propagated by Christian and Muslim priests around. Sanatana Dharma is rich in symbolism and as explained earlier, has many Devas and Devis. Devas and Devis are Spirits with attributes. Both Christianity and Islam believe in Spirits. Sanatana Dharma has taken the belief in Spirits and identified many, many spirits. That is the richness of Sanatana Dharma. On the other hand the Abrahamic God is a one size fits all Spirit. Another false notion is that the simplified concept of a monotheist God, promotes unification among its believers. Really? Is that why there are so many sects among Christians and Muslims. On the other hand Sanatana Dharmis accept diversity among themselves, and accept the following. Those interested in money pray to Lakshmi. Those interested in Knowledge pray to Saraswati. Those who wish their problems solved pray to Ganapati. This takes away the issue of “my God, is more powerful than your God”. Now let’s add science to this discussion. Scientists, Atheists, Believers have to agree that the Universe appeared from nothing. Believers in God claim God created the Universe. OK then where is this God? Why is God hiding from us. However Scientists and Atheists will admit we don’t know the details of how, but we know it happened. Aha, says the Sanatana Dharmi, that unknown is Brahman. Not to be confused with Brahma. Everything we know and don’t know, everything that exists and will come to exist is Brahman. Both scientists and atheists have to agree that this cumulative set is of known and unknowns is Brahman. That’s it. There is no question of assigning attributes to Brahman. Dharmis don’t pray to Brahman. When there was nothing that “null” set was Brahman. Now the Universe as we know it and beyond is Brahman. But unlike the Abrahamic God, or for that matter Devas and Devis who have power to do things, Brahman just exists. See how powerful this is backed by scientific thinking?

Sooo emotional and heart touching conversation... you are also a Sadhu of India Jeffrey Ji... I am being grateful to born in this period where people like you are.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you Jeffrey ji for the thought provoking talk 🙏. . . The world would be a better place if it is practised. . We indians do not know about our own glorious history, some body from outside is reminding us. . What a sad state of affairs. . CITTI team👍

Wow how organically explained by Jeffery ji. Thank you for the wisdom .

Thx Jeff 😘 lovely reply and appreciate your help your voice will echo far and beyond 🙏

Dear Jeffrey absolutely beautiful the way you expressed yourself and the key learnings you framed for us. I listened very carefully and my humblest pranaams to the aatmaa within 🌹🙏🏽🌹 You are a friend on my Facebook page and I shall soon send you a message my dear friend. Thankyou 🤗🙏🏽🙌🏽

your programmes are eye opening all young PEOPLE OF INDIA need to be educated for far too long these facts have been hidden from the good people off this great COUNTRY you're doing such a great service hats off to YOU jai HIND

Namaskar! I live in the USA, and have lived here since the 1970s. After immigration was opened to non-whites in 1965, I guess I was among the first wave of immigrants! Anyhow, I have been just so appalled to see what powerful newspapers like the New York Times and Washington Post are doing, in terms of anti-India, anti-Modi rhetoric. In 1990, lakhs of Hindu Pandits were being brutalized, tortured, killed, and expelled from Kashmir, and not a word from these "wise" people. But a handful of Muslims get hurt in Delhi during riots, and these media writers are all up in arms. So I got to thinking: why, why, why this horribly unfair anti-Hindu rhetoric? Well, most of the anti-India columnists for the newspapers I mentioned, have Muslim names. They manage to get away with their anti-India nonsense. And the newspapers never bother to reach out to the Modi government for a response. These people are left-wingers. We must admit that these people despise right wing radical Christians as well, such as the Trump radicals. Any religion based radicals, these newspapers decry. So I assume that goes for Modi radicals who go around India attacking anyone suspected of cow slaughter. And yet you travel across India and you see neglected cows, emaciated and weak, barely alive, wandering the streets. Why are those poor cows allowed to suffer so? This is the sort of thing that the newspapers here focus on. Just so you know. I, for one, am so truly delighted to see an Indian government correcting the tragic anti-Hindu mistakes of the Congress government of the past several decades.

Thanks for your concern and belief for our culture and Dharma (Daasa)of Bhaarath.

I wish we could communicate with him via comments 🙏

I loved the reframe of democracy to dharmacracy. Brilliant!! Deeply grateful to Jeffreyji for his wisdom and guidance.

Pranam Rishi ji for explaining the scientific face of Sanaatan dharm, which has been totally ignored by western world.

Amazing, completely true . Thankyou. Lots of respect to Rishiji 🙏❤

Great man. I recommend that people buy his translation of the Bhagavad Gita.

This man is bright and speaks genuine subjects

First line he spoke was about advertisement. And when I played this video...before video started there was an Islamic ad!

Thank you guruji,for empowering ud

Sir, you are really amazing, have so much of knowledge and explaining everything in detail making everything so much interesting. Want to listen to many more talks of yours.

How to fight back is the key Armstrong Ji. It's a challenge to say the least. Personally, I feel it is a blessing to have been born as a Hindu, because, one is so much closer to The Reality and the ultimate Truth. To fall into the trap of Abrahamic faiths and getting converted is like one is moving farther away from the Truth. It is sad to see the amount of proselytization in Bharat and to see so many people moving away from a wonderful culture and civilization. But, I am not giving up, however, people in the west are more receptive to listening to the narrative of Sanatana Dharma unlike the people from India who have been proselytized.

Wow! This is great stuff and thank you sir for creating awareness of what's going around us and how/why the Hindu culture is getting targeted. The explanation of advertising and connecting to the question title is great.

I shared this with my groups. Need of the day for all Indians. 🙌

Corporates & Capital are not India's biggest problems. Anti-Capitalists and HinduPhobia are.

Many have knowledge but not all have the gift of articulation and in the proper way of saying it. Thank you Jeffery ji for conveying a lot in little time.

Last 5-7 mins, sheer purity, no words can describe the feeling…!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Such a Inspiration , never heard anything from Indians .Vedic Teaching is a must to reframe the opponent.

Exceptional counter points

We need to financially support Mahant Narsimhanad ji with open heart. This is the least we can do.

What a way perfect way Jeffrey Armstrong Ji, has put it.. Much respect to him

Very good presentation as to what hindus should do. Brilliant. He displays a thorough and indepth knowledge and wisdom of the santana dharma unfolded by our great rishis and propogated by our saints and seers. The choice of words used by him proves that he has applied the principles in practical life and is talking whole heartedly and sincerely to repay the debt. A great sevaka to paramatma. Namaste.👍👌👏🙏

Excellant rebuttal by Armsrongji

Well said sir...... democracy to Dharmacracy with Namaste. 🙏🙏

Wow sir you have helped me learning the framing system.

Hats off to Jeffrey Sir.

Sir, the great concepts you speak of were widely spread all over in satyug. Currently, kalyuga is about to begin.

Mr. White⚪ you ❤good👍 Man 🌱to 🌌👣💧worry about our future humanity To spritual❤ I served 15 years 🚢International standards.. To all people 👍who U are doesn't Mater.... Mater is whole I am 👨‍🍳 I ❤🙏.. Thanks🌹. Love forever........

Wow I like the reframe that is provided.

Hindus have been so much extra peaceful and their attitude of welcoming all religions and cultures has costed them a lot. Hindus have been killed as Chickens since several years in their own country. They will never learn... Israelis did. Everyone exploits their soft attitude

Nameste, Jeffrey ji. 🙏🏽

Brilliant ! Jeffrey Armstrong ji can turn anything into an erudite discussion.

The truth is the truth and nothing else is. Thanks brother for your clear understanding and fluid speech. What you say has helped me in my life.

Namaste Armstrongji

Absolutely agree with you in the reframing approach.... instead of being emotional and rather politely get them to embrace the dharmacracy

Thank you.

As a hindu Brahmin just much love to rishi Armstrong ji ❤️🙏🕉️

He had me at reframing and namaste culture

We always need a foreigner to acknowledge our strength.

Great point - people from South East Asia tend to get reactive very quickly, trying to defend a position. Western journalists will always try to pick out people who are not fluent in English so that they can manipulate the situation and provoke them . Learn the rules of language, speak slowly and never get provoked!

Wonderful reframing

Seva bhava 🙏

🙏🙏

Vaidic sanatan Dharma ki JAY

Good video

🚩🚩

On this analysis, think what would happen to people who commit all kinds of evils from killing to everything else against our fellow human beings!

Every video should have summary of important points. Hindu Sanatan Dharma

Namaskar

Great work Please dub in हिन्दी Please 🙏

The reframing was an eye opener. The reframed offer made in return will be rebuffed, I’m guessing, because aggression is the intent behind western reframing of the vedic culture. So in the end it comes down to a dogfight, except that now hindus would be fighting as equals with equal entitlement based on dharma and not as angry victims.
