Re: Jesus and caste system
You know, Sam, your reply to V. S. Pai's message is, as you said, "a
perfect example to how people misinterpret stuff."

I am sure that Vijay is aware of the Isha Upanishad as it is one of the
most important upanishads. Vijay was probably aware when he wrote of the
Issa Upanishad (issa = yeshua = jesus). Secondly, the name Isha comes
from the opening of the Isha Upanishad - "ishavasya".

There is one large distinction between "Hindus" and Buddhists and Jains,
that being that the latter two do not regard the authority of the Vedas.
