Very interesting !! I had always thought that Hari and Krishna were
just two different names for Vishnu. Good that it forms a separate topic
by itself and also different from Hinduism.
What is the difference between Yoga and Samkhya ? Is vedanta also
different from Hinduism ? The way people in SRH have been differentiating
Hinduism from Vedanta, shaivism, vaishnaivism etc, it looks that there is
nothing in Hinduism except Ravanas. The curious thing is that this is happening
in the group soc.religion.hindu, which should be renamed
soc.religion.non-vaishnaiva, non-shaiva, non-shakta, as an enlightened
poster has pointed out that people like Hanuman were not Hindu but only
vaishnavites.
Oh, btw, what is seikism ? Since you are teaching a class for a
large number of people, I would like to know.
