Do you really believe anything that Hinduism Today prints?
That rag is one of the largest repositories of misinformation
I have ever laid eyes on. Time and time again they misrepresent
the complexity of traditional Indian beliefs and philosophy.
This ``excellent'' article on vegetarianism is just the tip of
the iceberg.

I feel it neccessary to respond to this aspect of the post. I subscribe
to Hinduism Today, and I find it a noble effort to serve and foster
Hindu Solidarity. I would like to know specificly what misinformation
is in repose there. How do they misrepresent the complexity of
traditional Hindu beliefs? It seems to me they are very liberal in
giving space to any given Hindu viewpoint, even though they are a
specific and very orthodox Saivite Sect. I feel they are to be lauded
for their high mindedness. Please be more specific.
Sincerely,
