: Sometimes one wonders whether a misunderstanding of our ancient scriptures would breed a passive sort of character amongst us? Comments?

: Kamal

Response:

Yes, it is possible. However, Hindu philosophy is time-tested solid philosophy of life that has undergone considerable scrutiny over a period of at least 10,000 years. Thus, any interpretation of Hindu scriptures that breeds passive character is certainly a wrong interpretation.
