Are we so different?

“And are we so different?

Did not Muhammad learn from the Christians and much of Islam ‘adopted’ from Christianity? Does not the Ka’bah also appear in the same name and form in the land of the Zoroastrians in the far reaches of Persia? Did not Jesus disappear from the ages of 12 to 30 when he sought tuition from Buddhists, as many now believe? Did not John the Baptist practice what was practiced by the Hindus in India of his time? But what can we really believe? Do we really know what was fact and fiction thousands of years ago? What we do know is what we have been told to believe. And what we are told to believe is what they want us to believe. And what they want us to believe is what suits the political agenda of those who walk in the corridors of power.” This is the latest article from RPK

I am not out for my lunch as my heavy morning breakfast is still digesting. I was in a mid of reading the “Truly Malaysian” latest article. Mostly is about the KT by election heat. It is really heating up and we can see how BN is playing their wild card candidate. The authorities, the gangsters in uniform are really being the “budak suruhan” for UMNO rules BN. What a joke, they order Pakatan to bring down the DAP and PKR’s flag with a reason they are not contesting, only PAS flags are allowed cause they are competing. Approving permits for BN’s ceramah and delaying/not approving Pakatan’s ceramah permits. This has been happening from the day one when Tun M started to rule the country. Cronyism, Nepothism and Corruptionsm.

The UMNO rules BN “taikos” are playing the wild card. RM12.8 millions for Chinese community’s improvement is approved. They return back the petroleum subsidies to state government. More than 500 local contractors shall be awarded with contract which was previously done by their cronies. Why now? Why now they react? Why now they are so keen about the Chinese community? Where is the one who called Chinese as pendatang? Why aren’t they loud out their voice? Why they are keeping their tail down?

Another issue that did click me on this is the word banned “Allah”. Please refer to the first paragraph which I copy and paste from RPK’s article. Believe me, I was looking for this answer for more then 15 years. I came across a statement earlier in 1992 from the book written by Bhagwan Rajneesh, titled “Sing, Dance and Rejoice”. With his explanation now I am confident, what ever been told by the guru is true. Even the Christian was born from the teaching of Buddha. Christ who was traveling on business purpose from Jerusalem came across Buddhism which reached Afghanistan from India. The artifacts were destroyed by the Afghanistan extremist. Rajneesh even claim that Christ was brought down from the cross after 3 hours (6.00pm) after he was crucified on Friday 3.00pm. He was alive and was sent to Kashmir and he lived his age until 100 over years. His cemetry is in a village called “Pahalgam” beside Moses cemetery. I am not creating but it was written in a book by Bhagwan Rajneesh. Even the word “Pahalgam is a Hindi word which means “Shepherd”.

Can anyone deny much of Islam was adopted? Can anyone deny what ever John the Baptist practice is what was practiced by the Hindus in India at that time? I am not going to argue on this as I always believe all religion were from the same root. Only those who are fanatics, less civilized and less educated were the culprits on making the religion as hatred weapon on each other. I will never blame the Jewish. I will never blame the LTTE (Tamil Tigers) and I will never blame the Mujahideens. But I will blame my self for being selfish for not being able to educate and tell the truth to others. A day will come to prove these are the truth. I might be gone by than but the truth will prevail. The day will come for humans to realize that we are all from ONE, but still I am afraid it will too late than.

Yes to all and no to all, I am a bit confused with word “Allah” was ban from used by non-muslim in Malaysia. It was banned only in Malaysia. Not in Indonesia. In Indonesia the word is allowed. I simply don't understand why the double standard in two muslim country. Remember it again, only in Malaysia it was banned. But what was the truth? What actually is the meaning of this word? I did read a book title “One God” written by the disciple of Swami Baktivedantha Prabupada (Great soul who translated Bahgavadgita as it is). This is an excellence book which explain the meaning of words calling God’s name. Such as “Allah”, “Krsna”and many more. This calling name of GOD actually is not GOD’s specific names but the best expression that were given to GOD by human. The name “Krsna” is simply means the attractive one and represent the universe. The word “Allah” means “The Greatest” in Arabic language. In Arabic language god is called “Allah”. It is simple as that. No need to explain further. No need to elaborate. But why in Malaysia, we are so “Hu Ha" about it? They haven’t been told about this? Can’t they simply understand this as another Arabic word to call god. Ask your self, did your name really yours or was given to you by your parents?

It is not the name of GOD himself. GOD has no names. He is infinity, he has no body. He is formless. Fail to understand this shall lead to confusion. The failure to understand this shall create hatred. This is where the fanatism will blind ones eyes. This is where we create wall between each other. This is where hatred was created on each other. The hatred will become wall to one who is fanatic. The wall will separated us from each other and becoming thicker. And this is dangerous. Solution is in our hand. It is time to use our powerful weapon. The need to use the power of “choice”, we need to choose what we want. Choose to reject what we don't need.

“Ragupathy ragave raja ram, pathi tha pavana seethe ram, …. In the mid of this song written by Mahathma Gandhi, it was clearly mentioned…. “Iswara Allah Tero Nam, Sabkho Sanmathi Jai Bagadwan….” Meaning Allah and Iswaran (Lord Siva) is only their name but they are ONE, the only ONE. There is no yours and mine. It is our GOD. The Hindus has been singing this song in every prayer, every day around the temples in this world. What we going to do about it? Banned this song?

Malaysians are far more intelligent than before. The world is in our finger tips. The truth is written everywhere. You just have to surrender to it. The information world is close to us. Nothing can be hidden anymore. As long as we can open our eyes and surrender, than we are in the right track. Surrender but don’t close your eyes, because we need to be alert. We need to give in order to receive. We need to give love in order to receive love. We need respect others as we want them to respect us. If we want others to love us, than love you must give. But be the first to give love. Be the first to forgive, and all of us will be forgiven.
