message 3: by Rick (new)

Rick Sam (gottfried_leibniz) | 39 comments Interesting, I've not explored Vivekananda or Hindu Philosophy works.

-Why did you choose to read them?
-What do they talk about?


message 4: by Rick (new)

Rick Sam (gottfried_leibniz) | 39 comments Interesting -- I am guessing he would talk about universalism and rationalism?

What do you think about existence and meaning of life?

Rick Sam (gottfried_leibniz) | 39 comments @Swapnil:

I do not have much reading experience with Advaita Philosophy.

I think I can follow if you can make an attempt at it.

Could you expand more of things that you like from Bhakti Yoga, Karma Yoga?

I’m familiar with Western philosophical schools of thought.

As far as I know — most Indian or Hindoo school of thought focuses on karma, reincarnation, soul et cetera. Did I get that correct?

Interesting — I’ve thought Secular or within, Naturalism, meaning of life is to survive or pass on our genes i.e next of kin. Now that makes sense, but within Naturalism, some questions like,

-Why humility?
-Why do weaker people in society would need of help?


This is all contingent upon Naturalism being true worldview.
