Hinduism, someone wrote a while back on Goanet, is by and large a theistic religion. He is right. And, I might add, so is Christianity. They are both dualistic. God and You, I and God, and so on. You can also add Islam and Judaism to this list. Prayer, of course, is an expression of this belief in duality. Buddhism says there is no God separate from us. Or there is no God, period. Tao says the same, too. Just an observation, a small point. Celebrate life! * * *
