Is giving Obama a monkey racist?
Regardless of their religious beliefts, many times political figures will receive gifts from foreign countries which could be described as religious in nature. Any gift given earnestly by honest people - whatever their beliefs may be - should be accepted in a like manner, earnestly and honestly. As a Christian, such a gift should be accepted as a symbol of the hopes and aspirations of the giver, and should be put in a public place in honor of the *givers*, not a personal place in honor of the *gift*. Honoring the giver - not the gift - takes it out of the realm of idolatry and puts it in the realm of gratitude.
Such is the nature of diplomacy and dealings on a national level, and we have a sign here of how Barak Obama deals with gifts; everything to him personal, a reflection of himself.
Instead of earnestly and honestly accepting this gift, this gift was accepted in secret through a proxy by a back way. This speaks volumes about Obama’s character, and it is not good.
Sheesh! Maybe he is the Antichrist after all.
The monkey symbolism of Lord Hanuman is related to the notion that a human being's mind is ever active and never restful, hence the depiction of a human being with the face of a monkey. Furthermore, Lord Hanuman symbolically stands for pure devotion, complete surrender and absence of ego or the lower self. As the son of Vayu, symbolically he also stands for the subtle body consisting of the breath body, the mental body and the intelligence body. Here we explain Hanuman as the mental body in a human being.
The mind, being ever fickle, jumps from place to place, obtaining everything in its path and engaging in numerous activities that brings no peace to the surroundings. The mind can travel to any place and fly anywhere and cross to other parts of the world such is the power of the mind.
The mind can also expand or contract, and if it remains under the control of animal passions and sensory activities, it will become instable and devious. Hence, the mind of Hanuman is always under this fluctuation.
However, once surrendering occurs to the inner self and the mind becomes devoted unconditionally, the mind can obtain miraculous powers and perform stupendous feats like that of Lord Hanuman. When one's mind reaches this state in working for the divine, it helps the lower self (Sita) and Soul (Rama) to come together and become united.
We need to get a reaction from Farrakhan and his bow ties.
That is rich, Obama carries a Monkey God charm around with him, too funny.
An Indian Hindu priest performs prayers in front of a statue of the Hindu god Hanuman.
Wait for it....
"This is not the Lord Hanuman I knew."
"The Obama". I like the way that plays. Let's use it.
The Obama...
I do not know if Obama is a Lord Hanuman devotee and would not assume the article is right on that matter. But unless it is accepted only as a cultural artificat Obama should reject receiving this token.
Today marked the first time that a Hindu deity was thrown under the bus by the Barack Obama campaign, joining the ever-growing crowd there clinging to the greasy undercarriage, including Obama's pastor, his own Grandmother, Louis Farrakhan, Hamas, Father Pfleger, billions of Muslims, radical black liberationists and the majority of the white race. It is widely rumored that Obama will soon need to abandon the heavily-laden bus in favor of a hybrid Prius, in which he will not allow anyone else to ride or to speak until November.
Well, THAT throws a monkey wrench in Obambi’s pursuit of the Christian vote.
Christians are not supposed to accept idols or to eat food sacrified to idols lest the pagans come to believe that Christians think such beliefs and behavior are OK.
Otherwise this stuff won't hurt you. Presumably Obama already has sufficient numbers of devotees that he has someone on his staff who knows where to put these things.
Now, are Hindus "idol worshippers"? Or, do they use statues to represent "saints" (people who lived praiseworthy lives while manifest on Earth in a particular persona), and as memnonics to "inform and counsel" millions of people who have the misfortune of living in an illiterate society?
Buddha asked all these questions and more.
Sure took care of the statue problem for the Buddhists didn't it?!
This is in the religion forum? Does that mean I have to be Hindi to post on this thread?
