young kid those who are touched by the untouchable but with china and japan we see buddhism and hinduism today maintaining the existential world p.o. but that is to the class is being broken of today that contribution from the common ethic that the face religions have. i agree that it is god's intention that god sent to every community in their own language so from my point* of view it is god's intend to be worshipped in different languages. of 51 to choose to speak english lowered german and this is your option and we should celebrate that price at -- friday and i have learned a lot about my own religion i encourage my comrades to learn more about christianity in hinduism because you understand your own version better that way to us like it makes you understand your own language better said these are thoughts i want to throw out. >> that is a good place to stock. do want to say anything in conclusion? >> but the deep part felt word of thanks for coming here today to give us the honor of your attention. i want to thank you for your great moderating and imam imam, surrey net, chloe, thank

who were muslim but it was left to itself and there was a great religion, animism was there and hinduism and then 500 bc, buddhism and then some christians sailed over, thomas and then 500, a little later, of course, the muslims came in and the muslim rulers came in overlaid and so during that time, it comes the again back to 1947 the british had been there, for about 250 years and the great raj and the british arrived with the east india company, a trading company, and then they had to bring in the army to enforce this thing that was part empire part agreement with the local sultans and so on lasted 250 years and just 1947 after the war, the british left and so that is when there was the great election and pakistan was born as a muslim state taken out of india, and the boundaries were determined by a guy sitting in london, never been to india, just took a chart and drew it right down there. >> wow. >> and so for instance, lahore one of the great cities of the world in punjab is 30 miles or so from the sikh capital but different countries so it divided families there is a great migration

the superintendent says yoga is never presented as an extension of hinduism. the majority of inmates here are hindu. >> anyone who breathes can do yoga. if you breathe, yoga belongs to you. >> reporter: but yoga scholars say it involves much more than breathing exercises. >> if you practice yoga, it's not just about making your body fit. it's about changing your mental state, your consciousness. the breathing exercises help increase oxygen flow to the vital organs. it stimulates the nervous system, brings sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems into balance. the whole way how you look at the work, look at other people, is transformed. >> i can control my anger now. i want to go away from crime. i want to join the mainstream of society and support my parents. >> there's no hard evidence yet of the impact of yoga on recidivism, but prison officials say with the health and management benefits, they can see no downside to a morning yoga class. for "religion and ethics newsweekly" this is fred de sam lazro. >>> this sunday is holocaust remembrance day, yom

civilization conditions and ancient israel, and schrute in the world of islam and did in india under hinduism. in every society have a religious law made by religious authorities interpreted by hierarchies in the case of islam and then the ruler pass to go to get sanctions 1/2 to be sanctified and there is a clear distinction and the priest is on top of the warrior. that is a rule of law what we mean by rule of law. the only role civilization that did not have rule of law is china and the reason why or a transcendental religion they have ancestor worship in his amazing to think they got so sophisticated with the primitive religion because you're not required to worship the emperor's ancestors but just you're so there is no authority but it is completely controlled by the state sell to nobody felt there is a higher source to obey. the chinese communist party the constitution doesn't limit what they want to do. the rule applied develops very early and powerful one of the hero's life the reformation i like the catholic church with some historical risk spence it was important in the early middle

he had a hinduism quality to him. these are stories i should have mentioned, the famous story where he presumably -- [no audio] the other story about, yes, putting out the fire so the bugs wouldn't be burned. you and i push them towards the fire, and he'd put out the fire. there's this pure quality. as i say in that epilogue, he really did see -- another story while he planted apples by seed. he talked about this. because the apple then feels the grafters knife as surely as the human limb does so you can only plant by seed. it's an inefficient way to plant apple trees as you know. apple seeds are fascinating. every apple seed continues the yes kneltic material for every variety of apple ever made, so if you plant an apple seed, if you have a gala apple and save the seeds and put them in the ground, your chances of getting a gala apple tree is one is 100,000. what's more, apple trees when you plant by seed revert to their native state, and that state is central asia where they had to do great battle with a canopy, so t

it is true in the world of islam, and it is true in india under hinduism. in over one of these -- in every one of these societies, you have a religious law that is made by religious authorities interpreted by hierarchies of religious judges, you know, the lama, the scholars, the priestly class in the case of india, and in all cases, the ruler has to go to the religious authority to get sanctions. in india, you have to be sanctioned by a bramum. there's a clear status distinction and it's the pres on top of warrior in that society. that's rule of law. that's what we mean by rule of law. the only world civilization that did not have rule of law in this sense is china. the reason i believe the chinese never had this rule of law is they never had a religion. they had ancestor worship, but it's, you know, it's amazing that chinese got to be so sophisticated with a primitive religion. ancestor worship, you worship your ancestors. there's no authority that comes from it. it was controlled by the state, and so no chinese emperor felt there was a higher source of la

does that mean that you're against hinduism. listen to me, i'm agnostic, okay? but the proof is in the pudding. america, the pillar of capitalism, the pillar of judeo-christianity, there's checks and planses that work off each other. america rose so quickly to become what it was in a short period of time. and then the cultural marxists came in and took our constitutions down. they got rid of washington's birthday. they got rid of lincoln's birthday. they got kids at their college campus saying, mom, i love you, thank you for buying me a stereo on the first day -- >> host: and you want to take god we trust -- >> guest: by thanksgiving in the first semester, why are we having thanksgiving, mom and dad! you are an oppressor of the native american. that is what the left is in this country. in the book you will learn about critical theory. in the book you will learn about saul alinsky translating critical theory to the street level. it's tearing down our culture. just criticizing -- sarah palin is bad. sarah palin is bad. george bush is bad. george bush is bad. the w

are you against hinduism? listen to me, i'm agnostic, but the proof is in the pudding. america, the pillar of capitalism, the pillar of christianity, checks and balances work off of each other. america rose quickly to become what it was in a short period of time, and then the culture marxist came in, took the institutions down, got rid of washington's and lincoln's birthdays, got kids at their college campus saying, mom, i love you, thank you for buying me a radio. >> host: instead of thanking god. >> guest: right. by thanksgiving in the first semester, why thanksgiving, mom and dad? we were an oppressor of the native american. that's what the left is in the country. in the book you learn theory, and learn about how to have critical theory that is tearing down our culture just cite sizing saying palin is bad, bush is bad, the war is bad, barak obama won the presidency after four years of the left arguing that the war is wrong, the war is wrong, the war is wrong. it's theory. it doesn't matter that once they got in that they didn't stop the wars. it was an effective stra

true in a christian tradition but it is true in the world of islam, and it is true in india under hinduism and every one of these societies, you have a religious law that is made by religious authorities, interpreted by hierarchies of religious judges. and in all of these cases for the rule action has to go to the religious authority to get sanctions. in india you have to be sanctified. there's a clear status, distinction, and it is the priest that is on top of the water in a society. so that's rule of law. that's what we mean by will of law. the only world civilization that did not have rule of law in this sense is china. and the reason i believe the chinese never had this kind of rule of law was they never had a transcendental religion. that ancestor worship but it's actually amazing to think chinese got to be those of us could with such a primitive religion because ancestor worship, you're not required to worship the emperor's ancestors. you will have to worship your ancestors so there's no kind of authority. so no chinese emperor has ever felt that there is a higher source of law and t

with the increase of democracy in india, china, and japan, we see hinduism maintaining its existential world view, but the notion of human beings being broken up by democracy today, and that to me is one of the contributions, if you will, of the common ethic of that we abrahamic faith religions have. i agree with bert that it is god's intention, our scriptures speak that god acceptability -- sent to every community someone to love and teach in their own language. it's god's intent to be worshiped in different languages, so it's -- if you want to choose to speak english, french, german, make love in french or english, i mean, this is your option, and we should celebrate that variety and learn. i have learned a lot about -- >> wherever you are, thank you so much for your welcome. a great job, and james parks moriton, dean evans, god bless you. thank you.
