April 19, 2010 | Hindus suggest Wesley Snipes to explore ancient Sanskrit scriptures to find 'purpose of life' |
Nevada (US): In view of actor-producer Wesley Snipes' (Blade) reported
fascination with exploring different religions including Hinduism; Hindus have suggested him to look more deeply into ancient Sanskrit scriptures. Acclaimed
Hindu statesman Rajan Zed, in a statement in Nevada (USA) today, pointed out that
Vedas, Upanishads and Bhagavad-Gita would prove helpful to MTV nominated Snipes,
47, to analyze the meaning and purpose of life. Zed, who is president of Universal
Society of Hinduism, further said that Snipes could look into "cosmic order" through
eternal Vedas, revered as apaurusheya (not of human origin), dating back to around
1,500 BCE. The philosophical Bhagavad-Gita could guide him about the virtue of
seeing god in everything, asceticism, devotion to dharma, nish-kama karma (non-desire
activity), doctrine of bhakti (devotion), idea of absolute action, etc. Rajan
Zed stressed that in the sacred teachings of Upanishads, Snipes could uncover
the purpose of existence, the nature of God and the soul, essence of ultimate
reality, attainment of salvation, concepts of individual soul and universal soul,
maya (illusion), karma (action), cycle of birth-death-rebirth, etc. If Snipes
needed any help on this issue, he or other Hindu scholars would gladly assist
him, Zed added. |
