What is your worldview?

It is called Dharma, it is the first organized religion on this planet. It originates in what is now called India, but then was populated with Indo-Europeans, who later spread and founded Europe.

We believe in one God, in a trinity of sorts.

It's actually similar to traditional Christianity in many ways, but also different in that we offer a lot more metaphysical understanding.

And more philosophical takes on things.

What is your holy scripture?

There's many. It would take your entire life to read it all. Mostly though Rig Veda, Bhavishya Purana, Bhagavad Gita etc.

Bhagavad Gita is prob the most relevant to this age

Who wrote them?

various masters and Brahmin caste priests who have passed down these teachings in much the same way that semitic scripture was, initially through memory and verbal repeating, then was written down

Were they all knowledgeable?

Yes, the texts are very rigorous too. Often introducing topics which you might learn in a graduate philosophy course in university now.

We however don't seek to convert people

because we don't believe in a linear conception of life, we believe in reincarnation

Was the yes to that the Brahmins were all knowledgeable?

certainly some could make mistakes, but the scriptures are passed down from divinity

Surya a deva (something like the western angel) passed this down to the first man (literally called Manush).

The etymology of the word man basically comes from the sanskrit Manush.

And all European language stems from ancient Vedic sanskrit.

I have heard that myth.

Before.

it's not a myth

But that is a tanget.

When were these books written?

Exactly.

the estimates vary from 1500-6000 years ago, depending on whether you take sculptures in temples as writings as well

bc

the earliest I think was written right around when Christ was around

there are actually Dharmic writings being written today too, but it's mostly commentary

Give me the date of the holy scriptures from which you extrapolate your morals for example. When were they written?

on the old scripture

@Richard Rock Rig Veda has a lot of duties. Basically monogamy, anti homosexuality, anti adultery, anti pederasty, pro large family building, anti mixing races and blood etc.

Okay, who exactly wrote it, when and where?

many many people, you can google the succession of Brahmin masters and gurus

Were they all deemed to be all-knowledgeable?

the most recent translation of the Bhagavad Gita in its authentic form was done by the last traditional Guru I know of Prabhupada

not all knowledgeable, but the scriptures had passed down from Surya, and other devas

a deva is basically an angel of God

a servant
