Pakul Chaturvedi

Dear Milords, A few questions for you: 1) Circumcision/Hijab/Christian Traditions - Circumcision: A Muslim child gets circumcised before the age of 7. Does he go through the process of his own will? If not, doesn't it qualify as child abuse? - Hijab: What about hijab? Courts have repeatedly said that a girl has the right to choose to wear a hijab or not, even within an educational institution. - Nuns/Brothers/Priests: In the Christian tradition, many families groom their children to be nuns or priests from a young age. Is there free will there? Isn't it brainwashing, in that case? Have ever asked, why a father and mother who got married and had children, are forcing their children to be nuns/priests? In short, YOU RESPECT CUSTOMS OF CERTAIN RELIGIONS, BUT NOT HINDUISM? 2) Do you have children? Are your children practicing law? Are they lawyers or HC judges? - If yes, why did you force your profession on them? - If not, why did you allow them not to be in the legal field? I hope you got my point. Do you realize that there is something called free will? 3) What was the need to drag Sadhguru's daughter into this discussion? If Sadhguru's daughter had chosen to be a "hermitess," would you ask: "Why is Sadhguru forcing his will on his daughter?" 4) Do you have any evidence that Sadhguru forces anyone to be a "hermit" or "hermitess?" If not, why make such a loose remark? 5) In Hinduism, what path one chooses is entirely up to the individual! And no, there is no coercion, unlike some other faiths. We have many spiritual paths, unlike foreign faiths. If you don't know what the Yogic path is all about, you must first learn about it before making irresponsible remarks like this one. 6) This case has been going on for almost a decade. This man approaches the police again and again, even though his daughters have made it clear to the court, in the past that they are staying at the Isha Foundation of their own free will. 7) You imply that Sadhguru is against marriage. Do you know that you can get married at Isha Yoga Center? Lastly, don't you have millions of cases pending all around the country? And then you spend your time making such inane, irresponsible comments? As a tax-paying citizen of Bharat, I expect you to be more responsible with your observations in the future!
