Very good one

GO NOT TO THE TEMPLE TO PUT

FLOWERS UPON THE FEET OF GOD,

FIRST FILL YOUR OWN HOUSE WITH

THE FRAGARENCE OF LOVE....

GO NOT TO THE TEMPLE TO LIGHT

CANDLES BEFORE THE ALTAR OF GOD,

FIRST REMOVE THE DARKNESS OF SIN

FROM YOUR OWN HEART.....

GO NOT TO THE TEMPLE TO BOW DOWN

YOUR HEAD IN PRAYER,

FIRST LEARN TO BOW IN HUMILITY

BEFORE YOUR FELLOW MEN.....

GO NOT TO THE TEMPLE TO PRAY

ON BENDED KNEES,

FIRST BEND DOWN TO LIFT SOMEONE

WHO IS DOWNTRODDEN.....

GO NOT TO THE TMEPLE TO ASK

FOR FORGIVENESS FOR YOUR SINS,

FIRST FORGIVE FROM YOUR HEART

THOSE WHO HAVE SINNED AGAINST YOU.

RABINDRANATH TAGORE

I was reading the blog on
http://indianslokas.blogspot.co.uk/2009/05/is-nt-it-strange.html


I then came across this blog called ‘Very good’.
So Im thinking
Isnt it strange how Hindus
PRAISE anything critical towards Hinduism
But are critical of the teachings therein.


I do appreciate this message is from Rabindranath Thagore.
