Not true.
Hinduism, like other religions, is open to anyone.

Riff, former PPP minister Clinton Collymore is an Afro-Guyanese. He converted to Hinduism since the PPP was an opposition party. He used to hold jhandi ceremonies in his yard.
Also, Hinduism is growing in Africa. Look here:

All Beings associated in the realm of divinity are explained to be like mutations of wild beast, birds and humans. Something like the experiments performed on humans in the Lost Civilization of Atlantis. The Greeks were also known for Minotaurs and other human/beast creations.
Some religious text other than the Hindu ones also define some of those creatures.
Which ever ancient religion/culture is touched upon, such type of Beings are found parading around. Egypt was famous the body of a man and the head of a jackal.
Hanuman cannot be discounted in the mythology of Hinduism, his creature is no different than other creatures in other mythologies.
Hanuman came with the Aryans to the Indus Valley. The depictions shows no Blue/Brown/Dark skin associations.

To be a Hindu, you have to be an Indian.
Unlike other religion, you are born a Hindu. Others can be followers of Hinduism.
One of my most respected Vaishnava. He is one of Krsna's best messenger.
His Holiness
Bhakti Tirtha Swami has been a source of inspiration for me for many, many years. Maharaja left his body but I read his books for inspiration on a daily basis.
Anyone can practice the Hindu faith. It is not exclusive to Indians.
Read the Bhagavad Gita for yourself.

Please explain.
Because I can see a person born as an Indian, but Hinduism like any other religion, is a choice.
Can a person born from Hindu parents, become a Christian ?
Is a person obligated to follow their Hindu parents, in their religion ?

Post something sensible, otherwise it makes you look ......
You sound like a person at a Guyana Embassy. When asked about how to renew a passports, they reply with one word.... NO.
Why is this provocative ?
When would be a better time to discuss the Hindu religion, than Diwali ?
The problem with Hindus in Guyana politics, they allow others to think for them and follow like sheep, without thinking about the consequences.
The more discussion takes place, the clearer issues might become.

Cobra, yuji, and Rama are now painting "no blacks allowed" to be laced at every Hindu temple they can find.
The usual panic about "douglarization".

In Guyana where the bulk of Christians are black, and there are several black Muslims I do not know how they will avoid that.
Do not worry, jut more black sons in law and dougla grand kids. I heard that nehru, baseman, cobra, yuji, and rama are headed back to India to ensure that they avoid blacks.

Guyanese Hindus are becoming Christians and Africans are becoming Hindus.
What of the screams of the Indo KKK that only Indians can be Hindus and the only true Indian is a Hindu.
This is why Cobra still remains mortified about Amazonian PNC females with super "cyats". The world is a very evil place for him.

Please point me to the scripture where this is written so that i can share it with my children
at the same time, maybe you know where it is written that hindus must not eat meat
No one is born a Hindu.
Unlike other religion, you are born a Hindu. Others can be followers of Hinduism.
what about those people who are BORN hindu and choose to follow a different religion, are they still hindu? i am no longer following my mother's hindu religion and asked my kids to ensure that my funeral is not done following hindu tradition specifically Sanathan Dharma
Chameli beti, please don't give kp jhanjhat tonight. There are Hindus and there are Hindus.
Some are orthodox Hindus who observe rituals minutely and interpret the scriptures literally and who support the oppression of the lower castes by the higher castes.
Some are modern Hindus who fought for reforms and are more flexible and open-minded like the Arya Samaj and IKSON/Hare Krishna.
You're certainly within your rights to reject a Sanatanist at your funeral.
Namaste, beti.

Good for you! As you know I am not into Rituals and do not agree with the fairy tales they preach. I often got into trouble. These days, I just attend and don't get into confrontation.
You must listen to the pundit carefully but doan hear one rass wuh him say.
Al YUh gum mek Caribj drink Poison
Al YUh gum mek Caribj drink Poison
looks like yuh homan Cobra drink Malaton after he see the black hindu swami.
Al YUh gum mek Caribj drink Poison
No that is how people like you behave.
Al YUh gum mek Caribj drink Poison
looks like yuh homan Cobra drink Malaton after he see the black hindu swami.
Please remember that Cobra (and yuji and rama) is a very troubled man these days. His head screams that he must hate all blacks.
The lower orifice between his butt cheeks screams love for "dem strang blackman". The Ghanaian might well fit the bill, and Cobra will do every thing that he can to tempt him.
Hopefully they figure out what it is about Hindus which leads to high suicide rates, and avoid it.
