From the thread : Killing the honour is also crime
Sir, neither my father, nor me ever brought
Kaanwad. My mother and father celebrate all Hindu festivities. As now my mother has grown too old so my father cooks
halwa-poori, poode (
gulgule in Haryanvi) and
kheer etc. on the occasion of festivities. My father has been offering
guldana to Hanuman in a local temple since many years. Now my father can go alone to the village, but my mother can't, so on mostly occasions I take them both to my village. In way, my parents always stop to visit 'gufa', which is a well known worship place just ahead the Baghpat. My mother regularly gives mustard oil and flour to a beggar woman, who comes to our locality each saturday. My father never misses a chance to help the saints, gaushalas etc.
As far as I am concerned, I just have respect for Hinduism, but I am not interested in any festivities or other rituals. Though I once had come to Delhi from my village on feet many years ago. It took about 20 hours to cover the distance of about 90 kms. It was just to express affection towards my region. Now I take the sip of beers even on tuesday. Actually what I have been doing (the penance), that will make the Hinduism super strong in real sense, provided I get success.
Actually, I don't want to get carried away, I am forced to do so. I just replied in that thread, but Atish just ignited the matter to derail the topic.

Believe me, there was no where in my mind what discussion me and Rakesh Sangwan ji had had earlier in this thread.
Well, all are like family members here, so no problem.
