Hinduism: What Really Happened in India – M. M. Ninan The Nicean Creed 179 “ We believe in one God, the Father All-sovereign, maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible. We believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, and the only-begotten Son of God, Begotten of the Father before all the ages, Light of Light, true God of true God, begotten not made, of one substance with the Father, through whom all things were made; who for us men and for our salvation came down from the heavens, and was made flesh of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, and became man, and was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, and suffered and was buried, and rose again on the third day according to the Scriptures, and ascended into the heavens, and sits on the right hand of the Father, and comes again with glory to judge living and dead, of whose kingdom there shall be no end. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and the Life-giver, that proceeds from the Father, who with the Father and Son is worshipped together and glorified together, who spoke through the prophets. We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic church. We acknowledge one baptism unto remission of sins. We look for a resurrection of the dead, and the life of the age to come. “ What is expressed in both the creeds are identitical and we know that this was the faith that existed until the third and fourth centuaries in India when the idol worship became prevalent and the inner core of faith was lost to the general public.
Hinduism: What Really Happened in India – M. M. Ninan “Taproot of the Hindu religion: 180 • Doctrine of Avatar - God becoming a man in order to redeem human beings. (Unborn Prime God was born in order to give us eternal pleasure) • Trinity or Triune doctrine - God in triune stage - Appan, Ammai, Makan (Saivism); Siva, Vishnu, Brahma (Vaishnavism) • Doctrine of fulfillment of sacrifice - The offering of sacrifice has ceased even though there is sacrificial altar in the temple. People do not offer sacrifice while they worship God. • Doctrine of forgiveness of sin - There is forgiveness for the sins of human beings by the grace of God and this doctrine is totally controversial to the saying that ‘the actions of one person would definitely yield its fruits’. • Doctrine of bhakthi - Appreciating the bhakthi which is in ones heart irrespective of one’s appearance, color, culture etc. (Kannappa Nayanar) “ The Revival Movement of Dravidian Religion Dr. M. Deivanayagam, Dr. D. Devakala Pillayar Concept In the savite trinity consist of Appan, Amma and Makan. While the concept of Appan (Father), Amma (Sakthi – Holy spirit) are direct, the concept of Makan (Son) in the form of the Elephant is surprising. Pillaiyar is depicted as Gana Pathy which in itself simply means Lord or Saviour of People – Emmanuel. Yet the Elephant figure has come to dominate the religious ceremonies. Though it needs a stretch of imagination, this was a natural development of the concept of incarnation. It is a sybolization the “The only begotten Son of God” as the following research indicates. In “The Wonder that is Pillaiyarpatti” Sivashankar Chandrasekaran (http://www.angelfire.com/vt2/svtyouthgroup/articles/pillaiyarpatti%5B1 %5D.html ) describes this original concept thus:
