Mr. Bhattacharya made a very valid point regarding the fear that is instilled in those that practice certain rituals blindly. I came to see more and more people doing a particular ritual without really questioning why they are doing what they were doing, which frustrated me. I then was reminded of a previous Swadharma post, Are we blind to blind faith?, which discussed how there are so many different paths in our religion that no single path is the only way to attaining oneness.

    After reading the blog about the solar eclipse and then reading the Swadharma post on blind faith, I realized that it is wrong of me to be bothered by the spiritual practices of others.
