I am cracking up here. Really?

Fun parties with good dancing have nothing to do with Hinduism. But it has everything to do with how Indians throw celebratory parties.   And yup, Indian vegetarian food rocks (especially with all the regional variations), but surely you are not discounting all the tandoori stuff? The lamb rogan josh and butter chicken? Hmmm?  The goat biryani and the fish fry masala? [/quote]

Yeah, I kind of laughed at this, too.  All Hindus aren't vegetarian, PP. [b] And, actually, my Hindu husband thinks that celebratory parties are the WORST things about his culture and exemplify waste and materialism.[/b]  That being said, I get where you were going with this thread, and think it's great.

Indian culture is big on hospitality, so all Indian hosts will try and make sure that their guests only get the best food and drinks.  At least those who can afford will not scrimp on it.

I love that aspect of Indian culture. Good food is always welcome.  I also like the dancing and the music.  I find it joyous. Again  this is not Hindu religion but the culture of the entire subcontinent.  I find that I also like any culture that puts the enjoyment and comfort of their guests first.  I do not find that materialistic at all. I am quite surprised that your Hindu DH thinks so. There is no religious compulsion to throw these parties, you know? Unlike other religions, you have to do absolutely nothing to be a Hindu. You do not have to go to a temple or pray etc.

I like the fact that Hinduism believes that you will get back the exact Karma (deed) that you do.  So, you cannot say that I killed a person, but I accepted Vishnu in my life and now I am forgiven. [/quote]
