In a country afflicted with deep-rooted beliefs in superstitions perpetuated by Godmen and the blind adherence to them, Narendra Nayak is a breath of fresh air and the individual responsible for eradicating such beliefs by his rationale and skepticism. He has vociferously debunked the myths perpetuated by the "Godmen" and does so brilliantly again in this talk. In a country afflicted with deep-rooted beliefs in superstitions perpetuated by Godmen and the blind adherence to them, Narendra Nayak is a breath of fresh air and the individual responsible for eradicating such beliefs by his rationale and skepticism. He has vociferously debunked the myths perpetuated by the "Godmen". Along with being a professor of biochemistry and running an NGO- 'Aid without religion' he has also starred in the National Geographic television show 'Is it real?', he has held more than 2000 demonstrations advocating scientific temperament in various countries. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Haha. Because he says the concept of scientific temper originally belongs to India and so what we have in India that is superstition, we will accept as scientific temper.

Mind debunking some Is'lamic "enlightenment" ? Oh wait! I guess you are already enlightened about the possible outcomes! ;) 🔹Qu'ran 9:29 “Fight (Qa'tal) those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - [Qa'tal] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled.” 🔹Qu'ran 47:4 “So when you meet those who disbelieve, strike [their] necks until, when you have inflicted slaughter upon them, then secure their bonds, and either [confer] favor afterwards or ransom [them] until the war lays down its burdens. That [is the command]. And if Allah had willed, He could have taken vengeance upon them [Himself], but [He ordered armed struggle] to test some of you by means of others. And those who are killed in the cause of Allah - never will He waste their deeds.”

Narendra Nayak. Don't act foolish in the name of being rationalist. Go and feed some street dogs or other helpless animals than just denying presence of hindu God, self realised souls and their contribution to society. Atleast they teach yoga and meditation and bring peace and harmony in people's lives unlike you.

@Paurikhal ki pushpa chhori Even atheist can't deny the presence of a greater universal power than themselves which we call it as god. Miracles do happen when you believe in god. Mythological stories do inspire us to live a life of wisdom, knowledge , sanctity ,peace and bliss. Every story will have inner meaning to it which needs to be understood. Do you think the contribution for enormous scientific development that has taken place from stone age to today's modern era is only from atheists?
