Dear All,
I want to introduce myself as krishna. I am currently studying engineering
in chennai. I have joined this group recently as I wanted to learn about
my religion. Having lived all my life in north, I have been unfortunate
enough to miss out learning these things during my childhood. But I look
forward to  my education in the days to come.

I have a few queries. I apologize if my questions are misplaced in this
group. Please tell me if it is so.

If god is beyond any description capable by the human mind then why do we
resort to idol worship. Arent we limiting god to something which we can
describe when he much much more than that?

I wanted to learn the meaning of the veda mantras here. I approached some
people here in chennai and everybody insisted that I first memorise them
and only then would they be willing to explain. Why is it so important for
me first memorise them before trying to understand? Can I really being to
understand them without a guru?

Again, please excuse me if I have offended anybody. It is out of ignorance
that I am asking these questions.

Sincerely,
Krishna
