Eight things a Hindu can do While using English Language

1.
Please stop using the term "God fearing" - Hindus never ever fear God. For us, God is everywhere and we are also part of God. God is not a separate entity to fear.
It is integral.

2.
Please do not use the meaningless term RIP when someone dies.Use Om Shanti,Sadhgati or I wish this atma attains moksha/sadhgati/Uthama lokas.Hinduism neither has the concept of "soul" nor its "resting".The terms "Atma" and "Jeeva" are, in a way, antonyms for the word "soul".

3.
Please don't use the word "Mythology" for our historic epics (Ithihaas) Ramayana and Mahabharata. Rama and Krishna are historical heroes, not just mythical characters.

4.
Please don't be apologetic about idol worship and say “Oh, that's just symbolic". All religions have idolatry in kinds or forms - cross, words, letters (calligraphy) or direction.

5.
Let's stop using the words 'idols', 'statues' or 'images' when we refer to the sculptures of our Gods.
Use the terms 'Moorthi' or 'Vigraha'. If words like Karma, Yoga, Guru and Mantra can be in the mainstream, why not Moorthi or Vigraha?

6.
Please don't refer to our temples as prayer halls. Temples are "devalaya" (abode of god) and not "prarthanalaya" (Prayer halls).

7.
Please don't wish your child 'black birthday' by allowing them to blow off the candles that are kept on top of the cake. Don't throw spit on the divine fire(agni dev). Rather ask them to pray, oh divine fire, lead me from darkness to light by lighting a lamp.

And repeat the chants "tamashoma joytiarghamaya". These are strong images that go deep into the psyche.

8.
Avoid using words like,spirituality & materialistic.For hindus,everything is divine.The above words came to India through evangelists who had the concept of science vs religion. On the contrary,in India,sages were scientists & the foundation stone of sanatan dharma was Science
