thinking about the christian and islamic religions, I can simple not
compare with the religion of Veda. Me, as christian, I cannot find in
the Bible questions of such nature. If these philosophical questions
existed before christianity ( and they existed, see just Plato, Seneca
for instance) one can just consider the big religions as christianity
and islam as "wrong" events in our history, events which made the most
part of the population to become a non-mediting human being since
there , in these relgions, everything was answered simply due the
existence of God.

Please consider this comment just as what it is. Just a comparation
with no intention to offend someon's religious feelings.
