Defence Minister Rajnath Singh performs Shastra Puja of Rafale Jet in Paris

[Soumitra]

First u build something and then u worship them...? U people made ur own gods

Yes. That is part of our culture

 

[Sid Dogra]

Shastra Puja is not worshipping the weapon; it is honouring something that becomes a part of one's own body and soul as a warrior. It is an ancient tradition, where warriors use to honour their weapons as gift of gods and go to battle for their kingdoms.

Worship doesn't mean surrendering; it can also be thankfulness to gods for granting something that will protect oneself in a battle.

Just for information of our Pakistani friends. I am new here and assume that you are misunderstand the concept as "worshipping the Rafale".

It isn't.

 

[Safriz]

We should build him a shrine in Pakistan with IAF MIG parts .

You are speaking to someone who would happily worship a rat crossing a street. Let's keep it civil and keep religion out of discussion. Especially because our religion cannot to be compared to 'theirs'.

Bhai bhaiso ke aage been kyu baja raha hai. These concepts won't go inside the heads of people who have been taught from the very start and believe that only their way of worship is correct.

At one point in history his forefathers used to worship Tipu Sultan's "rocket" and Baburs "canon balls" as well..

This Rajnath should better be checking that ejection things are properly oiled.

 

[SIPRA]

They seem to worship everything and anyone at whim

Yes. Some poster was saying worshipping of tools, instruments and equipment. What would a pros worship?

This Rajnath should better be checking that ejection things are properly oiled.

Don't worry. As soon as Rafale will become operational; indigenous technology would be used to make ejection as easy and as swift as possible. This intricate job cannot be left to the original manufacturer; since they wouldn't have much experience in it.

As per my understanding of Hinduism, tools used by man is imbibed with the power and grace of god by offering it to the almighty.
So everything can be imbibed with the power of god because it is god almighty that has made everything.
Also you cannot disrespect another’s faith in Islam.
