Gyro, If you have seen my tone throughout the thread, the acceptance and denials will come to light. The acceptance is that SD primarily tries to explain Nature and Societial cohesiveness. THe Denial is it is given to the humans by some unknown with super mighty powers. The acceptance is the way the Nature was described primarily was by attributing human actions like phenom, to make it understandable and follow by the "known and the unknown folks". The denial is, this method of propgating knowledge is only within this "everlasting" Indian sub continent.
Also IMHO, it is trivializing the effort of the composer, to render portions of a sloka or mantra and expect\ attribute the result to that part. one has to know what is said before and what is said after and as a whole. This is in no way digging Hari's in particular, but rather a very generic observation.
I remember, when we (as in fellow humans) did so much of "varuna japam", standing in neck deep water ( in a newly constructed Tank) in Ayodhya mandapam(Ram samaj) in the 80's we never got the rain we wanted. But now, I doubt they are doing it but rain is in plenty. (BTW on a side note, heard Chennai is flooded. Hope you guys are all safe.)
