Sewdas Sadhu Shiva Mandir, the famous Trinidad Hindu temple in the sea at Waterloo , was attacked by vandals on Friday. Idols of Lord Krishna, Lord Ganesh, Hanuman and Goddess Durga were damaged in the attack. The doors, windows and other items in temple have been damaged and the total damage is estimated to be around $100,000. Desecration of the Temple in the sea was the motive as no valuables were robbed. Bainnati Rajkoomar, caretaker of the temple, said she closed the temple around 6 p.m. on Friday and when she opened the building yesterday morning, she was shocked by what she saw. "I was shocked and sad to see the state of the building. I could not believe my eyes. Four murtis were [bundled] together on the floor, the whole place was desecrated and there were signs that an attempt was made to burn the building." Rajkoomar said it was not the first time people had damaged the temple: "It was vandalized many times before but this time was the worst,"

In Sanatana Dharma, there is no single life, no single judgment, or eternal punishment. There is more than one life and, of course, there is no single judgment. In fact, there is no judgment at all as such, for the idea is to help and not to judge and condemn. The inner dynamics of incarnation is not reward or punishment but self-improvement, and ultimately self-discovery and self-recovery, moksha. Ram Swarup Explanation of the above quote: In Sanatana Dharma, also known as Hinduism, the concept of life and existence extends beyond a single lifetime. Instead, it embraces the idea of reincarnation, the belief that the soul undergoes multiple births and deaths, each contributing to its spiritual evolution. This worldview rejects the notion of a singular judgment day or eternal punishment commonly found in some other religious traditions. Central to the philosophy of Sanatana Dharma is the understanding that the purpose of life is not merely to be judged or condemned but to progress
