Shaivism is a branch of Hinduism that mentions Shiva as the supreme God; reference 82 mentions Yama as Yamaraj. Srikanta's views on karma are important and not mentioned in your citation. Raj2004 (talk) 12:26, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

The article does read like sermon sometimes, because it is a religious topic and it is partially built from sermons given by those who are considered an authority on the subject. It is not possible to completely avoid that without loosing some information, especially when it is not clear how to understand some explanations in the first place. There are priests studying Bible for 2000 years and what is the meaning of some sections is still questioned. Now, how can you change the style, if you can not be sure, what the meaning is? I think that choosing the lowest common denominator, the man with the slowest mind and least understanding, as the reference of interpretation would not be a good idea.
