Talk:Pashupata Shaivism

Sock problem
These edits were a good faith move of material from Pashupati, apparently because it was the "wrong Pashupati". If you look at the history of that article, the edits come from, one of many sockpuppets of. The sockfarm, which is large, has persistently presented a religious POV and often misrepresentend sources etc to achieve it.

I am going to try to remove everything related to it from this article. If someone wants to check and then reinstate any or all of it then that's fine by me but I do think it should not be reinstated without a thorough check. And I do think that anyone interested in this article needs to be aware that the sockfarm is not dead and can return to articles. - Sitush (talk) 14:00, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

Rituals of Pashupata Shaivism
The claims made in the section 'Rituals' malign the Pashupata Shaivism tradition and further is not verified by local sources. In Hindu Dharma of which Pashupata Shaivism is a path, Rituals and spiritual practices are not done to acquire merit. This concept exists in buddhism not in Hinduism. Further citation is needed for "Postures involved absurd actions..."
