That is simple. Instead of replying to the points raised by spriritual seeker you were focusing on him instead as if there is something wrong with him personally.
I noticed that there hasn't been given any refutation for spiritualseeker's points instead there was yet another attack this time on puranas. :rolleyes: Wha ray universalism...

Not at all the case. If I weren't a dost, would I have made the post to remind you? :)

Happily. But I request you to reciprocate by showing what is a Mleccha and what is Mleccha scripture from authentic scripture/guru.
Once you show us a quote from an authentic guru who has termed Koran as a revealed scripture.
See my point is that no authentic guru has done that as you assert. That's because by default only scriptures or religions that have vedas as its source need any comments or further examination. The rest has been ignored by our gurus as maleccha scriptures and thus beneath them. No comment or examination is necessary of the maleccha scriptures.
This is why you are having hard time finding one name of an authentic guru.

Which guru has termed Koran as revealed scripture? From what you posted, I don't see anyone that has termed koran as revealed scripture.
When I was reading your original quote about 'authentic' hindu gurus, I thought you meant shakaracrya, ramnuja or madva. I didn't know you were thinking of contemporary gurus/politician/atheist and calling them authentic hindu gurus. Though I should've guessed.
Namaste Satay,
Hmm. Contemporary gurus/politician/atheist? But where is the evidence of mleccha scripture from your authentic gurus?
From Kanchi Paramacharya
The Word of God
We must not distrust the belief that the Vedas are not the work of mere mortals. Followers of other religions too ascribe divine origin to their scriptures. Jesus says that he merely repeats the words of God and, according to Muslims, the prophet speaks the words of Allah. What we call "apauruseya" is revealed text in their case. The word of the Lord has come through the agency of great men to constitute religious texts.
---------------
That Kanchi Pramacharya has not questioned the divine origin of Bible and Koran is enough for me. He has compared "apauruseya" nature of Vedas to the 'Revealed' nature of these. Kanchi Paramacharya has said that "The Truth is One". If one understands this, one would reject anything that is asat as asat -- non-existent.

If you think this way you are thinking OK. Since, frankly speaking I could not comprehend why a Christian who went into Islam should not first refute the Bible? But I understood it as mere playfulness and what I said was not with ill will. What I said, IMO, was not an attack.
It is not easy to decipher scripture, if one is situated in the effect of Lord. Why has Soma 29 wives? Why five Pandavas share one wife? Why Aditya is Lord of 11 or 13 wives? Why Shri Krishna married 8 wives and then also married 16000 wives?
"ekaikasyam dasa dasa
krsno jijanad atmajan ...." (SBG)
According to Srimad Bhagavatam, Krishna married with 16,108 wives, of which eight were chiefincluding Rukmini, Satyabhama, Jambavati, Nāgnajitī, Kālindī, Mādrā, Mitravindā, Bhadrā; Of these He bore ten sons each.
At the hand of a fanatic, this will be enough ammunition for labelling Shri Krishna as a sexual maniac.
Kanchi Paramacharya has in fact warned not to apply History to scripture. The History is merely the effect of Lord kAla, who has 11 or 13 wives, but history is not Lord kAla.
Om Namah Shivaya
