Hindu Leaders Slam Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop.com
Gwyneth Paltrow has been slammed by Hindu scholars for using religious terminology on her controversial Goop blog.
According to Hindu leader Rajan Zed, the Oscar-winning actress should learn more about the ancient religion before using lines like “nourish the inner aspect” on her lifestyle website.
“There are not many deep, spiritual and philosophical thoughts in the blog, which are an essential part of nourishing the inner self,” Zed fumed this week.
He added, “The actress needs to grow-up and stop writing about mundane topics like ‘Boots by Gucci’, ‘Banana Pancakes’, ‘The Hungry Cat’ and ‘Tweezerman’ – in which she talks about taming the unruly eyebrows of men.”
“Instead, she needs to talk about topics like realizing self, immortality, deeper reality, eternity, soul, inner realms of the mind and spirit, pure consciousness. That’s if she’s truly serious about inner aspect.”

I think Gwyneth P’s site has a lot to offer and has a wide range of topics. We strive to be balanced, and are on this earth and deal with all that life brings,which a lot of it isn’t just about inner issues. Many of her fans are interested in the stuff she has to say…even about boots and pancakes. She’s my fave!!!
