I find it interesting that nobody's posted on the Gita or the Vedas, the ramayana or the Mahabharata, the yogas or the gunas, vaishnavas or shaivas... among many other things.

I am pleasantly surprised that no one posted on those texts, but rather on the Upanishads instead! I applaud this because it is important to focus on the origins of such an old religion and not on the later iterations and instantiations. I personally am not happy with some of these later iterations because they are in essence pollutants of the original word and message.
Sorry, I may sound like a bigot, but I can back my claims. And I am certainly not attacking someone else's religion. I would dare not attack something that I don't understand. I grew up in India in an Hindu family. I am well aware of these texts.
I study world religions and philosophies and have rediscovered the original Hindu religion. It is a thing of beauty! Although I do not practice any particular religion, I do respect everyone of them and attribute credit where its due.
