No, basically rajo gunam represents humanly activities, like passion, liking over animate objects, jealously, money minded, sexual arousal, basically everything that humans have. Tamo gunam is more what demons have, like crime, lethargy, not doing your job, illicit affairs, rape, cheating, imbalance. Satva gunam is what God's are supposed to have, more purity, but some pride because they are so pure. You need to leave these qualities, to know that you're closest to God. That's why temples are built the way they are. 

However, in Kali yugam a lot of humans have become more closer with Demon than with God.

I am not listening to any of it unless i read it in some ancient docs or vedas as i dont believe the words of brahmins that are being told and brainwashed for generations.

Ok, Geeta talks about these three gunas.

Faith in what? A piece of rock in a shape or what it signifies?

This is from Agama Shasthra

 

The Absolute Godhead is formless (nirākāra), but meditation, worship and praise of a formless Being is impossible for humans, therefore worship a form (sākāra).

No where in Geeta is it mentioned pray an idol of me. There are versions of nirguna and suguna, with both of them given the same prominence, but the concept of idols is blown out of proportion to what it was intended to be, especially with the fight over a temple.

If you announce on facebook that you’re having a Gita or Veda burning day - not a single Hindu will turn up or even care or if they did it would be to take selfies. The Gita or the printed copy of the Veda is simply a book from a printing press. But do the same with the other Holy Book and see the reaction – there will be world-wide riots and huge damage of property and life. A book will be burned by some crazy pastor in California and dozens of people will be murdered in Afghanistan – is this not some form of idolatry?

True. God is everywhere and he doesnt care about just humans if at all he wants to care..

He created the world, so i believe if there are pujaris in humans, there should be pujaris in ants, cows or pigs as well as god created all of them

If he is a mistake from Big Bang, then sure. 

[odhu_le_macha]

Monotheistic religions have serious lack of desire to understand “others” , There is a tendency to look into others’ through your own prism, a serious mistake. Just like that frog of the well which thought its well was the largest thing there is.

There are 30k verses in Both Islam & Christianity, there is at least 50 times that in Hinduism , you are literally trying to judge a much vaster tradition using a limited perspective.

[Catalpha]

One thing that Hinduism differs from Christianity is the existence of the world. Dasavatharalu represent evolution far better than Adam and Eve and Eve eating an apple. So, please don't make stupid statements like God created the world, because he didn't. Well, not unless he was responsible for the annihilation of matter and anti matter and made a mistake to not annihilate everything.

I am not saying vigraha pooja is the wrong way to worship. But, I am saying vigrahanni poojinchi, nerchukovalsina manchini marichipokudadu. Some of the practices promote ignorance. For example, 10 days of vinayaka chavithi celebrations, 100 feet statues, nimarjanam. These are not what Hinduism is about. E vigrahaarathana perutho, asalu pooja vidhanam enduku chestaro telikunda promoting ignorance in this form is wrong. 

appatlo mana freedom fighter evvaro ee vigraahalu mandapalu 10 days poojalu encourage chesinattu vunnaru, so that manavallantha gather avuthaaru konchem unity vastundi, britisholla mida fight cheyyadaniki, before that ila 10 rojulu pooja ledu anukuntaa
