the hindu religion is basically a very conservative religion. It involves several gods,festivals,prayers,rituals and other such stuff. It is actually quite a fun religion too. I am hindu, and i love my religion.

Hinduism tells me that the Divine manifested everything and everyone in the universe and that the Divine dwells in everything and everyone..thus I would have no problem offering worship to this man, because I would also be worshipping the Divine within this man. Each time a Hindu greets another Hindu we say Namaste which means the divine in me bows to the divine in you. It is said that whenever two people meet, God meets God. I do not need money to worship the Divine within all manifested things, although it would be no different than other blessings that have come about through my actions (karma).

Christiasns think they are worshipping the God while Hindus and Buddhist worship false God.\n\nAt times they moderate it a bit and insted of outright calling you a Satan worshipper they tell you Only christianity is true while Hinduism Budhism etc are only Partially true.\n\nThey expect you to convert because they have got money. And if you do not accept that wait till they get as much number as in North India , where they already do get converts on gun point.\n\nAnd wait. There is more. Do you know that when Christ will return, he will do ethnic cleansing and kill all non Christians. Very Christian thought indeed.\n\nIn 1984, the then Episcopal Bishop of Newark (NJ), John Shelby Spong visited India and wrote the following:\n \n\n“what I learned about Hinduism enhanced my appreciation for this ancient religious tradition. I saw a beauty in it that was enviable, and I found many points where Christians and Hindus are seeking to deal with the same human needs in remarkably similar ways”. \n\nHe admired the absence of the “spirit of missionary imperialism” in Hinduism and questioned whether or not the “Christian claims to possess infallibility or ultimate truth are not signs of a brittle pettiness that cannot endure”. \n\n (source: Proselytization In India: An Indian Christian's Perspective - By C. Alex Alexander).

Hindus believe in a variety of things, such that it is hard to classify Hindu beliefs.  But in general, Hindus believe that there is one God, but that this One God has made Himself/Herself known in many ways, through various forms and names.\nGod is believed to be in all things, although not the same as material objects.  He is IN all, but he is not ALL.  (so it's not really pantheism).\n\nSince God is in all, this is why many Hindus believe that God can be worshiped by means of murtis, or images.  God is present within the image, though not the same as the image itself.\n\nHindus believe in reincarnation, and that salvation from the cycle of rebirths (samsara) is possible.  There are many paths to salvation in Hinduism.  There is the path of knowledge, where one learns the scriptures and the philosophy as a means to breaking free from the constraints of human existence.  There is the path of devotion, which is just living a life of devotion to God, where one considers God as his close companion and friend.\nThere is a path of work, where one offers all his actions to God.  He does what is right, works hard, and is not himself attached to the results.  In other words, he does not work just to gain money or prestige, but only for the sake of following God.\nThere are also methods such as meditation, and yoga and other spiritual practices.

this is for stranger,well atleast hindus worship everything ,they are not arrogant and ignorant like you.You should'nt comment on something you don't know about.Being a hindu myself I know that there are many kinds of hindus,namely,Shaivites,Vaishnavites,and many more I can't keep count of all the sects.Each hindu sect has their own rights,rituals,following,culture and beliefs according to their geography and origin.Hinduism is one the oldest religions,which originated before Christ.It is believed that the vedic followings,ie,the followings of the vedas,that would be books of vast knowledge containing everything from the strategies of war,medicine which includes ayurveda and yoga,sciences of the elements and knowledge of the cosmos,originated with the aryans.Hinduism has many facets known and unknown.Hinduism or any religion as a matter of fact are ways of life, one can adopt a particular way or religion,it is what we have inside us that makes us good or bad.No religion is bad ,all of them have good teachings,it us humans and followers,politicians,clergy or people of power that manipulate them to their own benifit.Humanity is the greatest religion one can follow,It is not our religion that makes us good or bad,it is what we are at heart that decides,who or what we are.

Hinduism\n\nAccording to historians, the origin of Hinduism dates back to 5000 or more years. The word "Hindu" is derived from the name of River Indus, which flows through northern India. In ancient times the river was called the 'Sindhu', but the Persians who migrated to India called the river 'Hindu', the land 'Hindustan' and its inhabitants 'Hindus'. Thus the religion followed by the Hindus came to be known as 'Hinduism'.

Most Hindus believe in a supreme cosmic spirit called Brahman that is worshipped in many forms, represented by individual deities such as Vishnu, Shiva and Shakti. Hinduism centers around a variety of practices that are meant to help one experience the divinity that is everywhere and realize the true nature of the Self.

Everyone is equal in the eyes of God, whether Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Jew, or any other faith.\n\nThere is nothing in Hindu scriptures which says people of other faiths cannot enter temples for worship. It is only individuals who create their own interpretations of scriptures and mis-guide others for ulterior motives.\n\nQuote from Bhagvad Gita:\nvidya vinaya sampanne\nbrahmane gavi hastini\nsuni caiva sva pake ca\npanditah sama darsinah\n\ntranslation:\nThe humble sages, by virtue of true knowledge, see with equal vision a learned and gentle brahmin, a cow, an elephant, a dog and also an outcaste.\n\nSo, go before any God/Allah/Ishwar/Khodai with a pure heart and then it does not matter whether you visit a Hindu temple, a Muslim masjid or a Christian church.\n\nHope that answers your question.
