Hi All MHO,
I would like to appreciate you peoples, sending me so many massages saying want to know about my QUOTE : Hinduism is more a way of life than a method of worship.
Here with i have explained the same in detail.
first i would like to explain you about............. What is Hinduism?
Hinduism is referred to as Sanatana Dharma, the eternal faith. Hinduism is based on the practice of Dharma, the code of life. Hinduism has no founder, anyone who practices Dharma can call himself a Hindu. The greatness of Hinduism is its Freedom of Thoughts and Actions.
(Sanatana Dharma) Righteousness Forever was the original name of Hinduism. It was Persians who invaded India during 6th century B.C. who gave the name Hinduism meaning the religion of people living near the Indus river. In Persian the letter H and S are pronounced almost the same so they mistook the word Sindhu (Sanskrit name for Indus) to H and then started calling Hindus and Hinduism.
Now what i feel you would like to know about............ Who is a Hindu?Anyone who search after truth is a Hindu. There is One and only God and One Truth. The very first veda of Hindus named Rig proclaim, "Ekam Sat, Viprah Bahudha Vadanti". (There is only one truth, only men describe it in different ways).
What are the main ideas that Hindu religion professes?
now you will know about my QUOTE :
Hinduism is more a way of life than a method of worship.
Hinduism is more a way of life than a specific religion. In Hinduism one can find all religions of the world. Various religions like Buddhism, Sikhism emerged from it. The most important aspect of Hinduism is being truthful to oneself. Hinduism has no monopoly on ideas. It is open to all. Hindus believe in one God expressed in different forms. For them, God is timeless and form less entity. Hindus believe in eternal truths and these truths are opened to anyone who seeks them, even if he or she is ignorant of Hindu scripture or ideas. This religion also professes Non-violence - "Ahimsa Paramo Dharma" - Non violence is the highest duty. True Ahimsa implies curtsy, kindness, hospitality, humanity and love.
I know now you will think about the one GOD aspect, If there is only One God, Why Hindus worship many God forms?
During the time of Upanishads, when the Hindu Rishis (scientists of that day) said there is only One God - Brahma, they found out that laymen could not understand that concept. So they wrote Itihasas (epics) and Puranas [mythological stories] filled with many gods, with the concept that when you worship any God form, you are actually worshiping one and only God Brahma. Lord Krishna reiterated that point by saying, "Call me by what ever name you like; Worship me in any form you like; All that goes to One and Only Supreme Reality." So a Hindu when worshiping any God form is actually worshiping One and Only God Brahma.
