    Hinduism is a relentless pursuit after truth and if today it has become moribund, inactive, irresponsive to growth, it is because we are fatigued. As soon as the fatigue is over, Hinduism will burst forth upon the world with a brilliance perhaps never known before." (Young India, 24-4-1924)
    "What the divine author of the Mahabharata said of his great creation is equally true of Hinduism. Whatever of substance is contained in any other religion is always to be found in Hinduism, and what is not contained in it is insubstantial or unnecessary." (ibid., 27-9-1925)
    "Hinduism is like the Ganga, pure and unsullied at its source but taking in its course the impurities in the way. Even like the Ganga it is beneficent in its total effect. It takes a provincial form in every province, but the inner substance is retained everywhere." (ibid., 8-4-1926)
    These immortal quotes of Mahatma Gandhi, in short sum up what Hinduism is all about. Hinduism is not a religion but a way of life. Yes a way of life for human beings as designed by the creator himself.:)

    if you dwell upon this the real meaning becomes clear

    Hinduism differs from Christianity and other Western religions in that it does not have a single founder, a specific theological system, a single system of morality, or a central religious organization. It consists of "thousands of different religious groups that have evolved in India since 1500 BCE."

    I got that somewhere.

    True. No one god theory. Multiple gods with sons of gods, brothers of gods, sisters of gods, nephew, niece, step mother, etc etc..

    Hierarchy of gods!

    that the natural process of evolution,the human mind is such that it canno't be enslaved,if you try to enslave it mutates into something morbib,Hinduism does not do that the mind is always free to discover and expand.

    One reason why i like Hinduism is because they learned from their mistakes and corrected most of their flaws like the Sati system , not allowing a certain sect. of people into the temples and and so on. That's a good thing!

    that the way to evolve,one should not bind the mind to one type of thinking-the unknown will always remain the unknown what you know is the known

    You the funniest of them all. Someone just showing stupidity of humanity. Who are you to say what is god and forms of god. Mental retardation. One god, no god, many gods. Then there is what is the form of god or gods.

    Stupidity.

    The idea of god sitting up a tree eating bananas and flinging his shit around makes me laugh. It's a funny little religion with funny little gods. it's like what would happen if we let a child make up a religion.
