WHAT IS HINDUISM ?

In 1952, British philosopher Arnold Toynbee addressed the Philosophical Society of Edinburgh University. He predicted the world would still be dominated by the West at the close of the 20th century. But in the 21st century, "India would conquer her conquerors." Pre-empting the place held by technology, religion will be restored to its earlier importance, and the center of world happenings will wander back from the shores of the Atlantic to the East, where civilization originated thousands of years ago.

Hinduism is a universal religion and not an organized religion. Instead, it is personal and a nonprophetic religion. Compared to other beliefs or faiths, there are more than 500 prophets in Hinduism. These individuals are called seers, rishis, saints or divine human beings. In Hinduism, humans are not divided into groups, believers and nonbelievers. There is no doctrine or dogma in this system. There is no intermediary or prophet between human being and supernatural being (God, Brahman, Vishnu, Agni, Kali, Saraswati, Vayu, Indra). Sages refer to the name of God with different names, but the truth is the same.

Great video, except it says that "Europe was victimized by a Semitic faith and lost its Pagan culture". Funny way of putting down a whole world religion. Also the pagan culture was not that great either. And the higher aspects of Christianity are compatible with Hinduism at a transcendental level; plus not all Hindu schools of thought do not teach the same things about the destiny of souls,etc....

@rashidaq "Hindu" come from the name the Aryan people gave themselves after years of living on the Indus River.

Islam is the religion of peace, truth and justice. Islam never preaches killings or wrong doings, it says we should love all Allah's creation. But there are a lots of people who have maligned its image, that includes both Muslims as well as non-Muslims. Some Muslims who have not understood Islam use it as a tool for doing bad things. Non-Muslims who don'd have any knowledge of Islam and Quaran tarnish its image by telling lies to the world.

I saw non-Islamic religions now absorbed many Islamic teachings/values, hindu is an example, all non-Islamic religions had many distorsion from the truth way from Al mighty God....Islam come to make it right back, God send the last prophet - Muhammad with Holy book Quran that God will guard this book from changing etc until the end of the world.

the ancient greeks were were quite familiar with the word INDUS and INDOI their way of pronoucing SINDHU and SINDHIS,

CHINESE were also familiar with the word, sometimes in their own variations on it , such as SHIN-TU . it may thus be said word HINDU had acquired a national connotation.

jalander876- which means ( rashidaq) since the river INDUS is in pakistan you too must be a HINDU according to the ancient world , ( long time before islam )

the ancient iranians did not coin this word out of thin air ,it was simply their way of pronouncing the word SINDHU the name of the mighty indus river, which has all ways been a major landmark for travellers to this country from the north and the west- cont
