Concept of God in Hinduism

Hindu Students Association and Hinduism Today, brings you series of videos to educate Hindus, and non-Hindus on basics of Hinduism. It is our intentions to make this videos brief, and easy to digest.

The goal is to assist young Hindu's learn about Hinduism, and to dis-spell common misconception about Hinduism

This first video addresses the question, "Why does Hinduism have so many Gods?" A quick answer to this question is very simple, it goes, "Hindus all believe in one Supreme God who created the universe. She (or He, OR whatever your experience makes you see the supreme reality as) is all-pervasive. She created many Gods, highly advanced spiritual beings, to be Her helpers." From What is Hinduism? by Editors of Hinduism Today

@ThePedmart277 u don't want to offend anyone & then u call us satanic? How much do u know about our faith? Do u ever see Hindus go about other religious videos & abuse others? We don't teach Hate here - apparantly yours does - let go of this hate - the world is in such a sorry situation because of this hate engendered by religions like urs

[ramaraksha01]

Karma & Rebirth means We are ACCOUNTABLE for our actions. We take Responsibility.

Karma & Rebirth means that we enjoy the Gift of Life, over & over again!

Karma & Rebirth means there is no place for a Hell, no sadistic God running a torture chamber

Karma & Rebirth means that We EARN everything. A Hindu must never beg nor take anything that is unearned

Karma & Rebirth means we Hindus earn Praise FROM God! Anyone fool can praise God, but Blessed are the Hindus that aim to earn Praise FROM God!

Thank you, this was extremely helpful and insightful.

[ThePedmart277]

we all due respect, I don't want to ofend anyone. But this religion was born in Babylon during nimroad era. Nimroad was a descendent from noah. HINDUISM is Satan influence in this planet.

Good work.This is especially good for beginners who has desire to know more about 'themselves'.Commentary on this video is remarkably well to the standard of the video.Vedic God is 'Prapancha Purusha' has no form and 'Nirguna Parabrahma'-but can manifest in any form anywhere.Wish you could bring about more and more on Dharma- Brahma bless you.

@abhishekpathak82 "Aum Namah is the original sholka and aum is part of each sholka for the gaurdians and messengers(krishna,ram,durga,s­­ai,parshuram,gurunanak,mahavi­r­,buddha)"

i suppose by mahavir you mean the jain god, can you explain that further?

[charbi88]

fact at 1:26 & 1:27 are wrong

[abhishekpathak82]

hindus only worship Aum the shapeless colurless divine entity

Shivlingam is the pillar of light from which 9 gaurdians(bhagwan) namely ganesha,shiva,brahma,vishnu,pa­rvati,saraswati,lakshmi,santos­hiand anapurna

Aum Namah is the original sholka and aum is part of each sholka for the gaurdians and messengers(krishna,ram,durga,s­ai,parshuram,gurunanak,mahavir­,buddha)
