Hinduism is the oldest organized religion in the world. It is the Sanatana Dharma, the Eternal Law. It has no known origin and no founders - it is a synthesis of various Indian cultures and practices from as early as 4000 BCE.
Hinduism differs from Christianity and other Abrahamic religions in that it does not have:
>A single founder,
>A specific theological system,
>A single concept of deity,
>A single holy text,
>A single system of morality,
>A central religious authority,
>The concept of a prophet.
Hinduism is neither polytheistic, monotheistic, trinitarian or henotheistic, yet it is all at the same time.
The development of Hinduism was influenced by many invasions over thousands of years. The major influences occurred when light-skinned, nomadic "Aryan" Indo-European tribes invaded Northern India (circa 1500 BCE) from the steppes of Russia and Central Asia. They brought with them their religion of Vedism. These beliefs mingled with the more advanced, indigenous Indian native beliefs, often called the "Indus valley culture."
>Rulers will become unreasonable: they will levy taxes unfairly. >Rulers will no longer see it as their duty to promote spirituality, or to protect their subjects: they will become a danger to the world. >People will start migrating, seeking countries where wheat and barley form the staple food source. >At the end of Kali-yuga, when there exist no topics on the subject of God, even at the residences of so-called saints and respectable gentlemen of the three higher varnas [temperament] and when nothing is known of the techniques of sacrifice, even by word, at that time the Lord will appear as the supreme chastiser.
Kali Yuga with regard to human relationships
>Avarice and wrath will be common. Humans will openly display animosity towards each other. Ignorance of dharma will occur. >People will have thoughts of murder with no justification and will see nothing wrong in that. >Lust will be viewed as socially acceptable and sexual intercourse will be seen as the central requirement of life. >Sin will increase exponentially, while virtue will fade and cease to flourish. >People will take vows and break them soon after. >People will become addicted to intoxicating drinks and drugs. >Teachers will no longer be respected and their students will attempt to injure them. Their teachings will be insulted, and followers of Kama(lust) will wrest control of the mind from all human beings.
Why the intense idol worsip? Going to indian peoples house and gas stations its nice they display it but the actual forms and colors looks like a school kid made .
Also doesnt look like the common poo citizen. If pic related your western neighbors have look like that for thousands of years, wouldn't your idols have evolved to like south asian instead
Wyatt Flores
>the queen sent me out to die and I still lock her feet They look like people from the Indian subcontinent not particularly south Asian and idol worship is just a representation of God it depicts our pagan esque heritage, worship of ancestors and such

Of all the major religions
judaism and christian originated in israel and has spread trans nationally , same islam with arabian peninsula and buddhism in india
hinduism obviously india and spread to SE asia for a while but lost followers you had in what is now modern day indonesia. I can see myself accepted as the other main as above but maybe it needs a theolgical reform. it feels more like daoism case with china.

If none of these
>A single founder,
>A specific theological system,
>A single concept of deity,
>A single holy text,
>A single system of morality,
>A central religious authority,
>The concept of a prophet.
then how is hinduism not more like african tropical jungle spirituality
Austin Moore
Its an Indo-European religion. Nordic paganism, Greek paganism, Slavic paganism, etc. are more similar to Hinduism than Judaism. One example is the clear parallels between Thor, Zeus, Jupiter, Perun, Perkunas, and Indra.
Caleb Ward
Focus on the word single, it doesn't lack the concept of most of the points you mentioned they are just not singular in nature
Jace Young
To be fair Buddism is Hinduism for people outside the subcontinent, it isn't a sepreate religion atleast in our country
Caleb Long
Why do you even bother promoting Hinduism here? Sup Forums is just a white supremacist echo chamber; to them you will never be more than your skin color. Dharma is not with these "people".

>national socialism = dharma What in the flying fuck are you smoking? Dharma is greentexted hereafter. >includes the right conduct toward one’s parents, siblings and children, the right conduct between husband and wife, and the conduct between biologically unrelated people Nazis literally require, with criminal penalty, the outright denunciation of criticism of the nazi party by ones parents, denunciation of jewish associates and friends, etc. This is 100% incompatible with dharma. >It is the Sanatana Dharma, the Eternal Law. It has no known origin and no founders Nationalism is incompatible with dharma. Is the eternal law the law of the Supreme Consciousness, or is it whatever Trump/Modi decide should be the law at any given time? >Nothing is higher than Dharma. The weak overcomes the stronger by Dharma, as over a king National socialism is again incompatible, because national socialism places the nation-state over dharma in importance. It is more important to support the state than be righteous in nazism. >harma and Adharma do not go around saying, ‘‘That is us.’’ Neither do gods, nor gandharvas, nor ancestors declare what is Dharma and what is Adharma. Dharma is a self-inquiry and a self-evaluation. Nazism is top-down, from the fuhrer to the commoners, with no room for interpretation or debate.

>Jewish association Hitler guards were Jewish, they wanted the problematic Jews out
Dharma is your duty towards the universe, the caste system plays a very important role in dharma therefore a hierarchy already exists, self enquires and self evaluation were reserved for the vanaprastha and sannyasa ashram, brahmacharya and grihastra ashram place a importance on community more than self
Alexander Rodriguez
>Jews It's not about race. Criminalizing the non-voluntary denunciation of a friend for speech crimes against the state, especially without due process of law, is entirely against dharma. It's the basis of the 5th amendment and it existed in Mahabharat as well. Just as Arjuna's karma was to kill his former teachers in the name of righteousness, so too should one be protected when preventing the killing of a person the individual finds to be righteous.
>dharma is your duty to the universe Exactly. Does this duty come before or after your duty to the national state?
>hierarchy & caste system This is besides the point. A "caste" system will exist regardless of what "equality" policies you put in place, because people are inherently unequal, and their situation in life further compounds that inequality. However, dharma, as your duty to the universe, also increases as your innate capabilities increase. The extreme example would be Rama, who is literally the incarnation of Vishnu as a Kshatriya, and his duty to the universe was to slay Ravana himself and bring back the laws of dharma. Every person has their own individual role to play, and dharma deeply frowns upon those who seek to rob the individual of their autonomy.
John Myers
okfair enough . help me out here what is the "punch line" that other systems have like or "salvation" in christ or the really strong and simple cut out the bs 'oneness' in islam .// "nothingness" "yin yang" ... there has to be something '"karma" ? or is hinduism just too fuzzy with lore
Michael Lopez
Characterizing brahmacharya and grihastra as "for the community" is backwards; the stages are for the individual to fully develop themselves, both as individuals and as individuals in society. It is not a blanket statement that the productive years of a good Hindu's life be in service to the state or community; rather the highest duty of brahmacharya is knowledge; grihastra is familial security. Even within these periods of life, righteousness and self-inquiry are still encouraged - otherwise how would Drona have distinguished between his pupils or Rama distinguished from Bharat?
Matthew Martin
A man can only be truly free under facism, and I made my point regarding non voluntary denunciation of someone for me a crime against the state is a crime against humanity your thoughts my vary but arjun was still fighting for hastinapur not the world as a whole, Hinduism is very much facism
Jackson Evans
Yeah you could always become a sanyasi, the ashram apply to the everyday man, it does put an emphasis on society than it does on rejecting society
Gavin Parker
>punch line Nirvana/Moksha (the union of the self-soul/consciousness with the universal/supreme consciousness)
>how do you get there Like OP said, Hinduism and Buddhism are two sides of the same coin, with Hinduism having more canonical texts dealing with the actual day-to-day governance of a society. The basic principle is dharma. Dharma is the universal consciousness, fate, and righteousness/justice all at the same time. In a sense, Hinduism is a "winners win" philosophy - the victor gets to write history, and so will always be remembered as being "just". At the same time, if he is not actually just in the present, Hinduism maintains that dharma is not with him and in time dharma will unseat the unrighteous and restore itself and justice (you can think of it in the same line as the Declaration of Independence, i.e. "we are endowed by our creator... but the king has unrightfully seized... therefore we are justified in armed revolution").
Joseph Perez
Dharma is your duty towards the universe, karma are the actions you perform, the closer your karma is to your dharma the easier is to escape the cycle of life and death and be one with the cosmic conciseness
Samuel Scott
>truly free >fascism What? The state literally tells you what your job is, how to do it, how much you should be paid, etc. Fascism is completely antithetical to dharma. What the hell do you think the Kauravas were that made the Pandavas declare war in the first place? Even worse, fascism is just as much of a lunatic fringe dream as gommunism. You really mean to tell me there is some allknowing and powerful entity, person or government, that is better at telling me what is best for me than I am? I've always wanted to meet an incarnation of Vishnu in the flesh, please tell me where I can find him.
Carter Gomez
Yes that is why the caste system has a Kshatriya caste that is supposed to rule lmao, only facism can set you free from slave master and make you a master of your own destiny under the guise of democracy /lobertarians you just slave to make the 'elites' rich
Hudson Carter
And even if you meet his avatar in person you won't know till he leaves us, that is the nature of lila
Camden Lee
This is literally so fucking backwards it's mindboggling. >fascism is a failed ideology (invented by whites) from the 1930s >Hinduism is the oldest extant religion in the world, and Western society took 11,700 years to reach the same principles of governance >Ipickfascism.jpg The entire point of karma is that the individual is simultaneously free to choose their path and bound by their karma to that path; governments only get in the way of that process.
For lack of a better way to put it, Fascism is Islam, e.g. burkhas and banning women in public; stoning for violators. Hinduism is allowing your women to be degenerate if they want, and then judging them accordingly. Consequently, the women voluntarily choose not to be degenerate, to the point of even arriving at the same conclusion - unhonorable women die. In Islam, the community stones the woman. In Hinduism, the woman voluntarily throws herself on her husbands pyre, or otherwise commits suicide. Ours is much more cruel, and that much more beautiful as a result.

I was always a fan of the practises of the old Vedic religion, rather than Hinduism
Anthony Jackson
Ah yes all the kings we had for thousands of years were just prank, facism is modern day monarchy a more practical approch to it if you will
Joshua Edwards
And you're bluepilled on sati that's not how it worked the women were always allowed to remarry even he queens after their husbands it's that some wives choose to unite with their husbands as life and death are temporary
Brandon Evans
Were exactly do you find these practices?
Liam King
There is a very strict code of ethics involved in kshatriya governance and you know as well as I do that Indians will get away with as much as they can without angering their superiors; kshatriya governance is not at all fascist in that respect (fascism should be able to get shit done). Rather, we know a good kshatriya king because he is able to get shit done despite the bureaucracy, because his dharma is that strong (the idea is that good).
>lila Explain Krishna. He knew and he let everybody know (especially Arjun) that he was divine. And Hanuman's case is debatable, depending on whether you like Hanuman or Rama more.

>sati It still happened. Some women choose to remarry, some women choose to commit suicide. As opposed to western whores, who remarry when their husband is alive yet still keep the same bull. And drive their husbands to suicide. To me, Hinduism is the superior moral and philosophical code in this instance.
You're bluepilled on fascism. Nobody ever got anything from government except for Hindu fairy tales. There are no righteous kings any more, so the next best thing is no king at all.

The most probable 'writers' of the Vedas were harrapans, the Vedas mention event that took place 10,000 years ago and the migration happened around 5000 years ago the migration did bring a lot of changes into the religion but isn't it's defining factor

>Kshatriya rule as opposed to fascism If you compare governments characterized by the word "fascist" to notable Hindu kings, e.g. Ashoka, Krishnadevaraya, there are very substantial differences in their approach to governance and politics.
>5000 years of history I said government. Government is a Western concept. There is no righteous Western government that espouses dharma. The kings of the past belonged to a different yuga; we live in unsavory times.

I meant abbo as in australian rather than dravidian, since dravidians had neanderthal admixture, at least through the aryan invasion if not beforehand.

And to be fair, Telugu uses a lot of Sanskrit vocabulary and the Andhras are mentioned as mighty warriors in Mahabharat.
