Hinduism General

>What is Hinduism?

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 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."

>political significance of Hinduism
All the decadence of the world today has been predicted by Hinduism.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kali_Yuga

Prophesied events during a Kali Yuga

>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.

Pajeets are gay as fuck man, stop denying it.

We tried to civilize your barbaric society, but you would not. Why don't your gods teach you how to shit in the toilet? Are they busy sleeping, or visiting with each other? Next time you hear a widow screaming as she is being dragged to her death, remind her how 'honorable' she is being to the gods who have abandoned you.

Enjoy the paki rape

I know zero gay people, but could be

Ah, your 'morality' permits you to rape too. This seems familiar.

You're most probably a leaf, but still an Anglo the scum of this earth little did the Romans know when they were raping down cringe tress

Can you link the other two?

Buddhism > Hinduism

Sorry you had to find out this way bud

Too bad there wouldnt be one without the other.

Stop this Hare Krishna bullshit you can't convert to a Hindu.
You have to born as one to be considered one.

>hare krishna
>convert
Do you see any links or any claims of conversion?
Buddhism is Hinduism for pleb

Look into based pastor anderson

Now this is just silly.
> Christianity > Judaism
>too bad there wouldn't be one without the other

Why would you willingly follow a faith system that doesn't even guarantee a post-death future?
To become one with the Atman takes the "soul" "multiple lifetimes". That's kind of redundant considering that the soul isn't even a thing, just an abstract concept. Any scrutiny causes it to collapse.
Buddhism makes much more pragmatic sense.

Whatever post death concept Buddhism has are borrowed from Hinduism just with different names and secondly its abrahamist that obsess over death
