Hinduism is the world’s oldest religion, over 8.500 years old. It is also the most tolerant, most resillient and peace-loving of all religions. Its roots lie in the vast Indian subcontinent, in the Indus Valley which had 300 advanced settlements as early as 5.000 BCE (Before Common Era). The people living around the River Sindhu (Indus) came to be known as the Hindus.  There is no one single Founder. Though penance and prayers, intuition and introspection, ancient seers gained the ultimate experience of God. These collective experiences founded the foundation of Vedic Civilization from which emerged the Hindu Dharma.

What makes the Hindus special is that they honour the whole of Creation, see the presence of God in everything. To them there are no heathens or enemies. Everyone has the right to evolve spiritually, and shall, at some time realize the Truth.  

Hinduism is liberal; it does not set man a limit of one life, but offers many lives. At the same time, Hinduism is strict; it makes man feel responsible for every action he performs, through the Law of Karma.

The major beliefs of Hinuism are : 

PARABRAHMAN

One Supreme all-powerful God. He is the Creator, has a divine form, is  immanent, transcendent and the Giver of Moksha.

AVTARVAD

Manifestation of God on Earth. God himself incarnates on earth in various forms to revive Dharma and grant liberation.

KARMAVAD

Law of action. The soul reaps fruits good or bad, according to its past and present actions, which are experienced either in this life or future life.

PUNARJANMA

Reincarnation. The immortal soul is continuously born and reborn in one of the species until it attains liberation.
