Indian Religion - Hinduism

I will continue the research on religions on this blog.

After researching on the Christianity, Islam and Buddhism,

 this time, I researched about the Indian Religion --- Hinduism.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Hinduism is one of the largest traditional religion of India.

It has a long history, it began at about 2500 B.C.

It has a lot of divisions, which have huge difference between them,

some of the main ones are:


Smārtism

Vaishnavism

Shaivism

Shaktism


Hinduism has some relationship with Buddhism,

However, different from other religions,

they don't have a single belief, or a complete mythology,

it's more like that they are combined by many different myths and religions.

The main mythology characters in Hinduism include:

Vishnu














Shiva















Devi



The Swaminarayan Akshardham Temple in Delhi
