THUS DEFINED IS HINDUISM !!
I HAVE BEEN OFTEN REQUESTED BY FRIENDS / ACQUAINTANCES TO DEFINE HINDUISM HOWEVER, I NEVER TOOK IT SERIOUSLY SO FAR. RECENTLY, A MATTER CAME UP IN SUPREME COURT WHEREIN LEARNED JUDGES ADMITTED HINDUISM AS A COMPLEX ISSUE, A LIFE-STYLE AND WHAT NOT. THESE OBSERVATIONS ARE TANGENTIAL AT BEST. LET ME ATTEMPT TO DEFINE HINDUISM AND COME TO THE ASSISTANCE OF ALL THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN SEIZED WITH THE MATTER SO FAR -
HINDUISM IS AS MYSTICAL AS THE ABSOLUTE CONSCIOUSNESS i.e. PARAM BRAHMA HIMSELF.
JUST AS EVERY 'BHAKTA' HAS HIS OWN TAKE ON THE ABSOLUTE DIVINITY, SO ARE THE MULTITUDINOUS DEFINITIONS OF HINDUISM, INDIVIDUALISED, CUSTOMISED AND PERSONALISED.
JUST AS IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DEFINE PARAM BRAHMA IN A STRAIGHT-JACKETED MANNER, SO IS TRUE WITH HINDUISM TOO.
WATER IS THE BASIC CONSTITUENT OF EVERY DRINK AS THERE CAN BE NO DRINK WORTHWHILE WITHOUT WATER BEING THE BASE. HINDUISM IS THE 'WATER' OF EVERY OTHER FAITH / RELIGION. EVERY MUSLIM, JEW, HISPANIC, BUDDHIST OR CHRISTIAN IS A HINDU. EVEN THE PASTOR WHO WANTED TO BURN KORAN IS A HINDU !! SO WAS NADIR SHAH !! SO WAS ROBERT CLIVE !!! DIFFERENCE LIES ONLY IN THE RANGE AND CONTENT OF THE ELEMENTAL CONSTITUENT IN THEIR FAITHS...HINDU CONTENT OF THEIR FAITHS / RELIGIONS, IN PROPORTION TO OTHER MAN-MADE ADDITIVES & CONTAMINANTS.
HINDUISM IS AS ALL-INCLUSIVE AS THE ABSOLUTE DIVINITY, BEING BHAGIRATHI OF ALL RIVULETS / GLACIERS OF ALL FAITHS / RELIGIONS.
LET US GO BEYOND. HINDUISM IS LIKE 'AKASA' THAT PERVADES THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE. WELL, HINDUISM PERVADES THE ENTIRE EXISTENCE.
ONLY THOSE PRIVILEGED ONES ARE APTLY QUALIFIED TO OFFER PRECISE DEFINITION OF HINDUISM WHO HAVE ATTAINED THE PEAK OF CONSCIOUSNESS - WHEN COGNISER, COGNISED AND THE COGNISABLE MERGE INTO ONE ENTITY.
THEY DO LEAVE BEHIND A MOOT QUESTION BEFORE US ALL - WILL YOU EVER COME BACK TO RENDER DEFINITION OF HINDUISM WITH ABSOLUTELY PRECISE EXACTITUDE ??
WILL ANYONE OFFER AN IMPROVISED DEFINITION OF HINDUISM ??
I HOPE THE CONUNDRUM FACED BY THE SUPREME COURT WOULD BE RESOLVED BY NOW.

Dear Mr Rao thank you for
Dear Mr Rao
thank you for replay,
YES I agree with you, but a little differance in the above
Massive conversion in past and present differnt sects of india, earlier it is pressurised,and now it is money related,The Time of Tppu and Hyder,
They invaded neighboring states and killed the all hindu mans mercilessly, and brutualy rapes the womens, but after Tippu and hyder go back thier territtoy , Our hindu brothers are isolated these widows,and womens and through them out of the homes,and imposed the Brusht, (out the community), 50 %is the hand of Muslim Facist and theif sultan Tippu, 50% is resopnsability of our own communities,
My intension, We never identifies the root cause how this conversion is happening, now it is only for money and daily needs, Why we try to start protect our own hindu brothers are suffering in sword of poverty and ignorance, then we armed against others,
Strengthen our community as iron hearted, try to remmoved all the filthes and superstion , and help the weaker sect first,
We cry a lot., and argue a lot, and act a very little,
clean the water first, then we can drink it, but our most of them trying to dirty it again,
I am not a fascist hindu, my mind is blowing and heart is brusting every time wereever my brothers are suffering,.The hindus are living in bangladesh and pakistan and other muslim countries, such a miserable life is living them in that country,it is mind blowing in every hindus, their living conditions are very pathetic, The stories are reach the ear of any hindus in India ,his blood is warming,and anguish against them, but it not the meaning of our action aganist our neighbering inncents,it is the cowards replay. we want to act against the culprits, every communal riots innacents are suffering, Fasicts and culprits are escaped,politicians are winner, we are the looser, I visit several communal riots areas , i under stand the behind every riots is money and political benifits only,every riots action includes killing the innacents, loot and act against women are same,Criminals and Goondhas are take the controll, personal venguances,political rivelaries also finalised to it, innacents, not rich,the poor hindus and muslims are the victms, they are the sufferer, every riots and outbrust is creating lot of refugees and unrest, gainer is politician, crual minded modern Giant politician only only.. we need the country level strenghtness against these problems, not like meaningless arguements, Patriotism is strngthen our country,I love and proud my religion,and my strengthe is my religion, any my breathe is also my religion

Dear Mr Vinay Krishna, I
Dear Mr Vinay Krishna,
I appreciate your thought. Hindus have spiritual srength much more than any one on this earth than any one. Although many superior warriors and sects invaded India and defeated Indians, at last all these men have disappered along with their sects.Musims have invaded the Arabian counries,Afghanistan, Iran and India and all the countries were converted except India. Inspite of 700 years of rule they failed to convert us into an Islamic state. Therefore, there is something different that kept our faith alive that muslims failed to understand.Here your argument beomes supportive that Hindism has survived owing to spiritaul strength and it is expected that this would continue. Till the Englishmen occupied India there were free wars and fights in India between rulers. Efforts of Tippu sultan and Hyder Ali to convert Hindus were countered. But in todays modern world is it possible to fight sectarian wars as done earlier. Some rule of law is there in most of the countries and jungle law does not exist.Yet Muslims and Christians are trying to convert Hindus by various means and present leadership after 1947 literally has turned a blind eye towards it inspite of slight hue and cry by Hindu oriented parties, This has resulted in sectarian crimes and violent agitations in Orissa and Gujrat too. All efforts are being made through pseudo secularism by rulers to counter Hindu voice and in this situation can any one imagine, hope , expect do wishful thinking and lie cooly that only spiritual strength will save us ultimately and accept ll nonsense agisnt Hindusthat goes on today..This has been the major point of discussion over this site in diferent articles posted by the bloggers. Then what are the ways left out? Islam always can launch Jihad on any one as it is sanctioned in Qoran. But Hindu scriptures do not have that provision. But lord Krishna has also preached in Gita that Adharma must be fought and if a war is waged to eliminate wicked men he is doing the Karma and no sin is attached. It is the way one interprets the scripture.on the aspect of Jihad many learned Islamic scholars argue that the provison of Jihad and killing the non believers is against those who betrayed the Prophet in his hey days after coming into an agreement with him. It is the thought process of each and every one in these matters. But practical aspects also should be seen.I appreciate your conviction.

Dear Mr Rao, I know very
Dear Mr Rao,
I know very well ,Muslims are the religion,never accept any other religion to sustain in the world, they never care about other religions belief and taught,It is the religion is 99% based on the material, means how to drink,walk,dress and live ,1% is contribute to spritual, Every material based religion have ther on problems,it never shows the taularaunces.Eventually, we see the result, what happened in the world, All the world are dicriminated muslims, identification marks on them as terraist, Gihadis, The sense of a Broad and broad minded muslims is equal to an ordinary hindu/cristain man, it is the reason of venguances and unrest in everywhere are muslims in majority, Saudiarebia,PakistAN, iran etc etc etc
But my taught Hindu never react like muslims, if we start to reACT SO, that is the end of our civilistion,we are here, we never invaded any country, accept every body,welcomed and invove it, that is our culture, World gives us the examples, like Greeks, Romans,Persians, they have more power and warriors, but now were are they, disappeared,
Religions are sustains in the earthe only its spritual strengthe, that is strength of us we are here,nothing is worry, hindu is the meaning of taularance
Before the sun. the moon, the earth
Before the stars or comets free
Before e”en Times has had it birth

Every human is a dummy GOD
Every human is a dummy GOD without any power. The purpose of God’s creation is that every human being should realize HIM with the given six sense detaching the mind from all the materialistic aspects present in the universe for liberation as an immortal soul. There is one Tamil proverb “Andaithil ulathu Pindathilum undu” means that whatever present in the universe is present in your physical body also as a nano particle including GOD himself (i.e. Aanma). The seed is planted in your physical body and it is your duty to do sowing, soiling, watering etc., to grow like a big tree.
So the first step to realize GOD within yourself you have to personify yourself as GOD, second step to detach the mind from all the materialist aspects, third Hinduism suggest several ways of tapas for final liberation.
I believe in GOD – GOD is within me – I am the GOD. GOD is present in all the living things. Searching GOD (self) is the way of Hindu spiritualism. Only one GOD exists everywhere in different form that is polytheism. All monotheists’ beliefs are false and against harmonized human existence. There is room for polytheist, atheist and no room for dangerous monotheist (ASS/U/ME). Belief is OK as long as it will not disturb others privacy. If GOD is scientifically or spiritually provable there is no need of GOD. Rishis only realized GOD but not seen like wind can only be sensed and can not be seen. Sensing itself gives tremendous powers. Faith in GOD/ALL, without faith no freedom, without freedom no humanity – “FAITH FREEDOM CLAM”

Dear Vinay Krishna We
Dear Vinay Krishna
We believe that all religions are nothing but different paths to attain almighty. They are like different paths to the peak of a mountain. However Islam does not believe so. It believes only in Allah and supremacy of Islam.They are notvready to accept any other god equal to Allah while Hindus areready to accept others beliefs.Hindus have accepted Buddha asincarnation of Lord Vishnu although there some differences in some quarters. We may even accept Jesus as great prophet and probably someday he may beacceptedas another incarnation of Lord. This has been the major confrontation between Islam and other religions and situation is still the same. On slightest pretext Hindu temple are attacked and descecrated. Mulsim rulers ensured that Hindu temples are destroyed and whenever they won wars first targetswere Hindu shrines. Two days ago in Bangla desh a Hindu temple was destroyed. This hasbeen the gretaest sore point in India and for Hindus.Even Emperor Akbar who is being much glorified by our pseudo historians is not above blame as hewasresponsible for maaassaccre of Rajputs anddestruction of temples at Chittorgarh after his victory over it.If every one believes inn others religion and tolerates where is the problem? This world would be a safestand happiest place to live.But in practice it is not so. Religious intolerance is the main root cause for todats troubles in world. This probably will never go and will go with Kayamat/ End of Kaliyuga/ day of judgement. Man will lead his own destruction and this is the truth even if one does not like itand hidesbehind some illusion.

eevam sad vipro bahudhoo vadantii,
all are one, only one is the truthe, and peoples identifies,mesmerised and named it as many, all the rivers flow in different directions and it merged in the oceans, water is same, but we classified it many,
our prayer starts like
loke samsto sughinoo bahvanthuhu,
it is never dicrinated to any, it involves all the sustains,

Dear Tiwariji,
You are correct and wrote well nodoubt.It is almost impossible to define precisely.No one has done so far including Swami Chinmayananda who wrote many book in recent times.
It is the way of life. No one has estbsihed Hinduism like Islam and christianity or atlesat Buddhism or Jainism. There is no single prophet for Hinduism.It has evolved over many centuries.It has absorbed each and every one ( However Islam has been resisting bitterly) . Ultimately Hinusin wil have last laugh on this planet.
