Basics of Hinduism
|
Hinduism, traditionally known as Sanatana Dharma, or “eternal law,” is an ancient tradition originating in ancient India. The term Sanatana Dharma refers to the idea that certain spiritual principles are timeless,
transcending man-made constructs and representing a natural order of
being. This pure consciousness is not merely that of the body or mind
or intellect, but of a transcendental state that exists both within and
beyond our material existence - the immaculate 'Soul' of all. Religion
to the Hindu is the eternal search for the divine Brahman – the infinite and immanent transcendent reality in the Universe, the Cosmic Spirit. |

Quote of the Day
A man ought to live in this world like a lotus leaf, which grows in water but is never moistened by water; so a man ought to live in the world - his heart to God and his hands to work.
