Book Description
Preface

The roots of Hinduism reach deep into pre-historic hoary past. It has evolved over these millennia, and still this process continues. Dynamism, tolerance, cattholicity, assimilation, inclusiveness, optimism and unity in diversity have always been its hallmarks. Its multiplicity is more apparent than real. In the ultimate analysis, Hinduism proves to be a great synthesis of many diverse and even conflicting and contradictory trends and elements. Thus, its multiplicity and ambivalence are not only incompatible with the concept of essential unity of life and its creator, but also mark its strength. The Vedas and Vedanta form the earliest source of our knowledge of Hinduism. The Vedanta literature reflects mainly the early ritual-side of the Hindu way of living. So do the Puranas, as they throw significant light on the various mundane aspects of later Hinduism. The two Epics and the Gita also delineate the basis tenets of Hinduism, and underline the desirability of dharma and righteous living, leading to ultimate triumph of the forces of good over evil. The relization of Reality or Self, leading to final liberation, is one of the fundamentals of Hinduism. In this sense, yoga is efflorescence and fruition of Hinduism. Hinduism is not only a religion, but also a way of living and thinking. As such, its contribution towards world heritage and culture has been quite tremendous and unparalleled. Hinduism has exercised a great influence on world-minds in respect of abstract speculation, religion, arts and science. The well-known six systems of Hindu philosophy, are still a great force to be reckoned with. Thus, it has been a kindly light on the path of Pilgrim's Progress of humanity. One of the most characteristic qualities of Hinduism, is that it never believes in conversion, and there has never been a recognizable attempt at proselytization. There is no religious conquest on record. It has been a great living force in the life of millions of people on the subcontinent and in foreign lands.
