Articles On Hinduism

 

The Atheists and Materialists of Ancient India
This essay explains the salient features of the Carvaka philosophy, a heterodox atheistic school of thought that originated in ancient India prior to the rise of Buddhism and played an important role in the development of Indian philosophy.

The Samkhya Philosophy and 24 Principles of Creation
Hinduism owes a great deal to the Samkhya school of thought. According to Richard Garbe, Samkhy philosophy is "the most significant system of philosophy that India has produced." It exerted profound influence on many scholars in ancient India, China and, according to some, even Greece.

Symbolism Of Puja In Hinduism
In Hinduism we come across a common method of worship called puja. "Puja" is the most popular form of worship practiced in almost every Hindu household even today, either on a daily basis or during some important religious function or ceremony. A puja can be either a simple ritual worship or a very complicated one, depending upon the way it is performed.

Hinduism And Evolution
Hinduism believes in the concept of evolution of life on earth. Although it is not the same as the one known to modern science, in many ways and in a very fundamental sense, it is not much different from the latter.

Symbolism of the Descent Of The River Ganga or Ganges To The Earth
The river Ganges is very sacred to the Hindus. Those who take a dip in the river are said to be ridden of all their sins and attain immortality. It is believed that the river used to flow in the heavens till the sage, Bhagirath, made severe penances and directed its flow towards the earth to save his 60000 ancestors who were lying in the nether world (patala) in a heap of ashes due to a curse delivered by sage Kapila.

Symbolic Significance of The Hindu Trinity, Brahma, Vishnu And Siva
In Hinduism God is viewed as one and the many. He is also described as both the known and the unknown and the One with qualities and the One without qualities. He is compared to the sky, the space, consciousness, ether and even emptiness. He is both the known and the unknown, the lower and the higher, the immanent and the transcendent.

The Practice of Tantra and Tantric Ritual in Hinduism and Buddhism
It is difficult to trace the history of tantra which is mostly obscure as in case of the history of religions. Many tantras offer mythical explanations for their origins, often setting themselves as the given word of either Siva or a goddess such as Devi. Scholarly depictions of their origins are often as varied, ascribing tantras to pre-Aryan, Indus Valley civilizations or similar aboriginal, tribal groups or as integral part of an Indian cultural fabric.

Hindu Marriages And The Duties Of Husband And Wife In A Traditional Hindu Family
According to Hinduism, marriage between two souls is a very sacred affair that stretches beyond one lifetime and may continue up to at least seven lives. The relationship between the two does not necessarily have to begin only when they have attained birth as human beings. The gender of the two partners also does not have to be the same in all the births.

Hinduism & Children
Hindus loves their children dearly. They believe that their children are gifts from gods and products of their previous karma. Many presume that their children were related to them in their past lives or were their close friends. According to Manu, a man recreates himself through his own children.
