About Hinduwebsite.com - Our Aims and Mission

I am proud to belong to a religion which has taught the world both tolerance and universal acceptance. We believe not only in universal toleration, but we accept all religions as true. - Swami Vivekananda

Hinduwebsite.com is dedicated to providing quality information on Hinduism and related religions that originated in India without belittling other religions. We aim to represent mainstream Hinduism for Hindus worldwide, not just a particular community, caste, or nation. We focus on the essential principles, beliefs, and practices of Hinduism, not a particular version or variety as found in the ancient scriptures.

Through our articles, books, and other presentations, we want to present the richness and diversity of Hinduism without aligning ourselves with any particular sectarian movement, guru tradition, or practice. We respect all beliefs, gods, saints, gurus, philosophies, and sectarian approaches to Hinduism. We believe that the paths to God are many, and individuals have to choose what suits them best.

We respect life in all forms and recognize people’s inalienable right to enjoy life and liberty and pursue their beliefs with dignity and responsibility. However, we do not support such beliefs and practices that undermine the value of life, the institution of family or endanger the order and regularity of society, and those ideologies that denigrate religion or usurp the role of God. As far as religions are concerned, we believe that governments should mind their business without meddling with their religious freedom or liberties.

We also believe that religion is a means, not an end in itself. We pursue religion to experience peace and happiness on earth. Our identity should not come from the religions we practice but from the humanity we represent. If religions create discord and disharmony amongst us, we believe it is because of our lack of discretion and inability to deal with our base nature.

Hinduwebsite.com is now over 23 years old and growing from strength to strength. We are the earliest and the first website on composite Indian culture representing all Indian religions. Since it was established, over 100 million unique visitors visited the website, and they keep coming. We aim to serve you to the extent we can. As a policy, we do not accept donations from anyone so that no one can raise a finger against us or dictate our policy. If you want to help us, please spread the word, like us on social media, or add a link in message forums whenever you quote our information in your posts. Links to them are available on this website.
