HINDUISM - HB

About the book:- The term Hinduism is one which we use for the sake of convenience to designate the religious creeds and practices. Hinduism is not one homogeneous growth of religious thought, it is neither a single tree nor a forest of trees sprung from the same stock. It is, on the contrary, an aggregation of minor growths, some of cognate origin, some of foreign provenance, all grouped under the shadow of one mighty tree. The Kernel of Hinduism consists of two groups of ideas. The first of these is the conception of a social order, or cash system, at the head of which stand the Brahmans as completest incarnation of the Godhead and authoritative exponents of its revealation Hinduism denotes all provinces of thought in which all or most of these ideas are at least nominally accepted.
