Religion

India is the home of Philosophy, Religion and Spirituality. Every age, she provides the world with her armies of spiritual masters. She uses every means to reach the people of various parts of the world to enlighten them to the grand avenues of a meaningful life. The world wide web is no exception. There are several sites which give very indepth information of the various concepts and various schools of Indian Religion.

In India, spirituality is basically tuning one's mind to consider one's self and others as different from the gross physical body and the subtle mental body, and to be beyond the limitations of space, time and causation. Philosophy is the theory aspect and religion is the practical aspect of this principle.

The beauty of the Indian philosophy is the grand unification of a Metaphysical God who is the Absolute Reality and the substratum of all existence, and a Personal God who is the basis of all morality, ethics and the inspiration to lead a meaningful life. This grand unification makes the Indian religious temper one of the most tolerant and all consuming of the religions, and also the mother of many religions of the world today.

The Indian religious temper, called Hinduism, is more ancient than the oldest known Rig Vedic hymn, which is dated to about 5000 BC, and yet is as modern as the school of thought sprung yesterday. This dynamic nature of the religion, based on a firm foundation makes it one of the most sagacious and vibrant of religions.
