Hinduism, the world's oldest known Dharma, it's is not like an organized religion

like Christianity or Islam. It has no founder no Pope no hierarchy and even no


Name. Hinduism is not a religion & it's actually called as Sanatan Dharma,
Sanatan means Ancient, you will understand what is Dharma later here in this
article. The word 'Religion' is not synonym for word Dharma, Religion is synonym
for word 'Mazhab' which is an urdu language word, So Quran & Bible can be said
Religious books or Mazhabi Kitab (books) but they cannot be said as Adhyatmik
or Dharmik Books/Granth, The word Hindu is not mentioned anywhere in any
Spiritual books of Sanatan Dharma, It was Persians who used to call Hindus to the
people living across the the river Sindhu (Indus River), initially they called them
Sindhu's & later it became Hindu's due to pronunciation issue with Persians, So
according to this either it's people of India, Pakistan, Afghanistan or Bangladesh
are all Hindu's irrespective of whatsoever religion they belong to, or they belongs
either it's Christianity or Islam doesnt matter. Other Sections like Jainism,
Sikhism & Budhism are all branches of one Sanatan Dharma. Now to understand
Hinduism it is first & foremost important to understand few terms used in
Hinduism like:- Dharma (Duty), Bagwan (Physical manifestation of God),
Jeevatma (Soul), Atma (Soul), Parmatma (Formless God), Devta (Male Deity), Devi
(Female Deity), Adhyatma (Spirituality) and Ahenkaar (Ego). All these terms are
all Sanskrit words which actually has no translating words in any of the other
languages in the world, so here i will still try to use best suited words which could
make you to grasp the actual meaning of these words as much as possible.
Adhyatma: is a branch which deals with the study of Atma & Parmatma, many
people use word Spirituality as a Synonym for Adhyatma which is not right
actually, but this is not completely wrong also, we have few words like Dharma,
Adhyatma, Ahenkaar, Manushya etc etc for which we sometimes have to use
some English words who have meanings quit or almost near to these Sanskrit
words to make people understand their meanings to some extent. Atma &
Parmatma: both are same things according to Vedanta but still at many places in
vedas or upanishads Atma is also called Soul, Parmatma is the supreme being i.e
God, to clearly understand the relation between atma & parmatma assume a
bucket filled with water in which you are able to view the shadow of night moon,
now that bucket is a body & shadow of moon visible inside is an Atma of that
body and the Real moon which is visible outside in the sky is like Paramatma i.e
God. Parmatma according to vedas is actually Param Tatva i.e Super Element or
Ultimate Element, here Tatva is again Sanskrit words which means an Element.
you will later understand what it is in this article. Jeevatma : you can assume it
like a small body (of size near 2-4cm) inside physical body or you can say it's a
bundle of 5 Senses, Intelligence, Sanskars, Karma's, Atma, 7 chakras (7 Shocker
Points - see youtube on this), Prarabdah (something like fortune or which makes
or decides future events for every being, it gets created by Karma i.e deeds
which person does) and 5 kosha's (you can assume kosha's like three sections or
layers inside earth like Core, Crust & Mental, similarly there are 5 kosha's in every
living being, 1st is Annamaya Kosh, 2nd Pranamaya Kosh, 3rd Manonaya Kosh ,
4th Vigyanmaya Kosh, 5th Aanandmaya Kosh). Ahankaar: It's the belief inside
every human mind that "I am a human being or a structural body or a mind or
intelligence" or in short "I am anything else but not Atma or Soul", due to
Ahankaar person believes all the Karma's i.e deeds which is done either by his
mind, intelligence or body is actually done by him. It is this Ahankaar which is the
barrier between every human being and his Salivation or Nirvana. Root or reason
of Ahankaar is agyan (Non-cognizance or Ignorance or Paucity of knowledge or
lack of knowledge), So the person who has Ahankar is also called Agyani i.e One
who is not learned, and person who has learned is called Gyani. Dharma: As we
know Hinduism has no name & followers of this Dharma calls it Sanatan Dharma,
word "Sanatan" means Ancient or oldest and the word "Dharma" means the
duties i.e for example duty of a person being a human being, being father,
mother, brother, soldier, doctor, minister or a duty being a citizen of a nation,
Social duties or duty which lord Krishna taught to Arjuna when he refused to fight
in Mahabharta.Which means any person who is fulfilling his duties in this world
belongs to Sanatan Dharma irrespective of his beliefs i.e either he believes in
hindu God or some other religion or God.There can be many duties of a person
for Eg:- duty of self-protection, humanity (manav dharma), duty being a son or
daughter or brother or sister, duty being a citizen, duty towards society, duty
towards person's own family etc etc. Here we must also understand that word
"duty" is not enough or fully capable to explain vast and indepth meaning of word
Dharma. Dharma is personal for every individual & that individual is free to
decide for himself & choose among his duties at any point of time. The only thing
which is mandatory is whatever dharma you chose you must chose on the basis
of Manav Dharma i.e Humanity & Ahinsa Parmodharma (Non Voilence, which is
considered as biggest Dharma in Hinduism which everyone must follow).
Remember religions are invented but dharma is not invented, Dharma is the
fundamental principle working behind this universe, even all atomic and
subatomic particles are preset to follow their dharma's (at the time of creation)
which makeup's their behavior, if any single particle in this entire universe even
deviates just 0.1% of it's Dharma just for a 1 millioneath of second it's behavior
will be replicated to all the other particles in entire universe and everything will
get fragmented or destroyed or finished within that second. Dharma is eternal it
begins with creation and ends with the creation. Dharma is a fundamental
principle that works behind every existence from bottom (extreme below
quantum level) to top (celestial or universal) levels of this entire creation. Now, as
i can hope that you many have understood the basic terms used in Sanatan
Dharma, I think i can now safely proceed towards explaining the core beliefs of
Sanatan Dharma. As Hinduism is not a religion it's Dharma, there is no process or
way available or mentioned anywhere in any Spiritual books to get converted to
Sanatan Dharma. All human beings on this earth naturally belongs to Sanatan
Dharma by birth & remains under the laws of Sanatan Dharm even after death till
they get Salivation or become Self-Realized, whether any person believes in
Hinduism, Paramatma, Bagwan's, Deities or not, whether any person go to the
Hindu temple or not, whether any person gets cremated after death or is buried,
whether person believes in some other religion doesn't matter in any way. It's not
possible to convert Dharma, like it's not possible to convert duties of mother to
duties of father, it can be possible that mother can also give love & affection to
her child on behalf of child's father, but doing that also, she is fulfilling the
Dharma of a Mother. Also in Sanatan Dharma there is neither any condition like if
you didn't accepted to become Hindu you will be burned in hellfire or will get
punished, In Sanatan Dharma, Paramatma i.e God does not put any kind of any
restrictions or put force on individual to believe Him or worship Him, a Hindu i.e a
follower of Sanatan Dharma can live his entire life without worshiping Paramatma
and can still go to heaven & also can become eligible for getting equal love,
respect & benefits in heaven or any other Galaxies wherever person will be taken
after death. But yes there is an eligibility for heaven (also called Swargloka in
Sanskrit), the eligibility is the person must have honestly given his best to fulfill
his/her duties(Dharma), How much person succeeded or failed in fulfilling his
duties does not matter, what matters is how much person remained honest &
served to society, nation, humanity, his family, friends, needy. It's only the deeds
& intensions behind those deeds what matters not individuals beliefs. Any person
in this world even a person like Osama-bin-laden if has done any single thing
good for humanity can go to heaven. there is another side of this i.e the person
who goes to heaven or hell does not stay there as permanent, the time depends
on the quantity of good deeds person has done on earth (also called Karma
Bhumi i.e land of deeds). Time function in those Galaxies can be understood with
this example that near 10 years on earth is equal to 1 day on heaven, for some
galaxies it's 100 earth years = 1 day, and person who goes to heaven stays there
for many years even for few good deeds done on earth, same is also true in case
of Hell. After finishing their time in those Galaxies those souls are again sent on
earth for rebirth, Same process continues again and again and again...endlessly
till the person gets Self Realized or Moksha, you will understand this later here in
this article. Relation between Religion and Dharma: Word "Dharma" is a Sanskrit
word which has no similar word in any other languages present in any language
in this world, So it's meaning must not be misunderstood as Religion. Religion is
man-made invention & can get created after any human being who claims to be a
messenger or prophet of God, Religion can give commands & put conditions for
religious conversion for going to heaven. For example Quran gives commands like
"Do Jihaad" and if you are a true follower you have to execute that command,
Quran commands drinkers and gamblers should be whipped, If married women
found sleeping with other men must be stoned to death etc etc , these are
commands that are compulsory for a follower to execute. on the contrary this
Dharma only suggests not force, and allows person to use youre his/her own
intelligence own thought process to decide in what circumstances how a person
should do his duties. it doesn't scare you any Hell fire. Dharma leaves on you to
decide what is best for you and the entire humanity and leaves you independent
to choose your Dharma at any particular time or circumstances. What is
Adhyatma i.e Sprituality? Adhyatma gives you the answer of all the fundamental
questions of universe. Adhyatma helps you to understand What & Who are you! ,
It helps you to know & understand that you are not mind or body or made up of
any blood, bones & muscles i.e in short you are not creation or even a part of
creation. It's Adhyatma which helps you to understand this world is nothing more
than a dream and you are the only viewer present here who is viewing this dream
and is also present everywhere in different forms, Parmatma according Vedas, In
Yajurveda it has mentioned in [Rigveda 1.164.46] "ekam sat vipraa bahudhaa
vadanti agnim yamam matariswanam" It's actually HE who manifested here in
different forms (present in this universe), i.e everything either it's human beings,
animals, birds, non living things anything either visible or invisible is a physical
manifestation of that one Param Tatva i.e Parmatma (God).Whatever materialistic
world you are experiencing is actually made up of virtual particles thus is virtual
& does not exists at all, To explain you scientifically, you know that there are so
many particles and antiparticles which together makeup this universe , none of
them are solid (Generally we use this term when we consider elements) , initially
physicists used to believe that all particles or atoms are solid but later this was
revealed that neither atoms nor any sub-atomic particles are solid i.e they appear
to be solid but were not, So that mean EVERYTHING which we thought was real
suddenly became VIRTUAL because everything was made of those virtual
particles, that means all matter, compound, elements all are virtual and thus
actually in reality does not exist at all, That also means our human bodies which
are also made up of those virtual particles are also virtual and thus does not exist
in reality. Vedas & Upanishads in Hinduism mentions this virtual reality as MAYA
(MA => Something which appears as solid, dense & real, YA=> but is not) , this
secret revelation by Vedas were which was initially rejected & not believed in
18th century by western physicists was later accepted with great shock & since
then they started carrying deep analysis & researches on these Vedic literature's
in Sanatan Dharma. How many Gods are in Sanatan Dharma? There is only one
Parmatma (God) who is formless and has no structure present which can appear
like Him due to His Infityness which makes Him Shapeless (without any edges
and dimensions), and it's the Parmatma who has appeared in all the forms here in
this universe, Everything we see or experience in this materialistic world is
nothing but the physical manifestations of that one Param Tatva (Super Element
i.e God), When Vedas say Parmatma you must understand who is Parmatma
according to Vedas, According to Chandogya Upanishad it's Parmatma from
whom all the vibrating sub-atomic (Anu-Parmanu) particles are getting self
created, It's He who is present in the base or root of all virtual particles present
either at quantum level or even below quantum level in universe, Vedas call it
TATVA (the Element) or Param-Tatva (the Super Element) or Parmatma (God), So
It's actually this Tatva (Element) which is present here in all the forms we see or
feel in this universe. Except this Tatva everything which we feel or experience in
this materialistic universe whether it's humans, animals, birds, woods, water, air,
light, gravity, space or this entire universe is Virtual thus does not exist in reality,
this is the concept of Maya in Vedanta (Upanishads),Word Maya means
"Something which appears to be solid & real But Is Not!!". Vedas also call this
Element as OM because according to Vedas OM is the sound vibrations of this
Tatva (i.e Paramatma) & OM is the sound of this universe i.e creation, This entire
universe is the result of sound vibrations of OMM.. , You can deeply understand it
by studying the science of Cymatics.Vedas also call Him, Braman which is like a
characteristic name of this Element because it's collectively infinitely big, due to
this property He is Omnipresent also. So now you know Hindus in real actually
believe in one God and this one God is completely different and scientific if as
compared to any God mentioned in any other holy books like Quran or Bible etc.
Now you must be thinking then why Hindus have so many Deities like Deity of
fire, water, air etc etc or Why Hindu's worship Bagwan's like lord Shiva & Vishnu if
they have only one formless God? To understand this you must understand few
terms here, The Bagwan is Self-Realized physical form or Self-Realized physical
manifestation of Parmatma, The only difference is the word Parmatma is used for
formless infinite & omnipresent God and word Bagwan is used for it's Self-
Realized physical manifestation who is not infinite not omnipresent and has a
form. So Does that also means every human being is also God? Answer is Yes It's
True and Hindu's know this fact, You may be thinking then why don't Hindu's start
worshiping every human being because everyone is God??The only difference
between any human being and Bagwan is that Human being are not Self-Realized
i.e they don't know that they are God the Creator, they have Ahenkaar which
makes them to think they are humans who has a physical body with several
limitations & who tooks birth and dies. On the other hand Bagwan is Self-Realized
entity due to which He has direct access to all His powers, which make Him
omnipotent & Omniscient and has complete control over Creation, Preservation &
Destruction of this universe. Other deities have also got some spiritual powers
given to them by lord Bramha at the time of their birth or many of them have
attained powers by penance. There are near 33 crore Deities created by lord
Bhrama who lives in different Galaxies like Devloka, Gandharvaloka, Gauloka,
Swargloka etc etc, the Galaxy in which we live is called Prithviloka. So we can
assume these deities as Aliens with some super natural powers. Job of these
deities is to manage all the elements (Not Super Element, talking here about
elements made of of atoms i.e virtual elements) present in this universe. All
deities reports to the deity Indra, who is like manager of all the deities, Indra
himself reports to lord Bramha. All their jobs are conducted at microscopic levels
in this universe, thus it's hard to observe for a normal person with no scientific
knowledge. So we can say Creation & Parmatma both are one and thus in reality
noting is actually created nothing is being preserved and nothing gets destroyed,
whatever we experience as creation here is nothing but Parmatma itself. So in
short Universe and all of us are reflecting the illusion of reality, and so nothing
exists in reality except Parmatma here. You can also understand this by assuming
this universe as a dream which is created by your Sub-Conscious mind & in which
you present in many forms and whatever you experience in your dream appears
to you as real, but when you get awakened or you become enlightened i.e you
Realize your real identity then you understand that there was nothing but only
you present everywhere in all different forms. It was you who was behaving like a
thief, it was you who was behaving like a police man, it was you who was coming
Sin and it was you who was who was giving punishments. After reaching to
ultimate state of mind or consciousness you fell your mind free from any kind of
anger, lust, greed, attachments and Ahenkaar. You mind reaches to the level of
ultimate peace, after reaching this state there is nothing left for person to
achieve or to know, He himself becomes the knower of everything and gains all
His powers. In short that Self-Realized person become God or Paramatma or
Bagwan or Everything. To Learn more on what is difference between Paramatma
and Bagwan/God, see this Link
https://www.facebook.com/ReturningToHinduism/posts/532569100215105:0 Now
you may be thinking how can one become Self-Realized or attain Moksha
(Nirvana)? Well Swami Vishnu-devananda said "The truth is one but the paths are
many". To better understand the concept you can picture a mountain with a
summit. The peak of the mountain represents the spiritual goal, moksha. Now
imagine there are four people standing on each side of the mountain. To reach
the summit, the same destination, each person has to walk a different direction.
Likewise, each of us symbolically stands at a different space, spiritually speaking,
according to our temperament and personality, so each of us needs to take a
customized path to the top. From the explanation above, it is easily understood
that, truly, there are as many paths as there are people. Practically though, there
are a few hundreds of yogas, or practices which are categorized into the four
main paths. These paths are: 1) Gyana Yoga The path of wisdom and knowledge.
The Gyani uses his will and power of discrimination to cut through the veil of
ignorance and attain the truth. For the Gyani, the goal is absolute Truth. Gyana
Yoga appeals to the philosophical and intellectual temperament. 2) Bhakti Yoga
The path of love and devotion. The bhakta uses the combined energies of all
emotions and transmutes them, sublimates them into the highest of all emotions.
Prem (love) is pure, conditionless & divine . For the bhakta (devotee), the goal is
pure love.It includes the external and symbolic worship of the Bagwan using His
murti (Satue), other practices such as pilgrimage and the sophisticated processes
of inner development. Bhakti Yoga appeals to the emotional temperament. 3)
Raja Yoga The path of self control and self mastery. The raja yogi controls his
mind until it becomes perfectly still at which time there is no more wall between
himself and his own divine nature. The main practice in Raja Yoga is meditation.
For the raja yogi, the goal is perfect mind control. Raja Yoga appeals to the
mystical and scientific temperament. Among the additional hundred yoga's out
there, two more stand out as particularly important: a) Kundalini Yoga Derived
from the tantric tradition this yoga aims at purifying the physical and psychic
systems, and then awakening the cosmic power residing in the muladhara chakra
(1st Shocker point) at the base of the spine. Upon awakening and raising of this
spiritual power it unites with the consciousness center in the crown of the head
and thereby grants liberation to the spiritual aspirant and practitioner of
Kundalini Yoga . b) Hatha Yoga Sometimes called the physical aspect of yoga it
works mostly on the psychic level. Besides its innumerable medical benefits,
hatha yoga is essential support to both raja yoga and kundalini yoga. 4) Karma
Yoga The path of selfless service. For the karma yogi, the main problem is our
inherent selfishness which is based on spiritual ignorance, lack of knowledge. The
key is to practice selfless actions without any selfish expectations, and thereby
opening one's heart and seeing God in all beings. For the karma yogi, the goal is
complete selflessness. Karma Yoga appeals to the active temperament. Is There
any Castesm In Sanatan Dharma (Hinduism): Many people have misconception
about Sanatan Dharma that it has provision for Castism which is not right. there
is no castism in Sanatan Dharma, There is provision for Varna's (class) in which
people were classified into four classes with relation to their aptitude and
vocation. Four orders of society were recognized based upon the four duties of
human beings and established society accordingly.It's completely upto person
what varna he/she wants to choose and live life according to that, Varna has two
meanings, first it means "Color" and second it means a "Veil", As color it does not
refer to the color of the skin of people, but to the qualities or energies of human
nature. As a veil or class it shows the four different ways in which the Divine Self
is hidden in human beings. Varna is not made to discriminate but to assimilate in
a way to support the organized behavior of society or country by assigning
social/cultural/individual duties i.e Dharma accordingly. In ancient India, these
divisions were not based on birth but based on Qualifications & Skills or you can
say Varna of any person depends on what skills & qualities person has & the way
he contributes to society for his own living.There are four Varna's in Sanatan
Dharma :- Bhramin, Khatriya, Vaishye and Kshudra.If any person who is doing
business i.e has got business skills, that person belongs to the Vashye Varna. Any
person who is a warier or serving in defense or security of the nation or is soldier
in army or anywhere working or contributing in defense he is Kshatriye, A person
who is knowledgeable and spread education in society through teachings or a
person who can also be supreme advisor of the king who assists king to take right
decisions, who is brain behind societies welfare and growth belongs to the
Bhramin Varna. Bramins are also seen as the deity of the earth. A persons who
may be laborer's or service providers, mostly workers in any factory or company,
or in short person who most of the time executes or follows the orders of
Kshatriya or Vaishya or Brahmin's belongs to the Kshudra Varna. In Hinduism
varna is not assigned on the basis of Birth, Dynasty or Last Name, Any person
can change his Varna by changing his work and skills like doctor can also become
an actor or an merchant.. all 4 varnas are equal as human being and have same
human rights but they will have different set of powers and responsibility on then
thus their will we difference of respect between these 4 designations. In Ancient
India there were Rishis (Sages or Researchers) like Rishi Vedvyasa who wrote
Baghwat Gita, his mother was a Fisher Women & belonged to Kshudra Varna but
her son Vedvyasa was a Bramin, Similarly there was another rishi Valmiki who
wrote the Ramayana belongs to a dalit family (Kshudra) but valmiki was bramin
because of his Guna and Karma (i.e Skills & Qualites or Responsibilities), Similarly
there was rishi Vishwamitra guru of lord Rama, Vishwamirta belongs to Kshatriya
family but he was bramin himself, So by this you can understand that KARMA's
and GUNA(Skills) of any individual decided his/her Varna, varna is not made to
discriminate but to assimilate in a way to support the organized behavior of
society or country by assigning social/cultural/individual duties i.e Dharma
accordingly. Now Answering some questions which people have asked me from
past few days, like is it possible to have a person like Ghatothkach (he was a
Gaint person of more than 50,100 or 150 ft long) or have weapons like
bhramastra or man flying without aircraft....??? The answer is Yes 100% Yes, have
you ever been to Girnar in India, if you visit the mounts and jungles there you will
find many sages at penance there, if possible go and try to interact with them
and request them to give a live demonstration of lift-off of human body in air. i
tried this and saw the live demonstration with my naked eyes, but they will not
let you make any video's at all, even that sage lifted my body to 5 feets up in air,
later when i asked him to tell how could he was able to do such thing, he
explained some science behind the Sound Vibrations, he said every letter when
pronounced correctly produces correct vibrations those vibrations produces
correct resonance & electromagnetic energy & field, also every vibrations effects
on human body parts, organs, cells, tissues, blood or even bones and skin, apart
from this these vibration if accurately produced effects the 7 Shocker Points (i.e 7
Chakras) inside every human body, In Past our Rishis (i.e Scientific Researchers)
who went deep into meditation have heard some sound vibrations they called
them as Beej Mantras, Those Rishis also detected that every metal has it own
unique electromagnetic radiation around it created by some sub-atomic
vibrations continuously going on in it, thus by understanding those vibrations
they first tried to listen the sound of the vibrations by entering into deep state of
mind where they have higher level consciousness, after figuring out those sounds
Rishis wrote them as mantras, those mantras were later used to control the
behavior of their corresponding metals, but before that there was the process of
Mantra Sidhi which was necessary to go through so that when Mantra chanter
starts chanting that Mantra he/she will be able to produce enough power with
sound signals so that the produces vibrations highly effect the subject (i.e Metal).
this technology was also used to create Vimanas (Read Vaimanika Upanishad - it
has everything which is needed to create a aircraft, it also mentions the kind of
training that piolet that he must undergo before flying aircraft, apart from this
when source of electricity, thrust production etc etc). Peter Davien in Newzeland
demonstrated the boiling of water in 1940 with the help of sound vibrations
(same can also done with the help of the Mantra which can be composed with the
vibration of that sound), you just need to understand sound and it's resonance,
you just need to put logic to how you can use the Free Energy On 17 June 2009,
Science clarified that it was sound which was used in the laser beam not light.
Science also discovered later that actually speed of sound can be more than the
speed of light which contradicts the earlier researches of science. Secondly, how
can a person fly & how Ghatothkach was able to resize his body also how is it
possible to have Gaints like Kumbhkarna and Rakshas etc..??See, There are 7
Shocker Points (7 Chakras) in human body and also in mother earth, if 3rd Chakra
i.e Manipur chakra if somehow activated yogi gains some sidhis like Anima,
Laghima, Garima etc.., Anima & Laghima can be used by yogi to Resize his body
to any major or minor extent, Ghatothkach who was the son of Bheem and
Hidimba had this sidhi by birth with him (Recently i also saw some video's about
Gaint Human Skeletons Found in India & other places in Asia and Europe, you
must go through those videos), This Manipur chakra gives the power of Gamana-
Gaman, that means yogi can lift his body in air & fly, This chakra when activated
removes 2 Elements from the body (Prithvi (earth) & Jal (Water) Tatva) thus the
remaining Tatva's are Akash (Space),Vayu (Air) & Agni (fire) thus gravity does not
affect the yogi's body which also makes him to feel much much lighter in weight.
-- You must try and devote some time in learning Shocker Points in human body.
Also there are many scientific videos on youtube demonstration how sound
vibration effect the surroundings known as study of Cymatics (bringing matter to
life with sound), Finally Weapon System:- Our Rishis Invented & also Discovered
weapons, they used to give those weapons to their Kings so that they could
protect humanity and their civilians in case of war, There were 4 kinds of energies
which Rishis used to invent weapons for example:- Anu-Parmanu Shakti(Atomic
Energy), Manasik Shakti (Energy of Mind & Consciousness) , Mantra shakti(Energy
of Sound Vibrations) and finally Adhyatmik Shakti (Spritual Energy), Weapons like
Bram Astra, Pashupat Astra, Narayan Astra work with the Adhyatmik Shakti.
Astra's like Naag Astra, Megh Astra works with the Mantra Shakti.
