Hinduism Ancient religion with no founder or known date of origin. Term "Hinduism" derives from the word "India" Most Hindus worship one or more deities, believe in reincarnation, value the practice of meditation, and observe festive holidays like Diwali and Holi

Polytheistic or Henotheistic? What is it called when you worship one god in many forms?

What are the three basic teachings of Hinduism? Karma- refers to all of the actions of a person’s life that affects his role in the next life Dharma – religious and moral duties of an individual –escape the wheel of faith Reincarnation- rebirth of the soul in another bodily form

Reincarnation As a person puts on new clothes and discards old and torn clothes, similarly an embodied soul enters new material bodies, leaving the old bodies.(B.G. 2:22)

What is Brahman? The whole universe is part of the unchanging, all-powerful spirit called Brahman. Too complex to understand Broken up the concept into a variety of gods which give a concrete form to Brahman

Name some of these Gods. On your comic.

Classical Hindu thought accepts the following objectives of human life, known as the puru ṣ ārthas: Dharma ("righteousness) Artha ("livelihood, wealth") Kāma ("sensual pleasure") Mok ṣ a ("liberation, freedom (from samsara)

Goals in Life Every person has an essential self called Atman –(soul) Ultimate goal - Achieve Moksha – union with Brahman Can you achieve Moksha in one lifetime?

Four Stages of Life Dharma Artha Kama Moksha - can you be allowed release from the cycle of Reincarnation - Samsara

Other beliefs Hindus advocate the practice of ahi ṃ sā (non-violence) and respect for all life because divinity is believed to permeate all beings, including plants and non-human animals In accordance with ahi ṃ sā, many Hindus embrace vegetarianism to respect higher forms of life
