Hinduism

Original Text:

The main religion in India is Hinduism; a way of life as well as a theology and philosophy. Unlike Christianity and Judaism; Hinduism is a polytheistic religion; with deities numbering in the hundreds. Hinduism is unlike many other religions; it allows its creeds and practices to vary widely from place to place and person to person. Other religions have churches; Hinduism does not. Other religions have principal prophets and holy books; Hinduism does not. Other religions center on specially trained priests or other leaders; Hinduism promotes the individual as his or her own priest. In Hindu belief there are four types of people; reflective, emotional, active, and experimental. Each type of person has a different technique for realizing the true, immortal self; which has infinite existence, infinite knowledge, and infinite joy.
