Hinduism is the oldest organized religion in the world. It is the Sanatana Dharma, the Eternal Law. It has no known origin and no founders - it is a synthesis of various Indian cultures and practices from as early as 4000 BCE.
Hinduism differs from Christianity and other Abrahamic religions in that it does not have:
>A single founder, >A specific theological system, >A single concept of deity, >A single holy text, >A single system of morality, >A central religious authority, >The concept of a prophet.
Hinduism is neither polytheistic, monotheistic, trinitarian or henotheistic, yet it is all at the same time.
The development of Hinduism was influenced by many invasions over thousands of years. The major influences occurred when light-skinned, nomadic "Aryan" Indo-European tribes invaded Northern India (circa 1500 BCE) from the steppes of Russia and Central Asia. They brought with them their religion of Vedism. These beliefs mingled with the more advanced, indigenous Indian native beliefs, often called the "Indus valley culture."
>Rulers will become unreasonable: they will levy taxes unfairly. >Rulers will no longer see it as their duty to promote spirituality, or to protect their subjects: they will become a danger to the world. >People will start migrating, seeking countries where wheat and barley form the staple food source. >"At the end of Kali-yuga, when there exist no topics on the subject of God, even at the residences of so-called saints and respectable gentlemen of the three higher varnas [guna or temperament] and when nothing is known of the techniques of sacrifice, even by word, at that time the Lord will appear as the supreme chastiser."
With regard to human relationships
>Avarice and wrath will be common. Humans will openly display animosity towards each other. Ignorance of dharma will occur. >People will have thoughts of murder with no justification and will see nothing wrong in that. >Lust will be viewed as socially acceptable and sexual intercourse will be seen as the central requirement of life. >Sin will increase exponentially, while virtue will fade and cease to flourish. >People will take vows and break them soon after. >People will become addicted to intoxicating drinks and drugs. >Teachers will no longer be respected and their students will attempt to injure them. Their teachings will be insulted, and followers of Kama(lust) will wrest control of the mind from all human beings.
Hinduism is Buddhism mixed with the old religion of Brahmanism. its why Buddhism almost became extinct in India. you pajeets gave up a beautiful religion like Buddhism for a mongrel religion. such a shame. the swastika has been found in ancient greek artifacts which suggests Buddhism has been around for ages.

We believe our reality is a dream of a cosmic consicness, each of us are born with a duty or dharma the action you perform are karma, if your karma is closer to your dharm you can escape this illusion >science and space It's the only religion to predict the cyclic nature of the universe even going as far as calculating the time since the big bang without modern science
Brody Powell
>We believe our reality is a dream of a cosmic consicness Ah, some tantric schools actually think the world is real.

>it has no known founders Wrong. It was founded by Turks.

How does Hinduism differ from buddhism?
Thomas Ward
>Not using chandan, besan and utna Kys filth
David Bennett
So.. you guys actually are Aryans or not?
Jordan Rogers
>It was founded by Turks Hardly, Rig Veda has astronomical information from 12000 years ago.
Andrew Robinson
The word "Aryan" designates a person who has suceeded in the spiritual path.
Luis Anderson
>pretty much cucks that take what ever beliefs and reality to suit themselves.
Sounds like niggers to me

Jackson Davis
Well they believe in kala jadu too The base philosophy is similar, Hinduism address all aspects of life Ie a social structure even an economic program, Buddism is just deals with spirituality
Jacob Evans
The word aryan mean Nobel or somone who has been successful on the spiritual path
Zachary Taylor
There is an eternal divide among poo posters. Once I triggered a poo simply by claiming Aryan invasion happened
Thanks, seems legit
Xavier Kelly
>they believe in kala jadu Meaning? You'd be surprised at the ammount of hindus that lose their shit in mad horror at the sight of a yogi thinking he'll use black magic on them.
Aiden Scott
Yes it means black magic, how many times have you been to India
>how many times have you been to India India is a hellhole, I wouldn't go there even if I was paid, I'm familiar with the religion because it holds true spirituality behind the whole nonsense, but don't get cocky because these notions were known in the west and africa also in the past, look at egyptian yoga or google up "cernunnos" and see the celtic god in a yogic asana holding the kundalini snake in one hand to understand this.
Xavier Richardson
>Hinduism is the oldest organized religion in the world. >A specific theological system, Thats pretty contradictory
Brody Morgan
So what is /hindu/ doing today to follow their Dharma? I'm picking vegetables in the rain.
Yes, a prediction of precooked food is asinine and common sense

Thieves will become kings, and kings will be thieves. A person will be judged unholy if he does not have money. Duration of human life will diminish day by day. Men and women will live together merely because of superficial attraction, marital relations will be based upon outer appearances. Marriage will be arranged simply by verbal agreement and broken at will. There will be many displaced people, wandering from one country to another in search of food and employment. People will beg for their life and unemployment will increase day by day. People will be envious, no one will trust others. --->Pre-cooked food will be readily available.
Jayden Jones
Hypocrisy will become a virtue, it will be impossible to survive without being selfish, cruel and tormenting others in some form or the other. Cows will be killed, animals will be ruthlessly hunted down for pleasure and forests burned for wood. Avarice and wrath will be common. Humans will openly display animosity towards each other. Ignorance of dharma will occur. People will become addicted to intoxicating drinks and drugs. Sensual gratification will become the goal of life. Students will openly ridicule and quarrel with their teachers. Water will be lacking and will be traded for Silver. The state leaders will no longer protect the people but, through taxes and rules, will loot all wealth of citizens. Petty – minded people will conduct business transactions and merchants will be dishonest. Fetuses will be killed in the wombs of their mothers. People will freely commit abortion. The purpose of life will consist simply of filling one’s stomach, and audacity will become equivalent to conclusive truth. If a man can even maintain his own family members, he will be honored as very expert, and religiosity will be measured by a person’s reputation for material accomplishments The citizens will be so oppressed by merciless rogues in the guise of rulers that they will give up their spouses and property and flee to the hills and forests.

Are you fucking serious? GottaCatch'emAllism is true because of microwave pizza.

Again, basic shit about a crumbling society. Any half-assed scholar from 3k years ago could have told you this. Got any more comic relief "wisdom" to share?
Tyler Reyes
Beauty will be thought to depend on one’s hairstyle. Harassed by famine and excessive taxes, people will resort to eating leaves, roots, flesh, wild honey, fruits, flowers and seeds. Struck by drought, they will become completely ruined. Human beings will become shortsighted, unfortunate, gluttonous, lustful and poverty-stricken. The women, becoming unchaste, will freely wander from one man to the next. Men will develop hatred for each other even over a few coins. Giving up all friendly relations, they will be ready to lose their own lives and kill even their own relatives. Uncultured men will accept charity on behalf of the Lord and will earn their livelihood by making a show of austerity and wearing a mendicant’s dress. Those who know nothing about religion will mount a high seat and presume to speak on religious principles. Servants will abandon a master who has lost his wealth, masters will abandon an incapacitated servant, even if that servant has been in the family for generations. Men will no longer protect their elderly parents. Many sudras will become kings, and many heretics will be seen.There will arise various sects, sannyasins wearing clothes colored red. In the Kali Yuga, men, corrupted by unbelievers, will refrain from adoring Vishnu, the Lord of sacrifice, the creator and lord of all. They will say: Of what authority are the Vedas? What are gods, or Brahmins? What need is there for purification with water?

Weak and lave like the rest of your larp. At least Jesus isn't blue and the Bible is actually a beautifully written book with profound poetry and wisdom. Much less acid dreams in it too.
Justin Bennett
there is some dude that posts here who says we are not actually in the Kali Yuga but some other lesser shitty age... no idea if he's right
Jaxon Perez
>the Bible is actually a beautifully written book with profound poetry and wisdom
Yes m8, the bible is original work, do not steal.

>hinduism predicted flying cars and shieet Sure it did, fiendo. Too bad it didn't predict a functioning sewage system.

I wouldn't call an unfalsifiable belief "advanced". At least horses fucking exist. Indians are fucking subhuman NPCs, with dark skin like dirty niggers.
John Harris

Liam Edwards

Ethan Thomas
>Sure it did, fiendo. Too bad it didn't predict a functioning sewage system.
I'm not saying hinduism predicted flying cars.
I'm saying that, just like you claimed, these scholars of hinduism were wrong and we haven't a degenerate society, we have progress and flying cars.
Btw, these apostles of jeebus sure died long ago and jeebus never came, reeks of false religion.
Connor Hill
>actually matters Oh hey, an enlightened teacher, he knows true spiritual wisdom from bullshit from all these times he has been reincarnated as a god, let's listen to him :^)
Nicholas Turner
>Pokemonism was wrong since we have utopia because of flying cars >lol those stupid apostles the Messiah didn't come back lol Get your head out of your drug bucket. You're rambling nonsense now.
Hunter Kelly
>Rulers will become unreasonable: they will levy taxes unfairly. >Rulers will no longer see it as their duty to promote spirituality, or to protect their subjects: they will become a danger to the world. so all known history is kali yuga?
Evan Moore
Wow dude. Can you even get more retarded that you?
Hinduism is just like Christianity. With prayer songs like these you are cucked too youtu.be/rbvww26oMQ4
Brody Cooper
fuck hinduism go fuck yourself satan worshippers
Lincoln Davis
I don't know much about Hinduism so I apologize if this is an ignorant question. Assuming that there are different branches/forms of Hinduism which ones are considered the most conserved or oldest? Hinduism and European pagan spirituality are generally regarded to come from a common Indo-European root so I'd be interested in reading more about and exploring the oldest rituals/beliefs in Hinduism.
Thanks for making a cool thread BTW. Jow Forums has been total shit lately.
