Hinduism
Hinduism is
the most fascinating religion amongst all. Why? Hinduism religion
is the oldest of all yet, it is never termed a religion. Why? Lord
Krishna... an Avatar of his era (God manifest in human form)...
Mahavira... Gautama Buddha... all belonged to India... the base
of Hinduism!
Gautama Buddha
came 423 years earlier to Jesus Christ... Mahavira 77 years before
Gautama Buddha! And preceded Mahavira... Lord Krishna by almost
1000 years! It is above 3600 years when Lord Krishna descended on
Mother Earth.
Hinduism is
a conglomerate of various faiths and practices that includes teachings
of Vedas, Upanishads, the Sacred Bhagavad Gita, Puranas and Itihasas!
There is no dearth of sacred literature in Hinduism yet; the Sacred
Bhagvad Gita is the foremost of all.
The doctrine
of Bhagavad Gita was given to mankind by Lord Krishna in the battle
of Mahabharata! Bhagavat Gita is one such scripture knowing which...
one becomes the knower of all... gains omniscience for all practical
purposes!
It is teachings
of Bhagavad Gita following which Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus
Christ and Prophet Mohammed gained enlightenment in their lifetime.
The precepts contained in Bhagavad Gita can never be understood
literally... one needs reading in between the lines!
For crossing
the ocean of Samsara (worldly life)... the pearls of wisdom contained
in Bhagavad Gita suffice. Both Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Maharishi
Ramana gained enlightenment in their lifetime following the teachings
of Bhagavad Gita!
The 700 shlokas
(verses) contained in Bhagavad Gita suffice the spiritual journey.
One need not refer to Vedas or Upanishads... Puranas or Itihasas!
In whatever stage of life one be... enlightenment can be reached
via the path of jnana yoga prescribed in Bhagavad Gita.
Bhagavad Gita
forms the core of Hinduism... the inner strength of Hinduism! Bhagvad
Gita is like the soul of Hinduism... as in absence of a soul the
body carries no meaning... in absence of Bhagavat Gita also... Hinduism
carries no meaning!
Ever since Lord
Krishna precipitated the wisdom of Bhagvad Gita... the meaning of
life became worthwhile! One can easily travel the spiritual path...
the uncharted territory of spirituality following the dictates of
Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism!
Hinduism is
one such a religion that has universal appeal. Any human being world
over can follow the precepts of Hinduism... moreover Bhagvad Gita
without ever converting to Hinduism religion... or leaving ones
religion! What can be nobler than following Bhagavad Gita!
