| | Hindu Philosophy [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] |
 | | Hinduism is one of the world’s oldest religious traditions, and it is founded upon what is often regarded as the oldest surviving text of humanity: the Vedas. | | | A famous formulation of the doctrine of Neo Hinduism is the simile that likens religions to rivers, and the oceans to God: as all rivers lead to the ocean so do all religions lead to God. | | | Indeed, many Hindus belong to sectarian traditions (such as Vaisnavism, or Śaivism) that specify that only one deity (Visnu, in the first case, or Śiva, in the second), or a very small set of deities, are genuine Gods, and subordinate the rest of the pantheon associated with Hinduism to the status of exalted beings. |

| | EASTERN PHILOSOPHY: |
| | Nevertheless, an important aspect of Hindu philosophy is that the universe, or the One, is a unity. | | | Hindus have a long tradition of belief in reincarnation, which, most simply, is the view that one’s present life is followed by a series of new lives in new physical bodies. | | | According to later Hindu tradition, this phrase “You are that” (tat tvam asi), as spoken by the father in the dialog, encapsulates the message of all the Upanishads. |

| | Hindu Philosophy |
| | And that is also the reason for Hinduism as being referred to as a way of life rather than a religion. | | | In this way a wonderful friendship of mythology and philosophy was effected; and this has been sustained with such result that the whole edifice of Indian civilization is imbued with spiritual meaning. | | | Perhaps that is the reason for diversity in Hinduism. |

| | GOD AND HINDU PHILOSOPHY |
| | The concept of a divine god is not fundamental to the Hindu philosophy. | | | That is why I hold that the Hindu philosophy was based on scientific perceptions, on rational and logical thought and there was no room in it for supernatural and divine concept of god. | | | Since Hinduism is not an organized religion, not one founded by a code book, we can only go by what are the traditional practices and beliefs of the people. |

| | ORIENTALIA - Hindu Philosophy of Marriage |
| | According to Hindus, therefore, the basis for marriage is friendship and such friendship is the understanding, the promise and the commitment that unites a man and a woman. | | | That is why a Hindu wife is not simply called a patni (wife) but she is always referred to as Dharmapatni, wife-in-Dharma. | | | The basis of Hinduism is rooted in the Vedas composed around 1500 B.C. or earlier. |

| | Ethics of Hindu Philosophy by Sanderson Beck |
| | It synthesized many ideas from the Samkhya philosophy and practice of yoga, but it is also claimed by Vedanta and Hindu philosophy in general as its greatest work on spirituality. | | | In India there are six orthodox schools of philosophy which recognize the authority of the Vedas as divine revelation, and they generally function as pairs - Nyaya and Vaishesika, Mimamsa and Vedanta, and Samkhya and Yoga. | | | By the time this was written, Krishna was considered an incarnation of the god Vishnu, the preserver, and he teaches Arjuna several kinds of yoga for achieving union with God. |

| | Hindu Philosphy |
| | The roots of Hindu Philosophy are the ideas of the Vedas.The Vedas are called Shruti or `that which is heard' and are regarded as revelations to sages passed down orally to disciples and students. | | | The word Hindu originally meant people living on the banks of the river Sindhu. | | | Vaisheshika philosophy has a scientific rather than a metaphysical approach and believes that the world is made up of innumerable but distinct (vishesha) particles. |
