Hinduism is in some ways the most open-minded of the world's great religions. Maybe this is because India is composed of so many different people and cultures and languages. Respect, or at least tolerance, for other traditions grew gradually over the centuries. People borrowed each other's gods and goddesses, each other's spiritual practices, even each other's saints. In the end, India merged into one more or less unified Hindu Culture.
In this part, we'll look at the defining beliefs most Hindus share in common. Reincarnation. Karma. An immortal soul. An infinite ocean of divine energy that underlines the universe we perceive with our senses. And an inner universe of consciousness through which we connect with the whole.
