Humanity

This is what Hinduism believe who we are, our nature and role, our destination and about life and death:

In Hinduism Hindus teach their people that everything comes from God and that the role of humans is to look after the earth they live on and all creatures that God has created. They believe in karma and that each person creates his or her own destiny, through thoughts and deeds. They also believe that everyone’s souls will reincarnate through many lives until all karma is resolved and fixed.

Hindus believe that the almighty god is unknowable to humans and some Hindus are pantheistic and worship many gods. To Hindus, life is very sacred that has to be loved. This is why they ahimsa and noninjury. Ahimsa is the belief that all forms of life are sacred and avoid violence.

 * Nine Hinduism Beliefs:**
 * 1) Hindus believe in a one, all-pervasive Supreme Being who is both immanent and transcendent, both Creator and Unmanifest Reality.
 * 2) Hindus believe in the divinity of the four Vedas, the world's most ancient scripture, and venerate the Agamas as equally revealed. These primordial hymns are God's word and the bedrock of Sanatana Dharma, the eternal religion.
 * 3) Hindus believe that the universe undergoes endless cycles of creation, preservation and dissolution.
 * 4) Hindus believe in karma, the law of cause and effect by which each individual creates his own destiny by his thoughts, words and deeds.
 * 5) Hindus believe that the soul reincarnates, evolving through many births until all karmas have been resolved, and moksha, liberation from the cycle of rebirth, is attained. Not a single soul will be deprived of this destiny.
 * 6) Hindus believe that divine beings exist in unseen worlds and that temple worship, rituals, sacraments and personal devotionals create a communion with these devas and Gods.
 * 7) Hindus believe that an enlightened master, or satguru, is essential to know the Transcendent Absolute, as are personal discipline, good conduct, purification, pilgrimage, self-inquiry, meditation and surrender in God.
 * 8) Hindus believe that all life is sacred, to be loved and revered, and therefore practice ahimsa, noninjury, in thought, word and deed.
 * 9) Hindus believe that no religion teaches the only way to salvation above all others, but that all genuine paths are facets of God's Light, deserving tolerance and understanding.

I think Hinduism thoughts and beliefs on the role of humans is very interesting and I love the fact that they believe in karma and how one person will reincarnate and live through life again and again until they make no more mistakes in life.

Posted Aug 13, 2009 11:30 am || It is quite interesting. I don't know that they believe in Karma and karma is not only from Hinduism and also buddahism as well. :D Posted Aug 13, 2009 12:23 pm  ||
