HINDUISM - PART ONE PART TWO-
The term Hinduism was created by European scholars to classify the distinction between Brahmanism and Vedism, but for some differentiation between these two religious disciplines and Hinduism is practically impossible, in common language with this word indicates the last stage of the long journey of this religion. With those words, the Europeans wanted to enclose the "result of spiritual development of a people, but a powerful mixture of races, religious and social system of India, native, formed by the gradual acceptance by brahamanesimo original elements of Brahman and not already since the Counter-Buddhist, adheres to the majority of the population of modern India. It covers all the rituals, religious uses, the ideas, traditions and mythologies that have received their punishment, directly or indirectly through the scriptures and the requirements of the Brahmans. 'Again, H. von Stietecon says that "by means Hinduism not a religion but a group of religions, linked together by a common geographical space, with its history and socio-economic and cultural relations developed in it." The common ground that allows this unit is the differences in religion and Vedic Sanskrit, a heritage of beliefs and liturgies its of the Aryans, the people who settled in India in the second millennium BC
The word 'Hindu', with which definscono the followers of that religion derives from the Persian, and was used initially penetrated by the Muslims in the subcontinent to indicate the inhabitants Referring in particular to those who lived in the Indus region, and only later proved to be a religious connotation to denote those who had converted to Islam, while with regard to the Europeans, is the sixteenth century. using this term, which is derived from early "Hinduism."
The oldest form of religion in India is undoubtedly a naturalistic polytheism, which over time is to change enote in, and gain much value the sacrifices, it is also this feature could be said that this cult is "receptive" because it easily incorporates new elements unperturbed: it goes from the soul to the deepest philosophical speculations, and in the same vein is read the passage from Vedism to Brahmanism. Among the major figures, stands the Brahmin, the priest, and most prominent class of caste, which has among its tasks is to educate people and give them the path to supreme health.
In the Rig-Veda is to form what is called pantheism, from the great question of how the universe was created, who has been doing so. you get to the embrace of all creation to act reflected in the microcosm of the macrocosm. This politician was born outside of the priestly caste, but it was soon assimilated. The end of man is therefore to reach the Atman-Brahman (universal soul), and the world bows down full of pain: it is precisely here that we have 6 orthodox schools, and heterodox 10 (the latter through the work of the philosopher in Madhavacarya His is a compendium of all philosophical systems).
Brahmanism, which is included with the Visnuismo Saivism and Hinduism (although Brahmanism Hinduism came first), we can say the only religion in India, that resources over time, and still prevails in that as the Europeans call "Hinduism." In this doctrine you have the concept of a creator deity three times (Trimurti, "three bodies"): Brahma, Vishnu, Siva. The three deities were, however, as most western Brahma, who was in the fullest sense of the divine and pure, then Brahma came to identify with one or other of the two members of the triad, making it a dyad, so that then he had a vision unified with the further unification of the two deities Vishnu who had previously cast: then you get to call Hari-Hara: as you can see, at the end there was a tendency monotheistic.
