Introduction to Hinduism

Hindus have received their religion through revelation, the Veda, which is the sourcebook of Hindu tradition. Hindus maintain that the Veda is without beginning and without end. How can a book (or books) be without beginning or end? By the Veda, Hindus do not mean books. They mean the accumulated treasure of spiritual laws discovered by numerous sages and saints at different times in the course of the long history of Hindus and Hinduism in India. The Vedas teach that creation is without beginning or end and appears in eternal cycles of creation and dissolution. Hindus believe that the soul of man (Sanskrit: atman) is eternal and immortal, perfect and infinite, and death means only a change of center from one body to another. The present is determined by our past actions; and the future by the present. The whole purpose of Hindu religion is to become perfect, to become divine, to reach God, and see God. This reaching God, seeing God, and becoming perfect
