The Ultimate Guide to Hindu Gods, Hindu Beliefs, Hindu Rituals and Hindu Religion

In this audiobook we will explore numerous beliefs held by this diverse group of people. We will look at some of the legends of the divine "angels" that serve Brahman. Also, we will delve into some of the rituals that are common within Hinduism.

In addition we will do some comparative religion, looking at some of the similarities and differences between Hinduism and some other philosophies. This will allow us not only to gain greater insight into Hinduism but to see the common threads of philosophy found in many of the great religions of the world.

Hinduism is the oldest and the third largest religion by population. There are more than a billion Hindus in India, Nepal, Indonesia (Bali), Mauritius, Canada, New Zealand, Kenya, and elsewhere in the world who practice the faith. However, many scholars and practitioners believe that Hinduism is not a religion at all - it is a way of life, as Hinduism explains the purpose of human life, what you should and shouldn't do, how you should behave with others, and how you should carry out your duties and responsibilities.

Within this audiobook you'll find the answers to these questions and more. Just some of the topics covered include:

• The meaning of Hinduism
• Brahman and Atman
• Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva
• Indra and other key gods and godesses
• Durga, Kali, and Mariamman
• Karma
• Reincarnation
• Hindu rituals
• Hinduism versus other belief systems
• Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva
• Tales of the Brahmin
• And more!

It was just Ok

The narrator Sangita butchered the Hindu God names and nouns. For example Karma was pronounced more like Kama (Hindu God of love) which was confusing and annoying!

Good Information

Any additional comments?

Here the author presents advice for those who are thinking conversion, and what to do when you’re inside a Hindu temple. Whether you’re interested in reading about the religion or thinking about converting, there is a lot of really helpful data in the book, and it’s definitely worth reading.

Short But helpful

Any additional comments?

I feel it was too little. But did brief on a lot of various parts of Hinduism. But I want to know more

Good Overview Of Hinduism

Any additional comments?

Good intro to Hinduism. Got it for a class at Loyola and found it to be pretty effective!

Well Done

Any additional comments?

understanding Hinduism and its rich and humble beginning are very inspirational. I love the ideology of Hinduism and how it affects people with their beliefs and relationship with other people, and by combining it as a way of life is a life-changing event.

Awesome Information

Any additional comments?

I want to continually improve and explore something new. Hinduism earlier for me was a mystery. This book not only gave an answer but also excited me.

Very Detailed

Any additional comments?

The core of the Hinduism is covered by various stories and metaphors which were designed to convey the exact core values. In the light turn of events through the flow of time, the followers of the religion ended up caring only about this metaphoric crap and neglected all abstract values. This audio book has given me vital information. A must read for every Hindu and for those who want to know about this diverse religion.

Happy

Any additional comments?

This book was a pleasant way to be presented to the theories of Hinduism. Well written, comparatively short, and reasonably objective in its overview; the book highlights how Hinduism is not individually a "religion", but an entire culture.

Great Representation

Any additional comments?

This was a great presentation to the Hindu culture. Very informative. The Hindu myths are dated back to 5000 10000 years ago and are supposed to be even scientific. Very well explained and easy to understand.

Fascinating 😁

Great little book if you’re unfamiliar with Hinduism. I especially found the similarities with other religions especially interesting.
