Weekly Question #1

Hinduism overall is a interesting religion but what I find most interesting about it is the way they view other religions, they do not criticize them, but instead they look at them as other paths to reach the same Divine Purpose. edited 19:45, 7 Feb 2012

what i would say about them is that their religion is very strange from mine and sometimes i thought that its different from mine. the way they worship and they have many gods thats the most intriguing part that i dont like about and the part that i dont want to belive. so strange don't you think?

An intriguing aspect of Hinduism would be the Polytheistic approach! It is really intriguing to know that people do believe in a "destructive" God (SHIVA), which I always had the impression that God is "all-benevolent" and such identifications wouldn't fit in with the all-benevolent being. edited 10:37, 9 Feb 2012

From my understanding is that, the Hinduism religion is different from the Christianity in many ways, but what i find most interesting part of the Hinduism's religion is the meditation, you find peace while meditate- you forget all the things that are troubling you, all you think of is nothing but peace.

Has for me is the just like what my other classmates as said. It seems so strange to me because i only know that there only one God to worship to but as for Hinduism, they have lots of god to worship to. Each of the God got their own position or role to play. So it seems so strange because in my own understanding we have only one God, our father in heaven and he is our creator.

According to my own understanding, Hinduism is the world largest oldest religion as held in India. Many different kinds of people follow this religion.this religion they go under many god and different statue and different meaning. as for Christianity follow only one god and Hinduism follow many god.

okay as i see it, the most interesting aspect that approach me is their caste system. How it is structures if your born as a Brahman your are born to be priest. that is your duty in life and you have to perform no matter what and you can't change it. what so interesting about this caste system is the untouchables or the out-castes, if your are an out-caste, your duty is to do the thing that normally people of high ranks do not do which is sad and you can't seek to change that if you are a male.

The thing i like about Hinduism is the caste system. Especially the fact that woman can move up from lower caste to a higher level. That is if the man she marries is in a higher caste. I really like this because in most traditions or cultures women do not have that kind of privilege.
