HINDUISM is neither a faith nor only a lifestyle. Abrahamic Traditions are religions (which means linking up with GOD ). We’re a Dharmic custom whose purpose is to make sense of our human situation and resolving it. We’re not even a ‘Means of Life’. As that demeans us as being a cultural and social phenomenon. We’re an historic custom attempting to make sense of ourselves and the world we encounter -A DHARMIC TRADITION.
