Hinduism is based principally on four VEDAS . These four Books of Hinduism cover every aspect of leading ones life. These books are in Sanskrit.
Vedic hymens are chanted in all the Hindu rituals from marriage as well as cremation.Based on these books Hinduism is a way of life.
In these four Vedas there is no scope for worshiping of a deity.
GOD is formless and one but for concentration of mind Deity worship was introduced later.GOD is all pervading is the common belief of Hinduism.Hence what ever you choose can be assumed to project image of GOD.
There as they say are 330 million Gods and Goddesses in Hinduism. It reflects that GOD IS all pervading and exists every where. There is nothing which does not have soul and spiritual content.this is the highest fundamental commonality which makes Hinduism so open and accepting.
The highest form of understanding GOD or BRAHMA is when in very deep Meditation, after the mind is completely shed in Shav Asana( state of dead body,which is the last stage in Yoga achievement,Rishis like Shankracharya and many others experienced one-Nessa with God.They suddenly realized and without words felt 'AHAM BRAHMA ASTI' meaning there by' I am God'.They were able to get dissolved while living and feel part of the whole universe.
This comes with greatest possible renunciation and Yoga practice after the physical aspect is fully tamed.
Hence for these Rush's or Gurus every thing reelected and reminded the existence of GOD.
The vastness of Hinduiism was slowly misused and lesser values like idle worship where a common man found some mode of concentration ,were introduced.
Krishna too was a hindu scholar.
When He says In GITA that I am GOD is because of this basic VEDIC philosophy.AHAM BRAHAM ASTI.People started worshipping Him as God.
GITA is nothing but concentrated form of VEDIC philsophy.
Krishna learnt about Vedas in a religious school when He was young.It is very confusing for many like you when they see so many forms of Gods etc.You will find snakes,elephans,birds,etc.etc being worshipped as Gods.This is Hinduism which absorbs every aspect of life but has a common ground to stand on.
I go one step furhter then this and say look into the soul of this planet and see what I see.I say with clarity that my realization goes beyond vedas. Every religion has lived its life and become a political game.Like yoga is physical and mental achievement without seeking one ness with God.Incase you wantany clarification Contact me on, mraju69@yahoo.com .
I have no religious affliations or any cult.I am all by myself.

As for as materialistic world is concerned I have been very success full.I have more then I need and , I paid paid full attention to my faimily. All have settled down well and are i ndependent.I have no doubts or questions for which I need any clarifications.
Yes there are limitations of human language to convey my deepest thoughts as i feel within. Individuals can only understand through a language. Language is too technical in nature as it depends upon the vinbrations of ear drums.I beg your pardon if i could not make you understand what I want to convey. I am not a use less person as some of the readers are trying to make out.I am an engineer, shipping master, fighter pilot,commercial pilot and stil
Do Dust convey essence of God or the organised religions
After all of that I know that you meant to put a question in there somewhere, so here's an answer, there's only one GOD and HE say that we should have no other gods before HIM, not that there is another real god to serve but there is a thing called making things with no life a god like an idol, money, jewels, gold, silver, cars and so on. Even though Satan has bought all these diff rent religions into the world there still remains only one way to the FATHER.
You poor soul, so full of words and ideas. My advice (I, too, know God) is go sit under a tree in a park for a day. Watch the sunlight play in the leaves, watch the leaves play in the wind. They know God quite well without any words. What foolishness makes you think your understanding needs to be conveyed? The light and the balance are all there for everyone who cares to look, and it is no less if they don't.
Hinduism began as the Vedic religion, yes, but the Vedas, though held as sacred in Hinduism are not the only sacred texts. And many of the other sacred texts like the many Upanishads for example, restate most of what the Vedas teach. And not all prayers, chants, etc come from the Vedas. Some come from other sacred texts. That is an important point to note (I used to think they all only came from the Vedas, but after discussing with several Hindu priests, I now know that this is not true that the other sacred texts are also used).
As for the 330 million gods and goddesses in Hinduism, you really should be careful about this. Hinduism teaches that there is one God...Brahman (or Ishvara is another term used). This One is both formless and yet is also multiform ed. The mutts (images used for worship) take a form representing an aspect of the One and each takes 108 names (108 is a sacred number in Vedic astrology...each of the 108 names). Therefore the 330,000,000 is probably only considering all the names of the One. And let us not forget that Mahadevas like Shiva and Vishnu have at least 1000 names.
Hinduism is a religion that is constantly evolving and we should remember that within it includes not only the four major denominations, but thousands of other sects within each of the denominations.
My sect is Ganapatya, which is within the denomination of Saivism. This is only a small portion of the whole of Hinduism...yet the absolute truth is that there is only the One who can only be described as sat-cit-Amanda.
