The two versions diverge from one another in quite spectacular fashion, so brace yourself for a turbulent ride if you truly want to delve deep into the theme.

What fullfilment do you get from hinduism 9. what are some of its practices hinduism is a religion which is one of the oldest living religions in the world. its origions are undated but are believed to be linked with the evolution of mankind in the religion. there is no single founder of this religion but there are those who have breathed life into it from time to time. there is no single teaching per se it is basically a way of life... or a collage of various way of lives. there are various practises... the brahiminical practices which believes in vegetarianism... rituals and chanting... the shakta practices whch worship the mother goddess (shakti - energy) the tantrik practices which believes in worshiping human sexuality and powers which unleash therein. the aghori practices of worshiping of the bhutas(ghosts) along with practice such as eating human flesh... it is a strange thing how all these practices can be a part of hinduism but they are accepted as a inherent part of hinduism...
