HINDUISM....... adapting to a changing society?
Hinduism a religion is often viewed as complex by many outsiders. Hinduism stresses unity and diversity so it is no wonder that the religion adapts to a changing society. Hinduism has a great number of deities.This religion has many forms of worship. Is that a result of Hinduism adapting to a changing society? This is very possible. Because there is no single founder in Hindu religion it originated from variety of ideas and beliefs. It grew from the vedic traditions. Although the religion may adapt as a whole the spiritual force called Brahman is unchanging. There are many gods and many priests. Hinduism adapting to different people's needs developed Gautama Buddha, a new religion that spread through India and other Asian countries. Both religions focused on spirituality and moral duties.
