Namaste,

You composed some informative answers yet created another question....expound on the geographical region please.

The comment regarding all worshiping the same G!d resonates...but they are doing it wrong...is also familiar.

Thanks Wil

In terms of geographic region I meant with Hinduism commonly being taken to mean "India-ism". A number of people I've met claim that "you are just born Hindu" or that "it's a thing for India only", and I think overall it has grown into a kind of national identity? Sanatana-dharm - the eternal dharma, on the other hand I see as a much clearer definition of a religious belief.

From your posts I pick up some insight of both Eastern and Western flavours, do you follow any particular schools of thought, or are your beliefs more universal?

I'm a Christian that accepts other thought and honors others beliefs.
