Hinduism

Hinduism is probably one of the few and maybe only religion that focuses their beliefs on the environmental ethics. Ramayan is one example of that, as well as many more, such as Mahabharta, Vedas, Puranas, and Smirti. These earliest stories contain messages for preservation of the environment.




Hinduism has been around for probably billions of years. Some scholars say that it all might have started around c. 2000 B.C.E


Hinduism is the third largest religion in the world, consisiting of about 940 million Hindus, mainly living in India.

In Hinduism relgions, they believe in dharma. Dharma means mortality, virtue, and even relgion. Dharma refers to the power that upholds the universe and society. It also refers to the person's responsibility of regarding class, which is called "Varna." There are four classes: Brahmans, Kshatriya, Vaishyas, and Shudras. Hindus also belief in karma, which means that every action has an equal reaction either at that time or later in life. They also belief in reincarnation which refers to rebirth after death. But just remember that if you have bad karma and do things against what dharma believes you might not go through the process of reincarnation.
