"Hinduism is the most logical and attractive religion of all times. But there is no organized religion called Hinduism. It is a culture; the culture of the people who lived for centuries in the 'Land of Indus River': an area that stretch from modern-day Myanmar to Iraq and from Afghanistan to Sri Lanka." Hinduism is like putty. It can be moulded by anyone and everyone to suit their ideas. If you ask 10 people what is Hinduism, you will get 11 answers. Like the blind men who touch different parts of an elephant and then describe what an elephant looks like, different people describe Hinduism differently. There is no uniformity of understanding what Hinduism is. However, two ancient fictional stories based in the 'Land of Indus River' have come to define the character of the people of Indus River valley for eons. They are the epics called 'Ramayana' and 'Mahabharata'. This book explains the varied aspects of Hinduism.
