Description

Essay from the year 2024 in the subject Theology - Hinduism, grade: 90, Nations University, course: Hinduism and Christianity, language: English, abstract: This paper attempts to emphasize the contradiction between what Hinduism promotes and Christianity's perspective, focusing on the doctrines of God, creation, and reconciliation. Hinduism strongly supports humanist ideals such as faith in rationality, freedom of thinking, and the necessity for humans to accept their responsibilities to society and the world. In Hinduism, one may not believe in a personal God, yet one cannot abandon dharma, the path of virtue and obligation. In Hinduism, the self (atman) is defined as the eternal essence of the individual, distinct from the body, that experiences reincarnation (punarjanma) within the round of existence (samsara) by the law of action (karma) unless or until it achieves liberation (moksha).
