Life is run by faith and won by grace

The original name is sanatan dharm which means eternal. And dharma means virtuous deeds and not religion. Instead, there are a lot of ways in sanatan dharm to get moksha. Some people took one of the way to get moksha and made it their own religion which later got corrupted, like muslims. Even in sanatan dharma, moksha is not piece if cake. It is but it isn't. This seems confusing right? The main goal or essence of sanatan dharma is for us to realize our true self.

For example, ask this question to yourself. Who you are? Your body is given by your parents, your name is given by your family, your ideas were influenced by society and books you read,etc. But who you really are?? This the essence of Sanatan Dharma and the real Moksha, which is to get self realized. Every religion, directly or indirectly is influenced by Sanatan Dharma.

It is so because according to scientists, the land which are now divided as seven continents were not separated a long time ago. They then seperated because of a drift and that's how the lands got seperated. And that's how ideas of religions reached different places. India still carries the original sanatan dharma which was not mixed by any other people.

While because of invaders and their effects were then started showing on the real dharma and that's how these superstitions and caste discrimination all spreaded. And we got the product which is now known as hinduism. Still, I believe hinduism is best part of sanatan dharma and better than all others. Now, there are alot of paths for moksha, and the summary of all of that is to go to thoughtless state, to the void, to the nothingness which is the real truth. Real truth, is lord rudra, nothingness, shunya.

As hinduism, is not only path to moksha but it is the one which makes a lot of sense. Now, the real moksha kaivalaya moksha, in which you become one with god without duality, is attained by self realisations of your true self. And also in bhagvad gita, it is written that, like all rivers at last merges in ocean, all prayers to any god or any form reaches the supreme. So, hinduism doesn't say that this religion is bad and this is good. It says that, everyone and everyform is god.

Hinduism is not a “Faith” it is a way of arranging and orientating your life. “Faith” is the belief in something without evidence. In Sanskrit faith is translated as ?raddhā which is defined as “satyabuddhyā avadhāra?am” which means conviction based on reason. Dharma is an ethical and moral way of life - principles which guide you in your acts of daily living and regulates your interaction and transaction with others, and the world around you.

Faith is really not important in Hinduism is getting salvation. Hinduism does not care about your religion, sex, caste, rich or poor, etc. The only thing that is important is what you did. Every action will have an equal reaction. If you do good you end up getting good. If you do bad you end up getting bad. Every being comes to this world with a mix of good and bad things done by themselves in their past lives. What happens to you in this life is the result of your actions in past lives.

This cycle of lives will continue until you achieve a neutral state where you are left without any good or bad. As per Hinduism, good deeds and bad deeds are both equal and for any person who want to achieve salvation should get rid of both. The ultimate goal of Hinduism is to make one realize that God is above everything, above good and bad, above joy and sad, above love and hate, above any two extremes, he is in everything, in everyone and every place and within you as well.

The Temples, Puranas, Vedas, etc are only to help you to understand this ultimate goal. These help you to clean yourself from inside Once you start to clean yourself from inside, your inner eye starts opening and then you will start finding answer for all the questions that you may have in the past; questions like Who is God? Does God really exist? if so where is he? why does it happen to only me? I did nothing wrong or bad but all I get is bad karma? etc.,

Hinduism says it doesn't matter what you believe but understanding the true meaning of god and achieving the state of the ultimate goal said above is important and only then you will achieve salvation. It's important to see everything else in the same way as you see yourself. You need to start seeing yourself in a friend, enemy, plants, tree, animals, thief, killer, etc. Hate is the first thing that one should let go of.

Lord Rama is known as a perfect human being and lord Shiva as supreme god; god of gods. You need to become lord Rama to understand lord Shiva. As per Hindusim, a journey of any soul starts with the question “Who is God?” and ends with a realization that “i am god, I am in everything and everywhere. it's only me but nothing else exist". Hinduism is a path to make human into god.

Easiest way to attain salvation is to offer all your karma to god. If you achieve something offer it god; if you are sad offer the cause of your sadness to god. Offer everything in every step of your life to god. Self submission to god is easiest way to achieve salvation. Jay Shri Krishna
