living in western world, i know the hallowness of christian value and ethics, all businessmen have killed the whole ethics of western people , they are totaly commercialised, money istheir god, there no family life, no peace of mind, younger generation are totaly directionless, most of them resorting to drug and hippism,,, back in india, most of people are still following the old dharma and there is still life left in their blood of celebration of festivities of happyness and enjoyment,, western life is totaly cosmetic, totaly manipulated and devoid of any character of love, secrifice and faith,,, religion is left only for old generation,,,,to sit and pass their time

Hinduism is very different from Jainism, Sikhism and Buddhism... For eg. Buddha himself remarked about the Vedas, the main scripture of the Hindus, that they are a 'pathless jungle'... Just because all originated in India does not mean they are same....
At one point in India, there were many religions Shavaism, Brahmanism, vasihnavism who were worshippers of Shiva, Brahma and Vishnu and that is y we have the Puranas where the followers of each god have belittled on insulted teh other gods... read the puranas and u will find out... all are myths....
