Concepts<\/h3>\n

\"\"This Concepts section is divided into two subsections \u2013 Key Concepts<\/a> and Core Values<\/a>. It helps us understand how Hindus see and respond to the world. Religious phenomena make greater sense when examined in the light of the rationale and purposes behind them.<\/p>\n

Some might call this section “core beliefs.” However, the notion of religion as a belief system is alien to most Hindus, who talk of their tradition as a universal science. Indeed, the tradition has largely managed to blend religious commitment with a spirit of philosophical inquiry. We might more accurately denote this section Hindu ideals, expressed as philosophical concepts (Key Concepts section<\/a>) and personal values (Core Values section<\/a>).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n
