Hinduism differs from other faiths like Christianity and Islam in
two ways. First of all, it does not believe in any dogma and rejects the
exclusive claim of any individual, however highly evolved, to the
monopoly of Truth. It believes that the Supreme Being may be
approached through several paths such as Knowledge (Dnyana),
Devotion (Bhakti), Action (Karma), and Yoga (Psychical Control). In
fact, in actual life, the path trodden by a seeker may be a combination
of two or more of these disciplines, depending on the choice of the
individual in consonance with his temperament aptitude and attitude.
Hinduism is not founded by any individual; it has grown or evolved
naturally, and, therefore, remains gloriously undefined. In fact, it
cannot be defined precisely as any other religion can be.
