WORLD RELIGIONS

Detailed explanation-1: -Unlike other religions, Hinduism has no one founder but is instead a fusion of various beliefs. Around 1500 B.C., the Indo-Aryan people migrated to the Indus Valley, and their language and culture blended with that of the indigenous people living in the region.

Detailed explanation-2: -There is no ‘founder’ of Hinduism, nor single prophet or initial teacher. Hindus believe their religion has no identifiable beginning or end and, as such, often refer to it as Sanatana Dharma (the ‘Eternal Way’).

Detailed explanation-3: -Adherents hold that Hinduism-one of the principal faiths in the modern world, with about one billion followers-is the world’s oldest religion, with complete scriptural texts dating back 3, 000 years.
