Hinduism is an ancient religion with no founder or known date of
origin. The term "Hinduism" simply derives from the word "India"
and refers to a wide variety of religious traditions and
philosophies that have developed in India over thousands of
years. Most Hindus worship one or more deities, believe in
reincarnation, value the practice of meditation, and observe
festive holidays like Diwali and Holi. Learn more about Hinduism
