happier."
There are many reasons why Hindus are so contented,
but I'll point out some of the important reasons I
believe that Hindus are happier than most people of
many other religions. One important reason is that
Hindus don't pursue love, which is sometimes lust,
but they follow dharma. That means taking care
of the family and society. But an even more
important reason is that Hindus believe in
Reincarnation (karma), which means every human being
is at a different level of consciousness so they have
different needs in spirituality.
Hinduism provides this as it gives complete freedom
of thoughts and beliefs. There are some Hindus who
are happy doing pujas and others are happy doing
yagnas, some are happy just doing meditation while
others are atheist. There are some who like to go on
pilgrimages, while others are happy not having to go
to Temple. Some like to read spiritual books or
believe in no form for God. Some Hindus enjoy going
to Temple or Satsang while others like to follow and
worship a Guru. People of different levels of
consciousness are all happy doing their thing.
This diverse way of spirituality does not exist in
monoistic religions for example Islam and Christianity
which has only one God, one name, one book, and only
one way to worship on the same day. Hindus not only
have many spiritual books but there are some still
being written. Hindus are also happy because they
respect and love people of all religions, and
believe in non-violence. Hindus not only worship
murtis (idols) but they can worship man as God as
well. This variety of spiritualism makes man very
happy and contented. Some Hindus complain that
Hindus do too much murti pujas.This freedom is like a
democracy, everyone is happily complaining.
If you want to be happy, become a Hindu again because
variety is the spice of life. Hindus are happy at
every level. Hindus believe God is one but names are
many, truth is one but religions are many.
