Hinduism Explained

 

The purpose of this website is to address many of the misconceptions around Hinduism. I've studied Hinduism for many years. The articles on this website do not reflect the unwarranted opinions of a pseudo-guru. I'm a self-teaching student of Sanatan Dharma (The Eternal Duty - also known as Hinduism) hoping to share my spiritual growth with anyone this website is able to reach. The statements on this website are factual, and reliable and I will provide sources and references where available and applicable. Any matters of opinion will indicated as such.

With that said, I am a student as well. If you have any contribution that could add to this information, or if you have any questions, comments, additions to articles, rebuttals, etc. that you'd like to make, please email them to . More importantly, if you have any myths or misconceptions you've heard, that you think should be addressed here, send those to me as well! Any questions I am unable to personally answer, I will try my best to find an answer for.  If you'd like to be added to my mailing list and notified of future updates to this website and its articles please email me at the same address. Enjoy.
