The Supreme Court of India correctly pointed out Hinduism as a religion, that incorporates all forms of belief without mandating the selection or elimination of any one single belief,“ It is a religion that has no single founder, no single scripture, and no single set of teachings. It has been described as Santana Dharma, namely, eternal faith, as it is the collective wisdom and inspiration of the centuries that Hinduism seeks to preach and propagate,” ---Hinduism has no single founder or scripture.
The Supreme Court failed to observe that present Hinduism is not ancient Santana Dharma or Vedic Religion because they did not consult historians.
Peep into the religious history: ~
Hinduism is not a religion. Rather, it is a group of castes found within India that share common beliefs while still remaining very different. Many may even argue that it is not a religion but more a way of life. The term "Hinduism" was not developed by the practitioners, but by groups outside the religions as a means for labeling the entire Indian people.
Many groups within Hinduism claim a sort of "going back to the Vedas". While these groups are attempting to create a bond with the Vedas, they will never be followers of Vedism while they still hold their core ideals.
These core beliefs are at odds with those of the Vedas. Many followers of Hinduism translate the Vedas to fit into Hindu thought by changing the translation to reflect the beliefs of monism, reincarnation, the caste system, and the absence of animal and human sacrifice. However, these poor translators
Santana Dharma or Vedic Religion has no founders, whereas Advaita and qualified Advaita and Dvaita and all other sects and castes identified as Hinduism are identified with their founders.
All of these castes have non-Vedic Gods and rituals barred by the Vedas. The dualism came only in the 12th century. The orthodox Advaita and Dvaita area is based on the Abrahamic framework.
Both Advaita and Dvaita schools are based on Vedas, and they condemn each other with Upanishads and Puranic citations and try to prove they are right and others are wrong. The orthodox Advaita has nothing to do with the ultimate truth or Brahman because they worship idols, human worship, and symbol worship and indulge in non-Vedic rituals barred by Vedas.
As one peeps into the annals of Indian religious history, Hinduism is not an ancient Sanatana Dharma or Vedic Religion. :~ Santthosh Kumar
