Hinduism Pilgrimage Tour Package in India

The Earth is a home to a wide bouquet of religions that are strictly practiced by their devotees. With the increase in population, the religions are also increasing around the globe. There are three major religions which are practiced all over the world ‘Christianity’, ‘Hinduism’ and ‘Islam’ . Let's throw some more floodlights on the term Hinduism.

The term Hinduism refers to a religious custom, which originated in the subcontinent of India. Hinduism is also known as “Sanatana Dharma’ in Sanskrit i.e. the eternal path.

The word Hindu is derived from the river Sindhu, or Indus. Hindu was primarily a geographical term that referred to India or to a region of India (near the Sindhu) as long ago as the 6th century BC.

It is one of the oldest religion in the world, which is still practiced by people all over the globe. Hinduism is rated as the third largest religion in the world after Christianity and Islam. There are various sacred places of Hindus and thus people travel from far away to visit such places. The journey undertaken by such people is termed as Hindu pilgrimage. Hindus travel from far off places in order to visit the various Hindu Pilgrimages places.

The pilgrimages undertaken by the Hindus are not easy as they require a lot of devotion and determination. All the Hindu pilgrimage spots have their own importance, which make them famous all over. India being the country, where Hinduism was founded has various Hindu pilgrimage spots.

The Hindu community today is found primarily in India and neighboring Nepal, and in Bali in the Indonesian archipelago. Substantial Hindu communities are present in Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, Mauritius, Fiji, the West Indies, East Africa, and South Africa. Scattered Hindu communities are found in most parts of the Western world. Hindus today number nearly 900 million, including about 20 million who live outside India, making them the third largest religious community in the world, after Christians and Muslims.

Teachings of Hinduism :
Because defining Hinduism is so difficult and because we have called it the sum of the belief and practices of Hindus, it is best to approach Hinduism through its teachings.

Within Hinduism there are various schools of thought, which Hindu scholars have systematized in different ways. All of these schools have enriched Hinduism with their individual emphases: Nyāya on rigorous logic, Vaiseshika on atoms and the structure of matter, Sānkhya on numbers and categories, Yoga on meditation techniques, Mīmāmsā on the analysis of sacred texts, and Vedānta on the nature and experience of spirituality. Their teachings are usually summarized in texts called sūtras or aphorisms. These sūtras can be memorized easily and recited as a means of gaining spiritual focus.

According to the ancient mythology, an individual by going on a pilgrimage can wash away all his sins and be free of them. Pilgrimages are mostly undertaken in groups in a certain part of the year. According to the customs of Hinduism, Char Dham is the chief pilgrimage circuit of the Hindus.
