About this ebook

Essay from the year 2024 in the subject Theology - Comparative Religion Studies, grade: 1,3, Nations University (NationsUniversity), course: HINDUISM AND CHRISTIANITY, language: English, abstract: This study investigates the Hindu concept of gods and their roles among Hindus. When studying world religion, there are two major religions within the Dharma tradition: Hinduism and Buddhism, as well as three major religions within the Abrahamic tradition: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Judaism held Yahweh to be their creator, supplier, and sustainer, and that he was preeminent over all. Christianity, which developed from Judaism, inherited the previously described features of Yahweh and worshipped Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Allah is the object of Islamic worship. La Ilaha is the belief in the divine nature, which means that Allah is the only one to whom people should dedicate their words and actions of worship. The majority of schools of Hinduism are henotheistic, which means they worship a single deity known as "Brahman" but also recognize additional gods and goddesses. Followers think there are several paths to their god.
