Religion
in India, which is the land of incredible, is a
collection of divine writings, varied beliefs and
philosophical schools, many sacred legends and
innumerable myths.
Despite their complexity, numbers and variation, this
amalgam of beliefs possess a cohesive, surprising and
astonishing order.
If an ancient Iran people's philosophy and
worldview are summed up in ancient literature, in
India, Indian philosophy is nurtured within the
confines of Hindu religion, with its many
manifestations in Indian stone carvings.
The earliest school of Hindu thought of the Vedic
period appeared in the form of the books of Rig Veda.
In this period, there were thirty three principal
gods, which formed the basis of Vedic thought.
