The story argues that Hinduism differs fundamentally from other religions such as Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Jainism, Zoroastrianism, and Sikhism. Unlike these religions, which are based on the teachings of specific historical figures and have codified holy texts, Hinduism lacks a singular founder or organized structure. It does not have a central holy book or compulsory practices, allowing individuals to worship freely according to personal choice. The narrative highlights that religions like Christianity, which originated from Judaism, and Islam, which follows the teachings of Prophet Mohammed, are based on the lives and teachings of specific prophets whose messages are documented in holy scriptures. Similarly, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, and Zoroastrianism are rooted in the teachings of notable figures like Buddha and Guru Nanak. In contrast, Hinduism encompasses a wide array of deities and teachings passed down through generations by sages, but it lacks historical evidence for figures like Shiva, Vishnu, and others. While it includes revered texts such as the Ramayana and the Upanishads, these do not provide the structured teachings found in other religions. Overall, Hinduism is portrayed as a more fluid and personal spiritual practice without the formal structure characteristic of other major world religions.
