Hindu Beliefs
The Hindu concept of god is hard for nonHindus to understand. It has been described as;
Polytheistic a religion of many gods
Monotheistic belief in only one god.
Monistic god as an impersonal and
unknowable entity.
Scholars refer to this confusion as Hinduisms
tolerant characteristic. It allows its members
to follow their own conscience and does not
impose its beliefs on others, nor does it believe
in conversion.
