| | Introduction to Hinduism (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | Hinduism is an incredibly vast and complex religion, and every attempt to explain it adequately falls short. |
 | | Hinduism is the oldest living religious tradition in the world today, dating back to at least 3,000 B.C. Hinduism was originally referred to as Sanatana Dharma, which is a Sanskrit term that means "Eternal Religion". |
 | | Consequently, there is a trinity of the three major Gods and Goddesses of Hinduism: Brahma, the Creator, with His consort Sarasvati, the Goddess of Learning and Knowledge; Vishnu, the Preserver, with His consort Laxmi, the Goddess of Wealth and Prosperity; and Shiva, the Destroyer, with His consort Shakti, the Goddess of Power and Strength. |
