	Hinduism - Free Encyclopedia of Thelema
		Hinduism has often been confused to be polytheistic as many of Hinduism's adherents are monists, and view multiple manifestations of the one God or source of being.
		Hinduism rests on the spiritual bedrock of the Vedas, hence Veda Dharma, and their mystic issue, the Upanishads, as well as the teachings of many great Hindu gurus through the ages.
		Thus, Hindu image worship is a form of iconolatry, in which the symbols are venerated as putative sigils of divinity, as opposed to idolatry, a charge often levied (erroneously) at Hindus.

	Manu Smriti - (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		It is one of the eighteen Smritis of the Dharma Sastra (or "laws of righteous conduct"); Smriti means "what is remembered" and is applied in general to a Hindu text other than the Vedas, including traditional Indian epics, the Puranas, and science and grammar treatises.
		Some of these laws codify the Hindu caste system and discuss the "stages of life for a twice-born man".
		However, it must be noted again that since Hinduism is a non-uniform religion and has no central dogma, and further, as Manu Smriti is a subsidary text, these injunctions have never been practically applied in any Hindu rule.
