Well, I decided to add Buddhism, jainism, and sikhism as a part of religions. I recogninze all these religions having a seperate identities, but at the same time i see them similar to vaishnavism, shaktism. All of these are different philosophies, but westerners made them seperate identities or united them all, because they didn't understand them.

At the end of the day, Hinduism is a way of life, a philosophy but for political resons they are all religions.

Thanks.

I am traditionally a Vaishnavist, but i believe in some aspects of Advaita Vedanta philosophy, and my own personal views.

What abt you?

Are you Agnostic or Atheist Hindu?
