Hinduism is a religion that is over 5000 years old and it has millions of followers all around the world. It is one of the oldest religions still practiced today. Hinduism is focused on karma (the law of cause and effect) and the idea of reincarnation (when a person dies, they come back to life in another body). Hindus believe in many gods and goddesses who are all aspects of one main god called Brahman. Hindus are also guided by the ancient texts called the Vedas, Upanishads and Bhagavad Gita. Hindus celebrate many holidays and visit sacred places of worship called temples. They practice yoga and meditation as spiritual pursuits.
