The Religious History Of India

India is the second most populated country in the world and has been an important part of the international economy for centuries. It is the birthplace of several important world religions including Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism which makes it a major part of world heritage.


The origins of Hindu philosophy and mythology were established from 1700 to 500 BC in what is called the Vedic period. There are still many practices and beliefs that are treasured today which came from this time period including karma, yoga, Dharma, and moksa. Hinduism has gone through many notable changes throughout the years but has been the major religion in India for centuries. Hindu temples also contribute to world heritage because their stunning architecture, design, and preservation of religious history helps researchers better understand the customs of ancient peoples who worshipped in them. It is estimated that more than 80% of the population belongs to the Hindu faith, making it the home of the largest Hindu population on Earth.

Although less than 1% of Indians claim to be Buddhist, this religion originated in India and still has major impacts on local culture. Buddhist teachings spread from the area of Bihar, India throughout Asia from ancient times. In the 13th century, it declined drastically as a religion in India but many of its core concepts had a permanent influence on the Hindu religion. It is still practiced in the Himalayan religions of India and has recently been adopted by many of the intellectual elite of the country. The birth of two world religions, apart from many other contributions, makes India an important part of world heritage.
