u should actually know that vedanta comes from hinduism. Followers of veda were termed as hindus in 17th century by persians. u have to know before saying anything. Check the video at 6:45 to 7:10.

it were the persians who named us hindu otherwise we r the vedic followers. spirituality comes from vedas rather than recognizing urself as hindu recognize urself as vedic follower. turn ur life towards spiritualism. so dont be confused about hinduism. its them who want to call us by this name so let them do what they want.let them recognize u with what name they want it cant kill the truth.

God is Love.
Today we only speak me, me, my house, my business, now my religion. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar is the only who is awake, we are all sleeping. He wants everybody to come together, He is pure Love.I never saw Him in my life, I just saw Him on Television, it see, like I already known Him. People false cannot see the truth.

ya, that’s what Hinduism is. Hinduism is in a way a geographical indicator (origin being…’a people living to the east of the river Indus’). The correct name of the religion that most Indians practise should actually be “Sanatana Dharma” (which, in Sanskrit, means The Eternal Law), but “Hinduism” has over the centuries come to be regarded as a synonym. Vedanta is very much a part of Hinduism.

I like the way the interviewer summarizes it: “As human beings we are driven to explore. To explain the inexplicable. Our intelligence means that at times we are doomed to suffer inner turmoil, despair, disillusionment when answers are not forthcoming. Whatever our religious beliefs, spirituality is rooted in the ideals of human nature. Being, a better person. Breathing exercises, meditation and prayer – they all help us open our minds. Take stock of who we are and to put life into perspective.”

Nice video. As a non-Hindu, I see the need for more religious and spiritual leaders to focus on inter-religious tolerance and peace.
