@RamTripathi: No need as per WP:MOS, the concept has a separate article i.e. Hindu atheism. Also Wikipedia is not a reliable source .245CMR.👥📜 14:56, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

also you are not meant to copy paste another article into this. Just leave the link Hindu atheism in Hinduism#See also section. .245CMR.👥📜 14:59, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

But people generally ignore see also section so what if i add a new section of these articles and give reference to original page? RamTripathi33 (talk) 15:02, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding this comment "Also people dont generally go to those articles to know hinduism briefly", If people are interested they will go there, we cannot push it in this article. .245CMR.👥📜 15:02, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

But dont you think that this main article lacks something very special of hinduism that it recognises atheism and also it being the most pluralistic of all world religions which has no mention in the main article. RamTripathi33 (talk) 15:06, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@RamTripathi33: Hinduism is so large that not everything can be incorporated into this one article. Atheism ideas are briefly explain in the article. Further info is meant to be provided in that separate article..245CMR.👥📜 15:08, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

But at least keep refernce to the hindu shaddarshan or six schools of thought which are essential to understand the diverse practices. RamTripathi33 (talk) 15:12, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Picture representing the Trimurti

I think that the picture of the Hoysaleswara temple in Halebidu, should name the Trimurti in this order: Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. We can’t recognize them on the picture, but they are always presented in this order: the creator, the sustainer and the destroyer.--Faunus (talk) 00:41, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Faunus: It is already mentioned, if you are referring to the picture in Hinduism#Beliefs section. .245CMR.👥📜 04:45, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes it is in Hinduism#Beliefs section. Actually, they are presented as Brahma, Shiva and Vishnu. This is not the usual order. --Faunus (talk) 19:44, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Faunus: That is because Hoysaleswara is a Shaivite (Shiva-centric) temple . What about these images File:Brahma,_Vishnu_and_Shiva_seated_on_lotuses_with_their_consorts,_ca1770.jpg and File:Trimurti ellora.jpg .245CMR.👥📜 03:37, 23 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Number of Hindus

@Naveen Ramanathan: There may well be 1.25 billion Hindus but the cited source says 1.033. You need to either find a different source or leave it at the 1 billion number. --RegentsPark (comment) 22:25, 1 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oldest religion

I don't think that hindu or sanatan religion is the oldest religion in india because oldest book in hindu dharm is rig Veda.the lenguage of rig Veda is devnagari script and dhamma script is older than devnagari script. wikipidia please correct this information this is my humble request Rajiv15071989 (talk) 22:21, 5 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It says "one of the oldest" if you check next line. Also it is based on reliable sources, which you didn't provided..245CMR.👥📜 05:11, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
What is "dhamma script"? Pali? Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 05:13, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Animal Sacrifice in Hinduism

The principle of non-violence to animals has been so thoroughly adopted in Hinduism that animal sacrifice is uncommon[417] and historically reduced to a vestigial marginal practice.[418].

This is a qualitative statement, Bengali Hindus, for example, alone account for around 145 million of the hindus, and they all observe that importance of animal sacrifice in the Shakta tradition.
