Fundamental Thoughts Of Hindu Mythology:
According to the Hindu Holy Books – ‘Abhishek’ (giving water to idols) and ‘Archana’ (worshipping) is performed to gain blessings.
Hindu ideology suggests that one can get rid of all his evil deeds through the devotion and Pooja of physical possessions (Idol/Statues).
Hindu Dev & Devi give their blessings only after multiple mantras have been filled and the Idol/Statues have been given the authority.
Only by adoring an idol & item and performing numerous Pooja can one be satisfied effortlessly?
“Athman,” or the faith in the soul, is one of the core ideas of Hinduism. This ideology states that life forms have a spirit, and all are part of the highest soul. The aim is “moksha,” which ends up as part of the ultimate soul in the cycle of rebirth.
