religion of the Vedas.
Some scholars hold that this religion
was brought to India by nomadic,
horse-riding warriors, a group known
as the Aryans, from the steppes of
central Asia. This has, in recent
years, become a matter of some
dispute in India. Regardless of where
they came from, the Aryans
practiced a sacrif ice-based religion that was centered around the
purifying and transformative
qualities of f ire, and that was
oriented toward influencing a vast
array of powerf ul gods, called devas.
Many of these gods were
personif ications of natural elements-
wind, f ire, water-while others werewarrior-like f igures.The Vedas, a vast
corpus of mythological and ritual
texts, describe this divine pantheon,
as well as prescribe, sometimes in
great detail, the rituals to be
performed to keep these gods
"happy," and thus insure that they
benignly interact with the human
realm.
The religious realm of the Vedas is
centered on the proper performance
of ritual sacrif ice, which, essentially,
involves the offering something of
value-an animal, food-in order to

Chronology
At f irst, only men followed the Buddha as
monks. Later, women were also allowed
to become nuns, but with many
restrictions reflecting the social customs of the time. According to Buddhist texts,
the Buddha objected to this at f irst, but
was persuaded by his disciple Ananda to
admit women. Some of the early texts
also suggested that women could not
become enlightened, but must f irst be

reborn as men. Feminist scholars of
Buddhism believe that these stories are
later additions to the texts that reflect
attitudes toward women in those times.
Some early Buddhist texts mention both
men and women who, like the Buddha,
became enlightened. The earliest
disciples, called arhat, also attained
enlightenment and were sent by the
Buddha to wander and teach on their
own. Soon there were many newconverts and the new religion rapidly
gained large numbers of followers.
Founder/s h Hinduism is formed of diverse
traditions and has no single founder.
Among its roots is the historical
Vedic religion of Iron Age India, and
as such Hinduism is often called the
"oldest living religion" or the "oldest
living major religion".
h Hinduism does not have a founder or
date of origin. Rather, it has been
traditionally viewed as a timeless
tradition that has been and
continues to be revealed to humans
at the start of each world cycle.

to Allah.
Though a Muslim honors several
prophets, Muhammad is considered
the last prophet and his words and
lifestyle are that person's authority.
To be a Muslim, one has to follow
f ive religious duties: 1. Repeat a
creed about Allah and Muhammad;
2. Recite certain prayers in Arabic
f ive times a day; 3. Give to the
needy; 4. One month each year, fast
from food, drink, sex and smoking
from sunrise to sunset; 5. Pilgrimage
once in one's lifetime to worship at a
shrine in Mecca. At death -- based on
one's faithf ulness to these duties -- a
Muslim hopes to enter Paradise. If
not, they will be eternally punished
in hell.
For many people, Islam matches
their expectations about religion and
deity. Islam teaches that there is one
supreme God, who is worshiped
through good deeds and disciplined
religious rituals. After death a person
is rewarded or punished according to
their religious devotion.

sent him with an upright, easy and
liberal law. Islam has not prescribed
any hard and tedious duties. "In the

religious law is characterized by
