Welcome to Hinduism Community on the Hive Blockchain

An attempt to spread awareness about the Hindu religion. Hinduism on Hive blockchain is not intended to convert anyone into becoming a Hindu or adopt the Hindu way of life.

Hinduism cannot be limited to the term - religion. It is a way of life. So, nobody can be 'converted'. It is just a way of living according to a certain lifestyle in tune with nature.

There are many doubts that people have regarding many customs of the Hindus like why they wear marks on the forehead and threads on the wrists and neck.

Posts about Hindus and Hinduism will be written by the members and you are free to ask doubts or write posts yourself.

Let us start this noble venture on Hive with a prayer to Lord Ganesha. it is the custom to start anything new with a prayer to Lord Ganesh.

वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ ।

निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा ॥

The above prayer means :

1: (Salutations to Sri Ganesha) Who has a Curved Trunk, Who has a Large Body, and Whose Splendour is similar to Million Suns;
2: O Deva, Please Make my Undertakings Free of Obstacles, By extending Your Blessings in All my Works, Always.
