Page "Pantheism" Paragraph 33

Just as all rivers lead to the one ocean, Hindus believe that all religious pathways lead to the same eternal truth.

Sanatan Dharma therefore teaches religious tolerance.

Even within Hinduism, there are different approaches to reaching the Divine based on an individual ’ s own characteristics.

This idea of pantheism is traceable from the Puranas which are the nearest allegorical representations created for the masses whereas Vedas were for the highly literate.

All Mahāvākyas ( Great Sayings ) of the Upanishads, in one way or another, seem to indicate the unity of the world with the Brahman.

It further says, " This whole universe is Brahman, from Brahman to a clod of earth.

" Pantheism is a key component of Advaita philosophy.

Other subdivisions of Vedanta do not strictly hold this tenet.
