Hindu tradition
Ancient Indian faith
Hindu tradition refers to the religious, cultural, and philosophical practices that have developed over millennia on the Indian subcontinent, encompassing a vast array of beliefs, rituals, texts, and social customs associated with Hinduism.
The phrase emphasizes continuity and transmission across generations rather than fixed doctrine, covering everything from Vedic scripture and temple worship to yoga, meditation, and festival observances.
According to Hindu tradition, the soul passes through many lifetimes.
