The history of Indian religion began with the Vedic religion, with its philosophy being 
summarized in the Upanishads, now a sacred text of Hinduism. Centuries later, around the 6th 
century CE, India saw the birth of Buddhism and Jainism. Lastly, Sikhism was founded in the 
15th century by Guru Nanak. [3] 
Quick Facts: India is home to the world's most impressive religious diversity. About 80% 
of the population practices Hinduism, with Islam being the second most practiced religion. Four

Religion in India: India has a population of 1.3 billion people and a huge amount of 
diversity in which there are 7 major different religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, 
Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. According to the census, about 80% of the population of India 
is Hindu, while 14% are Muslim, 2.3% are Christians, 1.7% are Sikh, and 0.7% are Buddhist. 
Religion, as it is easy to see, has always been a fundamental part of Indian culture, and the law 
and customs of the country establish religious tolerance: the freedom of religion, according to the 
Constitution of India, is a fundamental right. If we want to understand this complex scenario, it 
is important to distinguish between indigenous religions and foreign religions. [5] 
Hinduism (the world's third largest religion) is a religion and a way of life, and the most 
important religion practiced in India. It is believed to be the oldest religion in the world, and its 
complex philosophy, cosmology and mythology never cease to amaze. There are various 
scriptures considered sacred by Hindus, and some of the most important ones are the Vedas, the 
Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, and the Ramayana. These texts play a fundamental part in the 
daily life of every practitioner, as they are a source of wisdom and authority. Some of the most 
recurring teachings of these scriptures are the nature of existence, the human condition, the 
moral order of the universe, and the search for serenity. The most important Hindu beliefs are the 
four Purusārthas, or the proper goals of human life. These goals include: Dharma (ethics/duties), 
Artha (prosperity), Kama (desires), Moksha (freedom from the cycle of death and rebirth). [6] 
Other important concepts in Hinduism include: Karma—which establishes that every 
action in this life will have a long-lasting consequence. Samsāra—the cycle of death and rebirth. 
The soul continues to come back to the world in different incarnations until it reaches moksha.
