Just for your knowlodge...
The word Hindu came form Hindustan.. all living in Hindustan are Hindus... also Muslims , Christians, Sikhs living in Hindustan are Hindus...... as we are living in Pakistan are Pakistanis..
If you ask your scholars they will tell you the religion you follow is Yehdas.. the word Hindu is a short for Hindustan....
This is no offence for anyone... even if someone from other religion gives me knowlodge about my religion, I will say Thank you to him...

Posted on 9/21/2003 2:17:35 AM

Ya man even some muslims call themselves hindustani....but I don't get it....don't you have to be a hindu living in india to be considered a hindustani? lol

two theories-----
1..the word ' hindustan ' is a misnomer for india..i ll tell ya why....hindustan in hindi when split to hindu and stan ie..hindu ka sthan or place for hindus...which is corse not the case ..indian people more commonlly refer to india in hindi as 'bharat' cause that is more apt name.....hindustan sounds colonial and is against the ideology of our constitution..'hindustan' came along with the mughals who called india that....anyways my point is that india is not just hindustan ..if u know what i mean...but yes we r still reffered to as that by pakistan...and a few stupid hindus who are delibrately 'oblivious' to the fact that india is a secular country and that is a reality that the 99% of people take pride on and the reality that the dont wannna accept and not mention exploit it to their benefit.india is such a melting point for so many cultures..besides hindus ..there are more muslims than pakistan....buddhism originated there and teh dalai lama has made it his home...india houses so many tibbetians u d be amazed...so may people come seekin thedalai lama...mother tereasa was there in the role of a missionary..she was a cult in herself....sikhs are there in abundance.   so that s how life is for most of the people ...we r so used to be lilvin with so many religons and traditions around us...like i said 99% benenfit from it....but there s that faction too in all communities that is not too pleased with all that. india is a place where people from all over the world come seekin spirituality which is of course not the same is religon....for our present and upcomin generation religon is and never would be a criterion for anythig...trust me we have evolved beyond al that ..it s a secular country and thats a relaity and that s how it ll always be ....for the most part it is grrt... people are chillin out there..nobody cares bout it anymore

2.. some percive hinduism as a way of life rather than a religon and thus in the land of free people from a different communities are free to practice their faiths and beliefs and that is the concept of hinduism...so therfore hindustan according to them was coined cause it meant 'the place where this concept of hinduism is practiced.....that is the theory that the bjp government practices that is why it some of it members refer to india as hindustan...which of course is not derogatory for other faiths but is controversial and and subject to debate.

Posted on 9/22/2003 6:12:01 AM

well ... wat shud i say ... i think every body knows dat ,,

Posted on 9/22/2003 8:11:54 AM

well readin the reply i come to know that most of you dont have any knowledge of india and of course hinduism//

first of all the word "HINDU" comes fr the the word "SINDHU",,that is the indus river where the religion started.

when mughals came to india they named it hindustan meaning "home of hindus"

when british came to india they named it india because the indus velley civilization.

the original name of india is "BHARAT" and it came fr the younger brother of lord RAM ---Bharat.

accordin to the 2001 census the population of muslims in india is 30 corores..

and i think the population of pak is 15 coror ...

now these are the facts and facts and nothin but facts

Posted on 9/22/2003 9:59:55 AM

now someone asked that which is the holy book of hindus.

its GEETA..

geeta contains all the summary of all the religious books of hindus.
