Hindu
Hindu traditions of yoga, devotion, and philosophy — from temple ritual to meditation lineages worldwide.
Hinduism encompasses diverse practices and philosophies — temple pūjā, bhakti devotion, yoga and meditation, Vedānta, Tantra, and more — oriented around dharma, liberation (mokṣa), and relationship with the sacred. There is no single founder or creed; living lineages and local temples carry the tradition.
On Dharma Atlas, Hindu listings include ashrams, temples, and teachers spanning classical and modern movements. Related pages such as Advaita Vedānta go deeper into specific schools.
