Hinduism, known as Sanatana Dharma (everlasting religion/truth/rule) to practitioners, was founded in India, where it is still practiced by eighty percent of the people. It is more than a religion in the Western sense. It is also a way of life. Man is limited, but the Supreme Being isn't. Because of our inability to comprehend the infinite, we may look upon Hinduism as polytheistic, but, according to Sunil Balasubramaniam, "Hinduism worships multiple forms of the one God."
