    Why do Hindus and Jews get along great

    Why do Hindus and Jews get along great

    Yes, this is the concept of Brahman. All the deities and gods are but manifestation of the one supreme Being Brahman, and symbolise the attributes of Brahman. Hinduism is basically monistic, though I have no problems with polytheistic sects or religions worshipping the divine in their own...
