1
WHY HINDUISM IS KNOWN AS THE SCIENTIFIC RELIGION

• By ISKCON DWARKA

Hinduism is a religion which is based on facts.
Like other religions, there are no rules and
guidelines to follow. It is a religion of peace.
The major scriptures of Hinduism are Vedas. There
are 4 Vedas and 108 Upanishads in Hinduism.
According to Hinduism, the main aim of human life
are Dharma, Karma, Kama, Moksha and Yogas. It is
also known as scientific religion because its
practices and rituals are deeply rooted in
science. Many science theories which we are
studying today are already mentioned in Hinduism.

• Similarities Between Modern and Vedic Science

• Universe have Several Existences
• Einsteins Theory of Relativity
• Resemblance to Einsteins Experiment

• Universe have Several Existences

In one of the article, physicist Roger Penrose
suggested that the Big Bang's just one cycle
among such events which proves that universe had
several existences. This supports the Vedic
philosophy that clearly indicates that the
universe had several births and deaths.

• Einsteins Theory of Relativity

Einstein is associated with the origin of Theory
of Relativity. But, one might be surprised to
know that most of these statements resemble the
Puranic texts. His theory popularly known as
twin paradox suggests that when a pair of twins
goes to outer space, the other pair stays on
earth. It is said that when the traveling twin
returns, it will be younger than the other pair.
These passages resemble versus from Bhagavat
Purana which communicate the relativity of time.

• Resemblance to Einsteins Experiment

There is another tale from Puranas that resembles
Einsteins experiment. A yogi, after exalting
himself to higher realms from the earthly realm
was told by the residents of the higher realm
that it has been millions of years on our planet
in few moments from the time he entered the
higher realm.  He was also told that all his
relatives and people he had known were deceased.
 This was indeed the reference of relativity of
time.

• SCIENCES CONGRUENT WITH VEDIC TEXTS

There are many disciplines described in the Vedas
such as Vedic mathematics and Yoga that are a
science in themselves. While Vedic mathematics
suggests the way to solve the problems related to
various corollaries of modern arithmetic in few
seconds, Yoga is an extremely scientific way to
combat stress and to get fit.
