Hinduism contains a range of philosophies.
 Scholars regard Hinduism as a synthesis of various Indian cultures and traditions, with diverse roots and no single founder
 Prominent themes in Hindu beliefs include the four Pururthas, the proper goals or aims of human life; namely, dharma (ethics/duties), artha (prosperity/work), kama (desires/passions) and moksha (liberation/freedom from the passions and the cycle of death and rebirth), as well as karma (action, intent and consequences) and sasra (cycle of death and rebirth)
