Hi Mark,
Just to answer the last question, we Hindus generally don't tell other people that 'they need to join our faith in order to progress spiritually. ' We definitely feel happy if someone woth all his/her heart accepts our way of life and the lofty teachings of thousands of years. For us, our faith is obviously 'the correct way'. Otherwise we won't be following it . However, we believe, THE TRUTH 'Brahman' (say it as God)is absolute, and people can reach it by their own way, even atheists may reach there. And there are number of ways to reach there.
Just answered this question to point main difference in Hinduism and many other faiths.
Thy right is to work only, but never with its fruits; let not the fruits of the action be thy motive, nor let thy attachment be to inaction.
