Namaste,
I am new here, and interested about hinduism. First off, i want to mention that I am a 18 year old male, and for the past 4 years, i have been a tantric buddhist - that is, a "vajrayana" buddhist. I have been doing the preliminaries for tantra. However, i have felt that the LOVE of Buddha dharma has been lost in rules, vows, and other such things, and not so much on LOVE and doing things out of LOVE.... in short, it became work.
So now, i am looking at hinduism, and i have read "The complete idiots guide to hinduism" written by an american hindu. It has been a basic read, and very good, easy to read, and insightful. However, i am not sure how to exactly PRACTICE hinduism, and what to do.. what prayers, what mantras, and so on... I will go at my own speed, and with LOVE...
So, in short, i guess I am asking for... a little more advanced info on HINDUISM - SANATA DHARMA, and how to PRACTICE Hinduism... I also have a copy of the GITA and am going through that slowly, to understand...
It is not that i am POOR student in my former class, i just do not feel the same way anymore, and seeing as Hindus are very open minded, i can still hold faith in Padmasambhava, and avalokiteshvara, and so on...
thank you all!
