Description

Hindus perform different types of activities daily to create or experience good in the world, to develop a personal relationship with or earn the favor of their chosen deity, and ultimately, to be liberated from the cycle of rebirth. Hindu daily practices broadly concern ethics, knowledge, and devotion and may vary according to one’s region, gender, conceptions of duty, sectarian tradition, and preferences of the deity being propitiated.
