When I was born my parents named me Neha which means loving. My people believe that the moment you are born you are created perfect, but the second after you begin to die.  When I was born my father dipped a golden pen in honey and wrote this symbol The symbol stands for truth, in hopes that I would always speak the truth which is as sweet as honey.  After that my first time ever outside was to a temple, and the first time I was fed solid food was cooked rice.  My parents also preformed a ritual when I had to shave my head, and we offered it to a deity. There was also an ear piercing ceremony for me.
Today in school, I learned about the origins of Hinduism. Unlike other religions, there isn’t one founder or spreader of Hinduism. Instead, the ancient people of the Indus Valley formed beliefs about the world around them. When the Aryan nomads arrived, their beliefs combined with the beliefs of the Indus Valley. Eventually, Hinduism began to form.  http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-50915185/stock-photo-indian-village-school-girl.html
With the Aryans came the holy book, the Vedas. It is considered the oldest writing in the world. The Vedas is made up of the Rig-Veda, the Yajur Veda, the Sama-Veda, and the Atharva-Veda. A long time ago, the Vedas was spread just through speaking. Eventually, it was written down in Sanskrit, the Hindu language that the Aryans formed.  “ The man who is truly generous gives to the beggar who approaches him and in search of food. He puts himself at the service of the man who calls to him from the road, and makes him a friend for times to come.” - Rig-Veda 10.117 http://antiquatis.org/comment/40

[object Object],Today my grandmother died. We burned her body in the fire of our god Agni to releaser her soul. Hopefully she won’t be reincarnated so she can pass the circle of life and reach Nirvana (real reality which is where the gods are). After we burned her body we released it into the Ganges river, and we had to walk away without ever looking back.  The reason that we burn our bodies is so we can release the soul from the body. That is also the reason why we don’t eat meat. The meat is not burned therefore the essence of that animals soul is still in its body. The last emotion it felt was pain and fright. We should never have the essence of that kind of soul inside of our body.
