Hinduism developed over time and has no single founder. It involves beliefs in reincarnation, karma, and moksha. People can approach gods through knowledge, discipline or devotion, and often visited shrines or temples. The ultimate goal is to achieve spiritual enlightenment and cease being reborn through removing karma. Hinduism has many gods like Vishnu, Shiva, and Devi that are seen as manifestations of the single divine force Brahman.

Hinduism is a religion, or a way of life, found most notably in India and Nepal. Although Hinduism contains a broad range of philosophies, it is a family of linked religious cultures bound by shared concepts, recognisable rituals, cosmology, shared textual resources, pilgrimage to sacred sites and the questioning of authority.
Web 3.D is the combination of websites and custom manufacturing technology. In the near future (and to some degree now) people will be able to buy physical goods like we buy songs on iTunes now. This technology will put the "Custom" back in customer.
