An Analysis of Historic Religious Transformation in Hinduism.
This paper will show the history of the Hindu religion from the Brahmanistic period to the period that is so famously known as the Bhagavad Gita. By understanding the change in the Vedic position on the nature of Hindu belief, we can see how this history transforms over different periods of time. With a basic overview of the Hindu religion in this manner, we can learn how the secretive Brahmans eventually turned into a different strand of belief that became all-inclusive in the teachings of Krishna, which is espoused in the classic religious doctrine of the Bhagavad Gita. In essence, we will study the fall of the violent gods of the older Vedic orders, and seek to understand how they took more peaceful principles.
