How did Brahmanism evolve into Hinduism

Social Studies

shtirl [24]3 years ago

The answer -

Brahmanism is the religion of the Vedic period. Also known as Vedism or Vedic Brahmanism is the historical predecessor of Hinduism.


Its liturgy is reflected in the Mantra portion of the four Vedas, which are compiled in Sanskrit. The religious practices centered on a clergy administering rites that often involved sacrifices. This mode of worship is largely unchanged today within Hinduism; however, only a small fraction of conservative Shrautins continue the tradition of oral recitation of hymns learned solely through the oral tradition.


Elements of Vedic religion reach back into Proto-Indo-European times. The Vedic period is held to have ended around 500 BC, Vedic religion gradually metamorphosizing into the various schools of Hinduism, which further evolved into Puranic Hinduism. Vedic religion also influenced Buddhism and Jainism.

Vedic religion was gradually formalized and concluded into Vedanta, which is the primary institution of Hinduism. Vedanta considers itself the 'essence' of the Vedas. The Vedic pantheon was interpreted by a unitary view of the universe with Brahman seen as immanent and transcendent, since the Middle Upanishads also in personal forms of the deity as Ishvara, Bhagavan, or Paramatma. There are also conservative schools which continue portions of the historical Vedic religion largely unchanged until today.


During the formative centuries of Vedanta, traditions that opposed Vedanta and which supported the same, emerged. These were the nastika and astika respectively.

Hinduism is an umbrella term for astika traditions in India.
- Puranas, Sanskrit epics
- the classical schools of Hindu philosophy, of which only Vedanta is extant.
- Shaivism
- Vaishnavism
- Bhakti
- Shrauta traditions, maintaining much of the original form of the Vedic religion.

Vedic Brahmanism of Iron Age India co-existed and closely interacted with the non-Vedic (nastika) Shramana traditions. These were not direct outgrowths of Vedism, but separate movements influenced by Brahmanical traditions.

When you find both a solid and a broken yellow line between opposing lanes of traffic, you must NOT pass. True or false?
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

if the solid yellow line is on your side.

Explanation:

Yellow lines painted in the center of a road indicate that traffic on that road is two-way, that is, on that stay the cars drive in both directions of direction, each direction on one side of the lines. You may have noticed that sometimes these lines are broken and sometimes the lines are solid, and sometimes the road has a broken line next to a solid line. What does this mean? Well, when the road has two broken lines it means that cars on both sides can move to the opposite lane. If both lines are solid, it is forbidden for any car to pass to the opposite lane.

If the road has a solid line and a broken line, it is only allowed to pass to the next lane, the car on the side of the broken line, the car on the side of the solid line cannot pass.
