Hinduism Poem by umaprosad das

We often boast of our religion and respond blindly in fanaticism
Without knowing and following the religion, its sermons, or idealism
By birth, I'm a Hindu, but don't know about the greatness of Hinduism
Neither, do I learn, nor practice the Vedic instructions or characterization

At least I have to follow the basic principles to introduce myself as a Hindu
My characteristics and behaviors should help me to identify self fits to
Hinduism prescribes some eternal duties, we should know and practice
Honesty, non-violence, patience, virtue, compassion, self-restraint, justice

The main theme of Hindu beliefs are kama, dharma, mokhsa and artha
Passions, duties, liberation, and work; till alive, abide by the Purusartha
Does anybody escape these four Purusarthas; it seems nobody denies
Though I take moksha in a limited sense, i.e. death, does sure arise

‘Beyond the life cycle of death and rebirth, ' I don't have any conception
The religions say, beyond it, when no rebirths happen, comes liberation
Hindu Religion is considered the oldest, Sanatana, from the prehistoric age
The Epics were, God's voices only, written by no human writer or sage
