The Harappa civilization, Maya civilization of Mexico, pyramid era of Egypt and there heritage thrived between 10,000 B.C. to 6000 B.C. Due to some natural calamity those civilization got vanished.
From 5000 B.C. onward sindh civilization and its culture led to the beginning of a new civilization, which is called RUKVEDIC ERA. During that time, VEDA was written which was based on YAGNA and penance. It is called a knowledge gifted by God.
From 3000 B.C to 1200 B.C, philosophical thesis came to the existence where pious knowledge of truth in place of yagna & penance became the medium for achieving salvation. During this time 6 philosophies were scripted.

Hinduism is based on the above six.
Between 1200 B.C to 700 B.C, Ramayan, Mahabharat were scripted. Mahabharat is based on Vedant philosophy. This period gave modernity to the VEDAS.
Religious era-6th century B.C was the era of religious revolution. In Iran Saint Jarathustra went against the blind faith and its recognition, and put a mission on new philosophies. In Europe and in Arabian countries HIRACLIPTUS and PITHOGORAS put forward some new revolutionary philosophy. In India many saints showed up who went against the old beliefs to bring forward new ones. They spread new ideas and philosophies among the people. Till then, already 68 types of races or beliefs had come into existence.
The Jainism is considered to be existing from 2000 B.C. In 600 BC, the Jain religion took the present form. According to some people after VEDA, other religion like Jainism , jews , and islam(kuran) got developed one after another mahavir is from 600 B.C. The Jainism became famous during the period of Mahavir only. Mahavir was not believer of God , but he used to believe in the regularity of creation, existence of soul, karm(Deeds) and re-incarnation. In 400 B.C. the got divided into two communities – one is DIGAMBER and the other one is SWETAMBER.
CHRISTIANITY became famous 2006 years back, from now. Hindus, Christians and Muslims believe in the existence of God, and consider him to be the creator, guardian and the director of this creation.
In 623 B.C, Gautam Buddha was born in KapilVastu, a place at the base of Himalaya. He is the father of Buddhism. Buddha didn’t acknowledge the existence of God. According to him, no creator is required for this creation, hence the world is functioned by its ‘nature’. Like that is the opinion of Mahavir. According to him – the creation is functioned by the reaction between the living and non-living beings. Mahavir believed in soul and its reincarnation. Buddha used to believe in reincarnation but he used to deny the existence of soul. He didn’t get into the controversy of Soul – Prime Soul. He focused much on the search of remedies of miseries and its eradication. According to him a man doesn’t get rebirth when he becomes free from sins (misdeeds). The deeds are connected to the body, speech, mentality and the efforts. The life of a man in the other world is decided by his deeds. Man has to suffer for his own deeds. According to him (Buddha) – as the lamp get extinguished with the total reduction of the filament along with the oil, like that man gets free from the tentacles of life with the total eradication of his own desires and arrogance, which is called a salvation. Man can achieve salvation during his living period also.
Close to 200 B.C. some mythologies were written, and some were written after that. In those, the excerpts based on the arrangements like financial, religious, political and social were made by the kings of those periods. Vishnnu Puran, Skandh Puran, and Bhagvat Puran became more famous. In Vishnu Puran the history of Maurya generation is projected. In Matsya Puran the history of Anddhra generation is depicted. In Bayu Puran the Gupt dynasty and Chandragupt – I hve been mentioned about. The number of mythologies are 18. mythologies are rectified from time to time. The modern version of mythologies were published during the time of ‘Gupt’.
For last 2006 years, after Jesus, Mohammed Sahib and God / devotees like – Jhulelal, Kabir, Nanak, mira and many others came into the lime light. They kept alive the old traditions. And, at the same time they brought changes into the society considering the present situation. Taking from then till now, there is nothing more than prayers and preaching. The philosophy and wisdom have been hidden in the stories and excerpts.
In the name of religion what you don’t do ? From prayer to fasting; From portrait worship to Idol worship, we do every thing. Why ? Rowing a boat in the ocean of sin – virtues and good deeds – bad deeds we have reached to the middle of it. We are confused now. We are unable to understand how much more adversity we are going to face with ? who will save us; when God is not listening to us ? Think it yourself. Without analyzing don’t come to any decision.
