The Hindu race is the oldest existing race in the world and so also is its spiritual ideology. The scientific view of man and the world based on experiential and verifiable truths as found in Hinduism makes Hindu ideology eternal and universal and also non-dogmatic and non-fanatic, unlike the Semitic faiths. This ideology is referred to as Sanatana (Eternal) Dharma or Hindu Dharma. For ages it has withstood the harsh vicissitudes of time in the form of attacks from foreign faiths, especially the Semitic ones. But owing to the rock solid foundation of its scientific ideology (spirituality), Hindu Dharma and the Hindu race have remained and will remain in the history with undimmed glory.
