Religion is the greatest need of human nature. Just as the body needs food to sustain itself and the mind knowledge to develop, the soul needs mystical-philosophical-religious experience for its perfection. In this brief analysis, Hinduism, one of the greatest ancestral religions, born in the foothills of the Himalayas, India, more than 10,000 years ago will be discussed, and a brief analysis will be made of these very rich philosophical-spiritual bases that have influenced and continue to influence profoundly. the faith of humanity.
