The term &#039;&#039;Hinduism&#039;&#039; is [[heterogeneous]], as Hinduism consists of several schools of thought. It encompasses many religious rituals that widely vary in practice, as well as many diverse sects and philosophies. Many [[Hindu]]s, influenced by [[Advaita]] philosophy, venerate an array of deities, considering them manifestations of the one supreme [[monistic]] Cosmic Spirit, &#039;&#039;[[Brahman]]&#039;&#039;, while many others focus on a singular concept of Brahman (God), as in [[Vaishnavism]], [[Saivism]] and [[Shaktism]].<br /> <br /> Hinduism is the [[Major world religions|third largest religion]] in the world, with approximately 900 million adherents ([[2005]] figure), of whom approximately 890 million live in [[India]]. It is also the oldest known [[religion]] in the world today. Unlike many other religions, Hinduism has no main founder, and no main holy city. It also has no single holy book &amp;mdash; its original scriptures were the four &#039;&#039;[[Veda]]s&#039;&#039;, but as time has passed, many other scriptures have also emerged.
