What's so interesting about it?

Esoteric Hitlerism! SIEG HIEL!

Hinduism. Hands down.
With the inclusion of the vedas of course

Sry, English Google calls them towers of silence but the actual word in Sumerian is also synonymous for death
>>
>>18991382
Sumerian is Salem. That's what Abraham was taught. Moses is deeper than sumerian

>4 Vedas
>108 Upanishads
>18 Puranas
>Ramayana
>Mahabharata/Bhagavad-Gita
>Tevaram Saivite Hymns
>Divya Prabandha Vaishnavite Hymns
>Brahma Sutras
>Vedanta Sutras

And this isn't even getting into the writings of the acaryas:
>Yoga Sutras by Patanjali
>the Bhasyas (commentaries) by Adi Shankara, Madhavacarya, and other founders of disciplic lines

Not to speak of local tales and legends. You could probably add the Panchatantra in there as well, though that's more cultural fable than religious lore.

>>18991789
Brahman, vedas, and upanishads are different religions that the Brahman adopted into their own.
>>
>>18991928
All fall under the "Hinduism" umbrella term tho
>>
>>18991944
But that's like counting every andean religion as it was one, and there's one for every race.
>>
>>18991944
Hinduism is a recent term. Hindus don't call it Hinduism and they see them as distinct beliefs
>>
>>18991986
Weird. All the Hindus I know call it Hinduism.
Although the term itself was coined by mudslime invaders

>Which religion has the deepest LORE?

Christianity, since no matter what their book says, they have always 100000 million excuses to explain their behaviour that surely come from their god of lies and excuses.

>>18992895

That's more like Judaism.

Transhumanism is considered a religion somehow, and it actually isn't.

Hinduism.
>>
>>18992910
The concept of ascending the limits of your body is a very religious one. Transhumanism just seeks to do it via applications of science and not the supernatural.
>>
>>18991928
>Brahman
This is a term, not a religion. Did you mean Smarta Brahmanas?
>vedas
This is a word meaning knowledge. The Vedas are books utilized/referenced by almost every Hindu religion.
>upanishads
Are literally commentaries on the Vedas to elucidate the underlying philosophy of the rituals and mantras in the Vedas.

Yes, there are multiple religions within Hinduism. Yes, Hinduism STILL has deeper lore than the Abrahamic religions, the religions of the Eddas, the Hellenistic religions, or any other religious "family."

It's a toss up between Hinduism and Jainism. Hinduism is a lot more `funky` though as most of the backstory around Jainism is a little more dry so to speak. Jainism may conceivably predate Hinduism however that is speculation that can probably never be proven. Both have their origins in prehistory though. In general then India certainly has the most authentic `transmission systems ` eg. techniques for achieving God Realisation. The real hardcore dudes, eg for example. the `Himalayan Baba's ` and whatnot would probably laugh at you if you tried to pin the label `Hindu ` on them as they are just using techniques which they have been developing and learning over many lifetimes.

but delicious

budhism. within it it briefly mentions other realms of existence and some pitfalls of them. there is one vaguely described kinda like greek mythology with many gods and they fight amongst themselves

also you have the hells which would be a transitional state of being between existences. meant to strip away the ego and leave only the id. the you that drives you to be you survives but your personal attachment to the you that sits there reading this dies

"Excarnation" may possibly be the most metal word I have ever learned.

Such deep lore, such trippy shit, nobody can agree on what's a part of it.
>>
>>18991361
Old daoism, the original, the one before mixing with acestor worshipping and shit. In many things, it ressembles our current understanding of physics.
>>
No one's going to say Judaism?

Have you fuckers even read the Midrash?

I know, but it's much more than a faith.
