REFORM
MOVEMENT IN HINDUISM |
|
|
| When
the simple Rig Vedic religion was developed in course of time into a
highly complicated labyrinth of sacrifices, there arose the dynamic
sages of the Upanishads condemning it in no uncertain terms and
preaching the direct method of realising the truth through
contemplation and knowledge. This was the first reform movement.
This was further supplemented by the
next movement started by the Gitacharya Sri Krishna who reconciled
the warring groups of his times, who were advocating either action
or knowledge or contemplation or devotion. He provided a place in
his system for everyone of these in such a way that one need not be
in conflict with the others. |
