It consists of "thousands of different religious groups that have evolved in India since 1500 BCE." Hinduism has grown to become the world's third largest religion. It claims about 762 million followers - 13% of the world's population. It is the dominant religion in India, Nepal, and among the Tamils in Sri Lanka. Hinduism is generally regarded as the world's oldest organised religion. Useful Links
