At Divine Life Church of Baltimore one of the spiritual traditions that we honor and learn about is Hinduism.  At the heart of Hinduism is the spiritual philosophy of Advaita Vedanta, commonly translated as Absolute Oneness.
Divine Life Church of Baltimore
Vedanta acknowledges that everything and everyone in the universe is a manifestation of the one divine reality called God and therefore is innately endowed with the nature and qualities of God. The purpose of life is for each person to realize this truth and to unfold and share his or her divine attributes.  By unfolding his divine nature, man regains the consciousness of his spiritual identity.

The Bhagavad Gita, the main scripture of Hinduism, is used frequently in our services to honor the teachings of Krishna, an enlightened being (avatar) like Jesus who lived hundreds of years earlier.  Topics from the Gita such as karma, dharma, divine qualities, devotion, the nature of reality and consciousness, nonattachment, wisdom,  and meditation are presented with a focus on practical application in our daily experience.
