What is the foundation of Hinduism?

Atman
The Tao
Allah
The Bible

The correct answer is: Atman

Hinduism is a complex religion with various philosophies and beliefs, but at its core, Hinduism is based on the concept of Atman. Atman refers to the individual soul or self, which is believed to be a part of the universal and eternal soul, Brahman. Atman is the ultimate goal of Hindu spiritual practices, as individuals strive to achieve a state of self-realization and reunite with Brahman. Options B, C, and D do not align with Hindu beliefs and are therefore incorrect. The Tao is a concept in Chinese philosophy, Allah is the God of Islam, and the Bible is the sacred text of Christianity.
