If Wikipedia were the guide, ‘the Hindu religion has no one prophet; doesn’t proclaim any one god; doesn’t lay strict dogma nor any sole philosophic concept; it does not follow any one set of religious rites or performances; in fact, it does not appear to satisfy the narrow traditional features of any religion or creed. It may broadly be described as a way of life and nothing more’.
Dravidians have made major contributions to the development of Hinduism in South India. Pancha Dravida consisting of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra, Gujarat and Maharashtra have been a birthplace of many Hindu saints. Temple located in Tamil Nadu with their brightly painted sculptures and gopuram dominate in South India. There are many famous temples like Lord Venkateshwar Temple in Tirupati, Meenakshi Temple in Madurai, Ranganathaswamy Temple in Rameshwaram, Nataraj Temple in Chidambaram, Arunachaleshwar Temple in Tiruvannamalai and many more.
