Hinduism

In the last class we talked about the different type of yoga there was. The four types were reflective yoga (jnana), emotional yoga (bhakti) , action yoga (karma), and risk takers yoga (raja). The majority of the class emotional yoga also known as jnana yoga. Hinduism is a very large spread religion. In fact it is one of the larges religions in the world. I think I am more of the Karma yoga. Yoga is a way that helps Hindu people manage certain situations. Although I am a Catholic I don’t believe in all the things that they do but I feel that is religion is very open to other religions. The people that practice this religion seem to be more laid back and they appear to handle some circumstances better. I know a girl that practices Hinduism and she very easy going and solely turns to her beliefs when ever something doesn’t go the way she expected. But the best part is she never blames anything or anybody for something going wrong she simply says she’ll do it better next time. I find that to be amazing and nearly impossible for me. I defiantly look up to her in that manner.
