No entry please. Since for over 600 years; Mosolmans and British times till now the present day, only Hindus are being converted to Islam or Christianity or some other religion. Faith in Hinduism and adopting names and traditions will make one similar to Hindu but, frankly talking, there is no provision or sanction to others to get convert in to Hinduism, without born in any of the 4 casts.

It is really a simple and fabulous thing that still Hindus survive irrespective of force conversions during Mughal and technical conversions in British regime. You will find out that out of 4 castes the 1st caste is lesser than 3% of the population of India, starves in poverty yet respected by the others. It is some what typical and unexplainable phenomenon in Hinduism.

At the same time there is no closure of doors who want to visit like a tourist the Hindu system of Life yet the visitor is a visitor and never a native.

There is nothing called converting to Hinduism. If you are convinced that Hinduism is what you intend to practise, start following Sanatana Dharma. Remember, Hinduism is not a religion, it is a way of life. Followers of any religion believes in Sanatana Dharma, they can follow their own religion and can still be consiedered Hindu if they belieive and adhere to Sanatana Dharma. There are no rituals associated to get converted to Hinduism. There are no hymns or slokas that will be chanted to convert others into Hinduism. You like it, you follow it. Hope this answers the question.

If we accept the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, as I believe we should, then yes. Christians, Muslims and people of all religions are free to convert to Hinduism if they wish, and the reverse. Article 18 says:"Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance."

Like Christianity there are many schools and sects of Buddhism - all with the same base message but each having their own twist. The implication is that you will be happier with some groups than others, some groups may be more traditional than others, some groups may be "Buddhism-lite", and some may not want you. This means that "converting" to Buddhism can be approached in several different ways:

  • Read up on Buddhism and adopt those parts you like and ignore those parts that don't work for you.
  • Approach friends who are Buddhists and ask how it works for them, see if their group fits you.
  • Approach one or more local temples or congregations and ask

To my information, the word Hinduism is extracted from the river Indus (Hindu in sanskrit). It is believed that Hinduism is a name of a civilization, not a religion. Whatever the people of the river bank of Indus had practiced in their day to day life is simply named as Hinduism. Accordingly, is it logic to convert from a religion (say Islam) to Hindu civilization? If you like the practices of Hinduism then simply follow these practices, in what not forbidden in your religion, without need to convert from your own religion.

Christians don't convert away to other religions because they don't want to leave the path of God and salvation, and they want to go heaven.
