Hinduism has affected life in India because the Caste System has given each group a job to do. For example, the Kshatriyas are warriors. Therefor, their job is to fight the demons and to protect the country from invaders. The Brahmin's job is to teach. They have to teach people the origins and teachings of Hinduism. For example they have to recite over 100,000 verses from the Vedas! This caste system has influenced life in India tremendously!

∙ 11y agoI think that Hinduism influences simplicity, self-sufficiency and a desire to lead a less material life if it is practiced. Attraction to material wealth is shunned. One may also think of Gandhi and the non-violence he espoused. Practicing this religion means the person has a deep respect for life and will be unlikely to fight aggression with aggression. So in regions where there is a predominance of Hinduism being practiced
there seems to be similar attitude towards towards controlling material wealth. simple living and non-violence
There is an additional sense of rebirth, or reincarnation among practitioners I believe, that the human
being will come back in another form once this life has been completed. If one leads a good life there
is the reward of going to"heaven". Society where Hinduism is practiced probably influences those who
wish to be more devoted to the Almighty and seek favor from him so as to avoid being punished
in the afterlife.

Are some beliefs or cognitions too sacred for psychologists to challenge?
As long as those beliefs are working out for the person's life, then there is no problem. However, when there is not a congruence between the belief and the life the person leads, the subject needs to be brought up and examined. Psychologists are trained to help people understand the effect of beliefs and to help them discover how to adapt.. It is more like a civil discussion than a parent telling someone what to do.
