An example from the upanishads to describe how a person unites with brahman?
"Brahma Veda Brahmaiva Bhavati" Mandukya Upanishad. One who knows Brahman, becomes Brahman. Many upanishads maintain that there is only one entity in the universe constituting galaxies, stars, planets, animals, humans, vegetation, and non-living things. Nothing other than that exists. So humans too are Brahman. The difference is in realizing this. One who realizes, sees that he/she him/herself is none other than Brahman.
Does Hinduism m get along with other religions?
In short, yes. Hindus believe that there is one true god, universal spirit or ultimate reality known as Brahman. Everything is a part of Brahman. They believe that the many different sides, personalities or aspects of Brahman are represented by the many vibrant deities of their faith. Furthermore, the worship of any god or diety is seen as a your own, personal way of connecting with Brahman, and is just as valid as any other way of connecting with Brahman. This makes it very tolerant of other religions, far more so than most other prominent world faiths.
What main god do hindus believe in?
Brahman and Ishvara The answer differs with different people. Many would accept the trinity (Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva; as also the Mother Goddess Durga). Many would say there are many Gods (Ganesha, Hanuman, Kartikeya, and Goddesses, Saraswati). Hinduism is not a monolithic religion. Any one view is not complete hinduism. You are presenting the philosophy of Adi Sankaracharya, which I too follow. But Ishvara exists only in 'pragmatic reality' (Vyavaharika) and not in 'absolute reality' (Parmarthika). Why should I settle for less? So, I do not accept existence of Ishvara. Now, one cannot define Brahman. I too am none other than Brahman (So Aham), you too are Brahman (Tat twam asi). I do not consider myself to be God, do you? Even a grain of sand is Brahman. Therefore, Brahman is not God.

Voluntary (Manual) force2. Involuntary (Automatic) force.To understand Brahman we must attain Moksha. In this state we would have just pure voluntary force (Nirguna Brahman) and pure Involuntary force (Saguna Brahman)Nirguna Brahman:It is called Nirguna Brahman because it is a state at which we don't feel anything or think about anything.1. It is static Brahman or Brahman at rest2. It is pure Voluntary force3. There is no time sense4. Though there is absolute ability to change there is nothing that needs change5. This Brahman is just the exact opposite of omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient Saguna Brahman.Saguna Brahman:This is the Brahman we can feel and think about instinctively.1. This is Brahman at activity.2. It is pure Involuntary force.3. There is absolute time sense and time is eternal4.
