What do the Hindu's think of the human rights?
Hindus, more precisely people of Sanatan Dharma, the religion that has existed since time immemorial , believe that each and every living and nonliving entity in this universe is created out of the SUPREME ENERGY. Shrimad Bhagwad Gita, song of the Lord (Krishna), beautifully explains the entire universal order and laws.
Equality, in Hinduism, is the most fundamental truth. Equality not just amongst humans but animals and non living forms too. For a Hindu, every thing his eyes perceive, everything his ears hear, every moment he breathes is devotion to the SUPREME ENERGY, Supreme LORD !!
Ahimsa (nonviolence) naturally therefore stems from this core principle of equality. Vegetarianism , nature protection and conservation , equality in different ways of worshipping the Supreme Lord Krishna (under different names and forms ) are therefore results of the core value EQUALITY !
Thanking the soul (energy form from the Supreme Energy) who asked this question, hope this effort helps understand Supreme , All compassionate Divine Lord and his creations better !
