Why Hinduism is not a way of life?

Hinduism is the only religion that is not a way of life.

Most of the other religions have a prescribed set of rules to follow which is clearly written in their holy books, be it the Bible, Quran, or the old testament.

You can identify a Muslim or a Christian or a Jew by the way they lead their life irrespective of which part of the world they live in. They all celebrate the same festivals or follow the same methodology of praying.

Whereas, a Hindu living in the same town might pray to a different God and celebrate different festivals and follow different food habits. Hinduism is the only religion to not have any rules telling you how to lead your life. There are no holy books pertaining to this.

You can never identify a Hindu by his lifestyle whereas you can identify the believers of all the other religions by the lifestyle they follow. All the other religions follow a particular way of life. To conclude, all the other religions are a way of life whereas, Hinduism is not a way of life.
