About Hinduism
GoConqr OriginalWhat this unit covers
The page mixes several kinds of material. The quizzes work through the Bhagavad Gita chapter by chapter, for example Bhagavad Gita Chapter 2, which asks how Arjuna resolves his confusion about whether to fight, and Bhagavad Gita - Chapter 15, which begins with the imperishable banyan tree. Others look at faith, knowledge and divine qualities in the later chapters.
Beliefs and practice in the mind maps
The mind maps are the largest group. Hinduism - Year 9 introduces Brahman as the Supreme Spirit seen in many forms, often shown by the symbol of Om. AS Level - Hinduism - WJEC compares henotheism, monotheism, monism and polytheism. Further maps cover Shiva, Krishna, Rama, Shakti, Devi Durga, rites of passage, worship, holy places in India and several on end of life and life after death.
Where to start
- Try the Hinduism Quiz, which opens with the meaning of Sanatana dharma.
- Read a broad map such as Hindu Beliefs.
- Use the notes on karma, samsara, ahimsa and the ashramas to fill gaps.
- Move to the Gita chapter quizzes for closer reading of the text.
- Finish with flashcards such as Hinduism GCSE R.E Flashcards and the slide set on key beliefs exam questions.
Using quizzes and maps together
Read a map first, then take a quiz on the same idea. Any question you miss shows what to revisit. Flashcards suit key terms, such as the decks of Hinduism keywords and definitions, and are quick to repeat. The resources mention GCSE Religious Studies, A-level Religious Studies and GCSE Religious Education, so check which one matches your course.
Where it fits
This unit sits in the Other World Faiths strand of Religion and theology. Open a resource, try a quiz, and then make a map or deck of your own to keep your revision in one place.
Frequently asked questions
Which resource should I start with?
Start with the Hinduism Quiz, which begins with what Sanatana dharma means. Then look at the Hindu Beliefs mind map for the main ideas. If you are revising for GCSE, the Hinduism GCSE R.E Flashcards deck is a quick way to check key terms.
What do the mind maps cover?
They cover beliefs about God and Brahman, deities such as Shiva, Krishna, Rama, Shakti and Devi Durga, worship, rites of passage and holy places in India. Several also deal with end of life, body and soul, and life after death.
Are there Bhagavad Gita quizzes?
Yes. There are quizzes for many Gita chapters, including chapters 2, 4 and 5, 9, 13, 15, 16 and 17, plus a Dhyana Yoga quiz on chapter 6. They quote verses from the text alongside each question, so you can check answers against the passage.
Which exams do these resources suit?
The listed resources mention GCSE Religious Studies, A-level Religious Studies and GCSE Religious Education. Most of the material is aimed at secondary students, so it suits school revision well. Check your own specification to see which topics you need.
Are the resources free, and who made them?
Every resource here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you create your own quizzes, maps, flashcards and notes.
What if I can't find a topic I need?
Try the notes on karma, samsara, caste, ahimsa, the purusharthas, the gunas and the ashramas, or search the flashcard decks on Vedanta and yoga. If a topic is still missing, you can make your own mind map or flashcards for it.
