Before the invention of printing press, Indian Scriptures were not available easily,so scholars speculated and various school of toughs emerged with their explanation of God. For reasons of livelihood, Priests branded their folks as Vaishnava, Shaivait, in sampradayas, dualism, monism etc. to prevent them from going to other camps. These variations did help people to adopt holistic lifestyle but were unable to provide insight into Hindu religion.
After the invention of telescope and microscope people came to know about the vastness of the Universe and the intricacies of living cells. The religion became a subject matter of knowledge and science and the philosophical thoughts became confined to social aspects. In present scenario The modern Hindu generation is now interested in study of engineering and medicine rather than philosophy.
Should some body wants to know Hinduism it is wiser to study Indian Scriptures that are authentic and discard philosophical speculations.
